#gary tales

I always think of this comic strip I did (in 2005!) whenever I see that my friends back in New England are enduring another blizzard while I’m safe and snow-free in Florida.

I created Tulsa’s grandmother’s helpful rhyme, but sadly it never caught on.

“Mucus clear, never fear

Mucus green, cough up your spleen

Mucus yellow? One sick fellow

But if your phlegm is brown or red–say your prayers, you’re almost dead”
