Transcript:

A few years ago, the Citizen-Journal in Columbus, Ohio, made a slight mistake regarding which Far Side caption went with which cartoon.

The caption for the “slug” cartoon, depicting a mass of slugs worshiping their “god” and chanting some nonsensical intonation, was repeated the following day with the “tree house” cartoon. Instead of the version shown in the upper left corner, what Columbus readers saw was the cartoon at left.

And how many letters did I have forwarded to me asking for an explanation? Don’t ask.

Thank you for posting these, love seeing them daily
