Attacking trees, what's not to love?

"Good Gravy" and "aye Carumba" really need resurgence in exclamatory text.

Could you please identify the etymology of "Carumba"? Did it derive from early ninja, of the turtle variety?

I believe it was invented by one B. Simpson.

DaNae said...

Ah yes, Mr. Simpson, an undisputed scholar of the English lexicon.

I really am liking the bigger pictures... And the "Are you seeing this?" frame really reminds me of your Rapunzel drawings. (Seriously I have read that book a zillion times-- LOVE it-- thank you, thank you, thank you for making it!!)

Thanks Anonymous--I think the large size adds a lot.

I'm surprised nobody's called "Beanstalk" yet, speaking of Rapunzel--this space tree's pretty similar to several high speed plants from the 'Punzie-verse.
