[ ...At The Corner Of Mulberry And 44 ]

Title Text: As per usual, I felt like drawing some adorable kangaroos again

Roosevelt is super-adorbs, as always, and Bruce is also cute. I'll bet you're now thinking about them snuggling.

Also, 44 is my favorite number and I like the word "Mulberry."

I'm actually thinking of seeing how many characters they can dwarf over, even kids. =3

That kid should go see Hans Moleman.

It'll need a catchy name, though

B-roo-ce and Roo-sevelt's Excellent Zoo Adventures

Roo'd Awakenings

Rooful Thoughts

Also Dissension lied and now, by law, must buy each and every one of us who clicked on that link our own personal kangaroo to snuggle. ;)
e_e... I'm judging you because of those first two statements, but I have to agree on you with the kangaroo snuggle thing :)

Whoa, he... really had a knife. Didn't see that on the first read.

.....Which leads me to ask, what the heck happened in Crocodile Dundee?

There's always a flamin' little Larrikin lout
wants to try an' act that flamin' scene out.
It causes us Aussies all kindsa anger an' strife -
Like Paul did within the automobile all else in his life.

The little Drongos never hearda Charlie & Boots
or Flipper, Anzacs or any of the other fruits
of his talents. The kids just want the scene with the knife
They dunno I never seen one so big in me life!

How'd Mick get that muffins and cookies thing pace I.C.E?
It ain't like the ripper could hide the device.
Just proves their security is bad as ours here....
Security only gets it right a few times a year.
But still, considerin' all an' with it all bein' said...
I like it here. With vegemite, gogglebox, beau and bed.

And, for those who don't know where the title may have come from, here's the seminal work 'Down under/Land down under' by Men at Work. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x24aux ... nder_music. (Edit - found one with an info track.)

Click here to snuggle with kangaroos? All right! :)

Oh. You meant to discuss the comic about awesome roos. Then I guess I'll just leave...

Well, since they're living in the cooler weather of Colorado rather than, say, New South Wales or Queensland, they do have rather fluffy coats...

Yuppers, and we had a Mulberry Road in my old home town.

Best thing about living in the zoo (well, besides all the Vegemite you can stand) is having Security just a good Roo-bellow away. Hmm... why does G'day Bruce look a little like King making a fuss? Must be the pointy ears -- and the big mouth...

I assume you live in Australia? I can't see any way they could be that specific otherwise...

Funny how that scene may be expected, I mean it wouldn't look good if Bruce does show the kid an actual knife. Come to think of it, does the kid even know they have a knife?

So we find out that both Paul Hogan and Vegimite (TM) exist in the Housepets universe. Wonder which is more frightening?

Vegemite. Like Marmite, it scares millions and Paul Hogan doesn't.

Bruce is looking a bit pudgy to me... he needs to lay off the vegemite! :roll:

I did that scene once! Except I pulled out a katana instead! :twisted: It was plastic and everything!

What does the sign on that building in panel One say? Something Down Under..... _______ Down Under anyway. :?

Yeah, the kangaroos are cool! There hasn't really been anything erotic between them, though, so I think you're looking for the term "homoromantic."
