It's another Garfield! This one has a turkey in it. You like that, right? How about human adults carrying silverware as around on their shoulder like prospecting implements? That's right up your alley, no? Eh, whatever. Like I said, it's a Garfield.

In retrospect, I would like to amend (read: change completely) my comments about how recording a daily Garfield recap podcast is akin to the phenomenon in Go of being 'in atari.' Now that I really think about it, this podcast is far, far more reminiscent of the phenomenon in Go of being 'in seki'.
