The Dregs #53

I know it's been a while since Dregs episode, so I hope this one makes up for the time. In my defense, I've been pretty busy. For instance, you can now buy my book(let), Not Just A Coaster on Lulu.com! I've been needing to put something like that together for quite some time and, thanks to my friend Kyra, I had to create one for her art show. Here's the link, if you're interested.

Anyway, the punchline for this episode I got from one of my fellow bartenders, but it ended up changing along the way, as most of my jokes do. In the end, I came back to the original idea when my girlfriend didn't get it the way it was originally modified. I was almost in trouble when I had to rewrite the banter between Peg and Sal because it was already drawn, so space was definitely an issue. I think it all worked out.

Also, I'm fishing around for elegant script/handwritten fonts for the title. I'm trying something new this episode, so I hope you like it.

Cheers.
