Rex, of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, accompanied by his faithful Malamute King shows his latest valentine effort. All thumbs when it comes to blunt-point safety scissors and construction paper, Rex has made a valiant attempt at cardiographical symmetry. He's been through half a ream of paper as he shifts the point of the heart from left to right and trims one lobe to make it match the other, with each heart getting smaller and smaller until nothing remains. Rex has quit while he's ahead on this heart and even though King thinks it looks more like a spleen, Rex is satisfied and takes pride in his own persistence.

Rex has quit while he's ahead on this heart and even though King thinks it looks more like a spleen, Rex is satisfied and takes pride in his own persistence.

Groundskeeper Josh
Wanted by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and hunkered down in the Southern States, the vile but charismatic Josh Harmonieux moves from one menial job to another to support his gratuitous rib shooting and shangalorlor piercing habit. School photographer, life coach, or groundskeeper, there is nothing too low for this miscreant jackanapes. In his latest position as groundskeeper the ne'r-do-well has access to sharp instruments, fertilizers, flammable liquids and small internal combustion engines. Last seen wearing a kilt and driving a small Korean automobile, the diminutive Harmonieux should be considered petulant, ambidextrous and slightly goofy. If seen, he should be approached with revulsion and eyes averted. Considered a kind of low-rent folk hero by some, little help can be expected from the public in his apprehension.

Dead-end Job

Newt's Christmas Bush
Newt Gantry, one of the Gantry twins out of Blackfoot, Idaho is known for his pithy aphorisms and thoughtful pronouncments. Heck, he's even read several books. While brother Waddie is fillin' out his Christmas list Newt gets into the holiday spirit hisself by festooning a mesquite bush with empty snuff tins. Newt's Momma made him promise to abstain from the abominable weed, so he don't partake hisself, but the empties is in plentiful supply round abouts camp.
Waddie's Christmas List
Waddie Gantry, one of the Gantry twins out of Blackfoot, Idaho is known for his physical rather than intellectual powers. Brother Newt got the brains in the family. We don't mean to be spoilin' no surprises, but everyone on Waddie's Christmas list is receiving a brand new bovine.
Gordon's Good Fortune
Gordon, proud member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, has the good fortune of discovering the lovely Miss Eloise standing beneath the mistletoe at the village Christmas Social. Not completely unfamiliar with the customs associated with mistletoe, Miss Eloise is surprised to learn that the the dense evergreen clumps of the parasitic plant make excellent locations for roosting and nesting for species ranging from Northern Spotted Owls, Marbled Murrelets, Diamond Firetails and Painted Honeyeaters. Gordon finds it best not to discuss in this festive atmosphere the commonly held belief that the "mist" in mistletoe is the german for "dung" and that it was once believed that the plant originated in bird droppings.
