2901. Geographic Qualifiers

title text: 'Thank you for the loveliest evening I've ever had...' [normal] '...east of the Mississippi.' [instant intrigue!]

Single panel comic.

A large statue of a squirrel on a skateboard is mounted on a plinth.

Two small figures (their heads are maybe 1/3 of the height of the plinth) are standing next to it.

Figure 1 exclaims "At over 40 feet, it's the tallest statue of a skateboarding squirrel in the northern hemisphere."

Figure 2 has a thought bubble: ...Wait, who in the heck...Brazil? South Africa? Australia? Squirrels aren even native there...

Lower caption: I love the instant mystery created by qualifiers like "east of the Mississippi" or "in the northern hemisphere".
