This might anger any Marmaduke fans out there, so I’ll apologize to both of them in advance. But via BoingBoing comes a link to a project to make Marmaduke funny by putting him in New Yorker comics, giving him a theme song and rewriting the strip’s captions:
It’s a noble idea that is probably utterly doomed to failure … cliches about squeezing water from rocks or putting lipstick on pigs probably apply.
