Last week, I told Gaby to do something (I think it was get dressed for school) and several minutes later, she'd already forgotten what I'd asked. The idea of comparing a goldfish memory to that of a young, easily distracted child immediately came to mind and I bemoaned to Wendy that I should've drawn a Terrible Twos cartoon on the theme during the goldfish storyline. 'Well, do that anyway and insert it back into the story somewhere' she advised. 'Can I *do* that?!' I asked incredulously. Fortunately she nodded in the affirmative so here is Gaby's goldfish memory cartoon... The winning punchline was submitted by Dmitri. There were 10 finalist punchlines chosen for this cartoon. You can read the transcript of IRC Judging Session #504 where we decided the winning punchline. This cartoon was archived on 2007-02-20.

Maybe they need a daddy like mine, to remind them every minute to do something?

But then, goldfish don't need to remember to get dressed.
