Bob The Squirrel

Bob the Squirrel is a comic strip by Frank Page. Its name refers to the main character, a squirrel named Bob, who represents the strip's creator's consciousness. Because of this premise, Frank Page actually appears in the comic strip as one of the central characters.

The squirrel represents the cartoonist's inner voice... a voice that verbalizes everything that the cartoonist wants to say but is afraid to do so.

Page is not afraid to put real events from his life into the strip. Everything from divorce, emotional distress as well as life changing triumphs are all fair game.

Famous quotes containing the words bob and/or squirrel:

    “It was because of me. Rumors reached Inman that I had made a deal with Bob Dole whereby Dole would fill a paper sack full of doggie poo, set it on fire, put it on Inman’s porch, ring the doorbell, and then we would hide in the bushes and giggle when Inman came to stamp out the fire. I am not proud of this. But this is what we do in journalism.”
    —Roger Simon, U.S. syndicated columnist. Quoted in Newsweek, p. 15 (January 31, 1990)

    “A squirrel leaping from bough to bough, and making the wood but one wide tree for his pleasure, fills the eye not less than a lion,—is beautiful, self-sufficing, and stands then and there for nature.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
