As you can see, I'm getting comfortable enough with CorelXara (by now, I was on version 2.0) to make curved lines for my characters instead of the connect-the-dots that we had to do in the very earliest CorelDraw packages (and glad we were to do it! It was state-of-the-art back then!)

Naturally, there is a story to this cartoon. As one of the few heavy graphics users in my Division, I had to beg for server space. The server administrators were not pleased with my requests and that's what gave me the idea for this cartoon.
