Strip by: John Murtha

{Garfield being bored}
{A millipede enters from the right}
Garfield: You're not a spider...
Millipede: Very perceptive, sir
Millipede: For your information, I happen to be a millipede
Millipede: A cylindrical arthropod of the class Diplopoda, with numerous body segments and legs
Millipede: I generally have little impact on human economic or social well-being, especially in comparison with insects, although locally I can be a nuisance. I do not bite.
{Garfield looking at computer}
Garfield: I learned something today

The author writes:

The original drawing more closely resembled a millipede.
