Goat says, "Hey, Rat, what's going on?" Rat says, "I just came by to tell you I bought a 65 inch flatscreen T.V. for myself for Christmas." Goat says, "Well, good for you." Rat sys, "Not 32 inches. Not 46 inches. Not 58 inches. But 65 inches." Goat says, "I see. It's..." 65 inches Goat says, "Yeah, it's-" Sixty five inches Goat says, "It get it... it's-" If you're Roman, LXV inches. Goat says, "I get it! Okay? You have a big T.V. ...it doesn't make you the greatest guy in the world." Rat says, "I know, I know. I'm just having some fun." Zebra says, "Hey, guys... did you see the paper? Big sale on flatscreens... I'm thinking about getting one for my living room... maybe a 70 inch-" CRACK Goat says, "Why did you-" Rat says, "I just think that's a wee bit big for his living room." Pig says, "Room size is an important consideration, Zebra!"

Pig’s right. Zebra shouldn’t set for 70 inches, he should get one the size of the entire room.

Stephan Pastis may need more room to draw his strip. It seems like too much information is crammed into these panels.

L=50 X=10, and V=5. Numbers are from greatest to least, so add to get 65.
