J. Frederick E. Lee Basset: husband, father, brother, friend. And yet, though many claim to be familiar with the life of this ubiquitous dog, much of Fred's real story is sadly hidden from the public eye. Few see the whole portait of Mr. Basset in all his vitality. As a lifelong neighbor and confidant of F. Basset, I have seen the frustration on his cherubic face as he sees his essence misrepresented in thousands of newspapers day after day. This, then, is his story. This is Basset After Dark. MAJOR POLICY ANNOUNCEMENT- May 28, 2004 Today's Fred Basset is the "last" one and if you read it you can probably guess why. What I'm going to do now is fill in all the holes in the numbering with old ideas I drew once and lost, and after that, that'll be it. I'd like to end it before Fred has to jump a shark on waterskis and since I'm graduating and this was pretty much an in-joke for a few friends, I might as well do it now. BUT Basset fans fear not...I'm going to take things in a BOLD new direction. Coming, this July 4th. PS: Fred could always come back. At any time. From any angle. He could even be in your heating ducts RIGHT NOW.
