I debated a bit on how I should title this one. "Rocket Gem" seemed the most humorous without also being too crude. ;)

I actually had a totally different gag planned for this one originally, then yet another totally different gag after that before finally settling on this one, a month or two before it came time to produce it. The other two gags were okay, but I felt their punchlines didn't have enough...well...punch. This gag however added a extra level of comic absurdity that I decided was what I was looking for, so there you go.

Most frustrating part about making this one was that darn bookcase. Indeed, part of the reason the shelves all collapse and dump their contents is mostly just so I wouldn't have to draw it in full a second time. :P
