Comic Strip Title: "A Hole in the Wall"

Summary:

This comic strip, originally published in 1991, features Dilbert, Dogbert, and Flossie in a humorous exchange about a piece of the Berlin Wall. The conversation begins with Dogbert's announcement that he has acquired a chunk of the wall, which he claims is the latest addition to his museum. However, Flossie points out that the piece has a hole in it, which Dilbert jokingly attributes to the "hillbillies" who must have seen a hole in the shape of their sidewalk and traded it to Berlin. The conversation continues with Flossie apologizing to the dog, Flossie, for the mistake, and Dogbert's response that he could get a replacement piece. The strip ends with Dogbert's signature phrase, "I'm not a dog, I'm a cat."
