Francis the Yeti is rarely bored - a state of affairs he deeply regrets. A friendly, soft-spoken fellow, Francis practices boredom the way a musician practices scales, and does his best to avoid any activity more lively than making a pot of coffee. Unfortunately for Francis, he often finds himself roped into sprawling and exciting adventures by his brothers Larry and Curtis, or one of the other residents of Esoteria Valley. Sometimes he even has to do some - ugh - light jogging.
