One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for December 06, 2020

Nubbins Fairlygood has covid-19 and, since nobody is wearing a mask or social distancing, everybody else will also get sick, so nobody will be able to go see the show, but it doesn’t matter, since all indoor gatherings are banned and the show is cancelled.

I wish the arithmetic problems I had to solve in school was as entertaining as this one. I might have done better in math.

Different subject, Why is this one different than the one in my Newspaper today? I know I’m missing something here…….

Two trains leave two cities heading in opposite directions…

(Has to be opposite directions or they would never collide…)

Now that’s a story problem!

the answer is soooo simple! it’s 2020. Also I love Ruthie’s stories much better than the ones I had to read. If you have 5 apples and Jimmy has 3. How many oranges does Sally have? I was always trying to figure out who Sally was, why she didn’t have apples, and “then who cares?” was my usual reply.

“It’s SUBTEXT, Steven!”

Question: If the cost of a bat and a baseball combined is $1.10 and the bat costs 41.00 more than the ball, how much is the ball? Now close you eyes. it’s dark isn’t it.

My kindergarten teacher called Mom in once because I drew a landscape instead of three apples. The apples were in the tree.

That would be 9 people who stay outside.

9 people will not be able to get in.
