Transcript:
Red: Oopsy. The rubber band busted and now the paper is scattered all over the place. Thought it is kinda ironic, seeing how most of the news is bad news.
It’s so cute the way Red places his ear across his eye. Lol. As far as the news is concerned, it’s really worthless knowledge unless it helps me make voting decisions haha!
The newspaper company said not to, but I always carried an extra one. It was useful often enough and sometimes somebody would tip REAL well if I brought them another. “There’s a picture of my Niece. You wouldn’t have an extra, would you?”
he should learn how to fold newspapers so you don’t need a rubber band to hold them together. When I had a newspaper route, the manager taught us all how to do it.
Ambidextrous. It was explained in the Calvin & Hobbes comments that cartoonists use whatever perspective is necessary to best convey the joke. Is all this kind of pickiness necessary? It is a cartoon with its own physics and logic. (Sorry, a little cranky today).
Ermine NotyoursA little filk I composed on mine:[notes] “Because, it’s raining cats and dogs outsideThere’s no one here to see the bride.” [end notes]That was 58 years ago, and I am still bugging her with filk.
right or left handed. I think I would have started out throwing with the arm not through the bag strap. However the strap across the neck on the throwing side might not be that great an idea since the strap would get an extra workout on the throwing side. any personal experiences out there?
Way back in the Flintstone era I never threw my papers over handed . If you threw side arm ,the flat folded paper would sail like a frissbe ! And I also used both hands depending on which side of my bike I needed to deliver to !P.S. I had a large basket on the handelbars which was rigged up my Dad !
