Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 05, 2019

Life before Google and the smartphone.

So I guess Mike’s fantasy’s take the Novel form instead of the short story form.

Mike and Poncho (Pooch Cafe) are both waking up from their dream sequences. Poncho closes the blinds on his. Mike?

“Phone for you, Mr. Doonesbury. It’s reality calling.”

As Ambassador, you should really know how to spell it! Even in your fantasy…

Is that Sharon Stone’s head in the bottom left corner of the first panel? If so it doesn’t so much look like Mike’s blowing off Sharon Stone as er, rather the opposite…?

It would explain a lot of U.S. foreign policy if it turned out that the ‘experts’ on countries don’t know where ‘their’ countries are.

Hmmm…That probably would make him one of our ‘leading experts’…

Whoops! If you paint yourself into a corner in your own fantasy, you need to take a nap and regroup.

Where is Sharon Stone today? Did her 15 minutes of fame expire?

Why in Mike’s fantasy is his wife able to call him at the White House?

This series is like the “prequel” to Jeff Redfern’s Red Rascal adventures.

Stick around until it goes beyond critical…you’re dead at home anyway.

Time to send in the Red Rascal.
