Lio by Mark Tatulli for March 16, 2021

do you even have enough postage, Lio, in order to mail yourself there?

Don’t forget the air holes.

Obviously the use of “space cadet” is non-derogatory in this case…unless Lio is incredibly self-deprecating.

Dad is torn between either getting him out of the box or taping it up.

Colorado or Alabama?

Is he an eager young space cadet?

Nice try.

Considering the extreme abuse the box will take getting there, if he survives the trip they should definitely sign him up.

USAF recruiting is over that way, Lio. You’ll have to wait a few years, though. And you’ll be waiting a LONG time for manned missions from Space Force. Not really their thing.

“Space cadet” is really hitting the thumb on the nail.

We called the cadets Sorority girls in college.

Shouldn’t he travel by air mail?

You can’t mail kids anymore. Sadly. https://www.history.com/news/mailing-children-post-office

I thought it was “Eager Young Space Cadet”

“I’m gonna wrap myself in paper…”

I bet Dad is temptred.
