Red and Rover by Brian Basset for October 05, 2019

Uhhh, you just are not around during the part where they feel better.

Plop plop, fizz fizz, oh what a relief it is!

Speedy Alka-Seltzer.

Kid’s got a point.

And kissing a girl makes the least sense of all!

You spoke the truth, Red.

Way back when, the adults had Alka-Seltzer…but the kids had their Fizzies!

That is one of the things I have not understood during my 75 years-friends who claimed that they drank to have more fun but then couldn’t remember the fun-plus the life ruining events that they were involved in is……no word comes to mind.

Red, as you get older, you’ll understand more of their behavior….

There’s something called “depression”. When you have it, drinking makes you feel less-bad, for a short time.

True, true, very true!!

They feel lousy, they drink to drown their sorrows, they find out sorrows are great swimmers.

It’s very simple. They drink too much in order to try to forget they don’t have a dog like you, Rover.

You sure got that right Red!

Yup. No sense at all. In High School, I looked around at the trouble classmates were getting into and said to myself, “If that’s adult, I’m staying a child.”

Got that right, RED…love, hugs, happy Saturday, boys

You’ll find out…all too soon.

Washington DC is a perfect example

Naive me. I thought it was from over-eating. That’s what the ads said, anyway.

A men Red. That’s why I never grew up, lol!

Oh Red, sometimes parents can’t figure out why kids do the things they do! So it’s a two way street which you learn about eventually.

dang. he’s onto us.

“Wait till ya join da rat race, kid!”

That makes sense.

Adults do a lot of things that make no sense to children. As you get older, you understand.

OMG! I haven’t thought about that commercial in years! Speedy Alka Seltzer singing that. plop plop fizz fizz, etc. MAN DO I FEEL SO OLD RIGHT NOW! SIGH!
