Old joke::A man walks down the street, and he accidentally trips and falls into a huge mound of garbage. Unable to get up, he starts yelling, “Fire! Fire!” Someone runs over and helps him up, and then asks, “Why were you yelling ‘Fire’?” and the man says, “Who would have come if I’d yelled ‘Garbage’?”

Usually hate when they update strips. Maybe this one could have been an exception. Though it does tell one what life was like back years ago.

Well times have changed – but I have to admit, it’s interesting to know the mindset of different times.
