It is interesting to me that this latest strip has so few comments, and I am thinking mainly of the usual rebuking comments. This saying is so basic and universal that mostly everyone can relate. Or maybe the negative nellies just found something else to swarm about.

Build a man a fire, and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.

The fisherman looks a little like Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs.

Teach a man how to fish, and you’ll have the house all to yourself all weekend during the fishing season.
