    I wonder how much he’s actually learning, since it looks like he can’t see.

    I think Geppetto was a lumberjack, not a carpenter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FshU58nI0Ts

    Pinnochio needed comforting after the way his job search went today. See today’s Rubes.

    It’s a good thing that the Comic Censor hangs out at “Pearls Before Swine,” or Hilburn would be in so much trouble.
