Rubes by Leigh Rubin for May 17, 2021

…right after his wife told him to go fly a kite.

As long as it’s elective eccentricity, he’ll be okay.

This is not in his bio!!!!

I wonder if the bovine creature watching will use his horns in Franklin’s posterior…?

EUREKA! EUREKA!

Barejamin doesn’t look that bad, but he seems to be missing a couple o bearings, Franklin speaking.

Let’s hope his rod is grounded!

…definitely a key decision…

I think the cow’s about to jump all over that moon.

since this can not be unseen, we had mad cows after that

Being very intelligent is eccentric in itself.

There are tales of him being a member of the Hellfire Club in London, plus what got up to in Paris.

And apparently, he took “air baths” where he sat naked in front of an open window.

Shame on you! You didn’t blur-out Franklin’s butt crack… that’s guaranteed to OFFEND someone! So get with the “WOKE” program.

Well, he probably wasn’t the first but he has definitely discovered it.

The worst part is, this isn’t the first cartoon of Ben Franklin naked that I’ve seen.

Very conceited. It was all about the Benjamin.

Ben’s got BUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

But he’s missing a key element.

He also wrote about the strengths of flatulence various foods produced… a true renaissance man.
