Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 31, 2022

uh-oh … think I can guess what’s coming – another of old Stupidhead’s wrong decisions :D

With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty, that good ship and true was a bone to be chewed when the gales of November came early…

Oh come on,for goodness sakes! Seattle does not get that foggy! San Francisco yes, but not Seattle!

Next frame: CRASH!!

And the landscape is littered with broken exercise gadgets!!

Beats me how that idiot can see where he’s steering that barge!!!

We must have skipped ahead a few weeks, cause the game is afoot. Or afloat.

Somehow, I don’t think they took out any insurance on this great piece of “art”!

That installation will make a great playground for all the little fishies! :D

He’s as stubborn as a man who will never ask for directions….LOL

When JJ is the sensible one, they’re not exactly the most functional couple.

The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed…

A fool and his money are soon parted.

She let him take the wheel??

This can’t go wrong.

This is why the people of Seattle don’t tan, they rust.

Wearing his hat the way he does, fog doesn’t make any difference.

Funny how killer fog does not care about context. Zeke must have gotten his misinformation online from a humidity conspiracy site.

Coincidently, I just last night read an article about building the Golden Gate Bridge (I know, it’s not in Seattle…). One of the statements was that early explorers sailed past the entrance to the bay due to heavy fog.

I lived in Seattle for a decade; don’t remember much fog.

This does not bode well…

I sense something momentous is about to happen…..

Zeke lives in a perpetual fog anyway.

Seattle—only city where you can get salmon chowder.

Not that you’d WANT it….

Meanwhile,in Florida,it’s Ron De Santis vs.Mickey Mouse and Snow White.

Mickey will win because he’s nicer.

No, context is king.

Have heard of a Seattle fog so thick a helicopter got lost in it, until the pilot saw someone in an office window and displayed a sign saying “Where am I?” The man in the office replied with a sign saying, “You’re in a helicopter.” Since the information was accurate but useless, he knew it was the Microsoft building and was able to navigate from there. &8-{)

Allowing Uncle Stupidhead to make any sort of Decisions will Always end badly.

Pretty sure he’s about to cost her $200,000.

I am wondering what idiot let an unlicensed loon like Zeke take command of any vessel, especially in a heavly traveled area like Puget Sound.
