Red and Rover by Brian Basset for January 23, 2023

A skill that will serve him well throughout life!

Use REAL boogers and you’ll never run out.

Of course, when he went to get a real one for comparison, his finger got glued in his nose.

Eew! More sanitary than real ones, I guess ;)

Red’s in a really good mood. Recently Rover asked him how school was and he painted a very black picture. Rover asked, “Apart from missing me, how was school.” Red cheered up a little and replied, “Not too bad! We had a Disney cartoon about Math.” Someone identified that as “Donald in MathMagic Land” from 1961.

Snot a bad idea!

That bring back fond memories. Yip yip yip yip yip

i like my boogers real, and fresh

Rubber Cement – BOY do I ever remember that !!! What FUN !!!

I don’t remember rubber cement but I remember paste—and even now I still remember how it smelled, a rather pleasant odor (for me). But no, I never tasted it! I also remember manila paper (kind of yellow or beige, with a subtle texture).

As a girl, I would smear rubber cement across my desk and then roll it all up to make a bouncy ball.

The smell of rubber cement is one of those odors that absolutely transports me back in time to my desk in 1st grade. It makes me see and hear that scene as if I was there just a moment before. It’s amazing.

I remember rubber cement….oy

A skill that will serve him well in his future life.

Everything is white today!

Takes me back. I haven’t thought of rubber cement in ages. Thanks, Red!

Where did all that snow go? ha

We all did!

And it bounces too!
