Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 24, 2025

I assume Mike is referring to Bush’s little excursion into Iraq, right? Where BD loses a leg and FINALLY stops wearing helmets??

In ancient Israel, soldiers would divorce their wives before going into battle. That way, if any soldiers were MIA, the women were free to remarry. Of course, if any men returned safely, they and their wives could wed again—until the next war!

Doonesbury was kind of prescient, don’t you think?

So where to? Greenland? Canada? Panama? Gaza?

If he was in Vietnam that means he would have been at least 50 in 2002; the Army reserves has an age limit of 35.

He’s had an unerring ear for more than five decades.

*O/T but . . . *

I cancelled an email account I had with a provider that brags about how wonderful its service is. They assured me the account would be closed by the 22nd (i.e. 2 days ago). It wasn’t. What did happen was that they helped themselves to another month’s rent from my credit union account !!

So I phoned them and after talking with 3 people, maybe 4, and providing the same information to them each time, I was told that they acknowledged the error and it would only take 2 weeks to refund the money. I told the current person that, no, if it wasn’t done today, then tomorrow I’d have my credit union claw it back. And he had the cheek to ask why I wanted to make things difficult.

Remember this one like it was yesterday.

Selling it short ! ;-)

Remember the “back door draft” back then?

BD will be back sooner that that. Well,MOST of him will…..

you should never end a comic with a pre-position….

“….parts of me, anyway.”
