One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for August 25, 2019

And a very good lesson

I take the 4:20 daily.

Lots of Baltimore references!

playing and life lessons at the same time? The nerve!

Yay!(?), Maryland references! One on each side of where I live. :o)

Ya think?

Is Dad getting paid by Operation Lifesaver to play this game with Ruthie and Joe?

would you rather learn the hard way, Ruthie?

well done!

That’s one lesson everyone needs to be taught. Remember, trains can’t stop on a dime.

I was walking along an industrial area of Seattle. I passed a party that seemed to be attended by longshoremen and their bosses, before just missing being blocked by a train. It was switching in and out of tracks, building up a long train, and would spend much time holding still. From the party emerged a well dressed couple, probably management. Without hesitation they climbed one of the cars and went through to the other side. I might have done the same but there was a pedestrian on the other side patiently waiting, and I didn’t want to put pressure on him to break the rules. I finally gave up and walked towards town rather than wait anymore.

Ok, I get it! Only buy model train proof dolls.

Panel 2 is Hilarious!

There are a lot of Yackety Yolandas out there in the real world.

My baby takes the morning train; she works from 9 to 5 and then…

You are right Ruthie, dad is teaching a lesson.
