Pluggers by Rick McKee for April 08, 2023

Would one of those ’95 strips be the finishing Calvin and Hobbes strips?

Having 1995 newspaper comics to pack a gift says you’re more of a hoarder than a Plugger.

That was around the end of the great Far Side strip, and Peanuts was still going.

I’d read comics from back then too!

Mickey Finn, Ally Oop, Red Ryder?

I used to have the newspaper that came out the day after President Kennedy was assassinated on Nov 22, 1963, nearly six decades ago.

Really old newsprint gets very brittle, thus breaks up and would not be good for wrapping around a gift.

Ah the good ol days me used to gets newspaper just for reading them comics.

Ah Yes the many uses of old Newspaper ! Paper Logs to Wrapping Paper to Garden Mulch ;-)

I like reading the newspapers from other places used as packing….

Always, especially if it wasn’t packed locally.

Cool!

I always have to work the crossword puzzles, even if half the clues are missing.

HOW long has that gift been wrapped ??

spot on!
