Free Range by Bill Whitehead for August 26, 2023

“Paper Tiger.”

Yeah, the current news is enough to make a person want to be on a desert island.

He looked at the bitcoin prices and saw he lost his shirt. Literally.

Was it the GOP primary debate?

See Johnny Castaway, the best screen saver of all time, bar none!!!

Oh, look here! The island is being developed as a strip mall.

The first thing he wanted was a newspaper?!? He wasn’t on that island long enough.

If only there were 8 billion little islands so nobody would ever have to deal with anyone else again …

They had newspapers?!

No!!

I don’t blame you.

“Another Presidential election coming up. I’ll just stay on this island with no communications or ads.”

Foreign travel explained

Looks at todays news. Hmmm I wonder if that island has room for another person?

It doesn’t take much sometimes to realize how good you already have it

That bad, eh?

Why do you think we penguins live in the Antarctic?

“Population To Double By 2030, Babies To Blame.”

Wait, isn’t that going a little overboard?

I initially thought he was looking at a map to return to Cuba or Mother Roosia. (I know now its a newspaper)

Help! I don’t get it, and why did he take off his shirt?…

Old joke, but everyone still wants to take all the new conveniences with them.
