Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for April 27, 2017

Canberra — Korea: not even close.

I know! It’s what Arlo Guthrie’s father died of!

Korea is what happens when you have a problem with your kolon.

It all depends on whether it’s Huntington’s Korea.

They don’t know Korea from Corea.

It’s between Venus and Mars.

Yep, future Drumpf Cabinet members, each and every one….or FAUX Noise “Annalists”…

“Venus and Mars are alright tonight…”

How’s that old joke go ?

" So, whaddaya think of Red China ? "

" Not too bad with a yellow tablecloth…"

Corea? Isn’t he a jazz pianist?

I’d like to think a teacher could fix this, except, who else can you blame for it in the first place?

Wow Doonesbury is portraying, today’s students as they really are.

Trump denies climate change here on the planet earth. This makes him a plantar fascist. Get it? (I’m married to an orthopedic doctor.)

They’re zeroing in on the truth by trial and error — lots and lots of errors.

Ask your doctor if Korea is right for you.

My wife is a highly intelligent woman in her late-50’s, a Lisc. Trabajadora Social with a Masters degree, and the worst sense of world geography I have ever encountered.

Apparently, either they didn’t teach it when she was going to school or she missed the classes !

It has gotten to be such a running joke with us that I actually went out a purchased a world globe ( surprisingly hard to find ). The clerk laughed when I explained that it was for my wife, not my grandchildren.

It has though, become a great learning tool for the entire family.

Sadly most people have a narrow interest range for whatever reason. I was one of those with an innate interest in too many things.

On the other hand, who remembers when world maps always showed regions that were ‘part’ of the British empire in red?
