FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for October 06, 2018

I would hate to see Jason visit the Library of Congress.

That part of the Dewey Decimal System covers Old English, French and German literature. Jason should be in the 530s reading up on physics.

Leave the backpack on the floor and keep your stomach against the shelves.

The cost of higher learning.

Or, Jason, you could have asked for help!

So this library has several floors but a single shelf for such a big part of european litterature (“old english” to “french rethoric”)? No wonder it’s unbalanced!

The Internet will give you hundreds of answers. A Librarian will give you the right answer.

Crushed by a bookcase? He may need more than just first aid.

Did he get that book on mountain climbing that he was looking for?

When my daughter was about that age, she wanted to raid the stash of chocolate chips in our pantry, but it was on the top shelf. She tried the same thing with similar results.

Looking for a book called, “Climbing the Bookcase” by John Rolloff?

Ya know, Jason, there’s an incredible invention known as a step-ladder.

He still acts like a boy who doesn’t properly think some things out like that climb he just accomplished.

Guess this library is too cheap to afford one of those stools with wheels that librarians use to gain access to the higher shelves.
