Scary Gary by Mark Buford for June 10, 2024

The dollar store is a great resource.

Of course.

Too bad it’s not in COLOR!

$1.25 store now.

I don’t think you can get a doubling cube at the dollar store.

Gary should be proud of Leopold for repurposing old skin and bones and keeping them out of a landfill. He’s practically an eco-warrior.

Carve those dice from bones too and they will be like what people used in the first place. Where do you think the term “shake them bones” came from?

Gary thought someone had to die for the die.

Love Leopold

Traditionally, the die would be carved from bone or ivory, depending on availability, time frame, etc.

The teeth make wonderful rattles!!

I am surprised the dice were from The Dollar Store. Was throwing dice referred to “as rolling them bones?”

A chess set should be a real challenge. :)

He must have fairly small enemies.

On their backs the game is on.

Hilarious!

Funny. Because a lot of ancient dice were carved from bone.
