Doc Brown, trying to figure out how to build a Flux Capacitor without any plutonium.

Martin was disappointed in how they wrote his obituary.

Carl was disappointed to see his newspaper had quit running Mark Trail on the comics page!

Leonard had to check the Guinness records to be sure he was the first to wear a ball cap backward.

/// His wife asked him to read her The Letter,

and he’s trying hard not to upset her,

but he can’t really see:

Letter “U”? Letter “V”?

He wished that in school he’d done better.

At first, I thought he was reading the comic pages, but on second look I think he’s using them to hide the latest copy of Penthouse.

Is this potty humor?

John couldn’t believe this new-fangled product called toilet paper had such lengthy instructions.

The best seat in the house.

Holy cow! The Lions won the Super Bowl?

Horatio Q. Hornblutz, the last known man to actually read the instructions.

Hans is surprised to find his own obituary in the paper.

“How could anyone possibly read this? They printed it upside-down!”

I just can’t believe it! After all these years they are changng the Redskins to the Commanders?

John thought by reading a scary story it would scare the crap out of him.

Is he reading the toi ra?…

Basic training for Elvis impersonators.

Gus scoured the Racing Form for long shots but never managed to get his bet in before the race had finished.
