I have long wondered about this. On the day I drew this, it was a Friday and I had been sitting at a light when the tornado sirens went off. No one seemed to think anything about it. If it had been a real emergency, I don’t know how long it would have taken us to realize that.
This seemed appropriate for the times as the “impeachment proceedings” appear to me to just be a Rorshach test for the voting public (with no right answer).
Both homeopathy and “real” medicine involve a lot of placebo effect. I’m not saying they’re equal, but that often neither will work if the person doesn’t believe they will.
I learned this fact while researching wombats for a book I was writing that everyone who has read loves and still quotes passages back to me but, sadly, you will probably never see.
OK, the joke is good, but looking at the strip now I think maybe I should have left out Penn saying “Um” because the way I drew it too many people think it’s the bear saying it.
I love it when seminars are offered on topics like this and the way the flyer is worded you’re not really sure whether they are in favor of violence or alcoholism or whatever.
