“Bankers and Postal Employees”? I tried looking at news the few days before this strip, but didn’t see anything. I wonder what i was talking about. That’s the funny thing when writing topical comics.
And who knew we’d live to see a day where there are about 8 different kinds of chocolate-variety butter spreads?!!!
The 2001 Anthrax Attacks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001_anthrax_attacks) maybe?
Yes yes yes! Thatnk you, John. That’s right. Wow. I’d forgotten.
And I knew all about it as well because I worked in the mail room in a bank (this is true!)
I think we’re in for a century like the one that followed the final exile of Napoleon, a time of social upheaval, brutal repression, internecine warfare, and the rise of a new class of ‘isms’ to replace communism, facism and Naziism with something more lively and lethal. Waiting for the Revolts of 1830 and 1848. And of course another Pullman Strike with a triple-digit body count. It CAN happen here.
