Good News Bad News (1996)

December 02, 1996
(1996) Dry Bones cartoon: 1996,Syria, Gas, Assad, King Solomon,
Today's Golden Oldie is from December 1996. Fifteen years ago this month.

I've always had two weaknesses. One is a love of "Good News, Bad News" jokes and the other is a compulsion to go for a laugh when the situation seems frightening.

This King Solomon cartoon about a threat from Syria is an example of both.
