I understand #7, he just hasn’t fully woke up yet and grabbed a cane by mistsake.
Can anyone explain #2 for me?
She has heard of wind or weather warnings for small boats between two points on the coast.
I don’t see how it is relevant or humorous.
Is it the idea she is being over prepared and it is funny because the warning doesn’t apply to them?
I agree on cartoon #6! This wife has some nerve committing her husband to run down to the bus or train station to pick Martha up, in a rainstorm about as bad as the artist could depict it. With #7, I have no idea what’s going on with the husband. It’s clearly raining, and he’s clearly ‘out of it’ mentally.
