Rustic Sunday

Gasoline Alley, 4/30/23

I thought perhaps we were going to get the beginning of a heartwarming arc where Joel learns to read late in life (hey, it worked for Crankshaft!) until Rufus actually reads the letter to him, which is so inane as to make someone actively avoid becoming literate if that's all that's on offer. Why not spend your day planting trees rather than reading books and letters written on the stuff they make the trees into, you know? It's Arbor Day all year, my friends.
