White Powder (2001)

November 19, 2001
This Golden Oldie is from 2001. Ten years ago America was caught in a massive anthrax scare. Everyone seemed to be on the lookout for anthrax-laden mail. According to the BBC of Wednesday, November 7 , 2001:
"In media offices, abortion clinics, and government offices around the United States, mail handlers are donning white gloves for fear of the dreaded white powder - anthrax.But still the FBI has no conclusive evidence as to whether the recent attacks have been state-sponsored, or the work of America's own radicals.It is a complex investigation made worse by the fact that more than 2,500 anthrax scares in the United States have turned out to be false alarms."-more

Old Moze, the Israeli tour guide, was well-past retirement age but he continued to take tourists to locations that were not too hard to get to. His customers always enjoyed these tours. You could ask any of them and they would literally sing his praises:
Moze's tour ya sure oughtta see

And ten years before that, you could've penned the same 'toon, word for word, about cocaine!
