Tisha Be'Av

Thursday, August 08, 2019

Today's cartoon is a Golden Oldie about the Jewish memorial day of Tisha Be'Av which marks the destruction of both of the two Jerusalem Temples, and a list of other bad-luck events in Jewish history. A day of fasting and introspection. This year Tisha Be'Av eve is Saturday Aug 10

I started Dry Bones in Jan 1973. Since then I've been known as "Bones" to friends and colleagues. This is the first time I've ever shared the "stories behind the cartoons." Enjoy.
