My thought is that with the state of the local island economy, $8 is as significant an investment as building one’s own sea-going vessel. The wages at the snow-globe factory are probably reprehensibly low given the price of snow-globes in general, particularly in relation to the cost of living expenses of housing and importation of almost all other goods. Those not directly involved in the snow-globe manufacturing and it’s support industries are probably engaged in a mostly fish and handycrafts based barter system, placing any quantity of currency outside the norms of possession, let alone $8, regardless of whether dollars are in fact the locally recognized currency of choice for those who do handle it.
My “analysis” from this point on grows yet further more disjointed and seems to advocate a nationalistic seizure of snow-globe production. It hints at paranoiac suspicions that more then mere snow-globes are produced within this shrouded industry and that sinister diabolic forces move behind the scenes.
There is also the tacit idealized suggestion that I think Ferry-Boat Captain sounds like a pretty swell job, offering much more satisfaction and stability then my own.
Though the full text really isn’t coherent or really of interest, or even in existence.
Love that expressiveness. Top quality bowd.
now i just miss that webcomic Krakow.
Reb: Ferry boat captain sounds like a terrific job!
But if $8 is an unheard-of amount on this island, why does it have a ferry service at all? Surely the people employed on the island must live there, and I see no reason for tourists to visit the place. I suppose the snow-globe makers would have to transport their products to the mainland, but that’s a weekly delivery at most.
Cold: He’s so expressive that sometimes his head is round, and sometimes it’s rectangular.
Never read Krakow.
I simply think that Frank also runs the ferry and if the bird accepts he will make 8 bucks and then have a meal and if it refuses he will have a nice meal and take whatever money the bird carried, win-win for Frank
