And with that in mind… could their very best friends, and Joy’s own sister, and even her sometimes boyfriend, who goes to the gym with Burl and Dale…ALL not know when he was born?
Maybe he has so many birthdays, both real and fake, that they can’t keep track.
Or maybe Burl doesn’t bring it up so he doesn’t have to share his cake.
Nah…. I’m sure he does want presents.
Ya gotta love Dale’s answer, by the way.
And Leaky….where’dja go again?You are one slippery character,
Me too. The picture shows Dale and Marlene with four children (grandchildren?) yet we have only seen Timmy and sometimes his father.On another matter, I saw in today’s paper that the Army had recaptured a man who had escaped from Fort Leavenworth 40 years ago. I thought that place was so secure that when people died there even their souls couldn’t get out!
The picture on the wall seems to show their son and his 3 kids (assumedly he was able to get at least partial custody- long enough to take photos).
@Susan, yes, Leaky does not seem to drop by often (and even then has little to say- no exchanging barbs as before). I will admit to taking offense a little, but I don’t mind good natured kidding, especially now that I’m happy again. and even when I take offense, I do not ever respond with anything unfair.
And regarding the captions today (on shirts) I think they’re new as I don’t remember Burl having many that nice. And we all HOPE that in spite of this lot, little Timmy is not a “C” student.

I know I’m the one who says never mind the continuity, cos there’s absolutely no chronology in this strip.
But…. even with special occasions popping up randomly, with no regard for last year’s, or any year’s dates or timing….
It still seems to me Burl has more alleged “birthdays” than a bleached blonde B-girl in a Shanghai clip joint.

I am more puzzled by the picture… So far Dale and Marlene have only shown up with a son and grandson…. ? ! ?

Well at least Dale has something to be proud of. I sure hope it’s not Timmy though.
I think Jerry got it right this time, after all Burl does seem to have a lot of b. days a year.
