Pickles by Brian Crane for December 06, 2016

ouch… never had a relative of mine die in early December as far as I know

Double ouch…………

My Granddad also died in december

kind of a callous strip today

There was this old guy at my church who used to joke he was so old he wouldn’t buy green bananas. He’s gone now.

Out of the mouths of babes…..

Kids say the darnedest things!

But he wanted to make sure you bought him one, before you croaked.

Isn’t he a ray of sunstroke.

Ouch. Rotten kid.

Have your granddad buy a $250,000 life insurance policy on himself with you as the beneficiary. Should almost pay for your university education.

I hope is around for a looong time- this is my favorite strip!

Where’s Art Linkletter.

That would put a damper on the festivities.

Buy grampa something you can use – just in case.

My dad died on Halloween night (after midnight so it was actually November 1) and my mom died a couple days before Memorial Day. I have had cats die close to Christmas, but never one of my “human” family.

Ouch!!

That is why it is cute when they are a child, a mean when an adult to say that.

I personally don’t care what date I pass away. Whether it’s Christmas, on my birthday etc. I won’t know anyway!

When we’ve got to go, we’ve got to go.

But I sure do feel sad for those who have lost somebody near Christmas.

Grim little strip today!

My kids were talking like that when I was only in my 40’s!

2 weeks before Christmas my uncle had a brain aneurism while hunting with his 2 adult sons (my cousins), went to sleep under a tree and never woke up. My cousins found him and it took the EMTs 3 hours to get there.

Yeah, not a good thing to say, and not a funny strip.
