Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for January 08, 2019

that was quick

Now I wonder “Who” that could be at the front door?

1) Frank and Nancy arrived too early? Nah, too easy. Besides that sort of thing was done during the “Gulag Arc” this past November.

2) The Pitts City Building Code inspector and She’s NOT happy?

3) Jonah here to PICK UP Shannon? Nope. Besides, Our hearts couldn’t take the “Shock.”

4) Tiffany, pulling another one of her “Two Dates in one night” stunts, only she’s so distraught over having to spend the Holiday with Ann Eiffel that she showed up early at the WRONG house?

5) Elwood Druitt, Candidate for Mayor of the Town Pitts, “Come heayah to ax’ fo’ yo’ vote in November?”

6) Avon Calling?

Surprise!!

This is why it’s not a good idea to retain childhood friends into adulthood, particularly troublesome childhood friends like T.J.

Parents love to pop in to their kids homes at least expected time.

♪♪Who could it be knocking at my door?Who could it be now? (hopefully not my parents)♪♪

I think it is the Avon lady.

Murphy’s law…when you don’t think your parents won’t show up early, it’ll be the ONE time they will!

If anyone was wondering what Toni would look like in a beard, just take a look at the last panel.

We’ll have to see what Pipe Tobacco thinks.

Sorry, but adding a room entails more than what is mentioned here. First, you have to have approval by the city that you can add a room (building codes and inspections). Parent approval would be the least of their concerns. Also, they couldn’t do it legally without the owner’s knowledge.

It’s The Raven, and it has learned how to ring doorbells? Nevermore!

Parents came early, ah the surprises of a young couple. I always have a maybe, but its Frank and Nancy. Lets see, first of all, if they mind about the remodel. My bet is no, but something else will happen.

They’re never early…except when TJ’s making his savory stuffed pork chops! Then, just try and hold ’em back!

I hate it when people are early! I’d rather they were 10 minutes late than 5 minutes early! And they always look at you like what did I do wrong?

I hate early arrivals. Be on time or late, please.

The face of a guilty conscience.

Could it be Tiffany? It’s about time.

Cue “Who can it be now?” by Men At Work

I’m guessing it’s someone else. Otherwise, parents knocking at their own house would be just a consideration or warning to an embarrassing situation.

My money’s on that Jonah is at the door. With a new wife. They want Shannon. ( All that work for naught). BUT….maybe this will segue into a custody fight for Shannon? I don’t imagine Shannon being written out of the strip…right?

Cue the laugh track…

Why does she have to clean up? Is this an inspection of the work or her?

I don’t think the building inspector would get involved. they changed the inside not the outside structure.

Thanks to rekam for “this” idea:

“OMG! It’s the folks pulling up. Quick get dressed! And hide the __________!”

Fill in the blank. :o)

Looks like Mordy wins the “Pique My Interest” award this morning. :o)

Police asking for Ms. Daytona to identify a next of kin.

Never fails…

That has happened to me too many times to be funny. Never trust in-laws to be on time or late . . they’re always early. (sigh of exasperation)

There’s no one there. The doorbell is shorting out.

It’ll be ok. Remember when T.J. knocked out the wall between the kitchen and the living room?

Maybe a long-lost member of TJ’s family?

I think the funniest part here is that Toni looks perfect and yet thinks she needs to clean up.

It’s Jonah, dropping off Shannon and the five pit bulls he just rescued.

Jehovah’s Witnesses and a couple of Mormons. No problem.

Since we have morphed into a Ozzie and Harriett thing, it’s probably David and Ricky at the door.

Out of curiosity, why didn’t they ask?

I’m guessing the parent will be mad. Didn’t they specifically tell Brad not to make any more changes without asking first? This is a huge change.

Who cleans up just because their parents are coming over…especially after working all day?

Ernest T. Bass: “I wonder who that could be?”

Early must have been dad’s idea. Mom would know better…

Maybe it’s someone else?

why do they feel they have to clean up and dress up for Frank and Nancy?

Rinse the soap off your face, Toni, while Brad puts on a clean shirt. Only then answer the doorbell. Whoever it is—especially if it’s Frank and Nancy—can wait a few short moments while you two compose yourselves….

It’s……THE LAND SHARK !!!

I hope its Jonah, to finally take back HIS kid..
