Pickles by Brian Crane for May 07, 2020

Remember to tell him about the rollaway bed, too…

They’re casters all right. Earl’s been cast right out of the room.

oh, now you tell him?

A chair that moves one inch every time you use it can over time be irritating.

Those are some extraordinary casters if they coast that well on carpet!

Oh, my! She is handy!

“I probably should have, but where’s the fun in that?”

Once he gets the hang of it, he can roll that chair out to the refrigerator for a snack and he won’t have to get up out of it – just roll on back to the TV again.

Now known as Earl “Crash” Pickles!

Sorry Earl no brakes ! ;-)

Casters on a recliner?

Earl: “Have a nice trip?”

Good one!

It is a bit like when they tell George Of The Jungle to watch out for that tree.

I have casters on my chairs makes vacuuming much easier.

I find it hard to believe that she’s that handy.

Errrr. NOOOOOO you didn’t Opal!

She would have told him before he sat down, but that’s not the way she rolls.

I had a chair from IKEA that had casters, but they would lock when you sat down. A really annoying feature.

Castaway.

Thanks! I needed that!

That was a dandy so nice to have a good laugh to start the day.First thing my wife said while laughing was “wait till you read Pickles” Love funny comics which are not in the majority any more. Thank you.

Blown away by Maxell.

You did that without Earl’s help?

You’ll never keep Nelson off that thing now!

Think that’s bad? Try putting casters on the separate halves of a king size bed. Was trapped between the two halves for hours…

Earl, cast your bait upon the kitchen and bring me a beer.

Tha ks! I lol’d!

And another example of Opal’s cruelty.

At least he isn’t ass over teacup,yet ;)

If she can put casters on a chair, she can do anything she waits for him to do.

The little teflon bits you can nail to the feet can be fun too.

Wait till she puts casters on Earl’s shoes.

Here’s my favorite casters story, related to an all-time great TV sight gag:

Desi Arnaz, in his memoirs, wrote that casters, then a somewhat new invention, were put on the living room piano for the I Love Lucy episode, “Lucy Meets Superman.” Ricky tries to move the piano away from the living room window, because Lucy is outside the window on the building ledge. Of course, he can’t budge it. Little Ricky says, “Daddy, let Superman do it!” George Reeves, fresh off his appearance as Superman at Little Ricky’s birthday party, effortlessly using his “super strength” to roll the piano out of the way. The stupefied looks on the faces of the other cast members are priceless.

Casters on a recliner that is manually reclined is not a great idea.
