The Elderberries by Corey Pandolph and Phil Frank and Joe Troise for January 18, 2023

as long as it DOESN’T turn into strip poker…they all should be good to go….

Is she using them for money or dice?

I need help on this one. I do see that she has little popsicle sticks in the frozen cubes, but I don’t think that explains anything.

I get that they’re playing in the freezer to cool off from the broken A/C, but wouldn’t they also get locked in? At least, that’s what Three’s Company and countless other sitcoms have taught me.

That makes at least three of us!

I regretfully admit that I am at a loss here, too…

Perhaps I can explain… The Boys are having their poker game in the walk-in cooler, in order to keep cool, and also (more likely) to avoid Ms Overdone. Ludmilla came in to freeze a tray of V-8 juice popsicles. She asked to be dealt in into the next round.
