Pickles by Brian Crane for March 19, 2023

Score one for Opal.

Thanks, Opal, for that envisioning.

Delusions of grandeur.

Let’s not be so quick to dismiss a pair of underpants in a dryer. Cats will watch that kind of thing for hours.

Gramma is quick with her cogitating today.

my wife is gentle. he should dump her. quick.

More like: A couple of hamsters spinning in an exercise wheel.

Know that feeling, Earl. More familiar every day.

Better get a glass of water before you get too dehydrated!

Tell the truth Earl, your thoughts die of loneliness!

I have a very hard job, I have to make many decisions every day.

Earl’s got an unbalanced load

I haven’t read a “snort, laugh out loud” comic for awhile.

Pearl came up with a good one Earl! You gotta give her that round.

Why ‘underpants’? They aren’t pants – they are shorts. So why not ‘undershorts’? I guess we can add that word to our others that don’t make sense, such as ’Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway? Stuff like that…

She always brings him back to earth.

Good one, LOL

Cogitating? I think they have pills for that now.

This one is really funny! Thank, Brian.

And sometimes I think that the elastic in those underwear are worn out

Giggle!

And at the cellular level …

….and so it goes….Nelson will grow up with all the smart alecky remarks on the tip of his tongue.

According to my students thinking is definitely the most difficult thing to do.

She nailed it!

I’ve cogitated in my pants before……on several occasions.

Grandma is on the right trail- – - -

A hardworking brain consumes more energy than muscles of equivalent weight (in the same amount of time).

Ooh! That’s where they disappeared.

She NEVER misses an opportunity….

Briefs or boxers???

BION, Hedley Lamarr NEVER said that thoughts were “tumbling around in his head like underpants in a dryer”.

Grandpa, what does cogitating mean?…

All about nothing.

NOTE: Opal is wearing an apron. It’s not a fashion statement, it’s evidence that she is working, probably cleaning, cooking, or doing laundry. Even when she’s sitting on the couch she’s most often knitting or crocheting – creating something useful, no doubt.
