Pickles by Brian Crane for April 13, 2023

I agree with Nelson.

If he typed it into a computer, it would be easier to make multiple copies to give to people. Earl may be hold, but I bought my first computer in 1984, so Earl should know how to use them.

She said with asperity.

Whoa. On a TYPEWRITER? Where does he find ribbons?

Since Earl’s car is a 50’s era Studebaker, I’m not surprised he’s pecking away on a typewriter. Would’ve been a stretch for even using say, a Commodore 64.

What memories, a typewriter. The clicking it made, the frustration it caused when the hamers clogged or the inkroll ripped, and using tippex to correct your miss writings.

After my demise and for my posterity I have collated all my lifetime stories into numerous short text files that will be texted to my kids and grandkids one at a time randomly but repetitively from a server hidden under the house. So for years into the future it will appear as though I am still there, a boring old man with unbelievable and unrelatable stories of my life. Only things missing is the old-man odors and bushy eyebrows.

It’s a CYA book.

Taking note of his “assets”!

Posterity or posterior, it’s whatever comes after.

Sort of like Opal’s children’s book?

This makes me wish my grandpa had written a memoir. I only got to know him when he was old and goofy.

Earl wants his thoughts down for Nelson’s benefit.so all his wise sayings are preserved.

Wow – people still use TYPEWRITERS..???????

He want his thoughts to go down in the anals of history.

In 1984, I got a Corona Data Systems transportable (weighs 38lbs). Still in my attic.

That’s what Fonzi would tell Opal: “Sit on it!”

If Earl’s typing a memoir, it should take about 10 minutes and very little ribbon. The man can’t get off his butt to do anything.

Earl’s descendents are the butt of this joke.

ROFLMAO — OMGoodness, this was funny

his posterity is right there, behind him

Is Earl on his posterior for posterity?!

Is she in your memoir?

So, Earl isn’t pulling it out of his posterior?

Earl, just take that Smith Corona and whack Opal on the head with it. Tell the cops the keys got jammed and somehow Opal got in the way. ;-p
