The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for September 10, 2011

Joy, Joy, Joy…you are such a dumkopf!

Fingernail?I’m playing the part of Leaky today, while he is occupied elsewhere.

Godd morning all my fellow Crustwoodians, and Marg, I thought I kicked you out yesterday! Oh, that’s right, Susan saved you.

Fingernail….. ?………..( I can’t find it either ! )………Leaky is a HE.?Godd morning.?.Are Joy and Burl gaining wieght…..?…..But…… Who is counting……….Umm……..Has Joy suffered a “Blow out”………. in her britches?

Is Bob trying to put one over on Joy & Burl? Scatt Tissue, an off brand?Oh, I’ll never get the hang of this one.

Least I could do, Marg — And hello all.

Joy’s statement seems dumb — but then again, maybe she thinks, as I did, that for one 200 count bottle, she’d have to pay for TWO 100 count bottles, albeit at the sale price, when she only wanted to buy 100.

If he does mean 200 for the sale price for 100, yeah, she’s as dumb as we’ve always thought.

Love Burl’s shirt. I want one. The front should say “I’m behind you.”

Also love that he’s leaning on the counter.

And that once again, they have no employee of the month.

Does the Scatt tissue say “Ew” in the upper right corner, or am I just projecting how I feel about the name?

Fingernail? How would you recognise a fingernail?

My left middle one, though, right now actually looks sorta like the cup on the Folger’s can, minus the handle….. so …. maybe?

They buy real Folger’s?? I bet it’s hidden at the back of the fridge when anyone comes over.

That’s why Burl bogarts the “Good Coffee” mug.

GymShoe, are you happy today, cos Joy must have rinsed her shirt so many times the orange washed off the flowers?

And Otto, thank you from yesterday! That was sweet.If a bit gullible. LOL

BTW I figured Leaky was most likely male because of the hysterics over the suggestion he put something in his purse…..

And also cos Marg called him “little niece” yesterday.

OK, I don’t have to explain that last one, do I?

Of course, since you gotta keep a sharp eye on these two, THAT could all be subterfuge as well, right Marg?

I WOULD be surprised if someone name Marguerite were male, but remember, we ARE playing on the internets.

Lotta weird stuff comes through them tubes.

I think maybe you need 200 of them.

Trust me. 1 isn’t enough. Before long, you’ll be wanting a refill.

Fortunately, things like this don’t so much. I’ve usually found it before I’ve read the comments.

Scatt tissue? I guess that’s a generic. I noticed that Crust Foods doesn’t accept returns after 8 am but opens at 8 am. Clever.

Good(?) morning everyone? Some of you might want to try the decaf. Just sayin’.

Wait…yesterday Marg and Leaky have a tiff. Today, Leaky is not here and Marg is standing in for him. Does someone need to call Dick Tracy?

Ms. Larson, I thought you pretty clever how you did your hidden puzzle today. I don’t recall any hidden picture done quite that way before. Take a bow.

Thank-you.

Yellow trimming from a fingernail? Must be Burl’s-mine are white. And coffee is one of those things whose smell promises a taste it doesn’t deliver- I like a small expresso with brandy after some meals, but those big cups? They’re useful for this strip tho’.

I am now having my morning coffee……… Here in ILLlinois……….. The only way I can post early is…… is if I am up past 12 AM….. Crustwoodians living on The West Coast….. are usually first…… It seems……….

Susan, I shall attempt to explain. Leaky used an avatar of Rhoda, from ‘The Bad Seed’. I thought he was a girl, and started calling him my little niece Rhoda. I was Aunt Marg. Somehow, we found out he was a guy. Ray_C. might remember that. I do correspond with Leaky, so I knew that he would be absent today. He’s a fun guy, and likes to tease, which I also enjoy. The Roller Derby thing was pretty funny, since I’m 64, and that’s about the last thing I’d be doing. There has been no attempt on either of our parts to seriously deceive.

I should think anyone would need 200 tylenol caps having to deal with them! 200 at once might ease the pain! Or not! :-)

Bob the merchant’s right index fingernail is visible on the countertop.

Fingernail……Could it be the “C” in cola under the box o Biz?

fingernails? two elbows?
