Pickles by Brian Crane for September 17, 2012

Work in general is too hard for Earl.

Get to it Earl. You ain’t getting a new dishwasher.

Earl’s singing the Dirty Dishes Blues.

Opal’s getting lazy in her old age…

That’s a lot of dishes…

Can’t Crane do a better job of connecting speech balloons to the speaker? In print I couldn’t see (other than by context of course) whether it was Earl or Opal.

Rule in my house: Whoever cooks, the other one washes up.( I love to cook ! )

Blue is the new green…

This strip looks pretty today…

It’s not rocket science, Earl.

Linguist: That is why I always choose quartermaster on camping trips – someone else has to collect firewood, clean up, set and strike tents (although I generally do mine to get it done right). No one has complained about my cooking yet, so I suppose that qualifies as fair.

Paper plates and cups?

Lol! It was officially named “the green thing” with my family dishwashers since I can remember. Having 9kids in the family meant I did a lot of them too!

Drying them is hard too.

Coffee-Turtle: Worse. Expense and more waste to fill more landfills at taxpayer expense at home; what you take in has to be taken out in camping.

Get a maid to clean the house and do the dishes. Simple solution Mr. Lazy.
