No not me,why do you ask?

I could see that coming.

Out which door did Earl shake Roscoe’s blanket? (Think Bob Dylan, Opal in the final panel.)

Now Opal has to take him outside a shake him off.

WOOF!

“You don’t shake into the wind …”I thought Jim Croce sang “spit”Maybe they’re right and I am loosing it

Looks like Roscoe is about to drop a duece

That wasn’t in the instructions!

Earl wanted a little hair of the dog.

Don’t eat the yellow snow OR spit against the wind,,,

Could be worse…. Couldn’t it?

You don’t shake a dirty blanket or rug because the end-snap will throw it all back into your face, regardless of which way the wind’s blowing. You need a place to hang it and use something to beat the crap outta it! (and stand up-wind of the detritus)

Earl needs to be vacuumed. The dog looks like Linus when Lucy gets his blanket away from him.

Well, you weren’t specific about the details of how Earl was to shake it, Opal.

“Always throw the slops to leeward!”

Profound mightaswellbe, “ask not from where the wind blows, it blows at thee!”
