Pickles by Brian Crane for May 28, 2014

Well, go back, Earl, for the weeds aren’t going to pull themselves.

But weeds just wanna grow too!

He’s probably afraid of pulling something else—like a muscle.

Earl will feel a lot better once the Doctor removes the “Lazy Bone” from his body !

Sell the house and get a condo, like lots of older people. No yard work, more time for fun. Even though Earl’s idea of fun is watching TV.

What is that? Miracle Gro for weeds?

Ah Roundup.. Spray them all, let mother nature sort them out.

ANOTHER GOOD THING BESIDE ROUNDUP IS THE LIQID WEED B GONE AND SPRAY IT ON THE WEEDS. WORKS WELL IN MY YARD AND OTHER PLACES AND IF THER IS COLATERIAL DAMAGE…OH WELL

I’ll take the Dandelion greens…

And poisons like Roundup leach into the soil and end up in waterways where it kills fish, etc., and is not so great for humans, either. Yank them out and get some much needed exercise.

A dreaded chore for many…

My hubby does that to keep wild dandelions down and stickers from growing.

I know what clover is but never heard of cleaver.

Which is the worse chore: pulling weeds or painting? I can’t remember now because I’m old….and it’s ALL a chore!

Where can I get some agent orange?

I was in the backyard one day and I heard a whooshing noise coming from out front..Went out front and the neighbor had a propane torch mounted to a 4 foot long wand blasting weeds in the concrete left and right..I hollered at him “How much?”..he said " 30 dollars ..Home Depot"..I said..“I’m on my way!”

That’s what grandkids are for! Cheap labor!!!!
