Pickles by Brian Crane for November 01, 2024

You got off lightly, if they didn’t egg your house Opal

Maybe Earl remembered to buy candy, but he ate it.

I’m surprised they didn’t smash them all over the sidewalk.

Our neighbor throws the imperfects over the garden fence into the “deer accessible” part of his yard. The deer take several bites from each, leaving the rest to rot and maybe create volunteer plants.

Don’t stand too close to the window, they might throw one at you and one of those big suckers would break it.

What’s wrong with zucchinis?

It’s a start

Why is it that, for 364 days a year, parents tell their children “Never accept candy from strangers”, but then one day a year, they tell them “Go and demand candy from strangers”?

People who grow zucchini deserver to have this problem.

Not surprising, Earl!

We always handed out full size chocolate bars and there was one large group of teens, that we had watched grow up over about 10 or 11 years.

I always told them to come back at the end of the night, then we gave them all of our leftover chocolate.

Unlike some of our neighbors, we were never been egged or teepeed once :-))

Fertilizer!

here’s a thought, cut your garden in half

We forgot until the last minute, so I had to make a run to Walmart. The place was a madhouse. Apparently a lot of other people put it off until too late too.

Opal’s knees are evidently so gross that they got blacked out in Panel #1.

I told my dog this morning, “We survived Halloween!” But actually, we haven’t had any trick or treators here for decades!
