    Really? Seriously, would anybody out there, if you found an old video of home movies featuring a close friend’s late wife and son, wrap it up and hand it to them with a “Merry Christmas” and no context or emotional preparation? I personally don’t feel it works dramatically or in real life, but tell me if you think it’s a good idea.

    No, nor do I beat dead horses, unlike Batiuk.

    Could be old home movies that someone transferred to VHS. They’ve been doing that since the late ’80s.

    Hoo boy. Ed’s going to take the tape over to Meckler’s house, only to find Ralph still putting a bicycle together for Tim, isn’t he?

    He uses a pencil.

    I know he was canonically illiterate for much of his adult life, but why is Ed talking about Christmas lights when the box he’s looking in is clearly marked “Christmas tapes”?

    Also, it’s December 19th, and judging from Panel Two’s exterior shot Christmas light one has yet to be strung at Casa De Crankshaft. Better get a move on, fella.

    Lastly, please tell me Ed didn’t uncover one of the videotapes Dead St. Lisa made and left behind for Les and Summer to watch.

    Wait a minute…Ed may have contracted some sort of debilitating condition that could eventually leave him sucking on an oxygen tank, unable to speak, and living in isolation at Bedside Manor Retirement Home?I’m there for it!!!

    Milk or tea can work miracles on stale cookies. Lena’s, though…

    Or—and I’m just speculatin’ here—you could be honest (to a degree) and tell Lena that the cookies weren’t as good as in years past, then ask her about the recipe with hopes of fixing it. Admittedly that wouldn’t be all that funny, but neither is the stale old “Lena’s a lousy cook and doesn’t know it” routine year in and year out.

    On the other hand, here’s Crankshaft!
