Brawl in the Family

Hank could take Archie but he wouldn’t.

Are these characters in Queens or in Texas? Can’t believe they would drink each other’s brand of beer. It might be an interesting show if they swapped houses temporarily. Or appeared on “Wife Swap.” Geez, now I can’t get that out of my head!

I’m surprised Arch didn’t call him a meat-head.

“Who the hell sent the meathead up here with the Kaopectate AND the Milk of Magnesia. Jezz Edith, that’s like mixin’ prune juice with radiator sealer”.

Between the two, I think Bud’s wiser . . . ☻

That boy ain’t right! (Welcome back, Susan, we missed our PhD of Punnery yesterday!)

So Who’s the Queen of Arlens?

I’m just glad not to be the only one to know who they are (as I would be in some crowds I know).

Thanks, that helped a little.

Night — religious symbolism, long before the ivied halls of Academe.

Purity and strength… unsullied by sin, or earthly desire or thought…therefore used to represent the Mary and her Virgin pregnancy….either she or her womb were also represented by an enclosed, protected garden…sometimes with an ivory tower in it.

Abstracted to denote withdrawal from worldly concerns….therefore eventually applied to those scholarly halls and towers.

I dident know why Hank Hill was there until i read the bottem.On a totaly diferent object is it weird that i just notised that saw is was backwards?
