The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for April 23, 2014

Yeah, Burl’s on the ol’ seefood diet. (yeah, I know, that’s so old it’s got whiskers! HAH!)

Jer’s just full of zingers lately! What’s the occasion? they are all dressed up and sitting at the kitchen table, Oh I know, its a formal dinner!

Burl diets like I do. If it’s chocolate around here, it’s a goner.

Didn’t Joy complain to Slim-Fast once for not helping her loose weight? The same with Burl.. Yea he’s been watching his waist line,( if he can see it) get bigger. Maybe his pants shrunk in the wash? He should get the stretchy kind Joy and Verl wear. Then he can get into them. They could get the button with the elastic on it so he can get his pants buttoned. May need to add another inch to it though..

Burl will never make losing weight requires effort, eating right and exercise.

Crustwoodians eat unhealthy foods and too much of them to ever get in shape.

No that I’m an omnivore again, I still eat only brown grains and such; I expected to need to stop having 2 slices of toast with most meals when I brought back animal fat, but I usually have them and still only 108 today.

Burl’s pants aren’t the only problem. It helps if you can see the buttons and hooks. By the way, if I couldn’t button my pants, I sure would not be standing at the table trying in front of everyone. Maybe if he visited his throne he could reduce circumference long enough to button.

It should be easy for Burl to watch his waistline. It sticks out far enough for him to see it easily!

And the Doctor said, “We’re going to have to diet.”And I said, “Dye it? What color is it now? I haven’tseen it for years.”

…….and a watched spare-tire remains, ever after to be watched some more…..in Burl’s case, anyway!!

Geeze, Jer must have more body hair than Magilla Gorilla……!!!??!!……oh, right, yeah…….

Jerry’s body hair is his persona (and his reluctance to commit – He is SUCH a prize) or Verla would say so anyway.
