The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for September 09, 2023

Older, yes. Smarter, no.

“Empty vacuum bag.” That’s right, Timmy… a lot smarter.

Good way to deflate a child’s enthusiasm. Timmy will grow up to be a Burl clone … dull and boring!

and Burl is one year younger than he looks because of repeating 5th grade…!

….Burl’s got a ‘lil edge on the kid……..he had those throwaway drink cups with corn-pone "G’ rated kid-jokes printed on ’em………..a sample: “What did the dog say when he sat on sandpaper? Ruff! RUFF!!”…….Burl memorized ’em all by the time he arrived in middle school…….

The difference is, Timmy will become a mature adult. That ship has sailed for Burl.

The first joke my younger brother learned, but he said; “Why did the dog lay out in the sun?”. We all had to laugh….every….time. He’s 62 now and we still tease him about it.

A guy takes his dog into a bar, tells the bartender the dog can talk. The bartender is skeptical, and says if that dog can talk, I’ll give both of you a free beer. The man then says to the dog:

What did the dog say when he sat on sandpaper?

Dog: Ruff! RUFF!!

Man: What’s above us and has shingles on it?

Roof, ROOF!!

Who was the best baseball player of all time?

(Babe) Roo, ROO!!

They get kicked out of the bar, the dog says…, “You think I should have said DiMaggio?”

Whatever payback Timmy has planned for this family, I hope he gets away with it! lol

I still don’t know why Timmy spends so much time with these fools. Doesn’t he have parents?

Timmy will be smarter then all of you

Good joykill there, Burl!

Such a jerk!
