The Nutz family is definitely not the Cleavers, the Waltons or the Bradys. But you'll undoubtedly recognize them anyway. Most likely, they're a lot like the family you grew up in... where the battle for the last chicken leg is comparable to the Battle of Bull Run, sibling rivalry is putting it mildly, and family values usually refers to a coupon book. Soup to Nutz by Rick Stromoski stars hard-working Roy Nutz, his loving wife Pat, and their battling brood - sons Roy-boy and Andrew, daughter Babs and rambunctious dog Rosco.
Stromoski is the seventh in a family of 12 children. Growing up in such a large family has given him an especially developed sense of humor that he has expressed through drawing from the moment he could pick up a pencil. A self-taught cartoonist and humorous illustrator, his work has appeared in national magazines, children's and humor books, newspapers, licensed products, national advertising and network television. Stromoski's greeting cards have become best-sellers for several major companies. He has won four Louie Awards for outstanding greeting card design. He has been nominated for his illustration work by the National Cartoonists Society 12 times and was awarded the Reuben division award for best greeting cards in 1995 and 1998, and for magazine gag cartoons in 1999. An NCS board member since 1997, he was elected president in 2005.

safer if you have to break into the plumbing to fix it later.

a stand-up comedian once did a routine about people at Arm & Hammer trying to come up with new ways to get people to buy their product … “I know, let’s tell them to pour it down their drains!” “Yeh, and also sprinkle it into their garbage!” sheer genius!

Never could get the liquid to work. Always ended up taking the drain apart.

Home improvement TV shows never start with “Today we are going to replace the old corroded clogged drain lines with new no maintenance plastic piping.”

It would help make the garbage better smelling. And it helps keep the refrigerator nice smelling too.

I have a septic tank. I’d never use that stuff. Don’t want to kill all my good bacteria.

I like both the truthfulness and irony of the statement.
