Where’s your seatbelt Earl?

I don’t remember any grandaunt of mine kissing my injuries when I was young. I don’t remember any kissing from them in general. Of course, I didn’t visit my grandparents and their siblings that much.

Nelson is certainly learning something.

Well, that’s the thing with kids, eh? Small organic learning machines … they soak up what they are exposed to.

Although saliva contains a small amount of antibiotics, it’s probably insufficient to stop a cut from becoming infected.

Nice zing on the sister-in-law, Earl.

Except wouldn’t Earl refer to her as “your Aunt Pearl?”

Antibacterial kisses

I remember my parents kissing my wounds when I was a child which was many moons ago

My mother didn’t kiss my wounds. She was a nurse and she put antiseptic on them.

NOW THAT WAS COLD!…. BUT WELL PLAYED EARL!

Kisses make everything better. Ouchies, colds, flu, bad days at work… everything. :)

When did “boo boo’s” become “ouchies”?

@ beviek. Yah, now that you mention it, Earl could be, ‘My favorite Martian’s’ Grampa with those antenna’s.

Aspirin lips – for owies that are more emotional than physical.

Could be a need for Anti-Venom.

very funny

Whatever an “ouchie” is………

Hahahahaha! If Opal had heard you saying that… You would have spent the night on the couch.

LOL xxx

spray windex on it.

It’s amazing that Earl is so rough on Pearl considering that he was in love with her first. Then he dumped her for Opal. Oh well, you have to have something to talk about around the Thanksgiving table!
