Last Kiss by John Lustig for February 17, 2020

As a good Scout you will raise to the occasion.

Don’t worry kid you’ll start preparing for girls soon enough. Broccoli maybe not.

The least prepared for girls are the ones who think they ARE prepared.

I was always prepared for girls, but then my mom found my wallet…

maybe if the scouts had a merit badge program he could bone up on girls…

so to speak…

If I recall correctly ‘Little Annie Fanny’ was originally a lad named ‘Goodman’

As an adult, you can prepare for broccoli. Girls? Never.

Girls, broccoli and the occasional Scoutmaster. Sorry, just a serious note.

“Be prepared! And be careful not to do

Your good deeds when there’s no one watching you

If you’re looking for adventure of a new and different kind

And you come across a Girl Scout who is similarly inclined

Don’t be nervous, don’t be flustered, don’t be scared

Be prepared!"

- Tom Lehrer

Don’t worry kid, your time will come!

Broccoli, OK. But asparagus before girls, no. Pineapple juice and celery.

I got over the girls part, but broccoli is still yucky.

That knot tying may come in handy for when you’re ready for girls, kid….

Both will give you gas.

Send in the Girl Scouts……

I doubt he’s prepared for “The Spanish Inquisition”! Especially “The Comfy Chair”!!!

Keep up the excellent work, John.

…and ‘Scoutmasters’, so we’re told.

Someday he’ll learn to eat both

The kid needs a broccoli brother. I like the flowers and my brother likes the stems. So we trade flowers for stems.

The Boy Scouts did everything to keep you unprepared for any kind of a normal life, as I recall.

“And adults are SO confusing. Mom says to eat the broccoli but not the girls”…

I must say, I have always liked all vegetables, even as a youth, and women too…never went through the abovementioned syndrome

Ahhh, you know you like broccoli…and girls grow on you, eventually.

…and Chapter 11.

Boy Scouts weren’t prepared to deal with $300,000,000 debt
