Pickles by Brian Crane for August 05, 2020

I laughed out loud at this!

I’m thinking about getting a TV with a dial. That ought to increase the amount of exercise we get around here by at least a few percent. Though I’d probably have to hunt REALLY HARD to find one.

Earl, as long as you have a finished book you can get up and put it back on the shelf whence it came.

oh, that’s a real bummer, Earl

“Maybe tomorrow…”

Have a big glass of water, Earl. Then you can go back for your book.

On back to your “Throne Room” Earl!

Meanwhile, in today’s episode of “LuAnn”….

Small dwellings ?

In the long run Earl you will get there !

thanks for the help, Opal…

Yeah, that’s way to far for a book—-or anything else!

It’s been 25 years since we got rid of cable. In that time, we have mostly only watched TV when at a hotel. Just don’t miss it. Of course, there’s the internet, so many things are still available.

SAD ! Again , today no Roscoe or the cute Kitty on the floor or the couch .

How badly do ya wanna know what happens next, Earl?

They keep books in the bathroom?

Reel men keep their best books in the bathroom, then go fishing.

Oh, Opal, since you are up, can you go…..

God forbid, Earl should get up and get the other book…my goodness, don’t hurt yourself, Earl!

Yeah, easier just to reread the one you have

Drive around the town where I live in south Texas and you can find crt tvs on the curb. I cannot guarantee that they will be functional. Our thrift shop closed or I could get you a bunch,

library doors been locked for months (covid sucks #42)

“It’s only 19 feet for you.”

“Can I see that book for a minute?”

“Sure!”

[WHACK!]

It’s not the distance.. it’s the getting up out of the chair that is the hard part.

Earl you are lazy, just go back to bathroom and get your book. I have never read a book in the bathroom, neither has my hubby.

If the library finds out Earl reads their books in the bathroom, he could lose his library card or they may make him buy the books.

Earl GET UP off your patootie and go back into the bathroom and get the new book. Gosh I am usually on your side with things but this time I think you need to GET UP AND DO IT NOW!!!

Dad read Agatha Christie paperbacks in the loo. He had fags and an ashtray in there too.

For my grandparents, that would truly be a problem. They aren’t as mobile as they used to be
