Can’t wait to see the resulting picture. Will she ask why? Will she give him a pen (magic marker would be easier to use)? Will he notice? Stay turned, same time, same station – to quote the old radio soap operas endings.

Don’t even think about it, Nelson.

Magic Marker works better. Just sayin’

Evil spawn

Sharpie would be good!

He may draw the constellation of Draco!

Or make it a game with a friend: alternate connecting the dots …

… or have one person number the dots and the second person connect the dots.

Is it going to display the Liberty Bell on his head?

I don’t know Nelson he is down to one “Z” and ight wake up!

Have we seen something like this before?

This sounds like fun ! ….. Glade it is not my bald head ;-)

Roscoe’s expressions are always a joy to see.

Use a Sharpie!

Are they numbered?

The perils of falling asleep with an exposed bald head with freckles!

A pen? Better yet use a felt tip. Sharpie?

Liberty Bell with the crack, perhaps?

I predict the resulting image will reveal Earl to be the true star of this comic (Sorry, cmerb, not Roscoe).

Now who could of seen THAT coming…??

This is why grandparents do not leave pens or pencils out for grandchildren.

Better to ask him why he wants it Opal.

Nelson is brave …I’ll give him that…

This comic falls one day after the 56th anniversary of the November 3, 1965 Dick van Dyke Show episode “Odd but True.” Richie and his friend, Freddy, find Rob napping on the couch with his shirt pulled up a bit showing some freckles on his back. When Freddie connects them with a pen they discover that the freckles are in the shape of the Liberty Bell. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0559791/

Earl can use his head even while napping.

She will give him a pen and help connect the dots.

Sharpie Please

Advantage of being on his head, If it turns out to be nothing, continue and draw hair up there.

Go for it!! There might be some secret message hidden in plain sight.

I expect he will get 666.

Actinic keratoses?

Roscoe is very intrigued by Nelson’s idea.

Make it a sharpie… They work better! :D

My sister’s best friend has ADHD and a lot of freckles on her arms (she’s a redhead)… you can guess where this is going, I bet
