Rubes by Leigh Rubin for October 03, 2021

If that’s a stone crab then hey! Make a crab-dash. I don’t see any hammers!

Sideways? Is that the gag, Leigh??

When Son was pre-crawl age, we’d set him on the floor and he’d wiggle around until he was looking at something interesting. Then he’d try to go to it. Alas, the only way he could move around was by rolling. Sideways. He’d re-orient and do it again. About the 2nd or 3rd time, he’d break into cries of absolute RAGE. We were ALL glad when he figured out how to crawl.

I see the problem. Look at the sign. Sideways is okay, but you need to walk like an Egyptian.

I miss the 80s.

Unfortunately, his name is Louis.

It was far toooo clever for me. But hey, listen to ‘crabsody blues’ by AC-DC, perhaps their very best song!

We’re gonna have have some crab blooie.

I’ve seen crabs walk forwards. They’re just faster sideways.
