    Thee would be no IQ anywhere in this picture if Julie hadn’t pasted it in for a Find-It.

    I had high hopes for this new character, Bill, raising the collective IQ of the neighborhood…at least into the visible range, that’s all I ask.

    But no, he is proving himself Pennyworthy.

    And here he is, socialising with them anyway, after all their crude insults.

    Actually, there must be a lot of Pennys out there…

    The Kraft company is always thinking up ways to make their macaroni and cheese faster and easier…

    Who wants to go to all the trouble of boiling some water in a pot and cooking noodles, then stirring in actual milk and butter (or butter-like substance) and magic super-cheese powder.

    So they made plastic cups of dry stuff, to which you add water, and then nuke ’em.

    But if THAT’s too hard I think you can get something almost-but-not-quite-like macaroni and cheese in plastic cups already pre-cooked… just nuke till warm.

    I’m glad that Joy is still taking it easy. Dust behind the TV one day, dust the top the next. I wonder if she has such a rigid schedule for replacing TP rolls?Ah, the menu. Straight from carb heaven. Maybe she could open a can of corn to go with the lasagna and mac’n’cheese. There’s always instant potatos to consider with brown gravy mix in a packet. Yum!

    Must be a dream… that’s why the living room is on the wrong side of the telephone, eh? Or didn’t y’all notice that?

    Let’s all petition Cooking Channel to get Joy her own show: “Joy’s TIRED OF Cooking”..Is new neighbour Bill polygomous? Why would anyone want a second mate that is comfortable in Crustwood? Maybe one is M or MIL? Ma will be furious and lobby to live with Joy and Burl? Questions, questions.

    I think I need to go out in the sunshine.

    And you might wonder why America is fat? I didn’t think so. Go to Costco and look in some of the carts. If the government took away microwaves half (more?) would starve. However I love mac n cheese (gluten free) occasionally. And that is the operative word, its not for every day. End of lecture!

    All combined I.Q.s in this comic = ZERO. You can’t find something that doesn’t exist.

    I was going to say something about Bill crossing over to the dark side, but Susan beat me to it. The lasagna takes over an hour to cook, I am surprised they even bought it.

    I make my cheese and macaroni with sour cream instead of milk and butter. Maybe a little cayenne pepper for kick. Of course it must have cut-up weenies in it, the way my mom used to make it.

    Find the I.Q.? If we go to another strip perhaps we can, but with the Penny’s and company, that’s like looking for a green tinted contact lens on a lawn covered in tall green grass! :-D
