Pickles by Brian Crane for December 01, 2014

I wonder if anyone in my life thinks this?

I wonder what Nelson’s [unseen and unmentioned] other grandparents are like.

You can say that again Opal.

Earl IS a great role model(one way or the other)

Hmmm. I thought he had a mustache, but here he does not. http://www.jokelibrary.net/xOtherAtoM/halloween/supp-pickles2.gif

Nelson, bet you can’t grow hair on the tops of your ears like Grandpa.

Opal needs some new clothes for Christmas!

‘Dan’ used to make an apperance every so often (Nelson’s dad).

; ) At least his pants are up around his waist where they belong…

Being retired and no longer having to impress anyone, I only tuck my shirt in for VERY special occasions (some weddings and funerals), and then only to please my wife rather than to impress anyone. I know some folks will view my attitude as selfishness. They’re right; after many years of being responsible for the welfare of others and therefore feeling obligated to “fit in,” I now have free reign to enjoy the lifestyle of my own choosing without being concerned with what anyone else thinks.

As for you Nelson…if you want to get ahead in life, you’ll probably have to tuck your shirt in to meet other people’s requirements. You might even have to wear one of those stupid accessories called a necktie. Sheesh, kid, it’s a sartorial jungle out there.

That is so sweet!
