Pickles by Brian Crane for December 19, 2015

Oooh, impressive insight, Earl! Good job!

Earl’s motto is: if you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bulls**t!

Move over, Earl. I got a bag we can share. :)

Tummy ache alert !

it’s tempting, but the thought of all that sat fat going into my system…..ugh…..besides, I’d be sick for sure

Oink! Oink!

And he is looking for another bag.

We never called them Hershey Kisses, We called them Candy Kisses.

I know people who do the same with ice cream or chips or cookies, so why not Hershey Kisses, especially the cherry flavored ones!

Vegas ViperNo, those were [notes] “wrapped in paper” [end notes] not foil. (late 1940s, one of the Hanks)

I have to agree with Paul. Why spend your life avoiding some of the simple pleasures. I am 86 years old and just had my annual physical witch I passed with flying colors. My Cardiologist said my heart was is good shape and I didn’t have to worry about a heart attack.

I’m like Earl in that I indulge myself with chocolate and other things. Maybe not to the extent that he does, but I don’t worry about it. I’ve gotten this far in life without major problems.

indeed. while there is a balance, i don’t want the doctor forcing medication on me to keep me well, an occasional indulgence is a good idea. when you say i would love to eat blank as a last meal, and never get to have it, then what’s the point of living? i’m stealing from a nora ephron interview, here

And a whole batch of Opal’s home made cookies.

I suspect he has lots of company in doing that, lol.

You’re absolutely right!

Much like Earl, the more I learn about myself, the more I come to realize how fascinating I am. For example, it is fascinating how quickly I put people to sleep telling them how fascinating I am.

sorry, Night-Gaunt49, but I just can’t agree. But then, the Doctors want me to maintain or even gain weight while on Chemo/radiation…so maybe I’m just an exception
