The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for May 20, 2022

Tubby goin tubin

That’s ok Burl, when the rug flies off, you will catch it in the face.

Oh, and Jerry, whip him good.

Tommy Bartlett was a famous water ski (plus sky and stage) show in Wisconsin Dells/Lake Denton.

Is “whip him” an aquatic sports term?

Verl must still be at the hair salon…!

I like how he tied two ski belts together to make it all the way around. It’s still a little tight.

I do not want to know where the ‘Find it’ is.

Oh Burl when that Raccoon come off Geri Head hit you in the face Your shorts fall down then

First time I’ve ever heard any of the crew acknowledge that Jerry wears a “toop.” And I still can’t see it as anything but a weird little HAT!

(I was reading this strip for years thinking he was wearing a beret – like some sort of Faux Frenchman. I think I realized what it actually was when we met Jerry’s mom!)

You tube with a ski boat???

Jer’s trunks “fall off”? They’re usually screaming to be peeled off of all that repulsive blubber…….

“Tubin time” means something different at CNN.

The Tommy Bartlett show in the Dells shut down in 2020, a victim of the Covid pandemic.

Y’know, it’s not as if these people aren’t distasteful enough all on their own…
