Had a ‘72 Dart that was kind of Avocado!

Hey Binkley, put that avacado in a safe place to make sure that Steve Dallas does not turn your Dad into a bowl guacamole to go with the tequila shots he is doing while on a bender.

I moved into my new house and it had an avocado colored stove! Kitchen was my first redo.

Oh my, a talking avocado. Talk about anxieties. Better hide it or someone will consume it.

When life gives you avocados, make some guacamole.

I had an avocado bathroom suite. Showed every soap and shampoo streak. Not our choice!

I remember our kids being tested on their ability to memorize dates instead of actually understanding history. In fact, I was taught much the same way. I learned history much later.

was this a ‘pop’ quiz because if he failed he lost his ‘pop’

Mike DID get the correct date.

for the record, binkley did have the date correct…

It could have been worse. It could have been a turnip or a beet.

I love that John Houseman was the “Grand Quizzer”! ;)

Poor Binkley. Such anxieties.

I am genuinely surprised that this strip isn’t mentioned on Calvin Coolidge’s Wikipedia entry as part of his cultural influence.

Yeah… that happened to me once. Just before I was turned into a skate-boarding frog. It was a rough time for me for sure.

Serves you right, Young Binkley. Like guacamole?

(Sorry, Dad Binkley.)
