Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for March 15, 2020

have fun, Shannon

Well, when you can’t find any hand wipes or rubbing alcohol, you make do with what you have.

Hmmm, browsing the home buyers guide eh?

Toni’s hair color is off again. Not blond, too much like Luann’s.

Shannon – You’d make a much better impact if you went out with a wagon full of T.P.

Hmm. Surprisingly current for having been written a couple of weeks ago.

That’s actually pretty cute!

Shannon must think the grass needs to be vacuum.

Begone, you little devil. Greg really skipped over Toni and Brad’s 1st. year of marriage. So much for romance and unbridled sex, and now we have the old couple married 2 years going on 40 years.

The world is better with Shannons in it.

It does seem a little contradictory that the vacuum and the hair dryer are her worries instead of that pail full of liquid and the open electrical plug.

Maybe, and if luck is with us, this panel will have a shocking ending!!

How cute! Wearing fire department coat!

Children with handsaws always help to make the world better….

I’d let her take the vacuum cleaner and the hair dryer. Maybe she’s a graduate of the MacGyver School of Solutions.

? A saw, a ladder, a bucket of soap, a brush, a mop, a rag , a wagon ?

High School, summer, 1st semester, winter break, …… The strip is following the seasons.

She is very ambitious.

Shannon forgot her gas mask.

Smart girl. I like your spunk, Shannon.

I always love to see Brad and Toni interacting with Shannon. This is only a Sunday foible, that won’t go anywhere as an arc, although it really is part of a long arc of Brad and Toni, and connects to Shannon and her dad. When that string will be pushed, if ever, it’s Luannverse time. Nice to see sexy auntie just a little aggravated with little Shannon.

The kid’s got attitude and ambition!

Do us something better Shannon: find out what a-hole thought it was a good idea to bring that virus here!

…or at least unplug the things.

I’m with Tony and hoping that the extension cord ISN’T plugged in at the far end. This ARC will be quite exciting if it is, what with the full bucket of water too.

Shannon seems to be inspired by her aunt and uncle.

Clean your room.

Shannon Unplugged!

Well first, the Covid-19 is a virus. As such there is nothing you can do once you have it except treat the symptoms (just like the flu). In fact medical folks are asking people to not come to the hospital if all you have are the general symptoms as THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO except TREAT THE SYMPTOMS. It s virus. If it develops into pneumonia or other bacterial infections, they can tackle that.

Please use health care responsibly.If you have a fever or cough, please stay home.

There is no cure for this virus, so coming to the hospital with mild symptoms will not help.https://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2020/03/a-plea-from-an-emergency-physician-on-the-front-lines.html?fbclid=IwAR3WgBedN3uAFs1nKwzJmXthP10dfpjW_5xK6ND5f_btI4VoQAd8Dqk8f2A

There is no need to hoard Toilet Paper. If you need 144 rolls for the next few weeks you should have been seeing a doctor before now. (Yes I remember the hoax Johnny Carson started saying there was a TP shortage which became a reality as people hoarded it.)

Only 52 people have died from Covid-19, less than the usual amount from the flu. H1N1 killed over 1000 people before the president acted.

Change the words Coronavirus or Covid-19 to flu and you will see the panic is waaay out of hand.

The most real impact of Covid-19 (beside panic) is the economic impact as we lost and continue to lose the ability to by products made in China (TP is not). 97% of our antibiotics are made in China. Almost all of our electronics are made there.

Maybe it is time to rethink how we as Americans have allowed China to have the ability to hold our country hostage because Americans want CHEAP at ANY COST! We don’t care if workers make our iPhones in sub standard work conditions, we don’t care if our dishes etc are made by people making pennies per hour. WE WANT CHEAP. We don’t care if we lose American jobs – WE WANT CHEAP.

This is a great strip! Look closely. Brad and Toni are looking through a Home Buyers Guide! That means perhaps an exciting new purchase in their future. And just because they have Shannon TODAY doesn’t mean she’s there all the time. They are still newlyweds with plenty of time together. And they both look happy. The question is when they do move will TJ move with them?

I hope they take their time getting pregnant. No need to rush. Plus, they do spend a lot of time with Shannon so they are getting lots of practice in child rearing.

The Sunday strip is a pause in the action to air out some of the old, unused, musty characters from other days. Like Rosa, leading a band of banditos through the mountains of Peru.

Cute little firewomans coat!

Shannon right now is the most sweet and adorable child♡. We need people with the same energy in these days. We need hope for a better present and future. Thanks Greg and Karen for this little message of hope. Together we can make it.

Good for Shannon!

Send her to my house.

That had better have some masks in it.

And leave the saw!

Good for you Shannon!

And the step ladder and the saw….

Please note, Brad and Toni are looking at a home buyer’s guide.

Being partially raised by two first responders has turned Shannon into a better person than her deadbeat self-absorbed dad would have.

And the electrical plug/power strip—still plugged in?

This song seems appropriate today:

She’s out to fight that d##n virus…

You might want to take that saw from her, too…

tomorrow: BUSTED !!!!

“If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make the change.”

Y’all looking for a new house after building Shannon her own room? Good thinking. Sorry, TJ, you’re in charge of sleepovers now.

And, she’s got all those things plugged in.

This will not end with anyone’s world in better condition.

Wow, she’s grumpy. Makes me wonder what got her in a state to actually clean the great outdoors. not common for little kids.

Written too far in advance to be topical,but oddly precognitive.Shannon is on a better track t han most of our politicians.

Sure… Leave the vacuum and hair dryer, but keep the saw.

Shannon forgot her face mask to prevent COVID-19!

Ooh, plugged in electrical devices and a sloshing bucket of water. That does NOT look good.
