Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for May 18, 2020

At least not more than once.

Ooh! Fifty-two pickup!

Nerwin will pick-up, right, Broomie?

If she wants to play pickup, shouldn’t she be in a singles bar?

Though I think 52 would be a bit young for her.

Throw them up in the air and play “gunfighter” with her zapping finger!

You’ll never be invited to the World Championships in Britain.

I know that game. It’s called “52 Pick-Up.”

No wonder you get stymied.. there are only 51 cards in that deck.. you lost one the last time you had a fit.. remember?

I play the Microsoft Solitaire Collection. Most of the games I lose, and don’t mind as my record is blemished, and another loss doesn’t matter that much. But with Free Cell, I haven’t lost since they came up with their current record keeping system. Now I’m afraid to play it.

With the computer version, the cards go flying when you win.

I HATE the microsoft Solitaire Collection. I just want to start up, play a game once, and quit, I NEVER want to be bothered with statistics or recordkeeping or anything like that, but they won’t leave me the !@#$% ALONE and just let me play, they keep incessantly asking me to make an account and log in and nag me with ads, when all I want is just to play once like the old systems used to allow.

But if I just use real cards, then I can’t restart the same game to try some different options :(

…Playing Solitaire till dawn with a deck of 51 (Statler Brothers – Flowers on the Wall)

I hate to say this. But my mother cheated at Solitaire.

Broomie has a flair for the dramatic (or melodramatic).

Like Gaylord, I used to play solitaire on computer (but don’t anymore)….

Yes you can, it is just more expensive that way
