Close to Home by John McPherson for August 09, 2021

Something tells me that’s not going to work worth crap after all that expense and work for the ducting.

Guess Bleeb is caught in the ductwork.

They could have just gotten one of those mini fridges and open or close it as needed.

I’d hate to see anyone waste gasoline like that as it costs more now and is a non renewable resource.

Betcha that’s murder on his car in terms of gas and wear and tear.

The A/C may actually be big enough, but that ductwork don’t cut it.

Too bad that cold air stays low while hot air rises.

Be sure carbon monoxide doesn’t get caught in there

clever, but he might want to get it replaced before his car croaks.

I recently took a survey about possible new car features. One was the ability to use the battery of one’s electric car to supplement a house’s power in an emergency.

My truck’s AC is so strong it could probably do that. Even on the hottest days I can’t run it full blast for long before I either have to turn it down or open a window and let the heat in.

I had a similar problem with my A/C in the high desert of 29 Palms. I used my car A/C to take me to the store and movies on the weekends so I didn’t have to endure the heat in the middle of the day. Worst summer ever.

Redneck engineering at its most creative.

Did it tell your wife that if she kissed it, it would become a prince?

“That’s a great idea Frank… but does it actually work?”

“Well… no, not really. But it does provide a helluva lot faster way to get into the car from the house… fun, too!”

I had a pet frog once, for about an hour. Then it croaked.

More likely died from the exhaust fumes.

And that was cheaper than repairing or replacing it?

Creative. Not cost effective but definitely creative……

The idiot spent more doing that and with the wear-and-tear on his car than he would have spent on a new window unit.

Always a chance of that lovely carbon monoxide “high” with such a setup.

In your face, Ford! You thought your new all-electric F150 which can power a house was a big deal? Hah!

I can’t believe I would have never, never ever, ever thought of this!

You may be a redneck when . . .

They are cool now, but the car make so much noise they can’t get to sleep.

How many BTUs to the gallon?

There’s a long list of things wrong with that idea. Comic physics at work.

I guess that Mr McPherson is on vacation again.

Why not sleep in the car ? Nah too easy.

Even though this cartoon is dated 2011 can’t some add in Bleeb and his fellow travelers?

I am watching Bleeb re-runs that I have recorded on duct tape. :>)
