Pickles by Brian Crane for December 31, 2021

Earl you really know how to push Opal’s buttons. And not in a good way.

Smelly socks in her nose. Really! You should know better.

I love foot tickles. My wife would do them after I showered, but they lost sensitivity.

Let’s shoot off some fireworks!

He did watch his step, Opal, right into your lap.

It’s a good thing that he just put on fresh clean socks?

My husband said he wouldn’t make it to 2022, and he didn’t.

I’d actually agree with Opal on this one…say it tomorrow, Earl…

Happy New Year ! Opal is the pork done cooking ?

Wishing everyone a Happy, Healthy New Year!!

I recently switched to black crew socks and I can even wear them with dress shoes.

And I never thought I’d collect Social Security! Been eight years.

New year resolution: don’t rag on ERBEN2/cmerb as often. How many days into 2022 can i make it???

This’ll keep you awake. Your welcome. Wake me when it’s over. For breakfast.

Lots of ppl don’t live til 2022 because ppl are STUPID without masks not doing 6 feet apart I hope this crap will be over by Spring but I doubt it!!

Ew, Earl! Some things never change! LOL

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

HIPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I’ve always said that if I knew I was gonna live this long, I’d have taken better care of myself! … Then, again, … I’d have missed out on all the fun I had, so … never mind!

Every second counts

Depends where they are.. it’s already 2022 in Australia.

This surprising move by Earl is way out of character. I imagine Mr. Crane liked the gag, so he had E. and O. act it out, when it might have fit better in Sally Forth or Zits, with Jeremy and Sara.

Hmm this makes me wonder… How old are they supposed to be? I remember when the year 2000 looked far away and exotic to be in a new century… and here we are 22 years later. Remember all the Y2K hype?? haha! What a joke! Happy New Year everyone!

Well it has been the year of living dangerously.

Where’s Roscoe? Oh, he’s probably asleep. Woof! Woof!

Earl not a great idea with smelly socks.For me my birthday and with New Years Eve bad time to celebrate a birthday over shadowed by celebrations for a new year then birthday is over with. Mine started wonderful my hubby bought me better then any diamonds, my birthstone necklace and earrings, then going out to celebrate my sister/husband joining us, here for cupcakes and icecream, and then ending watching ABC Rocking Eve and recording CBS Nashville. Our weather is great for today then much later a winter weather is coming so staying in New Years Day. In two months I will be drawing SS Benefits full. Next if we can stay up past 11 p.m. our time be midnight NY time, we live CST.

Amazing the idea youth have as to how long they’ll live. I wondered if I would make it to 2000 and surprise, I’m still here.

“You won’t have to worry about midnight, it will all be over by then.” “What are you, a doctor?”

Put your head on her lap, you old goat.

Happy New years to all! Please be safe and be well! ;^)

Uh Ohhhhhhhhh……..

Sadly there are many who thought they would only one year ago, but didn’t, my beloved father among them. Curse this pandemic.

I’ve had a painful few months to remind me I’m getting old, but when you consider the alternative …

It’s O.K. I’m ready to go.

Happy New Year Brian ♥ And thank you for all the funnies!
