Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for April 30, 2023

So just print it out again. Also, if that place happens to have a joke for today’s strip, please use it.

With a little rummaging around, they’ll probably find it.

Crank’s safe place is in one of the outdated magazines in the bathroom.

Just how old is his rum?

But what happened to cross-eyed Mary in that pup tent?

Panel 1: Pam says “What are you doing?”

That’s the script for about 90% of all Crankshaft strips, I think.

I have a place like that.

if I could remember where I last saw it, it wouldn’t be lost!

“What are you doing, Dad?”, it’s like her sitcom catchphrase.

“I can’t find my coupon.” “Do you remember where you put it?” “Gee, thanks, I didn’t think about looking where I knew it was. What would I do without you?”

The joke is, there’s no safe place when Krankus is around.

My husband would have loved this strip. He would ask me where something was and add, “Please, don’t tell me you put it in a safe place.”

While she’s looking, can she find my safe place?

Haha! XD
