Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for November 20, 2023

Where’s Crankshaft?

From the cabinet where most of us keep our assorted cleansers? Yeah, that lemon-scented Dran-o should be just the thing to silence her critics.

As god is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly, and I pray this arc “only” lasts 6 days. Also, Lillian drank all the rum, and now she has to tap into her emergency backup booze of White Claw.

Wake the kids and phone the neighbors! Hilarity is about to ensue!

I love her! She always winds up doing goofy stuff.

Crank will be so disappointed when he tries a lemon flavored one.

sounds like the old bat has never heard of liquor stores & the Eternal Bottle of Rum appeared miraculously in her cabinet.

no

I didn’t know Ms. Lillian made rum balls.

HIS Eagle Will Soon Soar Again! One Nation Under GOD! GOD Bless America!

ewwwww

Ever heard of a liquor store?

Time to call BoozeDash.

Several years ago a couple families got together for a communal 4th of July party. Sort of thing where everyone brings something. One lady had bought some lemonade for the kids. Fortunately we noticed it was Mike’s before any got distributed (to the kids).

Remind me to NEVER try to eat anything she makes.

Be cheaper…….don’t tell them the secret ingredient.

I substitute recipes all the time. Just yesterday I was making the cranberry sauce for TKgiving. I had to substitute apple juice for orange juice.

That doesn’t sound very good.

No! Go out and buy another bottle of rum!

Let’s see. Will we have three days of rum ball suspense, culminating in her forgetting the cranberries on Thursday for the 20th Thanksgiving in a row?

That sent shivers down my spine. Yetch

Go over to Aunty Acid’s house. She has plenty of Rum to spare, as well as Whiskey, Gin, Vodka, Vermouth, Scotch, Brandy, Tequila, Sake, Schnapps, Bourbon, Cognac, Absinthe, and White Lightning, to name just a few in her pantry.

another fossil week !!!

It just might give it a kick, Lillian!

If only there were stores where you could go exchange money for rum!

Sweet mother of Hades, she’s going to run down to the liquor store, run home with her purchase and call herself a rumrunner.

5% to 10% Alcohol Lemon versus 40% (80 proof) Rum. This thing will never fly Orville!

People will just throw them out. Her bad baking is notorious.

“Ladies and Gentlemen — LET’S GET READY TO RUM BAL-L-L-L-L-L!”

Lil, it might be an interesting change, or,not.

I’ve never had Rum Balls cause I don’t drink, but I’m sure Lemon Balls wouldn’t be the same.
