Pickles by Brian Crane for March 01, 2024

I’ve seen mine. NOT gross, imo. Also not particularly informative to the untrained eye. But then I grew up in a big family with lots of boys (and a couple of girls) and “gross” was what we DID.

When I saw mine, it was pretty gross. Look up Diverticulosis in Wikipedia if you want to see an example.

I have xrays of my new hip, so cool!

Tasteless but not timely.

I always watch on the screen. My insides fascinate me! My last one, they knocked me out. I remember the Dr saying hi and then I woke up in recovery. :) I don’t need another till 2028. But take my advice, Metamucil or some other fiber supplement every day! Your colon will thank you. :)

I hope he’s kidding…

I’m having my next colonoscopy done in the IMAX format.

One time I woke up in the middle of my colonoscopy. That was not a pleasant experience! They gave me more sedative and put me to sleep thankfully.

I saw a colonoscopy picture once. I’ve seen worse, but it was slightly gross.

Problem with Earl is you don’t know if he’s joking or not!

Radar: Welcome home, Col. Potter sir!

Potter: How’s everything?

Radar: Ah, just fine, sir.

Potter: How’s the mare?

Radar: Clean as a whistle, inside and out!

Potter: Good!

BTW, Earl, did the doctor find lead up there?

I am so glad I am not on his Christmas Card List!

It is interesting to see.

Earl will have one enlarged and framed to put on the wall to annoy everyone.

Tell them it’s photos of you spelunking in a pink cave.

Earl passed his exam with flying colors.

I was going to get pictures but the prices at the picture booth were outrageous.

What a good idea. I hadn’t thought of that.

Hard pass…literally….

If you want to find “Colon” in the dictionary, you have to look under “Punctuation”.

“Wishing you as healthy a Christmas as my colon is having; Love, Earl!”

Christmas card, what a great idea! “And in the same country also, there were shepherds, looking up their sheep.”

Do it Earl, what a Christmas card that would be!

Who says the old geezer doesn’t have a sense of humor?

This arc went down the tube fast.

To mark where they removed a non-cancerous polyp, they tattooed a dot on my colon wall. Now I take great delight in asking people if they would like to see my tattoo.

A gross refers to a group of 144 items or 12 dozen.

Just sayin’.

Post them on Facebook Earl!

Wow……. SERIOUSLY..???

Surely you’re joshing, Earl!!! LMAO

Oh, this current series is SOOOO making me look forward to next month…

Earl, don’t do that.

Priceless

Anal-Eyes this.

Those are the kind of pictures you send to people you dislike.

I guess it’s because I’m 75 and have had colonoscopies regularly since 1996 that I found this to be the one strip that got a laugh out loud response today.

Attaboy Earl……….

It’s beginning to look a lot like X-lax – every time you go.

It a picture you plainly see of Earl’s colonoscopy

Moving on here.

I recently applied for a loan and was astonished at the amount of financial information I was expected to provide. I gathered all the documents and included a photo from my colonoscopy.

Could be worse, could be pictures of your grandkids.

I was given a photo album.

It will NOT be on the coffee table.

Earl is a man after my own heart …. and even my gut.

And a great watermark for the family year thousand-word letter.

Awww, he’s proud of his healthy colon :)

My doc said I had a beautiful colon.

That is one part of the human body that never expected to be photographed, and might now end up in Colonbook.

I saw mine. Clean as a whistle.

I did something similar when being fitted for my first prosethetic.
