    Well now, that one actually made me laugh! Nice job, TB. See what you can do when you stick with simple humor starring Ed and the gang and don’t try to flesh out old storylines with FW refugees?

    Where was she yesterday? ED: “Give that dollar back! That was my POWDER-BALL money!” HER: “Money for your…BALL POWDER? Like Gold Bond Medicated?! SHRIEEEEK!” (runs from restaurant)

    Look at what you’re doing, Ed! You must’ve seen liquid in the glass unless you need to have your eyes checked and a new prescription for your glasses.

    Don’t leave your drink cup where the tip jar/cup normally sits. That is how mistakes like that are made. Having said that, I agree with JJ O’Malley’s comments above. Crankshaft is much better without the FW rehashes. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    Ed did not see liquid in that? Why is the drink close to the edge of the counter? Nice try BATTY

    It’s funny because he’s actually tipping with a bill and not a few pennies and nickels.

    Well, Cranky is a generous person……and by the way coffee cups should not be infront of the register!

    Wow, an actual joke today! No smirks, and Ed even smiles in the second panel.

    Now let’s just hope this isn’t Batty’s intro to a week of strips about those darn new-fangled “credit cards,” where you just write the tip at the bottom of the bill… or worse (at least in Batty’s mind), those little terminal things where you just tap a button to leave your tip.

    From now on, Ed won’t tip at this place anymore because he’s afraid of ruining her drink.
