    Aaaand we’re back to Ed being a thoughtless and deliberate jerk to his neighbors. It was nice while it lasted.

    Crossing the line, Cranky single-handedly breaks the neighborhood truce.

    If he gets hit by a school bus I might actually finally laugh

    In the area I live in, landscapers are around every day with the leaf blowers, whether there is a single leaf on the lawn or an accumulation. It’s a particularly enjoyable experience when they blow directly into the streets as you are driving by.

    This is almost as exciting as Truck and his messed up finger.

    Not so fast! Those leaves are on YOUR lawn, so they are YOUR responsibility!

    Actually, I would appreciate that. The more leaves the better.

    Good thing he got that small scattering of leaves off his lawn! Otherwise, you know what would happen. Well actually, nothing, other than they might break down and provide some nutrients.

    I’m confused. Where’s Lillian? Isn’t this her comic strip now? /s

    Years ago, in a Crankshaft_/Funky Winkerbean crossover, Lillian thought about putting her house up for sale and moving into a retirement home. Best Actress Award Winner Les Moore and his spouse the Not Quite Dead Yet St. Lisa almost bought Lillian’s house. Lillian changed her mind about moving and kept the house, leaving the Moore’s to find a home in Westview.

    Wouldn’t it have been great to have seen the Best Actress Award Winner Les Moore, the victim of Ed’s endless shenanigans? (contented sigh)

    Why do those “leaves” look like burned-up copies of Fahrenheit 451?

    Be weird if the next strip was a guy running out with a flamethrower, screaming “The LEAVES! THIS is when the BURNINGS begin!”
