The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 11, 2025

It’s fine, but think of the wind resistance it will cause….

He’s having a shell of a good time

He outgrew it.

I am hungry for cinnamon rolls.

You “snailed” it!

It’s a new Brit Box series version of Upstars/ Downstairs for mollusks.

Wait until zoning finds out he didn’t get a permit….

How’d you get that past the HOA?

Is that where your S car goes?

If he plays hide ’n seek, you could call it a shell game.

How do you get to the second story?

Now he’s got the best of both whorleds.

You do know that this extra load will cause you to be much slower than you are now?

Tell me one.

I want to know who is taking up all the room!

It’s a townhouse now.

Originally he was thinking of a salt cellar, but fortunately realized it was a bad idea.

Reminds me of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Senior’s poem, The Chambered Nautilus, which ends: Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul, // As the swift seasons roll! // Leave thy low-vaulted past! // Let each new temple, nobler than the last, // Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast, // Till thou at length art free, // Leaving thine outgrown shell by life’s unresting sea!

Yes, two, and both are pure fiction … a little salt on that?

How much did he have to shell out for that?

Nice shellplex.

in the backyard he’s building a fallout shellter…

Storeys

Anything special in the “spare bedroom?”
