The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for July 31, 2011

The man without a brain

Good morning all.

On Marlene’s glass (that ones for you Marg :-))

Sure, Burl. Why not make everyone miserable. (Words are too small for me to make them out and the magnifier is off again. Sigh.) Can’t you just imagine Burl as a kid? Ok, probably not. lol

I’m wearing my glasses so I’m good and I could even see the lips..

Yeah, lips on the glass. Joy never washes anything, so they’ve been there since the last ice age. BTW, notice all the stuff Burl (and Joy) are taking on their trip to make themselves comfortable and he wants to force kids to ride half-way cross country cold turkey! Thanks, Burl, I needed some consistency right now, and you are consistently selfish beyond belief. Good morning to you, Leaky.

No, I think the lips are in the second panel on the board next to the words “Car Ride.” That’s just a flower on the mug—but does look a little bit like lips.

Yeah, the kids these days have it made. In my day, we had nothing to look at but miles upon miles of corn while playing the license plate game or the alphabet game.

@Bubujin – and play I spy with animals barns etc – and don’t forget the Burma Shave signs.

I keep a magnifier next to my monitor. I still can’t read Burl’s cup. I Can’t inagine the Pennys having better sheets than any other place … Surprised that no one else commented on Burl saying that when you reach the attraction is the time and place for TV. My grandkids all watch videos in the car. I could never read books in the back seat – gave me motion sickness.

Gocomics keeps congratulating itself. This is on their front page:

Things just keep getting better. We would like to thank you for your continued membership on GoComics.com by giving you another 45 days of the Pro membership. As we work to add even more enhancements to the site, we look forward to your continued feedback and suggestions.

Yet they ignore requests to bring back the magnifier. It ruins the enjoyment of the Sunday strips. I encourage all of you to send Gocomics an email requesting the return of the magnifier. Julie, if you read this, please ask them too!

The lips aren’t on Marlene’s glass, they are on the sign in the second panel. After the words, “car ride” That’s a flower on Marlene’s glass.

The cup says shut up

Pressing “Ctrl” and “+” simultaneously will enlarge the site on most Windows computers. “+” means “=” actually…don’t hit the shift key. I imagine that “Command” “+” will work on a Mac. Most of you can probably figure out how to shrink it back.

@Phil we could also use the edit button back. The word is “MEMBERS”, yes, spelling patrol, I do know how to spell it! LOL!

i haven’t seen Burma Shave, or their signs in 50 years.

it’s also under ‘View’ on firefox, click Zoom

Why are the the Sunday strips so tiny? I can’t read most of it!!!

I’m not sure which features are only available to Pro Members, but if they suddenly reduce the way I see my comics, I’ll be very peeved. I’m on SSA and can’t afford to pay for any additional internnet (I pay plenty for my cable access)
