    Pick the pocket lint off first before using..Summer’s Eve Cologne? Is she hoping to “get lucky” with Burl tonight??? (Sorry….get lucky and Burl DO NOT belong in the same sentence).

    Good Morning, Leaky and Marg and Simpsonfan ….and any later-arriving Crustwood denizens.

    I agree with Marg, Leaky … great to see you back in Crustwood.

    AND I agree with Leaky, Marg … BE CAREFUL out there.Um…Leaky, when you said “good bye for a bit” to Marg. did you only mean cos she’s leaving, or that you’re going away again too?

    Never enough dunce caps to go round….. never, never enough.

    A fine establishment, in which they dine… there’s a bottle of “B-1” sauce on the table.That’s probably the rejected batches from the A-1 Sauce factory, specially bottled for sale through Dollar General.Is it really Denny’s…. or did Dale, or all of them, bring a stolen Denny’s mug from home?

    Not as silly as you’d think….Might be one of those places that leaves a refill pot on the table…

    One of them actually orders coffee, and they all get endless “refills.”

    I think this is our crew’s favourite eatery. Why? Because there’s “mild” sauce and “B-1” sauce on the table. Just the kind of almost acceptable place they’d like.As to the re-usable toothpick, I’d rather not think about it. If Dale is willing to use it and Burl to get it back, who am I to complain? But the combination of “Summer’s Eve xxxx and cologne” and Joy is too much. I think I’ll go blind myself.

    Good morning all.

    OK…. just had to pop back in to say that, much to my horror, Burl and Dale may have an equal when it comes to being the grossest restaurant patrons. Check out this guy in today’s HERMAN!

    Joke’s on Dale. Burl’s been using it to pick the hair out of the drain.

    A matchbook to pick your teeth?? I never heard of that. Don’t they have toothpicks on the table for them to steal and reuse later? I’ll see your ewwws and add an Oh Ick!

    Truly, this is one of those days for which Julie must plan our use of brain bleach (guess I’m glad I can have nothing but water this morning before I go to blood drawing at 8)

    I do think I remember my dad having a sterling toothpick which could be sterilized and I thought THAT was icky.

    And my parents liked Lawry’s with all their proprietary sauces that were also horrid. Oh, and noone mentioned that Burl is also scratching- everything today is ICK! And Susan – I’ll have to check that cartoon (not one of my favs)

    BURL has it right….. Having somthing crammed between teath is like having a splinter…. Best to cary a pick/flosser…. Easy to hide using it by pretending to blow your hose in a napkin…. Even better if the napkin is cloth…. ! ! !

    I must be slow today. The only ‘find it’ I can find is Marlene’s earring. Anyone find another?

    I gotta remember to read this before lunch. I had to clean up my vomit yesterday too. Marg/Susan—Is that case of brain bleach I ordered on its way? If not, please overnight it.

    Every New Year’s I put a toothpick lying out in every room so I will always have one handy. I prefer the plastic ones that include a flosser. I also put several in the ashtray of my car. I replace them whenever the flosser wears through or the end breaks off the plastic ones. I replace the wooden ones when the tips become too frayed and soggy. However I would never use anyone else’s, nor would I offer mine to guests – however much they pleaded.

    Glad that I had a late breakfast in the deli area of the grocery. I bought the yogurt and banana in other areas of the grocery and had my blood draw in their pharmacy, but otherwise I would have eaten in the car and temp is already 90 (this week id well above normal). Nothing more to say about today’s toon.

    I think the matchbook thing was from 40’s and 50s (back when all establishments had free matchbooks on the tables with their ads, and smoking was encouraged).

    Um, how to say this tactfully…Summer’s Eve is a feminine hygiene product, not a cologne, unless they now also sell a cologne I’m unaware of. So wearing a shirt that says Summer’s Eve….eeeewwww!

    The reason I don’t have guests is because the last one I had attacked me when when we shared a shower, she almost overpowered me – pinned me against the door. I suppose women find me so attractive because of my dental hygiene, for in addition to being well picked and flossed, I rinse (a familiar term in this milieu,) with hydrogen peroxide every day.

    Sorry, Susan; I did not notice the note was blue but had no trouble w A to Z list (shaving is no worse that much that these folks do). When I first check in in AM I can barely get my eyes open (especially today with no citrus) ; I ate breakfast about 9AM -VERY late (was still starving for a RB sandwich at noon)
