Pluggers by Rick McKee for December 18, 2023

The better for you to bounces on, kid.

Yep, the grandkids are noticing, too.

Santa himself should ask for another belt with extra notches.

Not all Pluggers have a Keg for a stomach ;-)

“Blame the cookies, kid”.

The tummy is the same size, child; you are getting bigger.

Plugger’s reply – Ho, Ho, Ho. That’s a result of all the good cooking by Mrs. Claus and all the reindeer meat I eat.

Gross

My brother-in-law was in high school at the time and his youngest sister was in elementary school. He had gone deer hunting and taken a buck. On the way home he stopped and picked up a battery operated flashing light. When he got home he strung the deer up and attached the flashing red light to the nose. When his sister came into the kitchen and asked about his hunt, he told her he’d gotten a funny looking deer and that it was hanging from the tree in the back yard. She went to the window and looking out, shrieked; which brought the rest of the house to see what happened. I’m not sure she’s ever totally forgiven him for that trick and it’s been 45-50 years.

He’s a little thin in the face.

Love the fact that Mr. Brady lives in Centennial, Colorado. Am currently deep into Michener’s “Centennial” Fascinating story.

Did Santa for the first time this year. I need more padding.
