Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for July 24, 2024

Kids (that’s anyone under 110) … don’t try this at home! Or at least use proper safety goggles and keep the kibitzers well on the sidelines.

Sorry fans, a power outage evening has lead to an two-part emergency update for the 24th:

I though Puffmore was at Tobacco War with the Ally Khat, but it turns out they’re forming an alliance of convenience.

Becky will catch up with Zeb any hour now. Relax Nina, maybe take a good stiff pull off th’ jug. It occurs to me that it’s a LOT of work and expense to raise cattle, if all one wants out of life is to lay about and drink corn squeezin’s.

Is Walt angling to expand the family with a stepson ?

He’ll enjoy it even more when he takes that chain-saw to Walt’s throat!

Best day of the week, payday!

Protect your hearing – gotta wear hearing protection!

Well … Walt did explain earlier that he was an old saw at work like this! … :)

PAYDAY! I got $325! Not enough, you owe $600 on your tree trimming bill!

“Cutting edge”? punny!

There was a day when every man and some women (yes I know a few lady lumberjacks, champs all) anyway, we would go out and clean up ourselves.

A crew came to my house to work on some trees so the power lines would be less likely to be affected. Not much has been done but the man said it might be tomorrow.

My favorite day of the week too.
