The lead-up to the introduction of Georgia I'mtoolazytothinkofalastname has Mike remind us that Elly has no time to wash the table every day because her children drive her up the wall. 

(Strip Number 336, Original Publication Date, 8 November 1982)

Panel 1: We start things off with Mike staring in blank-eyed confusion at his homework. 

Panel 2: Feeling overwhelmed because his cruel teachers want him to answer the impossible question "2+6=?", he shoves the evil book of numbers and pain aside and slumps down on the table with a melodramatic sigh.

Panel 3: He then yells to Elly that it's time to wash the table again.

Panel 4: That's because his face is stuck to it.

Summary: It's a good job that Lynn is probably stealing this from someone; I'd hate to think that most of what Ruth was there for was to do housework while Lynn sat in front of the television and vegged out.
