Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for April 19, 2011

Now that she’s mad hearing what he said the battery won’t be the only thing that gets charged.

Drop the hood on him, Broomie.

A great joke that never stops, blow the horn when he’s under the hood. Been done to me for what seems 1500 years.

When did Broomie buy Shoe’s car?

Right, Plod, I thought of Shoe first thing.

Yeah about 1400 years ago, but her

has 1500 years of practice.

But you can still fix both, can’t you?

Poor Broomie.

That’s not a DeSoto,Plod, much less Cosmo’s car. Yes, Cosmo owns the DeSoto, not Shoe.

I think Broomie’s car is a Plymouth…..or something that resembles a Plymouth. lol

She really ought to take the car (whatever it is) over to Irv. He is much nicer to old cars than Broomie’s current mechanic.

Whatever kind of car it is, there is a good chance it is a l957.

IT’S GOT A SUNDIAL IN THE GRILL

“Broom Hilda” is a pretty good example of how the year in which a comic starts pretty much sets its tone from then on; BH started in the early 1970s, when put-downs were a part of American culture.

Going on appearances, I’d say you’re about to expire.
