That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for October 18, 2023

Just as Ludwig and Johanna were about to make coffee, the mood struck.

/// Senior couple sits down in the kitchen.

Sixty years they’ve been wed— still bewitchin’.

Why does neither one mind

the mundane daily grind?

They’ve learned nothin’ gets better from bîtchin’.

Though they’re members of different tribes/

Still she’s putting out lovely vibes../

But in spite of her smile/

Her coffee is vile/

As he’ll when at last he imbibes..

Maybe we can nameour coffeehouse after a character from Moby Dick, how about “Queequeg’s”

Take one of these and I’ll see you in half an hour.

An old, old joke:

A husband confided to his wife of quite a few years that he wanted to buy a fancy new pipe, but just did not have the money to do so.

His wife left the room for a moment, then returned with a jar containing enough money for him to buy what he wanted. “Here, Dear,” she said. “I know the pleasure you take in a good smoke after a hard day’s work. Take this money and buy a pipe. It’s my gift to you.”

The husband was astonished and asked, “How did you get all this money?”

“Well,” his wife admitted, blushing. “It must seem terribly sentimental, but each time we made love over the years I put one coin into this jar. Now, as you can see, it is almost full. And I want you have the money to buy whatever you want.”

The husband looked at all that his loving wife had saved, bit by bit, and exclaimed, “Ach, if I had know you were doing this, I would have given you all of my business!”

If she has an apple, she has a banana.

“And you guarantee this will regrow the hair on my head?”

“I found if I run the pot leaves thru the grinder it smokes much better.”

You don’t like pills? Well, let’s just grind up that Viagra and put it in your coffee

He was wearing coffee goggles when he met her.

When you roofie senior citizen style, you look’em right in the eye and talk about the weather. They won’t notice a thing!

“Madam, the way you crank that grinder, you are causing me to have certain, ahem, unworthy thoughts.”

“I will if you insist, but I’m pretty sure I don’t need to take a morning after pill.”

My first thought was “the lady has remarkably short legs”, but on further review I’ve concluded instead that the artist did an unconvincing job of painting her seated.

Spend a little time making and drinking her coffee then a lot of time alone, going … and going … and going …

It looked, to me, like he was offering her some “snuff.” I’ve known of a couple women who liked to chew. (Ew)

Helga, always believing in good customer service, delivered her “wacky tobaccky” with a smile.

How do you feel about having children?

Again, a larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3206 (October 17, 2023) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger, if you trim what’s after .png from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to the blog entry with my comment and reply pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 7 works by him have been used here, the October 16, 2023, strip being the prior.
