Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 22, 2024

Cell abrate tonight, come on!

I prefer: “Jingle Bells, Batman smells! Robin laid an egg! The Batmobile has lost a wheel, so the Joker gets away…”

What did he do now?

Love it.

should be a silent night!

Man, what happened to peace on Earth, good will toward men, huh?

It may be fun to have Andy locked away. But somebody’s gonna have to make a meal for him.

Got a good laugh out of this one!

♫♪

I’m dreaming of a wine spritzer.

Just like the ones I had last night.

Yer a regular local celebrity, Andrew.

I prefer making up my own limericks.

Check them out if you like, Capper’s. I post them daily over on Ballard Street.

Peace on Earth, good will toward men is not a correct Bible verse. Misquoted and people never bother to read correct phase. Verse Luke 2:14 Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his (LORD’S) favor rests.

♫ Jingle Bells Shotgun Shells ♫

♫ Rabbits All The Way ♫

♫ Oh What Fun It Is To Ride ♫

♫ In A Four Door Chevrolet ♫

Not to put too fine a point at it, but a song about sleigh riding really has little to nothing to do with Christmas.

(just saying)

Mr. Capps version is quite spirited in his own way.

When I was little I made up the following: “Good King Wence’s car backed out

On a piece of Stephen

Stephen lay all round about

Smashed all flat and bleeding

Good King Wence was heard to say

As he looked at Stephen

‘Why is that man lying there

Smashed all flat and blee-eeding’”

[Hey, was LITTLE!]

A good song for Andy would “I’ll be drunk for Christmas.”

Was he drunk? Was he fighting? Was he drunk AND fighting? No bail Flo, enjoy your Christmas.
