Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for September 13, 2011

Okay, Abner, where’s Lum?

Sometimes it’s better to sleep in the car.

Guess I am strange sounds nice to me… no honking horns, home made quilts, peace and quiet and lots of stars… something you don’t get in the big motels….

If they have a good mattress, go for it.

I rather have more comfort. Though hotel beds in general are hard and have to watch out for bed bugs.

I’ve been to Jottem Down, Texas. Just a wide spot in the road and a road sign that people are always stealing.

This is wonderful! I write and draw the “Lum and Abner” comic strip which was recently added to “ComicsSherpa” and when I saw this continuity in “Gasoline Alley,” my first thought was “Lum and Abner!” And this is so much like Abner! I can answer just about every L&A question!

You can learn lots of Lum and Abner trivia at the National Lum and Abner Society web site: www.lumandabnersociety.org

I miss the Lum & Abner radio show….

I was just told if you go to the bottom of this page, under “THE UNIVERSAL UCLICK NETWORK” and click “Comics Sherpa” that “Lum and Abner” will show up there. Why there and not on the main page? My guess is it is so recently added it hasn’t been moved to that page. Who knows?
