Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for June 10, 2012

“All through his life he never told the truth.Now that he’s dead, he’s lying still!”

Here lies Les Mooer, four slugs from a 44, no Less no More.

fantastic artwork !

Excellent.

Gasoline Alley is still the best . . . on Sundays.

I am glad to see these clever little rhymes again.

“I Told You I Didn’t Feel Good”.

We’ll fill that place next year when our Medicare for seniors runs out…

“Here, hold my beer, and watch what I can do!”

Epithet? Maybe. Or did you mean epitaph?

I’m not sure what she is known as in life. “Susan the Sinister”? “Susan the Fair?” Who knows? Maybe she will tell us what her epithet is.

Susan: Be certain to leave your wishes in your last will & testament and hope your instructions are followed.

REMEMBER MAN AS YOU PASS BY, AS I AM NOW, SO WILL YOU BE…………….REMEMBER MAN, ETERNITY.

You all are great! I wish I could come up with brilliant sayings!

Here lies the body of Mary Lee

Died at the age of a hundred and three

For fifteen years she kept her virginity

(not a bad record…… for this vicinity)

Robert Shaw as Quint in “Jaws” 1975

Susan-

OK, so you DID mean the other word, after all. Hey, I still have problems with that “I afer E except…..” stuff. Except?!? It’s a tough language, actually. Cheers,

“On the whole I’d rather be in Philadelphia.” Supposedly the epitaph of W.C. Fields. (Actually he’s in a mausoleum with just his name and dates.)I love Jack Benny’s epitaph though – “A Gentle Man.”
