Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for August 25, 2012

Guess Mr Slim can’t be too scared if he can make bad puns…

Only about 12 more good boards to go , One or two missing in between !!

Someone just sent me an email about a bridge made of GLASS thousands of feet high in China. The photos of the workers building the framework look just like the bridge in this arc. I’d love to share it with the readers of GA but I don’t have the techie know-how to forward it and I’m not sure if I should give out my email to forward it to any curious readers. It’s really a work of art to people like me who have acriphobia.

Remember, Slim, you were the one in such a big hurry.

@Doctor Toon: Yes that one, but there were a whole lot of photos plus ones showing how workers made the scaffolding, which was really scary.

Slim can be a dim bulb, but he shines next to these two.

Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black?

Here’s a link to the glass bridge in China which is as scary as the bridge in Gasoline Alley. I hope you can open it up:

It’s creeping the crud out of me just looking at the picture!
