The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 19, 2025

He was full of sweetness.

If he was cremated, wouldn’t he be a chocolate bar now?

But when the remains will be spread I suppose there will be a lot of kids as attendees…

Gone to Piñata paradise!

Lost at the river Sticks. (oK, rhymes with Styx)

They’re crying knowing one of them is next!

By the bag or by the box,

Your best candy buy is Brach’s.

Very old commercial jingle

What’s really hurtful is they know it was a hit job

Is the urn painted or can you see his actual innards?

It was a horrible death , Hung from a tree branch than beaten with a stick until he fell to the ground to be ripped apart ! Oh the agony !

More proof that candy is dandy.

RIP. Rest In Pieces.

He never did get his diabetes under control.

Pinata. Tale of the donkey.

Just put him on my desk. He won’t be there long…

He will be missed…. except that he wasn’t. Apparently.

It was a smashing funeral.

There’s a silver lining to this tragedy. They won’t have to buy candy for Halloween.

Another one goes on the mantel …..RIP

“I know it’s hard, Candy, but we’ll get through this.”
