This was an odd little sequence I did back in the summer of ’97. I am not sure if it’s ever run on the Web or not. I still remember that when it ran I received an angry email from a reader who castigated me, a “rich cartoonist,” for making fun of people who can’t afford to save for retirement. Without addressing any of the fallacies within his complaint, I never will understand why people with absolutely no sense of humor read the comics. Of course, if I want to read that kind of stuff today, I don’t have to wait for a letter or even an email. I can read comments any day of the week. (I don’t mean you people here!)

Debbe, are you ok?
Hi, Mindy!
I think, Ghost and Jerry, the Stones are not drinking from the same fountain Dick Clark does…but Barry Manilow and Rod Stewart are.
What’s the old joke, that after the nuclear war the only things left living will be cockroaches and Keith Richards?
Trapper Jean, the joke I heard included politicians and trial lawyers (aka ambulance chasers).
Good morning Villagers…..
Jean, I had heard that too, the only two things left living would be cockroaches and Richards. Do you remember the story he told about smoking his father’s ashes? It turned out not to be true, but I wouldn’t put anything past him.
Jerry, I’m fine…just sitting here thinking about the stupid choices my son makes. Last night he went out with Davey….drinking, and went to Brooks Bridge (infamous hangout in this county), they decided to take a whiz off the bridge, Ian turned his head, felt the nose piece on his glasses fall off, then his glasses fell off….they looked, but I’m sure they are at the bottom of the river. So much for his plans for E’ville. And he is blind as a bat.
So he’ll be borrowing money from The Boss to get new glasses.
Talked to him on the phone, at least he made it to work….told him to think of the things he did have…ME, a roof over his head, a job and a boss who will help him out.
GR 😉 do you pace yourself to the beat of that song….my heart would give out on me 🙂
Off today…husband is going to put new shocks on car, going in to see Mom
