Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for April 24, 2013

At least he didn’t throw up on her.

When I was much younger, I knew a guy who did just that. She said no. Geeeesh, some guys never get a break.

so, apparently she had plenty of warning

Should have been a clue that he wasn’t husband material.

I’ve always assumed that Flo must’ve been drunk when she accepted Andy’s proposal!@Number SixNice Monkey Nuts and we’re all looking forward to Bloodhounds.@afficianadoI was going to mention that my favorite Mr. Bean was him playing with the nativity seen, but you beat me to it! To me, that’s one of the funniest sketches I’ve ever seen. (I also like the one where he decides to paint his flat with exploding paint cans to finish it quick-like.)

Cheap shot, Flo. Andy has very fond memories of the days when he was courting you…

And yet she still accepted.

That’s Andy :)

Wet and Wild Wednesday Hugs ((((((( CAPPERS ! )))))))

Just something I have noticed…First night back from a trip, your own bed feels good, and you are glad to be back in it.Second night back, it feels even better and you sleep the sleep of the righteous ( or even just self-righteous ) …lol…do ya think 12 hours is too much sleep for a granny?sure feels good this morning!…now I wanna go tease someone…heheheeeee

And Florrie regretted saying ‘I do’ ever since…

Pity she doesn’t have a time machine.

Number Three ! It is a delight to hear from you ! Can’t explain here how I thought I lost my whole email account yesterday, but suffice to say, False Alarm !That is the album. Not a big country fan but I like hunks and chunks here and there. Even bought a Porter Waggoner record once upon a time. I believe that was before he showcased the young Dolly Parton. I don’t have ‘sniffles’ but certainly have the kind of snow and cold that brings on such things. I hope your away time was good and that your meds are doing what they are supposed to. Nice of you to put “John Henry’s Hammer” photo on the page.

Thank you! It’s awesome to be back here. I’m really glad you didn’t end up losing your email account after all. Have you still got your ‘Porter Waggoner’ CD?

I’m on a 7 day break from my meds now so I didn’t have to take any yesterday and won’t anymore until Tuesday. I might find out during that break whether they have been working or not.

Glad you liked my image post yesterday… I liked the ‘Hammer’ too.

May you have a pleasant day.

Couldn’t blame him for trying Flo!

.Still Game: ?

Is it me or does Flo’s mean face have more bite lately ?She comes across as more bitter when rebuking Andy these days. Is a divorce pending ?….I bet Chalkie’s cave girl is what Andy saw in Flo back in the old days and he’s been ‘drinking’ that vision ever since..I see that Number Six is retooling Oscar and Wild to a local market. Will they rrrroll their RRRRs too ? Only saw one “Still Game” with the second ready to roll. The outdoor shots are great !  I can see why Sir (McCartney) moved up there. It appears to be a more organic place than the polished gentry down south.  I love the stuff they say on the show too ! The wannabe boxer kid will lose the fight at the mere thought of getting in the ring with “Iron Mike”..How come the so called Beach Boys/Beatles hybrid song was just a Beatle song ??

..&Number Three said,… (a buncha stuff)

Showing my age here…..I bought the 12 inch vinyl of Porter Waggoner in about ‘72 or ’73 and I don’t still have it. I probably should have held onto it, but in comparing that material to Mr. Cash… it was just no contest. I bought it in the first place after one morning when I hopped off the rock stations I usually ‘feed’ on, and gave the country station a try. At the time I had inherited Mom’s old AM table radio as Dad had bought her one with FM so she could get the Jazz station. The song was about touring and made mention of a certain kind of “smoking substance” but in couched terms. I got the meaning, and the song itself was an upbeat tempo.

I am pleased that you don’t have to do a constant chemical infusion with the pills. I get the feeling that your cuz is not enthused about the blood drops as you are since he seems to always be “busy” when donor time comes up. The B.S.&T. record is not too long and the sound has a chunky quality. The weather is much better today. Did my fitness routine early and will hop over to the Household Haz. waste site. Ken says he has a more recent Modesty Blaise reprint book that may or may not be with him today.

why the hell did you marry the bum

Wednesday evening Church Services proves that Minnesota CAN have sun!

rest assured however, that Minnesota and Linda have seen the sun and it is good! Bless you oh Golden Round Orb! Long may your majesty warm us and bring us relief from the frozen white stuff!

Stare at this one for a while..

Do People know Who James Burton is? I just found out. “The Master of the Telecaster”. Played with Dale Hawkins, Ricky Nelson, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Glen Campbell, John Denver, Gram Parsons, Gram Parsons, Emmylou Harris, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis Costello, Roy Orbison, Joni Mitchell, Suzi Quatro, and Vince Gill, to name a few. inducted into the Rockabilly and R&R HOF [by Keith Richards]

I’m like a Turnip in a Turnip Truck with this stuff . . .really falling-into It. Chet Atkins & The Blue Boys Tiger Rag) Oslo 1964 April 15thKinda grinnin’ and really pickin’.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz . . .Burton is feckless but He’s there for support and stays-in the envelope. This Guy can really “shred.” [aka Crackin’?] Albert Lee – Tear It Up . . . .and not a “Gorilla” solo: the rhythm [lead] never stops chugging. Cross-country; not just clacking out of the Truck stop Chug..

Happy rolloverVince Gill & Albert Lee – Little Liza JaneNever to young to find-out you’ve been out-of-It. Or too old? Won’t be the last time. I wonder if this changes Foxworth’s opinion of mi.

Then, Flo, you fell into your dismal life with your eyes open. You could have just said no and have looked for a decent chap. No complaining!
