Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for January 28, 2010

I read about a 95 year old man who lost everything in that Bernie Maddox ponzi scheme and had to get a job! He was a greeter in a supermarket.

The world is full of greedy people.

He’ll have to cut his expenses, trim back his vacation plans, try to shave his debt, comb through his liquid assets, blow-dry his… awww, never mind.

By the way, the barber should be careful not to change that silhouette— don’t touch the cowlicks!

Barbershop doesn’t look very busy…. they can talk

Is iGene’s statement an old joke or the truth. The problem these days is you never really know!?

ScurvyDog1– I can’t get enough of Floyd the barber– such a hilarious and unique TV character. I wear my “Floyd’s Barber Shop” t-shirt so much, people have inquired after it when I don’t have it on. I found it on Zazzle.

We here never heard of Bernie Madoff until news had him on tv. We worked with a financial guy and have investments also receive routine documents where are at on money. Couldn’t invest a lot, soon my husband will start using that money since he will be turning 65 this fall. I will not have insurance since he will be on medicare. What happens when people like me marry someone much older.

I wish they’d make up their minds about Skeezix’s hair color. Blond? white? Blond growing out? White needing a color job? Come on….

I love the reflection in the third panel and Skeezix’s expression.

I live in a small town, but we don’t have a cool old barber shop like that. No matter, I cut my own hair anyway. I’m a big tightwad besides being a big grouch.
