    Interesting, since the song was not written until 1944.

    After yesterday, it’s hard to find any gun use funny, but this was drawn weeks (if not months) ago. Yes, it made me laugh.

    The firing squad all missed the prisoner entirely? Hacks.

    Looks like the firing squad was as off the mark as the caroler’s were off key.

    …in keeping with the christmas theme, it should have been “little drummer boy” – then you could shoot ME first…

    I’ve thought of this general (NPI) punchline, but Scott gets credit for publicizing it first.

    I’m reminded of the prisoner who asked as his last request to sing his favorite song all the way from start to finish. When the commandant granted the request, the prisoner started singing, “Ninety-nine billion bottles of beer on the wall, ninety-nine billion bottles of beer…”
