That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for February 15, 2021

No one had the heart to tell Jim that his hat did not go with his coat.

No one would sit next to Ken because of his man spreading.

Hour number 14 into the upper class version of the Snipe Hunt.

That embarrassing moment when you realize you really don’t know what the term “business casual” means…

Every man’s nightmare; she’s been in the store for more than an hour, and there’s not a thing he can do about it.

guy trying to calculate how many steps to the loo after his 10th tequila shot…

Ken’s a-thinkin’ that life is a bore/ since nobody fights no more/ h’it’s all jest DE-bates/ while all of us waits/ fer the outbreak of Civil War.

Or mebbe he thinks whut I’m thinkin’/ how absurd to absorb Mister Lincoln/ with Buchanan an’ such/ an’ the dolt they call “Dutch”/- but at least it’s a EX-cuse fer drinkin’..

My caption: Lincoln’s body double awaiting the call to the Ford Theatre that never came

Poor Ken is in tedium’s throes/ when Barbi must “powder her nose”/ he can’t understand/ that her pees must be planned/ while he merely whips out his hose.

Well, when in Hades is Godot gonna get here?

Could be worse if he wore a Trump wig….

Oh dear, the 8.15 is cancelled again

John waiting for the President’s Day Parade to start.

The mime version of “Well, isn’t that a heck of a note!”

It’s not “President’s Day”. It’s Washington’s Birthday. Look up Uniform Monday Holiday Act (1968).

Somewhere in America,someone is missing a section of their stove pipe.

Time to get out his béer and sarnies from under his hat

Well, no more adventures with Queen Victoria. I wonder if The New Yorker is hiring.

All dressed and ready to go…now where did I leave my hat?

“Waitin’ for the Robert E. Lee..”

WIFE OFF CAMERA: I TOLD YOU IF YOU WORE THAT HAT YOU’D GET SOOT ON YOUR SUIT! NOW LOOK AT YA!

Waiting for the politicians to develop a backbone depressed the hell out of Ken.

Red Skeleton’s early refined version of Freddie the Freeloader.

People don’t even know what it’s about…..

Ken was superbly dressed top hat and all only to be told Barbie had absconded withGI Joe!

Look for the guy with the Oakland Raiders cap on to score some weed. The police under cover man couldn’t figure what went wrong.

♫ If you’re blue and you don’t know where to go to Why don’t you go where fashion sits? Puttin’ on the ritz ♫

What Abe Lincoln would’ve looked like if he was from the South.

I’m Lincoln, wanna see my log?

Waiting for Trump’s healthcare plan. I’ll give it one more month – but that’s it!

The used carriage salesman waiting for his next customer on the President’s Day sale.

Ken decided to wear his yellow suit to the banquet. It wasn’t stylish, but it did a bang up job of hiding food stains.
