Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for April 26, 2009

We should all compose our own epitaph. Mine shall be “confusion”. K.C.

That’s Princess summerfallwinterspring to you, buddy!

And a Howdy Doody to you.

How about “I told you I was sick!”?

Someone said: “pardon my dust.”

Finally a Sunday GA that I enjoyed. If it wouldn’t cost so much I would love to compose a poem for my headstone.

Mel Blanc’s (the voice of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, etc.) epitaph is “That’s All Folks!”

Redneck’s last words: Hey, y’all, watch this!

There’s a triple headstone in MO that lists the man and his two wives. The wife who outlived the ex had the engraver carve that the first wife isn’t buried here.

Does this yogurt taste funny to you?

Vampire headstone: “Out for lunch.”

If you like this you might enjoy- Epitaphs to Remember by Janet Greene . “Epitaphs to Remember: Remarkable Inscriptions from New England Gravestones” . Epitaphs from when gravestones told a story. . Sorry but these sound more like Burma Shave road signs.Except the last one.

my favorite epitaph: “here lies Rastus Sominy,died of eating hominy,in 1859 anno domini”

“Mama loved Papa, Papa loved women, Mama caught Papa, With two girls in swimming!”

Dorothy Parker said “pardon my dust.” I think “I’d rather be in Philadelphia” was (attributed) to W.C. Fields

here lies Les Moore

4 shots from a 44

no Les

no Moore

Where is Gertie? What about Gertie? I’m so tired of Slim, one day in a row already! Enough! Can’t we get back to someone other than Slim?

Hey, I did like the Sunday, but Dypak is right! ENOUGH of it already!! Where’s the Gertie and Earl storyline? When will it ever BEGIN again?!!! Time to get past this Sunday strip and on with the courtship of Gertie and Earl!! BOOM! Bang! Clatter!!……… Wow, pointless grousing is actually a LOT harder than it looks. I should have worked my way up to it slowly.

OH— and thanks to Saucy1121 for identifying Dorothy Parker as the origin of “pardon my dust.”
