Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for January 09, 2012

Good plan there Slimbo.

Maybe we’ll find out who the car thief is now.

I say give Slim his own cartoon strip and get back to GA story lines.

Man. I love JS’ artwork, but he has managed to make even Slim’s upper lip look fat.

A storyline about Joel cartin’ Rufus off to the doctor for his prostate exam would be a welcome change.

I thought they wrapped up the car theft story line. Didn’t they say they had caught the car thieves when Clovia was caught with the counterfeit money?

This is pushing it. This seems like a lost strip. The car thief is caught off panel, the new car thief steals their car off panel. We should be reading the off panels.

Oak Ridge Boy61I don’t think it was Slim’s plan. I think that it will just show the limits of his mechanical abilities.

I guess now is the time to call the police and have them arrest anyone they find with a truck that’s dropped its transmission.

I remember those shows. Gomer Pyle always optimistic.

I hope the thief is Clovia’s biker chick first cousin Eve.

I love the background and atmosphere. I can smell that garage!

when i was younger i had a friend that had to live in some apartments in a very iffy part of town. one spring he went back east to visit family. to keep his pick up from being stolen. he pulled the drive shaft out of it.

When I lived in a bad neighborhood, I used to remove the battery from my car every night.

What is wrong with Slim as a character? Stop reading it if you don’t like it

After all these decades, one would think that Slim could fix a car by now.
