That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for March 06, 2024

Wilhelm got a head of the competition.

Edward Pierce, Anglican priest by day; debonair artist’s model by night.

Isaac always enjoyed make busts of politicians and other influential men.

And then treating like arm rests.

“Where are the Pez candies?”

When he said he was a bust man I took it a whole different way!

If you take a good look at this bust/

You will notice a trace of mistrust/

For the lack of a body

begets treatment that’s shoddy/

With no body to rot or to rust.///

A bust has no ghost of a chance/

of being aware in advance/

Of what garments to wear/

To the evenings affair,

Though it knows it needs no shirt or pants.///

Despite what the poets have said/

There’s no point in looking ahead/

And you needn’t look back./

You need fear no attack/

When you’re somebody already dead.

To shave or not to shave. That’s a question?

His clawhold appears most effective

“Wha???”

“Yes, I keep a collection of the heads of my enemies. I don’t know why you’re looking at me as if it were so unusual”.

Medusa! That was my boss!

Better Than The Clap On Clap Off Clapper

“And after the bookcase has moved, I can slide down the pole to my Man Cave!”

Phrenologists practice dummies weren’t very portable and were pricey as all get out.

“Look at me, I’m the Raven, perched here on Pallas.”

Apparently Bruce knew that you knew so he replaced the bust before you got there.

The bust is busted.

Herman Swartz,inventor of the Pez dispenser.

Nice. This time the entrance to the Batcave is actuated by pulling one ov the weights on the grandfather clock.

Any second now, his left arm will pop out of the robe to scare the children. Francis loved using Thing for practical jokes.

Why not? I think the guys on Antiques Roadshow will jump on the chance to film our evaluation if we take old Uncle Gaius Cassius with us.

Next day auditions for a new taxidermist were scheduled.

I’d like my haircut like his.

“Okay, you were right. There’s no way this’ll fit on the Monopoly board. I’ll be the little Scottie dog.”

“I ask for the head of Alfredo Garcia and you bring me this?”

“I’m sorry, did you say ‘Dr. Manhattan’? Who is Dr. Manhattan? You mean this is Dr. Manhattan? Why are you stepping away like that?”

Guy who hitchhiked carrying a sign that said “California or bust.” Let’s just say, he never made it to California.

And this is Yorick as a young man.

see, put a mustache on it and it looks like Hitler.

“And then you massage the Rogaine into the scalp like this.”

Excuse me! Does anybody have something to remove super glue?

The thing from the Munsters on a publicity tour.

The stagehands that move the bookcase are on their coffee break

no, no…that bust has the button to the poles to the Bat Cave under it, not the passageway button!

There’s an extra head in here. Does this look like the one you lost at the political rally?

Thursday:

A reading from “Tropic of Cancer/

May be a real mood enhancer/

But when it’s being read/

To you on your death bed/

It probably isn’t the answer.
