The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for February 17, 2024

Oh. A little plastic sword. Hard to tell.

But which one of them will be able to remove it.

Coupla beavers working their way thru an old deserted tavern found the bar tender.

♪♫ In short, there’s simply not

A more congenial spot

Tis happy-hour endlessly

Right here at Camelot ♪♫

Surrounding him are the “Idlers of the King.”

Turning water to vodka.

That little sword is in perfect condition, it´s really cherry!

For some reason, the phrase, “Plucking the cherry” came to mind.

We’re Knights of the Round Table.

We dance whene’er we’re able.

We do routines and chorus scenes

With footwork impeccable.

We dine well here in Camelot.

We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.

Knights Templar can help…

And his body was taken to Avalon from where he will arise when England needs him again.

If he can pull the little plastic sword from the cherry stone, he will be awarded the crown royal

I went to camelot once. Didn’t buy any. The camels were too expensive.

It was a Cherry of a Job though.

“Let’s not go to Camelot. Tis a silly place.”

Shouldn’t the sword in the cherry stone be on a Round Table?

If successful he will be known as Sir Mixalot.

Not without a Round Table, Mr. Lancelot du Lac, and this time, if you leave Guinivere alone you may get your title restored.

Stone fruit!

Arthur was curious so he hired Sir Veillance.

It’ll be hard to pull the sword out of the bar because it’s scotch guarded.

that legend was part of local mixology…

If he triumphs, it will cause quite a stir.

I see a couple people have already noted the appropriateness of a cherry, as it is a stone fruit.

I hear it was a real cherry of a job.
