Those “blues” were quite a site & ordeal to get in & out of..... lace up draw string on the backside & 13 buttons on the front side. Wonder why they chose 13 buttons; maybe for 13 original colonies /states???Oh the 13 buttons. Not a bad thing until you have to go really really bad...
That's the story they told us in boot.Wonder why they chose 13 buttons; maybe for 13 original colonies /states???
And where is she that she is pumping her own gas. When it was less than $0.50 there were attendants in sharp pressed uniforms wearing a Texaco Star to pump gas for a pretty girl.
I miss The Far Side. I used to work in a grocery store in Gig Harbor WA, and Gary Larson would shop there. He would come in about once a month, fill 3 or 4 carts with food and stuff and we wouldn’t see him again for a month or so. He was funny and just a bit off similar to his comics. I was one of the few baggers that could have his order ready to go before he finished paying. He would just hand me the keys to his truck and tell me where he parked. I would have everything in the bed by the time he got out to me. Right before he stopped making the comic he came into the store around Xmas time and gave us all a desk calendar. That was the last official new calendar he made. He was one of my favorite customers, and that was even before I knew who he really was.
Neat story. Would have been cool if he signed them! Not sure he was into that.I miss The Far Side. I used to work in a grocery store in Gig Harbor WA, and Gary Larson would shop there.

My favorite is the Wizard of ID...He was funny and just a bit off similar to his comics.
He is making the occasional new cartoon. Check out his website, which is the only place they are published (I think). I read somewhere (probably on the site) that he is enjoyed modern drawing tools and technology. The new ones look different visually, and his sense of humor has changed a bit, IMO....I miss The Far Side...
Poe is one of my favorite writers. They don’t teach him in school any more. I was introduced to him in 6th grade with The Telltale Heart. In my senior year we had to present a poem of our liking to the class and read it aloud. Well I choose The Telltale heart and as I read it I took on the roll of the narrator and as he went insane, I acted the same. That ended up getting us into a class project that had the class split in 2 groups and one was my defense and the other the prosecution. They put me on trial, and when they would talk about the old man, I would start going insane again, but when the questions moved away from that topic I would calm down. It was great fun and I loved the extra credit I got… it was the only time I ever got an “A” out of my English class.Some people just don't have what it takes to pull off dark humor. It takes a lot of creative thinking.
