Pre-Halloween Fun

 

So yeah, I got your postcard. The Royal Mail got it through without any extra help from you this time. Maybe they’re learning?

1. I have a picture of that marker and I remember the first time I read that doggerel. Reminded a guy of a friend of his named Ebby Thatcher. I got to eat lunch at a table these two fellows shared one day in Brooklyn. Ebby’s friend had passed on but his widow Lois was still alive at the time. I’ll always cherish the memory of that sandwich and cup of coffee. God bless that Hampshire Grenadier.

3. @Dennis:
   Heh…
   That’s the first thing that popped into my head as well when I read the post. The not-quite-verbatim version is well know by friends of Lois’ husband. God Bless ‘em all!

4. Sounds like the Bill and Bob Show to me.
