GOING ON EIGHTY( with a tankful of gas ! ) - Roy Delgado



......................

" I suspect the happiest people you know
are the ones who work at being kind, helpful 
and reliable . . . and happiness sneaks into their 
lives while they are busy doing those things.
It is a by-product, never a primary goal. "

- Harold S. Kushner
AMERICAN RABBI

FOOD FOR THOUGHT . . . 
PETER PLUM

DID YOU EVER NOTICE ?  WHEN AT TIMES
YOU KNOW YOU'VE GOTTEN OFF TRACK A LITTLE, 
BUT YOU CAN'T PUT YOUR FINGER ON IT . . . 
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU READ A LITTLE
SOMETHING LIKE THIS . . . 
AND BINGO !  IT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU !
YES, IT IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU !
AT LEAST THAT IS THE WAY 
IT GOES FOR ME !
GOD!, AIN'T IT GREAT !

AND THEN VERY QUICKLY YOU GET BACK ON TRACK . . . 

HEY, HE GAVE US ANOTHER ONE . . . DIDN'T PROMISE
IT TO US, BUT HERE IT IS ! ( ANOTHER DAY ! )

ADVISOR ALERT ! . . . 
TODAY, OCTOBER 13, I'M GOING ON 80 !
GEEZ, it sounds old !
( The BEST part, I don't FEEL old ! )

....................

Back to my drawing board where I belong.

    "Many Happy Returns" (wonder what the meaning is for that idiom? Reincarnation?) Happy Birthday Roy! You're a good egg! (hmmm...I wonder what is meant by that?)

      Hi Len, I love your panel. I've been a follower from way back . . . Your stuff is FUNNY, I mean FUNNY HA-HA Not FUNNY THE NEW YORKER !
      Many Happy Returns ? Yea, What the hell does THAT mean ! The same as your other two illustrations.

      GAG: I guy returns a pkg. to a Dept. Store RETURNS Window and the guy behind the window says " Many Happy Returns " ? No, I know.

    Happy Birthday Roy!!!
    You haven't lost a step in your gags or your drawings. They may even be getting better. Keep it up. I love them!
    A "good" egg opposed to a "spoiled" egg?!?! You fit the "good"!
    Take care.
    Best,
    Gary Z.

      Gary,
      There's an old saying . . . You're either GREEN and GROWING, or . . . RIPE and ROTTING . . . . Be careful the way you CHOOSE to live !
