Agnes by Tony Cochran for November 12, 2012

There isn’t really a Lawrence Welk shaped niche waiting to be filled.

Even Weird Al dumped the accordian.

I’m surprised Agnes had access to “Febreze”. By her standards, it’s pricy. And didn’t she spend $2.00 last week on makeup? I mean, suddenly she’s throwing money around like Nancy’s Rollo.

Eat your heart out, Sir Paul.

Never thought I’d see Uncle Al referenced in Agnes…

Uncle Al and Captain Wendy I watched them as a child over 50 years ago.

Uncle Al and Capt. Windy started when the station had some time to fill up. He grabbed a few kids that were visiting the station and went on the air. Uncle Al met his wife Capt. Windy at art school. She was added later and would “fly” in, wearing her cape. In later shows she would just walk in. They did commercials for Mama’s cookies and Barq’s soda. I didn’t like them because they were sappy. I am amazed that anybody in comic land would know about this couple. It makes me wonder if Tony lived in Cincinnati or knew somebody who did. “Coolness” ! lol

…that accordian, in combination with Agnes’ shorter skirts, will have her leading a parade in no time…

Yeah, I used to watch Uncle Al and Captain Windy when I was a kid in Dayton 40 years ago.

Agnes would have loved J.P. Patches. He was on KVOS-TV in the sixities. and the 70’s. and I don’t think he ever really retired until he passed. .that accordian will provide Agnes with a good upper body workout.

What Wiwo said. Uncle Al for them was coffee time for me.

Use an accordian, go to prison.

Seriously, Tony…how do you know about Uncle Al?
