Lynn’sNotes*My dad had a friend who’d had surgery on his throat. The result was that he couldn’t speak. He had learned to talk by what Dad said was called, “an educated burp.” This fascinated my brother and I, so Dad challenged us to see how much of the alphabet we could recite in one long burp. Unimpressed, Mom told us off—saying we should have better things to do with our time. As soon as she was out of earshot, Dad, my brother and I continued our efforts. Yes, Dad didn’t have to do much to convince Alan and I, and all the kids in the neighborhood that he was one of us.
It is ‘funny’, that my daughter used to be a ‘star-quality’ ‘burper’ but now that she has a child, she does everything she can to discourage him from doing it ! ! ! !
Lynn’s printed sound effects are outstanding. Where else in comicdom will you see the words giggle and guffaw used in the same sentence? It’s great……….. ;-)
