Close to Home by John McPherson for July 23, 2021

Are they going to bury him upright as well.

An upstanding performer

“I’m dyin’ heah!”

“I’ll be here all week, folks.”

He gave himself a Standing ovation!

Bleeb, you were hard to find. ( at least for me)

If he was a stand up comedian in this life he’ll kill ’em in the next! ;D

Who’s laughing now?

Reminds me of Harcourt Fenton (Harry) Mudd and his wife Stella.

“Harcourt Fenton Mudd! Have you been drinking again …”

Knock ‘em dead!

I don’t see the juke box he is supposed to be propped up beside. (yup, a Joe Diffie plug)

Aaaaaaaand Howard just did a faceplant! Y’all tilted him to far forward!

That’s a stiff if I ever saw one.

He was also a stand up guy.

that would be creepy!

He was never funnier.

This way the money won’t fall out of his pockets!

Hello – is this microphone on?

A laugh track loop was requested by Howard himself.

Wouldn’t that freak you out at the viewing.

Then, as now, not funny…

Looks a little like Henny “Take my wife…..no, seriously” Youngman! ;o}

Careful that he doesn’t pull a Gallagher stunt.

…but seriously, folks …

What’s the purpose of the single top door versus the two door top? Is the single top usually used when someone isn’t having an open casket???

Don’t forget to tip the mortician

“Dying is easy; comedy is hard.”

Stop me if you heard this one before but this will kill you….

His act never died….except for last night!

He specializes in dead pan humor.

Waving back at you Bleeb! No, you may NOT heckle the poor man. He’s beyond that! :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PATSNOZZLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

This must be in Puerto Rico. They have buried a few people standing, in motorcycles and even in an all terrain vehicle. Must be the Caribbean heat…

And like most comedians these days who rely on swearing, spite, insults and so on, he died a death
