Mary Worth 4167

It's only your second date, and your first date was the worst ever!
What a wonderful evening the other customers must be having.

Don't worry. Karen Moy does not get to make requests for the Charterstone Jukebox. I might add Huey Lewis and the News' "Heart and Soul" to the playlist, but NOT Hoagy Carmichael.

  1. Okay that's like the first "duet" you learn as a super basic beginning piano student..... I can't imagine playing that to impress guests ... Unless I was like 8.

  2. @Catt, perhaps the cardboard cutouts in the background are easily impressed, and they’ll leap to their feet and…uh oh, fall over?

    Enough of this silliness. I want to find out more about green Steven, and his overwhelming stress.

  3. As Ed and Estelle vigorously launch into the second verse, the sound of a large gong is heard.

  4. Nothing says original comic strip writing like two panels full of quoted song lyrics. Any chance this is a copyright violation for which Moy can be sued and forced to cease and desist?

  5. Aw, I like Hoagy. He was awesome in "The Best Years of Our Lives" and "To Have and Have Not." But I can see how these two could sour you on the poor guy.

  6. This strip and rex morgan md neck and neck for most mundane story line so far this year.

  7. Great comments, everyone! I looked up piano duets, thinking KM could use some inspiration. Look at the first suggested duet... https://takelessons.com/blog/piano-duets-famous-z06

  9. For an encore, they will do a spirited rendition of Chopsticks.

  10. Ed: "What a week! Tomorrow morning the walk of shame, in a few days the loan request for $10,000! Gotta love that Estelle."

  11. @Jerry Smith, I think you are on to something here. Bet Ed will need the $10,000 to help pay for the operation for that Pomeranian that made Ed late for dinner.

  13. Now I'm thinking "Seven Year Itch", where they play Chopsticks, and Tom Ewell turns to Marilyn Monroe, and says, "Now I'm going to kiss you very quickly, and very hard." Then they fall off the piano bench. Would that be too much to ask for?

Don't be shy! I'd love to hear what you have to say about Mary Worth. Just keep it clean, that's all I ask. This is a FAMILY FRIENDLY blog. I don't want to moderate comments, but I will if I have to.
