The Sunday Funny Papers
1. Clowning around
2. Best land shark singing telegram in town
3. Don’t try this at home
4. The usual suspects
5. Family resemblances
6. Life at the beach is a bowl of cherries
7. Beachcomber
Photos: 1. My sister Trish struck up a conversation with a clown while waiting for our friend Nancy and I to pick her up at a designated meeting place. We found her on the sidewalk with him waving to us when we arrived and before heading out to the North End to eat Italian food. 2. Jim's daughter Val and longtime family friend, Ernie, with the singing telegram shark at my brother Joey’s 4th of July cookout. His kids hired the shark to sing Happy 50th birthday to him and their mother. 3. Curious is my middle name. 4. Which float would you trust? 5. My nephew Patrick and I have something in common. Read what it is HERE. 6. Beach snack. 7. I do like to comb the beach for shells, rocks, and driftwood, but sometimes I need a comb for other reasons, like THIS!

Couldn't do the links, but does this mean you are beachcombers?

The link works fine when I try it. It's a Youtube video clip of my sister and I getting giddy and messing each other's hair up. Maybe the link on the post before this one on #2 will work for you, zhoen.

Great post, Colleen! I loved the picture of Trish w/ the clown - she's a knockout!

She even looks good with faux red hair! We always say Trish looks like Meg Ryan and Sherry looks like Goldie Hawn.
