The Ed Family Reunion

I’m Kind of Sorry That I Missed This One;

According to All Four, They Sure Had Fun.

 

 

 

“The Ed Family: A real strange band of characters,

Trudging through life, sharing laughs, miseries,

And toilet seats. And always trying to figure out

The common thread that binds us all together.”

 

Dear Old Ma Ed

 

 

 

Top Left: My Sister Tiger Lily Ed

 

“Pee Wee, you sure missed a good one,

I was so delighted to see the Ed Boys;

I knew if I built it, they would come,

I love bringing our Ed Family, Joy!”

 

Top Right: My Old Cousin Patrick Ed

 

“Kudos to our Hostess, Tiger Lily,

Her huge new four-seater, is Great;

When I got home, I told my spouse,

Honey, I’m buildin us one, for Eight!”

 

Bottom Left: My Brother Jersey Devil Ed

 

“Pee Wee, it was really great seein our sister,

I gotta tell ya, with Lake Tahoe, I was thrilled;

And, would you believe it, Tiger Lily asked me,

To supply all the fuel for her brand new Gas Grill!”

 

Bottom Right: My Old Cousin Tom Ed

 

“Pee Wee, I hope you can see the big smile on my face,

I was bloated, the entire trip out here from Baltimore;

But when I got here, and I sat in that seat behind me,

I just gotta tell ya, I sure ain’t a constipated, no more!”

 

 

Now, I truly am sorry that I missed this epic Ed Family Reunion,

But I would have surely passed on eating anything from that grill;

I refuse to believe, that out on the shores of beautiful Lake Tahoe,

Eating anything drenched in Jersey Swamp Gas, is much of a thrill.

 

And, for anyone who thinks they might be related to The Ed Family,

The next Ed Family Reunion has already been planned for Labor Day;

Contact Cousin Patrick in California, for information and reservations,

His soon to be built Eight-Seater will fill up fast, so please don’t delay.

OH - YEAH - ALMOST FORGOT 'JOISEY'S' BOMBASTIC BOMBLET BURSTS -
DID ALMOST LEVEL THE 'ROCKIES' ... IF CALIFORNICATIA SLIDES OFF
TO BECOME AN ISLAND ... 'WUSS-A-LOT' ED DID IT !!!

LOOKIN' FORWARD TO NEXT REUNION ON 'LABOR DAY' ...
WONDERIN' IF CUZ PAT'S NEW 8-SEATER W/BE OCTAGONAL IN SHAPE?

LEM'ME KNOW WHAT CITY ... MAYBE WE CAN ALL SAVE ON GAS, BY
USIN' JOISEY'S FAMOUS FUMOUS 'FUEL' TO LAUNCE COLORFUL AIR

I note that Jersey conveniently forgot to mention his serious blowout. Damn near set the woods ablaze. Cuz Tom Ed had to donate a whole passel of his second hand Schlitz. The trees didn't seem to mind. Workin' on the permit for the 8 seater. Cuz Patrick

My side still hurts.... this was so funny.

Joyce mentions Love "Binding" the family. Think she missed the point. This old "4 Holer" isn't about "BINDING" In fact, quite the opposite.

Enjoyed this one immensely Ed. Thanks Dick
