Popeye bought the farm... (poem) by Ed Matlack on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on October 7, 2006

There was a guy who used to eat hamburgers, and a saying of his was, "That was Tuesday." I remember that one, because my Dad used it a lot. O, I know, his name was Wimpy! Wasn't he a friend of Popeye's? Lucky for him, he only eats red meat, not green stuff.
Great humor, Ed. Just what I like.

I used to enjoy Popeye. In Malta we have a Popeye village, the place where they made the film. Now it will be in mourning, half flag flying. Victor
