He must have been drifting through the Dry Tortugas when it happened.

A little dry humor, eh?

Dry and salty.

Speaking of which, I better get Belinda out of the smokehouse before she eats me out of house and home. You should see the sparks coming from that carving fork and butcher knife. It looks like there's a blacksmith at work out there!

I saw a little blurb about the autopsy on our sailing mummy last night. The doc's have determined he'd only been dead for a week.

So much for the idea that the sea breeze is good for you. It also explains why people who live in Florida gradually come to resemble lizards.

I'd bet that there was a foil hat found just out of reach. Once he realized what was happening to him out of New Mexico, he just didn't have time to get to the hat to put it on. RIP.

I know how my ex works, and this has all the signs.

No doubt about it, Al.

BTW, Belinda to admitted she injected your brie with penguin venom in revenge for your building LegoLand at Cypress Gardens. She and the girls are heading your way in a convertible '69 Chevelle they swiped from my barn. Are there any unused owl burrows in your neighborhood she doesn't know about you can hide in?
