How did the rest of it go? One version I recall is that the plumber says that since he makes far more than the preist or rabbi, he offers to pay for both their drinks. The priest says to the plumber, "My, you're kind - thank you so much." And the rabbi likewise says, "Yes, I appreciate this very much - indeed you're kind." All of which totally enrages the crazy bartender, who grabs the plumber and throws him out, as he shouts, "Hey, fella - we don't serve your kind here!" “So a priest, a rabbi and a plumber walk into a bar…” How did the rest of it go?

She was Production Editor for Special Projects, i.e. the Simon & Schuster /Fireside Books. She did some coloring. Later, she moved on to D.C. (1980's); while at this same period, I did production, and ghost-inking for them. I also have taught cartoning & comics and curated shows about/of comics since 1975. more later, Pax, Ellen Vartanoff Hey, Heidi—

The parents of those 2 kids would probably be over joyed to hear him exclaim, "Here come a couple of Bone-Heads now." Jeff Smith fans - or at least Bone fans - should call themselves Bone-Heads.

Though we weren't technically raffling off Jason, he might have considered it for the right person.
