Johnny B. Goode

I just filled my car’s gas tank. Uggghhh! The prices are outrageous.

I am reminded of the following joke Johnny Carson told when gas prices were high in the mid-1970’s during one of his infamous monologues:

“I have got bad news and good news.

The bad news is that Martians have landed.

The good news is that they pee gasoline.”

This joke had me laughing for hours as a young adolescent. Just thinking of it could make me laugh out loud. And I guess it still does.

I miss Johnny.
