Here lies Hector Amos McSpiel Slipped on a tossed banana peel It really was not Hector’s fault He came down hard upon his heel We buried him here in a sturdy vault Written April 8, 2022

This is indeed so funny ! But it happens .... I remember having slipped on a banana peel and was badly injured ! Fortunately I escaped being placed in a vault ! :)

Well, we're certainly happy that didn't happen! I think I have, too, but it was only a tailbone injury!

So true. I think I have a strange sense of humor.
