J.D. IN HEAVEN

 One could say the Almighty had gotten out his digital camera and snapped this photo of JD Spohn lounging behind the Pearly Gates, showing everybody how it's done. Anyone  that had the pleasure of having JD for a friend knows it's true. 
 This is surely how he would have wanted it. Cowboy hat, boots, camper, BBQ, and toddy in hand. And those trousers look like he may've not had time to get completely out of uniform before it was party time. 
 Not enough guns for JD Spohn, you say? Just one on the right hip. Better check them there boots. And his pockets. And under that hat. 
 Miss you every day, old Poddner. You were a true original and I don't expect to encounter your like again. 
 "Wait a minute," some of you may say, "what makes you so damn sure JD's even in Heaven?"
 Oh, he's there all right. Talked his way in.
