Default Weird Uncle Al

Weird Uncle Al heard that Grampa was visiting the family, so he decided to pay a visit also. As per usual, he had to park his VW van around the corner when he visited. His sister always said the flowers painted on it clashed with the silver BMW...

MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.

Believe it or not Claude, I had a neighbor that looked like your Uncle Al. Down to the Bald head and redish orange beard and tash. Wore T-shirts with all kinds of weird sayings on them

Yours looks better than he did.
Neat family. No, not the neighbor, your carving family!

Neat family! The new one looks kinda like Ron Howard (Opie). Where's Grandma?

Each one is cute, but they are really super as a group.
