Anyone got an idea of who she is/was? There's Denver, Croce, and Bono, but the woman?

It's obviously a take off on Hooper.

* I originally posted this in Arlo's Restaurant as Jim Croce was a friend of Arlo's. Also, I think a lot of folks drop by those BBs and don't know about these.

A postings link has her to be Aaliyah or Karen Carpenter. I'd lean toward Aaliyah, but I dunno fer sure. Somebody else had the counter guy as Frank Zappa, but I say definitely Mr. Croce.

Yeah, Bobbi. You may have it there. Someone on the cartoon site pointed out that the men were all 60's to 70's music icons. Laura Nyro would definitely fit into that group!

I don't know who Mr Croce is but I recon the bloke behind the counter is Frank Zappa, the tash is a dead give away.

Thanks for the input.

That's Croce not Zappa. I don't think the girl's Carpenter as she's not thin enough.

Most think it's Nyro. But we'll probably never know.

Definately Croce, Bono and Denver. I think you're on the right track with Laura Nyro. I thought perhaps Carly Simon, but Carly always had her hair parted in the middle at that time, and anyway, if they did Carly, they probably woulda done James Taylor as well!?!

Not to mention that Carly Simon is still alive and everyone else in the picture is deceased,

yeah Zap! Deceased is as deceased does! Good point- (how silly of me!?!) I still listen to Croce and Denver. I guess the fact that they're no longer bodily with us, gets blurred by their wonderful music.

Denver could pass for a young Bill Gates. And can't you all see that the girl is Loreli Gilmore!!!! She doesn't really exit is that the same as being dead?????

And something really deep from that Loreli show......(this kind of trivia could win you something one day)Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm sure that Dragonfly Inn is REALLY The Waltons house! (which is a set in L.A. of course) Goodnight Johnboy.

See what happens when you try to live in Celery time and Vegemite Time at the same time!!
