A while back ago we carried a lament that Kilroy hasn’t been seen since the war. But Jim Winegarden of Amherstburg, Ont., says that he found Kilroy, though only by proxy, not long after the war in the freshly-painted washroom of the Albert Street bus terminal in Ottawa. Someone had scrawled:
I laugh with glee, I jump for joy
‘Cause I was here before Kilroy.
Underneath someone else had written:
I hate like hell to spoil your joke,
Kilroy was here but his pencil broke.
