Fun Monday






Peter is our host with the most this week.
Here are his instructions for FUN:

I want you to tell us your favorite joke and/or show us
your favorite cartoon, don’t worry if there is some
duplication that just means more than one person
found it funny.
So come on and regale us with your best joke and/or
cartoon, remember its New Years Eve and we feel
like a good laugh, before 2008 comes along and does its thing on us.

PS, I've left myself too much time to think about this..... we all have
more than one favorite, Right!! hit us with your best selection!!!!!


This appeared in our newspaper under "Reasons Not to Mess with Children."
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale
to swallow a human because even though it was a very
large mammal its throat was very small.  The little girl
stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.  Irritated,
the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a
human; it was physically impossible.  The little girl said,
"When I get to Heaven I will ask Jonah."  The teacher asked,
"What if Jonah went to hell?"  The little girl replied, "Then
you ask him."

A Major Award


You know how much I like the word "fragile" and this award is very "fra-gi-le."  It came packed in a big, big box with lots of paper.  I could even get inside the box!  And so could my cat.  My new blogger friend Kitten decided to bestow this honor upon me.  What a great Christmas time treat.  We watch this movie continuously on Christmas Day. 

I am passing this award to:
Jeanette-she's on the net
KellyJean-she always makes me laugh
Deborah-she has the best recipes 

Go forth and celebrate!  You've won a major award!

Louis Armstrong - What A Wonderful World

Have a bright blessed day....

What a Wonderful World

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

C'est Si Bon

This song reminds me of my dad. We used to watch Dean Martin together. I would always ask him, what does 'C'est si bon' mean? He would laugh and never really tell me.

Debonair Dad

Here is my dad at age 45, the day I got married.  How debonair, kind of
like Dean Martin?
