Times my pets made me question their intelligence (or mine).

Times my pets made me question their intelligence (or mine).

Meet my friends Haley, the border collie on the left and Daisy, the German shepherd mix on the right. I love them like family, but sometimes can’t help but wonder if they’re actually geniuses in disguise or just the universe’s way of keeping me humble. Whether it’s a dog that seems to have mastered the art of selective hearing or the other who stares off into space  like they’ve unlocked the secrets of the cosmos, these girls have a way…

Funny Friday – humorous videos

Image by Raphael Silva from Pixabay   I don’t spend much time on YouTube, but short amusing videos can be found on the site. Here are a few that you might enjoy. None are side-splitting, but they are amusing.   And to wrap this up, a classic from Ronald Reagan: I hope you enjoyed seeing these. Have a good Friday!  

Funny Friday – The comic genius of Tim Conway

Funny Friday – The comic genius of Tim Conway

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/TimConway I was a big fan of Tim Conway and remember him from Disney films like The Apple Dumpling Gang, among others. What I remember his most for, though, was as a regular on The Carol Burnett Show, where he portrayed numerous characters. It seemed that no matter which role he was cast in, from a depressed and angry vacuum cleaner salesman to a confused plumber, he was funny. He was teamed with Harvey Korman on a regular basis, and…

Funny Friday-Life with a dog.

Funny Friday-Life with a dog.

Image by M J from Pixabay The picture above is a reasonable likeness of Daisy, my family’s newest addition. As you probably know by now, I treasure my canine companions. My border collie, Haley, is a two year old delight, while our German Shepherd pup is, to be charitable, very amusing. That’s not to say she is dumb. Not at all; in fact, the animal is a genius at finding new and original ways of breaking the rules. To tell the truth, I…

Funny Friday – The Great Dane

Funny Friday – The Great Dane

Photo from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Borge To be honest, today’s blog would fit equally well for either Funny Friday or Tuesday Tunes. My subject today is the inimitable Victor Borge, also known as “The Clown Prince of Denmark” and “The Unmelancholy Dane”. I remember crowding around the television to watch him on The Ed Sullivan Show whenever he was scheduled to appear. His routine, that of a bumbling and confused musician of limited talent, always brought plenty of laughs as he fumbled his…

And now for something different

And now for something different

*The Babylon Bee logo is copied from and owned by the Babylon Bee I love the Babylon Bee. For those unfamiliar with this company, Wikipedia describes them as “a conservative Christian news satire website that publishes satirical articles on topics including religion, politics, current events, and public figures,” which is a fairly accurate description. Others accuse them of being far-right, conspiracy theorists, bigots, white supremacists, etc. which, in my humble opinion, is a great, steaming, pile of crap. Babylon Bee…

The Most Incredible Adventure The Screen Has Ever Created!

The Most Incredible Adventure The Screen Has Ever Created!

Above image copied from http://waichingsthoughts81.blogspot.com/2017/04/weekend-tv-movie-review-airplane-1980.html In case you ‘re confused, I want to talk about the movie Airplane!, one of  funniest and most irreverent movies ever made in my humble opinion. The trailer is just a taste of the sheer zaniness of this flick. It was written and directed by Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker. This trio also gave us such gems as The Kentucky Fried Movie and, my all time favorite television series, Police Squad, which spawned the Naked Gun…

(Cue the groans!) Why don’t snowmen get married? Because they…

Funny Friday – Samuel Johnson Edition

Funny Friday – Samuel Johnson Edition

While the name Samuel Johnson might not be a household name in today’s world, he was a prolific and well-known writer in 18th century England. Johnson lived from 1709 to 1784, and wrote in many genres, including plays, poetry, essays, sermons, and literary criticism. His works were so popular that the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography refers to him as “arguably the most distinguished man of letters in English history.” I’ve used quotes from him in my own writing. Today I thought…
