Michele sent me. You've been posting from your emails again, haven't you? If so, will you send that emial to me? I need to keep laughing at these.

Oh, and thank you for your advise yesterday about my sidebar. I don't have it fixed yet, but I am hot on the trail of whatever it is that's screwing with it...

I told another story tonight. Given that you seem to like my stories, I thought I would let you know...

Have a lovely evening!

Woa...this is funny. I'm going to use some of them lines in my mails. Just to get my friends laughing. My favourite is the first one. *beam*

As usual these are very funny. Just what I needed to end my day that started at 4AM this morning.

I love the attribution on the "Mad Cow Disease" line, Judy. Presumed deceased! Cute.

I second what SRP said. If I have to get up early, at least I can get some laughing in!

Bec said...

Not early here - getting late, but still laughing all the way to Australia! Michele sent me, but I was planning to drop by anyway and say hi (thanks for the fun).

Number 2 and 19 are the great, but they are all hilarious :)

Excellent laughs! Drew Carey is my hero, by the way ;)

These are all good. But I liked No. 1 the best. I love irony. Irony. Not ironing. What's to love about ironing? Sheesh. Some people....

Kim said...

I love famous quotes, thanks for the entertainment this afternoon!

Jamie Dawn said...

Funny stuff, Kenju. There are certainly some witty people in this world. Those one liners are gems.

Karen said...

These are great. Thanks for the chuckles.

I've been thinking of this one on and off all day, Judy: I said, 'Mom, they weren't trying to teach you how to swim.'
