Grandmapoo Are You Listening?

Okay, so somebody named Grandmapoo (yes, I'm serious - and more importantly, curious where this handle came from) contacted me and asked for some more writings. Specifically, humorous ones. It made me wonder. Was I humorous in my other blatherings? Since nobody ever leaves comments, I have only myself to ask. And my answer invariably is, "I have no idea."

So, this one's for you, G-Poo. Not my best effort, I must admit, but then again, I didn't write it. It's a viral joke my other mother in law sent me.


THE FORGOTTEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

Ed was in big trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was very angry.
She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway
that goes from 0 to 200 in less than 4 seconds, AND IT BETTER BE THERE".

The next morning Ed got up early and left for work. When his wife
woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough, there was
a small box gift wrapped in the middle of the driveway.
Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway,
and brought
the box back in the house.
She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

Funeral services for Ed have been scheduled for Friday




Anybody Out There?

This is a test. This is only a test. If this were a real blog, you would be advised to take shelter in the nearest Big Brother Online Facility . . .

Seriously. Okay, not so seriously. I'm just doing this to see if I can get the stupid main page to shorten and ARCHIVE. It's as long as Methusela was old for gawd's sake.

Chilly says if I wrote more, this wouldn't happen. I'm trying, Chilly ol' buddy, ol' chum. But, right now Big Brother Ebay is taking up all my time. People actually make a living at this?
