The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original

It's the wedge cut that every female in America had after she was in the 1976 Olympics. See new avatar.

That picture is so-o-o-o funny!

I have naturally curly hair, which was always the bane of my existance back then. To acheive the look, I used Dippity-Do and wrapped my hair around my head at night. Worked pretty well, too

[DingoGirl]

Dippity-Do!!!!! now THAT is a blast from the past!!!

[Mtndog]

I wanted to BE Dorothy hamill so bad! Still do.. she's so cute and perky yet elegant!

I love the band idea and accept the position of lyricist. So we have a singer, Miss Olivia, who also plays guitar and daniel who plays guitar. So now all we need are drums (pots and pans will do) and bass. AND A NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A very clever name.

They could be Olivia and the Dingos!

Or Olivia and the Silly yaks

or Swinging From Chandeliers

[nikki-uk]

Dippity-Do!!!!!

Sounds like something you'd do at a barn dance!!

Cosmo Olivia and the Swinging Dingo Silly Yaks

BTW isn't the word DINGO such a fun word, and so useful for so many things? I do like to say it

Dippity-do was a very strong, stiff gel-like goop in a jar, used to "manage" hair. I guess one of the first hair gel products. VERY stiff and crazy, I believe that hair could virtually NOT move with that stuff on. makes me laugh to think of it.

Um, did you all know that I can sing? and pretty well? I can sing harmony for the band, on the days when we do Bluegrass and old blues (Dinah Washington, etc.).

[CarlaB]

You really don't want me to sing ... but I can play the flute. I always have to remind myself at Mass NOT to sing if there's not a flute part for a piece of music ... there's a microphone right in front of my face, singing would be a very bad idea!!

Cosmo Olivia and the Swinging Dingo Silly Yaks

Perfect!! (sounds kind of naughty too! - I'm conjuring up a mental image of swinging dingoes!! )

I can sing harmony for the band, on the days when we do Bluegrass and old blues (Dinah Washington, etc.).

Susie on backing vocals and harmonies then!

Carla on the flute! (NO SINGING PLEASE!)

I'll have to ask Daniel if he can have a go of the harmonica - but no vocals (he can't sing for toffee either ...will have to break it to him gently )

I spoke to my Olivia today (niece) and she chose your name Susie Q. I told her we were naming a band after her because at 3 EVERYTHING IS ABOUT HER!

Susie you can sing? You are talented. I want Patti on tambourine. Somehow that's why I picture

Carla on flute, Susie and Olivia singing, Daniel on guitar, Patti on tambourine, now all we need is a bada%*& drummer and bassist.

I'll volunteer to be a stage dancer- I do lovely interpretive dance Almost as good as

but Angus much prefers my Open Original Shared Link

I'm also a good roadie (read Groupie). I've seen every band my husband has ever been in!

If I sing, I sing very loudly to punish God for the voice He gave me.

:lol: :lol: You could be the band producer! Where's Richard in all this....his daughter is the star!

[nikki-uk]

Patti on tambourine,

..Oh excellent!!!

...Also, Patti & Carla can keep the ..err more spirited members of the band (i.e Olivia, Daniel and Susie Q!) in line and act as surrogate mothers!

(Does Patti know she's in a band yet?? )

Angus much prefers my Open Original Shared Link

I'm with Angus on this.GROOVY!!!

Happy NEW yEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! all you Silly yaks!

Hope everyone had a good NYE and let's get this thread back on track and laughing again. :P

Last night we had a toga party and my BIL showed up after putting the kids to bed in his son's dinosaur sheet. Almost peed my pants.

Today his son and Mookie, the cat, had a stand off on the changing table. They were both just sitting there staring at each other so Cooper dope slapped Mookie (Cooper is 2), Mookie dope slapped Coop back and it went on till they each slapped each other 3 times. I would have KILLED to have seen this!

[DingoGirl]

HAPPY NEW YEAR to you too!! 2007 is going to be great for all of us, I just feel it.

Bev - hysterical, the dino sheets AND the cat/toddler slap! Excellent!

Ok, here's my addition to the songs stuck in your head. Imagine driving down a quiet road and young children start to sing...

THIS IS PRETTY FUNNY and this thread needed to be resurrected!

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the

Earth and populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.

Then using God's great gifts, Satan created Ben and

Jerry's Ice Cream and Krispy Creme Donuts. And Satan said, "You want chocolate with that?"

And Man said, "Yes!" and Woman said, "and as long as you're at it, add some sprinkles." And they gained 10 pounds. And Satan smiled.

And God created the healthful yogurt that Woman

might keep the figure that Man found so fair. And

Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat, and

sugar from the cane and combined them. And Woman

went from size 6 to size 14.

So God said, "Try my fresh green salad." And Satan

presented Thousand-Island Dressing, buttery croutons and garlic toast on the side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.

God then said, "I have sent you heart healthy

vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them." And Satan brought forth deep fried fish and chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man gained more weight and his

cholesterol went through the roof.

God then created a light, fluffy white cake, named

it "Angel Food Cake," and said, "It is good." Satan

then created chocolate cake and named it "Devil's

Food."

God then brought forth running shoes so that His

children might lose those extra pounds. And Satan

gave cable TV with a remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And Man and

Woman laughed and cried before the flickering blue

light and gained pounds.

Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in

fat and brimming with nutrition. And Satan peeled

off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man gained more pounds.

God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume

fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite. And

Satan created McDonald's and its 99-cent double

cheeseburger. Then said, "You want fries with that?" And Man replied, "Yes! And super size them!" And Satan said, "It's all good." And Man went into cardiac arrest.

God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

Then Satan created HMOs. :P :P

[DingoGirl]

ha ha ha ha, I KNOW how funny that is because I sent it to you (and Lynne sent it to me)

Yes, we MUST resurrect this thread!

WHERE IS RICHARD???????

is he broken up with us or something?

I am doing everything I can to keep from cleaning the house.

[Mtndog]

Richard is Really Really Really busy at work until the 22nd, then he'll be back.

Yay!

[nikki-uk]

Richard is Really Really Really busy at work until the 22nd, then he'll be back.

The 22nd!!

Oh my word - what shall we do 'til then?

WORK =

..need some laughs and more sillyness.

Great post Bev - hows the mono??

Susan, I hear you on the 'avoidance of cleaning issue.

I am currently distracting myself from the merde like status of my house by dividing my time by being on here...spending time on Ebay (worryingly addictive ) and watching reruns of CSI.

Mono...the disease that gives you a licking and keeps on ticking!

I am currently watching The Exorcism of Emily Rose to scare myself out of napping!

Did you see this

It is Hilarious!

And, as SusieQ requested, I think we all need a Open Original Shared Link

OMG--I'm sitting here laughing (and it hurts--I'm holding a pillow against my stomach) That is too funny

Bev, I know I missed a lot, but do you have mono? I knew you weren't feeling well.

[DingoGirl]

Thanks Bev, for helping the techno-challenged and posting the Toot Tone. If we combine that mechanism with teh charcoal fart filter thingy, I think we're onto something.

Patti! You might have to stay away from the Silly Yak thread during your convalesence!!!
