The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original

[DingoGirl]

I wish it was Friday.....we have only been at work 3 hrs and I am already ugh!!!! Things are just not going right the past few days, I thought a weekend break would help....some things never go away!

Oh, this is heinous!!!!!! More silly time is the answer.

...yeah....I got my rather regal and middle aged cat Lucy a little cute kitty (Will)

The ungrateful wretch refuses to have anything to do with him - will NOT clean out his litter tray

That's the last time I get her a pet

the regal Lucy rejecting poor Will....he really is just beneath her, isn't he? My mom brought the new Devil Cat into the mix of the two much older, very quiet persians....and now there is regular, everyday savagery there..... Little Georgie terrorizes them.....

<*snicker* it's quite funny>

gahhhhhhhhhhh

and Tom - there's not gonna be a sax player. Too loud. There's going to be a really gorgeous man singing and playing acoustic gee-tar, and I am going to flirt with him.

MORNING SILLEEEEEEEEEZZ!

Unbelievably sunny day.......I wish I could capture a photo of the Sierra Nevada and let you all see it - mygawd - it's like you can TOUCH the mountains, covered with snow....'tis the most beautiful sight.

My Stinker......good gawd, I think I"m giving her too much thyroid medicine. But....I just don't want her poked and prodded any more......... Just gotta get some pain meds for her today from the money-hungry vet.........

Hi Lisa!!!!!!! (clandestine reader )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elye]

and Tom - there's not gonna be a sax player. Too loud. There's going to be a really gorgeous man singing and playing acoustic gee-tar, and I am going to flirt with him.

Well...this could end up being my brother. Did I mention that he plays guitar? Quite well, actually. His real love is the drums, however, but that's a rather unglamoroUs band position, so we'll simply allow him that.

Why are all drummers for bands the same...they look like unemployed construction workers. Guess that's why they're always in the back...

[jerseyangel]

My grandmother got Marion, the least, I think of those evils...

My mom's name is Marion.

Did anyone mention Norma yet?

We are having the most beautiful day--considering it's erly Janury. It's a mild 60, heading to 63 today and 69 tomorrow. I opened lots of windows since it's so sunny

[jerseyangel]

Apparently, it's not Carla's birthday after all--I found out after I started the birthday thread

It's her anniversary of joining the board. Unless they fell on the same day I'm confused, but what's new

So, again Carla--Happy Anniversary

Hope I got it right this time

OMG - he plays guitar.........well, I DO sing harmony rather well, actually. So.....he and I are goign to be the musical entertainment.......this is AWESOME!!!!!!!!! But, he's goign to have to play the songs I tell him - - that's the only catch tom can play sax quietly in the corner, during our breaks.

speaking of singing.....my friend Karen and her husbnad (the prison psych for whom I work) sing up at the ski lodge once or twice a month.....she's asked me repeatedly to sing with them. Well, I don't really know their material.......so she says I HAVE to sing backup on that stupid Amy Winehouse Rehab song.....so I watched it on youtube......was revolted....... (had never heard it because I don't listen to normal music).......she, and it, was wretched - sorry to any Winehouse fans if I offend - I wrote to Karen adn said - - NOOOO NOOOOO NOOOOOOO (the refrain)......these are NOT my people......I am NOT of this debauched era........... I could NOT endorse this song (which did make it into top 10 songs of the year on Itunes).......... BAH!!!!!!!!

Apparently, it's not Carla's birthday after all--I found out after I started the birthday thread

OMG - well then I must rescind my birthday salutations, Carla.

[tom]

Yeah that sounds about right hehe

Can't argue w/ a girl-with-a-plan!

[nikki-uk]

I had four great aunts: Mildred, Doris, Norma, Gladys. My grandmother got Marion, the least, I think of those evils...

Aunts: Anne, Rose, Edith and Jean

Funny...it's difficult to come up with horrid old male names. Earl? Wilbur? Ernie?...not too many baby Normans cropping up anymore...

Reg, Cyril, Arnold, Maurice

(my Dad is Brian)

the regal Lucy rejecting poor Will....he really is just beneath her, isn't he? My mom brought the new Devil Cat into the mix of the two much older, very quiet persians....and now there is regular, everyday savagery there..... Little Georgie terrorizes them.....

Devil cat vs regal Lucy= savagery ....everday!!!!!!!!!!!!

and Tom - there's not gonna be a sax player. Too loud. There's going to be a really gorgeous man singing and playing acoustic gee-tar, and I am going to flirt with him.

Wait!!!...... ....isn't it YOU on crutches Susie???????????.........but you can still flirt

Apparently, it's not Carla's birthday after all--I found out after I started the birthday thread

You DON'T like Amy Winehouse??????????????

Oh no no no this will never do

I mean I know she is a complete and utter anorexic, dope smoking, smackhead scumbag (in need of a good wash)....but by god!!!! ..she sings from the (tortured) soul.

[blueeyedmanda]

A very-UN birthday to Carla!!!!

[tom]

You DON'T like Amy Winehouse??????????????

Oh no no no this will never do

. . . . . ...

...but by god!!!! ..she sings from the (tortured) soul.

Yeah Yeah Yeah I'm with ya Nik!

I haven't heard much of her (2 songs? :embarrassingly-out-of-touch emoticon: ) but saw some performance on tv last yr.

Need to hear more Amy.

[elye]

Yes...Amy sings from her verrrryyy tortured soul. Her voice is somethin' else...

She hearkens back to the soaring voices of the 50's and 60's divas. I like You know I'm No Good:

Open Original Shared Link

Superb arrangement behind her.

If only she weren't such as skank.

[DingoGirl]

Reg, Cyril, Arnold, Maurice

What? Maurice......OMG........just about the sexiest man I ever loved - dated on and off for eight years - we grew up down the street from one anotehr - - OMG - we still love each other - - ANYWHO - - his name's Maurice and he goes by Reese.....known to be among the top 10 most gorgeous men in this city (um, his two brothers are also in that list - nine kids - half French/half Italian - - most gorgeous boys EVER)........

oh - must stop - - just had a love surge and am now missing him - - (you all can read it in my book one day)

Wait!!!...... ....isn't it YOU on crutches Susie???????????.........but you can still flirt

\

oh you BETCHA!!!!!!!!!!!!! and I"ll need extra attention for my injury.......

You DON'T like Amy Winehouse??????????????

Oh no no no this will never do

I mean I know she is a complete and utter anorexic, dope smoking, smackhead scumbag (in need of a good wash)....but by god!!!! ..she sings from the (tortured) soul.

Well....how can I SAY If I like her or not? only watched the one song......I know she is exactly as you say - perhaps England's Janis Joplin? All right........I"ll watch the skank on Em's link....

I hate modern American music........except for GoldDigger......and.......gittin Jiggy with it.... :lol: Am currently IN LOVE with teh soundtrack from "Once"

and listen here....don't get me wrong......I LOVE me some tortured music (Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Peter Gabriel - note that they are all men)

OMG - must have new licenCe photo taken today....what shall I wear? And should I state my true weight?

[elye]

What? Maurice......OMG........just about the sexiest man I ever loved - dated on and off for eight years -

The French guy...but he stunk, didn't he?

and listen here....don't get me wrong......I LOVE me some tortured music (Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Peter Gabriel - note that they are all men)

Oooooooohhhhhhh....Peter Gabriel... I LOVE this man.......

OMG - must have new licenCe photo taken today....what shall I wear? And should I state my true weight?

Yeah, sure....It's always the age thing that I wanna hedge on....

[Darn210]

Well....how can I SAY If I like her or not? only watched the one song......I know she is exactly as you say - perhaps England's Janis Joplin? All right........I"ll watch the skank on Em's link....

The key is to NOT watch the video but to LISTEN. There are several artists that I just can't stand to watch perform but I like their music. I can't stand to watch Mick Jagger.

OMG - must have new licenCe photo taken today....what shall I wear? And should I state my true weight?

True Weight??!! . . . .Gahhh!!! Banish the thought!!!! Not like they make you step on a scale. Subtract at least 5!

[DingoGirl]

The French guy...but he stunk, didn't he?

No, Maurice smelled DIVINE.........he wasn't THAT stinky Frenchman. <mygawd, there was more than ONE stinky francois>

The key is to NOT watch the video but to LISTEN. There are several artists that I just can't stand to watch perform but I like their music. I can't stand to watch Mick Jagger.

Like an emaciated, strutting, rubber chicken!!!!!!!!

[Darn210]

Like an emaciated, strutting, rubber chicken!!!!!!!!

Exactly!!!! . . . that purses his chicken lips!

[DingoGirl]

:lol:

Can I just say, I LOVE the photo of Augustus Octavius Celiacus Harrumphus......the end of his regal nose looks like a..............FAT POTATO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

[Darn210]

By the way, what did you guys do to scare off Sarah? Emily, do you have anything that you need to confess?

[nikki-uk]

Yes...Amy sings from her verrrryyy tortured soul. Her voice is somethin' else...

If only she weren't such as skank.

..and yet she looks quite ummm....clean in her videos compared to this Open Original Shared Link !!!!!

My fave is Open Original Shared Link. (N.B It's not Amy in the vid...she ...ummm....didn't turn up apparently )

...but I digress...boring everyone with talk of skanky drug addicts

(you all can read it in my book one day)

I know that will un putdownable!!!!!....I CAN'T wait!!!!!!!!

WRITE IT, WRITE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate modern American music........except for GoldDigger......and.......gittin Jiggy with it....

What the....??? Modern??? ....GAD!! gittin jiggy with it...Will Smith????

and listen here....don't get me wrong......I LOVE me some tortured music (Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Peter Gabriel - note that they are all men)

Peter Gabriel!!!! (post 'Genesis')

I saw him in concert back in 1980 something ..when I actually had a social life

OMG - must have new licenCe photo taken today....what shall I wear? And should I state my true weight?

You MUST wear your Frye boots (you cannot see them in the pic...but they give you attitude )

Lie about your weight - take 10 pounds off

The French guy...but he stunk, didn't he?

OMG...the French guy???....itz ze garlic??? N'est pas??? ....or ze armpits

[elye]

Can I just say, I LOVE the photo of Augustus Octavius Celiacus Harrumphus......the end of his regal nose looks like a..............FAT POTATO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are SO right...he looks rather bovine. Must get a pic of his troublesome gums, since they're brand-spankin' cha-ching new!...

By the way, what did you guys do to scare off Sarah? Emily, do you have anything that you need to confess?

OMG...Did I ask Sarah about receding poodle gums? Did she see my dad as Hamid Karzai? As Tammy Faye? Gawd, so many things could have frightened her away....

Wait! ....Janet......

Did you show her your knees? Huh? Didja?!

Peter Gabriel!!!! (post 'Genesis')

I saw him in concert back in 1980 something ..when I actually had a social life

Me, too! Saw him three times...Twice here, once in Toronto. What a beautiful man...

[blueeyedmanda]

I have seen Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Journey twice, Foreigner, Peter Frampton....was not thrilled there. I also saw Bush before they got real popular.

[Darn210]

Did you show her your knees? Huh? Didja?!

OMGawwwd!!!! I KNEW I shouldn't have shared that information with you!!!!! You're just going to keep throwing it back in my face!!!!! I'm sensitive you know! Why, I'm as fragile as a . . . breakable thingy. You're trying to get rid of ME!!! Just like you got rid of Sarah and Erica and Daughter of the Light!

Well, I won't go so easily, see . . . it's going to take more than just a couple of random shots at my defective cartiledge . . .

I WON'T GO, I TELL YA'!!!!!

What did you do with the bodies, Emily?

[tom]

OMGawwwd!!!! I KNEW I shouldn't have shared that information with you!!!!! You're just going to keep throwing it back in my face!!!!! I'm sensitive you know! Why, I'm as fragile as a . . . breakable thingy. You're trying to get rid of ME!!! Just like you got rid of Sarah and Erica and Daughter of the Light!

Well, I won't go so easily, see . . . it's going to take more than just a couple of random shots at my defective cartiledge . . .

I WON'T GO, I TELL YA'!!!!!

What did you do with the bodies, Emily?

Ahh I see you've revealed your Native American name! Apparently bestowed by the Thesaurusless tribe of the Upper Plains. (Of course, they'd USE every part of the buffalo, but it's a little known fact that each part had only one name and was usually analogous to 'stretchy-longish-thingy' or 'leg-bottom-stomp-thing')

Don't let them take you Fragile-as-a-breakable-thingy!!!!

[elye]

OMGawwwd!!!! I KNEW I shouldn't have shared that information with you!!!!! You're just going to keep throwing it back in my face!!!!! I'm sensitive you know! Why, I'm as fragile as a . . . breakable thingy. You're trying to get rid of ME!!! Just like you got rid of Sarah and Erica and Daughter of the Light!

....Nervous

OMG.......

Janet said (among many other things) defective cartilage.

..and breakable thingy.

...So, Janet, your knees and my poodle's gums have singularly cleared the ranks...Sarah, Erica and daughter...Mygawd. The power we hold...

[DingoGirl]

By the way, what did you guys do to scare off Sarah? Emily, do you have anything that you need to confess?

*snooooooort* Good one, she's SO busted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...but I digress...boring everyone with talk of skanky drug addicts

Actually, she looks better in that makeup-less bra-crazed photo than in anything else...but.....something alarming.....does it appear that she may actually have receding poodle gums?????????

<cracking self up>

What the....??? Modern??? ....GAD!! gittin jiggy with it...Will Smith????

Yes, 'tis quite funny what *I* consider to be modern.....you see, that is MUCH more modern than, Ralph Stanley, for example (very old bluegrass), oooollld Johnny Cash and the Carter Family (mygawd, the Carters, a century ago), my Roots music, and.....good gawd all of it's old and crazy, if it's American.....modern in my library is Ben Harper w/ the Innocent Criminals or the Blind Boys of Alabama (that's Gospel, BTW)....so yes, Gettin Jiggy w/ It is QUITE modern for old dingy

(anything current I listen to is from Canada or Great Britain)

You MUST wear your Frye boots (you cannot see them in the pic...but they give you attitude )

Lie about your weight - take 10 pounds off

excellent advice, 'tis exactly what I did.

MYgawd, what a SCARY place the DMV is (department of motor vehicles for those in other countries)........scads and masses of people.....hundreds were there.....and not ONE cute, normal-looking guy in all of it........bitter disappointment......MUST move to a major metropolis where.....um......educated folk gather........

You are SO right...he looks rather bovine. Must get a pic of his troublesome gums, since they're brand-spankin' cha-ching new!...

ohhhhhh myyyyy gaaaaaaaaaaawd - - look at Gus's teeth and gums!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quite a snort I had over that photo....how DID you get him to show his expensive grill????????????????

I have seen Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Journey twice, Foreigner, Peter Frampton....was not thrilled there. I also saw Bush before they got real popular.

OMG - saw Frampton, Journey, and - I think? - not sure - Foreigner in the LATE SEVENTIES - methinks Amanda wasn't even BORN!!

OMGawwwd!!!! I KNEW I shouldn't have shared that information with you!!!!! You're just going to keep throwing it back in my face!!!!! I'm sensitive you know! Why, I'm as fragile as a . . . breakable thingy. You're trying to get rid of ME!!! Just like you got rid of Sarah and Erica and Daughter of the Light!

What did you do with the bodies, Emily?

GAHh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! help.......me........TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!! we have gotten TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:
