Wipe the Sandman from your eyes! It's Monday! Time for some laughs . . .

KEEPING THAT FROWN UPSIDE DOWN! I know what you’ve been waiting for! Without further ado... * Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

Sometimes you CAN actually 'wrap yourself' with warm memories . . .

GONE... BUT NEVER, EVER FORGOTTEN! A few weeks ago was the 9th anniversary of my father’s passing. I think about him all the time and miss him terribly. My mom ( who turns 80 this June ) lives in Texas with my older sister and her family, and although she is a thousand miles away, I try to call her... Sign in to see full entry.

"Impromptu" is one thing, but we could have been given a little more time!

THESE THINGS COME AND GO SO QUICKLY! Once again, I’m very angry! Well, okay, somewhat angry. Alright, alright, let’s just say a little miffed. Today is my baby brother’s 50th birthday. In my family of six, he is the last one to reach this particular milestone. Each one of us before him had some kind... Sign in to see full entry.

Bartender? Another drink . . . and a joke or two . . . please! It's Monday!

LET’S ALL GET DRUNK ON HUMOR... I know, you just can’t put it down, can you? That’s okay. Hopefully my brand of humor is your drink of choice! Shall we? Little Jack Horner sat in a corner Eating a Christmas pie. He put in his thumb, And pulled out a plum, And said “Damn! They screwed up again! I... Sign in to see full entry.

Once again, it appears that 'scruples' may be on the decline out there . .

IT’S JUST SO UPSETTING FOR SO MANY REASONS! I am so pissed off right now! The back story: Like I’ve always maintained, I believe gift cards and certificates seem to be the best and simplest gift to give someone because it takes a lot of the guess-work out of trying to find that ‘perfect something.’...

I suppose it is a good way to beat certain types of depression . . .

WHEN TO JOKE AROUND... AND WHEN TO BE SERIOUS I have a good friend that I’m sure I’ve mentioned before who is a very unique character. One of the things that makes him so unique is he is living proof that the Zodiac signs aren’t worth their weight in salt! We are both Leo’s, and couldn’t be more... Sign in to see full entry.

It's those Monday morning chuckles we all crave! Not one to disappoint . .

AND THE LAUGHS KEEP ROLLIN’ ALONG! I’ll supply the humor, you supply the guffaws! It’s a win-win situation for everybody... A rat was complaining to a buddy of how difficult things had been lately. Exasperated, he eventually hangs his head and exclaims “Life has really become a human race!” Two... Sign in to see full entry.

A life of happiness or unhappiness? Apparently children AREN'T a factor!

WHETHER IT’S JOY OR SORROW, DON’T BLAME THE KIDS! Here’s an article I came across not too long ago that expresses the results of some recent study, but doesn’t seem to say much of anything, nor does it seem to have a conclusive point. I’ll let you decide... New study: Parents are not happier than... Sign in to see full entry.

I'd like to know what YOU think those kids may have actually learned!

I CALL IT 21st CENTURY BARBARISM! Once again, I came across yet another article that had me sitting there staring at the words on the page for a minute or two, completely unsure of what I had just read. I believe our lovelyladymonk may have touched upon this particular incident sometime last week,... Sign in to see full entry.

What do I say for a Monday morning? Laugh, clown, laugh . . .

THE ROUTINES CONTINUE... I know what you’ve been waiting for! Here they come... Little Miss Muffet, sat on her tuffet, eating her curds and whey. Along came a spider who sat down beside her and said “Are you really gonna eat that shit?” What’s smaller than a teeny, weeny ant? An ant’s teeny weenie!... Sign in to see full entry.
