Life after death…

and whether or not it actually exists is a serious topic of conversation. The devout say yes, the non-believers say no, and the confused just don’t know. And, of course, those with a funny bone make jokes about it. For instance: Two men, recently deceased, popped up at the end of the waiting line at... Sign in to see full entry.

Ain't readin' nobody this weekend

Take that Murphy. And you know exactly what you can do with your damned law, too. For more weekends than I care to think about my good intentions to read widely within Blogit have been thwarted by one happenstance after another. Cut phone lines, dead computers, sick young uns, stopped watches, dead... Sign in to see full entry.

Q: What is the definition of gross ignorance?

A: 144 blondes. Yeah, after mentioning blonde jokes last time out I couldn’t resist the temptation to throw one or two your way. Unfortunately, my memory isn’t much better for blonde jokes than it is for knock-knock jokes. But here is another one I happen to remember: Once upon a time there was a... Sign in to see full entry.

“Knock-knock.”

“Who’s there?” “Hyman.” “Hyman who?” “Hyman in the mood for love.” I know, I know. That’s a real groaner. But, believe it or don’t, that was about par for a quick check of knock-knock jokes on Google. Maybe I just didn’t find any of the good ones. It might take a while. When I searched Google it...

Crunch Burghers Anyone?

There I was, happily pecking away at the keyboard of my borrowed desktop, when the hunger pangs began to set in. No prob. I could throw some burghers on to slow cook while I finished up the post I was working on. You guessed it. One post led to another before I remembered the burghers. I didn’t...

“Knock, knock!”

“Who’s there?” “Soo.” “Sue who?” “Sault Ste. Marie.” Not a real knock-knock joke, of course. It’s just an in-joke play on words for one of my boyhood homes. The city name is French, and “Sault” is pronounced “Soo,” or “Sue.” I remember only one real knock-knock joke for some reason. Here goes:... Sign in to see full entry.

Say it ain’t so!

And just what the hell is character poetry, anyway? That’s what BC-A said of my last attempt to post something here that wasn’t a rehash of a tired old joke. Gotta quit accidentally writing stuff people might take as poetry or quit calling myself notapoet. I repeat what I keep reminding people of in... Sign in to see full entry.

The lowdown on notapoet.

He is a skinny old codger with moustache and long, graying hair. He is not, as rumor has it, older than dirt. He is almost as old as dirt, and often as hard to get rid of. At other times he simply seems to disappear for extended periods of time. Then he reappears like a bad penny. He prefers to do... Sign in to see full entry.

February is just around the corner.

Happiness is a high in the fifties for the first time in more than a week. Prior to last Sunday really cold days didn’t bother me that much because I was utilizing the more airtight and less drafty portion of my ancient rented mobile home. Now I have to live in half the space in the coldest part of... Sign in to see full entry.

The Naked Blogger is sporting a new look.

You could call it layered. I’ve got the long johns on. I’m also wearing two pairs of heavy socks, a heavy shirt, my jeans and my heaviest jacket. Too top that off, I’ve got my feet planted in front of a space heater. And I’m freezing my ass off! You know how Murphy’s Law goes: “what can go wrong... Sign in to see full entry.

Quickies

Last time out I got sidetracked and actually posted something original. Now it’s back to business as usual. Since I shortchanged you a joke, how about a couple of quickies for tonight? Late in the morning of the night after an orgy of titanic proportions, the god of war stumbled to the facility to... Sign in to see full entry.

What’s your sign, baby?

I can say, with complete honesty, that I never used that tired old line -- although a couple of forward young ladies used it on me way back in them thar olden times. I’m not an astrology buff, though I once harbored enough interest to do some research on the topic. The summer of my eleventh year I... Sign in to see full entry.

Where there is money in abundance

…you seem to find lawyers galore ranging from young lone wolves to whole packs of them jammed into those long lists of partners’ names in disreputable, excuse me, reputable law firms. I don’t have much money these days, but I live near the so-called “Golf Capital of the World.” One thing that I’ve... Sign in to see full entry.

Still bloggin’ naked

…‘cause North Carolina, along with much of the East Coast and Deep South, has been suffering through one of the worst doughts of recent years. Most of the state has restricted water usage due to the extreme heat and relative lack of rainfall. Tonight is warm and muggy and, thankfully, a little... Sign in to see full entry.

More talented tongues.

It seems my tale of the strange little guy with the talented tongue was something of a success. Since that story always reminds me of another somewhat related story about the difference in approaches to sex of Americans and the legendary French lovers, I thought I would pass it along as well: A...

Money, good looks, sexual prowess?

Are these the keys to attracting members of the opposite sex? If I knew the secret I sure as hell would spend much less time alone in my home sweet sweatbox/icebox. Perhaps its a combination of all of the above, the first of which would explain why I have little success in that department these... Sign in to see full entry.

Bubba revisited.

Bubba and his cousin Jim-Bob hold revered places in contemporary redneck humor. Many an old joke has been modified to feature one or both. Since I’m known throughout the world for my original humor, it’s only natural that I dive in and retell an old clunker featuring the pair. It seems that shortly... Sign in to see full entry.

I raised a redneck.

I’m still trying to figure out how a devoted rocker and jazz buff like myself managed to pull that off. I blame influence of the boy’s mother who never quite got over her country music roots including a large dose of down home country gospel. Though I’m not at all fond of my boy’s preferred...

Cruelty jokes

For the most part they are pretty horrible creatures that repel and fascinate at the same time. We think “that’s awful, not funny,” yet we laugh, even if sometimes it is an uncomfortable laugh. We have to admit, as we find laughter in the misfortunes of others, that the awful can be awful funny.... Sign in to see full entry.

Sounds familiar

When the ex got pregnant with our only child she once told me she’d understand if I strayed a little during the later stages of her pregnancy. She was, of course, just blowing smoke. I was not a bit surprised when, a day or two later, she made it clear in no uncertain terms that straying from the... Sign in to see full entry.
