Visiting the modern art museum, a lady turned to an attendant standing nearby.

"This," she said, "I suppose, is one of those hideous representations you call modern art?"

"No, Madam," replied the attendant. "That one's called a mirror.”



The Pope and Queen Elizabeth were standing on a balcony beaming at thousands of people in the forecourt below.

The Queen says to the Pope out of the corner of her mouth,

'I bet you a tenner that I can make every English person in the crowd go wild with just a wave of my hand.'

The Pope says, 'No way. You can't do that.'

The Queen says, 'Watch this.' So she waves her hand and every English person in the crowd goes crazy, waving their little plastic Union jacks on sticks and cheering and basically going ballistic.

So the Pope is standing there going, 'Uh oh, what am I going to do? I never thought she'd be able to do it.'

So he thinks for a minute and then he turns to her and says, 'I bet you I can make every Irish person in the crowd go wild, not just now, but for the rest of the week, with just one nod of my head.'

The Queen says, 'No way. It can't be done.'

So the Pope head butts her. nd Queen Elizabeth were standing on a balcony beaming at thousands of people in the forecourt below.

Friday Fill-ins

 



It's Friday Fill-in time, posted by one spoiled cat and 15 Meowing. Ruby's fill-ins are underlined.


1. Never have I ever listened when told to stop barking. I would listen, but I can't hear over that incessant annoying barking.

2. My September to do list includes finding my August to-do list and completing it. But that's a lot of work. It will probably keep till October..

3. I wouldn’t mind hosting a poop Jenga game night party. That is when we all poop in the same big pile, and then one by one remove stools. The one who falls in the poop loses.

4 I am always curious about other people’s butts. No two smell the same. And the smell lingers. If humans allowed us to smell a murder scene and then walk around town until we found the murderer, there would be no unsolved crimes. Or they could make them all stand for a poop-up, and I'd smell their butts to find the guilty culprit.

Poetry Thursday

 





The kids wanted to do something special when their dad turned 80.

He hadn't been out of the country since his days in the Navy.

So they planned a trip for him and their mommy, Amy

A seven-day trip to Italy from the family


Amy was nervous about the trip.

She didn't wanna be a drip.

Since they had been married, neither had taken alcohol, not a sip.

She and her husband agreed. During the trip, alcohol would not pass through their lips.


The first night on their arrival, they went for an authentic Italian meal.

And the waiter asked, amongst their many wines, which one to them did appeal.

And when they said just water for them, he did visibly reel.

It was just his luck. He had to serve the American heels.


As the trip went by, at each meal, they did abstain.

Causing the restaurateurs great emotional pain.

Clearly, these two old Americans were insane.

The couple could hear from behind closed doors the servers complain


On the fourth night, feeling self-conscious, they decided to give wine a try.

A sip wouldn't make them cry.

So when they ordered a bottle of wine, the maître d’ was happy to comply.

And when they tasted it, they happily acted in surprise.


They had not known what they had been missing all their life.

And they ordered two more bottles to be kept on ice

 Soon they were up dancing, and he even dipped her twice.

And they added more bottles, not caring about the price


They were found the next morning drunk in a gondola.

Until that night, the hardest thing they had drank was Coca-Cola.

They sent a message home saying they were going to stay a few weeks over.

And drink their way from Southern Italy to the White Cliffs of Dover.

Once other squirrels were furious with George, who went on a bender, crawled home after midnight, threw up in the water dish because he thought it was the toilet bowl, and then passed out on it so no one else could drink.
