Photo Finish Friday: “The Big CrackUp”

“The World’s economy collapsed today when roughly the top third of the globe blew away. Nobody knows right off hand what caused the event to take place, nor why it appears that all of Canada, all of the U.S. — except for Hawaii — and most of Mexico where the hardest hit land masses, if hit was what happened. What has been almost as startling is the discovery that — contrary to scientific theories and the best evidence available until this unfortunate event — the World apparently is hollow.

“Wait, this just in. Apparently, the rest of the world is forming giant cracks, like puzzle pieces. It appears … it appears, ladies and gentlemen, it appears the world is literally cracking up….”

Oh, the humanity....

“Oh, the humanity….”

Monday morning writing joke: “The butt of humor”

Two homeless guys are walking around the smoking area outside a hospital, heads down, stooping now and then to pick up the butts of cigarettes not completely smoked.

The first homeless guy picks up a butt.

The second homeless guy glances over and says, “Not that one. It’s unfiltered. Those things will kill you.”

[Editor’s note: This actually happened a few days ago near a local hospital. Sometimes life hands you a joke, complete with punchline and you run with it. And I will add this to that. The other day while downtown, I walked past a building. The glass front door read: “Non-smoking entrance.” To the right of the door was a bench and a sign that read: “Smoking area.” The smoking area was in front of a giant air intake grate for the building.]

Monday (morning) writing joke: “It depends”

Diapers

There many be some truth to this.

We will (with apologies to Shakespeare) call this: What’s in a name?

Query: Does anyone know why disposable baby diapers are called Luvs & Huggies, while old people diapers are called Depends?

Hypothesis: Cause if a baby poops in his(her) pants, you are still gonna Luv’em & Hug’em. But if an old person poops in his(her) pants, your love might Depend on if you are still in the will.

In honor of National Doughnut Day, June 7

There once was a man with doughnuts
who suffered so many, he had a glut
It was food for thought
about the things he ought not
as he packed another dozen into his gut.

Nature abhors a doughnut hole, so eat a doughnut and please Nature.

Limerick time: “Joy”

There once was a woman named Joy.
All her neighbors she did nothing be annoy.
Such a termagant!
Her hours were always spent
Haranguing all who came into her employ.
