The First Day of Christmas?

I'd like to thank a special lady for spurring me on...metaphorically speaking - I don't think she's into that kinda stuff...to compile this post today. Yep, you could say she inspired me. Mad Mad Margo over at Screaming Me-Me (how come you always have to repeat yourself) dissed me yesterday. Yeah, she got all up in my face about beating her to the punch with yesterday's post. Imagine that. She had it in mind to do the same post I did. I think you've been out in that Arizona desert sun for too long, my love.

Any-hoo, she said she was gonna do a 26-part series starting today called The Fractured ABC's of Christmas. And she challenged me to "scoop that"! Well I don't have a dog, and I usually hesitate when I hit 'P' in the alphabet, so instead I've decided upon the following. I'm gonna do my own little version of the Twelve Days of Christmas - dufus style.


A Partridge in a Pear Tree


Early? You bet. The twelve days of Christmas actually start December 25 and run to January 5. So here's my premature e-joculation... And I dedicate it to Mad Me-Me...

Oh, and because it's pretty much become second nature after a month of plugging them, here's the link to pun-aholics anonymous dot com, where Me-Me and I hang out with about 100 or so other depraved and destitute humour blogger types.

Oh! And, Me-Me? I compiled this yesterday and I've set it to post at 6:51 A.M. this morning, eastern standard time... or 4:51 where you are...is the sun up yet?

*clears throat* Ahem...me-me-me-me-me... (get it? See what I just did there?)

Beat It

P.S. To my two Arizona amigos: Quirkyloon's feelings might have been hurt by some of this post. Mad Mad Margo might have been ticked by the rest of it. And half of America's probably pissed off by now. Thank God half of America doesn't read my blog. As if.

Thanks to Rob Kroese for the Michael Moore pic, which I just had to pinch.
Thanks to Jad.blog for the O'Reilly motivational poster - it was so funny I stole it.

I had a witty comment and then I got to the Sarah Palin thing and am lucky I have a free hand to type this now.

I realize it's doctored but, honestly, who carees?
Donnie said…
I'm sure Me-Me will have a little more to say this time than complaining about the time zone. At least I hope she does. That was good! Regis and Kelly workouts huh? Hmmm, not a bad gift idea.
nonamedufus said…
Sorcerer: Glad you enjoyed it.
nonamedufus said…
Moooooog: Well, I'm glad I got a rise out of you this morning.
nonamedufus said…
Don: I'm hoping she does too. I've thrown down the gauntlet. That's what happens when you forget to wear a belt.
Nooter said…
id hate for your ace scooping abilities to go unused so i will send you a little, umm, 'fodder'
Anonymous said…
I loved it! Completely!

No hurt feelings here. I got tougher skin than that Noname! hee hee

That was great and I can even forgive you for going the Seven Up route. Cuz, I'm forgiving that way.

*smile*
Now THAT's the way to ring in the holiday season! Well done, Dufus! (Even if you were hatin' on Dr Pepper... hatin' on Sarah Palin, Bill O'Reilly, Glenn Beck & Fox News more than made up for it!)
Me-Me King said…
fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la!
nonamedufus said…
Nooter: Actually I already got plenty, having won ettarose's piece of crap four times.
nonamedufus said…
Quirks: Ah good. One day I'm gonna do a post dedicated to diet Dr Pepper - I swear. But today it was 7-Up that just seemed to fit, ya know. Cheers.
nonamedufus said…
Cat Lady: Thank you ma'am. And, of course, I had to be the first! The lyrics, hunting, down the pics, the captions and the format took me about 3 hours. But it was worth it if I beat Me-Me to the punch. Ha, ha.
nonamedufus said…
Me-Me: That's it? That's the best ya got? Your comment says fa-la-la-la-la but you lips are saying something else that starts with "f"!
Anonymous said…
LOL! I am from Arizona, no offense taken.
nonamedufus said…
Christiejolu: I hope you dropped by Screaming Me-Me to get a sense of the other side of the story. She's got me all wrong, don't ya think?
Chris said…
Okay, as far as rhythm and meter, that song's friggin tough to sing. And believe me, I tried.

DK: heh, heh, thanks for playing along.

I'm in awe! This is my first comment, but you are starting to rock it out of the park man... from a long time lurker.

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...

Hello Goodbye

Today a bit of a reflective piece. Rather than being funny, this is  about the funny. It's a day of mixed emotion at nonamedufus . You see, after several months of inactivity I've dropped a couple of former blogger buddies off my blog roll. I kept hanging on and hanging on hoping they'd return to active blogging but, alas, after waiting in one case five months I've decided to let them go. I'm going to miss - going to? I have been missing - Margo at the Screaming Me-Me . She was one funny lady. From time to time she and I would engage in a feud or two for several days at a time but it was all in fun both for us and, I think, for our readers. And we'd leave each other funny comments, poking fun at each other. I miss her friendship and our humorous exchanges. The other blogger I'm letting go is Chelle, The Offended Blogger . Chelle was a special lady. In addition to her own blog she created and managed Humor Bloggers Dot Com where humour bloggers like m...

The Dangling Conversation

There's a debate underway in my household between my wife and I. I say "underway" because it hasn't quite reached the "raging" stage. If you want raging, my wife (a Francophone) and I (an Anglophone) from time to time (usually in a weak moment of my own making) slip into our number one discussion around why we don't speak more French at home - ergo - when am I, a former public servant who learned French at the expense of our gracious taxpayers and was technically rated bilingual (even though I hardly used it), going to improve my use of Canada's other language? This one never gets resolved, hence it's ongoing nature. But the current debate is over a remark I casually made the other day. I'm no geek, but with a lot of time on my hands I surf the web, converse on Facebook and such and - I have to admit - "I'm nonamedufus and I'm a Twitterholic". In an epiphany-like moment I was struck by the apparent impact of social networkin...
