Paws, Ponder and Pun

There were a lot of good captions this week.  It was hard to narrow the submissions down.  Thanks to all who played along.

Moooooog had me chuckling with:

Look at the crazy guy wearing a purple shirt.


Ziva had a good one with:

E.T. knew he was different when he hit puberty and all the girls ever wanted to do was phone home.


Skye had a zinger with:

Look what happened to me.  She said it was Love Potion #9.  How am I supposed to get any lovin' looking like this?


But it was Mike at Too Many Mornings who came through with this week's winner:


The more Jenny talked to Zorax, the more he seemed out of this world.



Congrats, Mike.  You be hangin' with the dufus this week.  Well done!

Hell yeah, honorable mentions two weeks in a row, that's almost as good as winning, right? No? Crap.

I actually woke up this morning thinking, "Oh, crap. I had a better caption for NoName's contest." Then I resigned myself to losing again, because I don't think I've ever won one of these caption contests, and deservedly so. The caption I dreamed up was, "Nobody was surprised when Jenny fell for Zorax. She'd always been attracted to men with foreign accents."

Anyway, thanks NoName! I'm starting my day with a big smile. :)

CatLady: I am an alien.
Quirky: Ouch! Can you do that again, butt lower? ;)
Jayne: I used to be a writer. Lately, though, I'm more of a photographer.
Don: I think it's Natalie. And, like you, I can't decide which of the Scandanavian sisters has the worse date.

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...
