Pause Ponder and Pistol-Whipped

Well everyone took their best shot this week and a few of you just narrowly missed the target. Here are the guys who made it into my sights this week...

You've got me stumped.

Georgina Dollface

The day the Oompa Loompas decided they weren't

gonna take Willy Wonka's shit any more.

Moooooog

Moooooog's small stature didn't stop him from entering

the Thanksgiving turkey shoot.

Boom Boom Larew

The Overcompensator fires bullets the size of soda cans

and is guaranteed to drown out the haunting memory of

everyone in high school laughing at you because you didn't

get pubes until you were 17.

Renal Failure

But Chris@Knucklehead fired off a winner, and had me choking on my Cheerios with...

And then the little guys got drunk and played a game of Lilliputian Roulette.

Ha, ha, way to go Chris. You be hangin' with dufus! Congratulations my man.

Kudos to all who played along this week. I wish I could publish all the captions 'cause they were all so good. See everyone next Wednesday when you can take another shot at Pause Ponder and Pun.

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...

I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav
