Pause Ponder and St.Patrick's Day


Now there's a good upstanding Irish name for ya. Happy Saint Paddy's day to you guys. How many of you folks will be imbibing of the green ale today? Not me. No, the only thing green in my beer will be the lime in my Corona. I don't think they do green beer in Panama.

Remember this guy from earlier in the week? He's some pot of gold isn't he? Let's cut right to the heart of the matter and see what you guys had to say about him...



Mr. Gaga, putting the finishing touches on his red carpet outfit.



This is all wrong. You can't eat with two knives. He should consider replacing one of them with a fork.



Knife, knife, baby! Under pressure, my sinuses.



But our winner planned ahead and took into account the day we'd be announcing the winner. ..



Shamus learned quickly the rests of trying to steal a Leprechaun's gold.

Way to go LOTGK. Faith and begorrah, lad, you be hanging with O'dufus this week. Maybe you and I ought to take a trip on down to Wal-Mart. I hear they've got a special on steak knives this weekend.

Sorry I missed this week's events. I was out of town. That guy is a real cut up.

Yeah, you buy two knives and you get this guy for free!
nonamedufus said…
This guy could be a character from a novel that takes place in the Middle Ages. Sir Rated. (hahahahaha)
LOTGK said…
Thank you. Although i didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night, I did have a most excellent tasting corned beef sandwich.
nonamedufus said…
Wow, you coulda had a V-8!
LOTGK said…
I used to, but my Jeep is a 4.0 six. :D
Nonamedufus said…
4.0 wheels? But everybody has 4 wheels.
LOTGK said…
4.0 six, = 4.0 liter engine slant 6 cylinder.
I also have a 5th wheel attached to the trunk. And a steering wheel.
However, a motorcycle only has two whhels. :D

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...
