Sunday Funnies










Comments

So, so many good ones, but hands-down, for me as a Steelers fan, I have no choice but to go with the Hines Ward cartoon. That's my favorite this week - with a little tear in my eye.

It was a good week for political cartoons. Many sports ones, too. My favourite has to be the bus with the misappropriately placed wheels, which actually happened, next to the plane with similarly placed wheels indicating the Air Canada unions had management by the balls.

Who is the woman with the tyres in the next to the panel about Air Canada ?

Alberta's Wildrose Party leader Danielle Smith. Here's a pic of the original and of the bus after they changed it... The original bus design was a bit of a bust.
I saw that photo of the bus with the misappropriately placed wheels earlier on your Facebook page. That was pretty funny...and this one is too, once you explain the Canadian context :).

Oh we Canadians can be pretty funny. And we can even laugh at ourselves.

And to think the Cardinals went a'courtin for Mr. Manning but alas he rejected us! heh heh.

And tire-wheel boobs Babe and tire-wheel balls Dude was the funniest for me! heh heh

Oh, Manning had to stay with a horse team and there's only so many. And he's not very religious so the Cardinals never would have worked.

I hate politics almost as much as I hate sports...
But I loved the Etch-A-Sketch one.

I know people who come pretty close to being that dense. :)

I mean, anyone knows that to download apps, you need to use the microwave instead. If you're downloading mp3's, it needs to be a microwave where the plate turns around in circles like a record player.
Duh.

If you use the microwave you'll never have baby apps.

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...
