Pause Ponder and Put the Clothes in the Dryer

Luke, I'm your laundry!

Well that's the best I could do.

And I guess everyone else was severely challenged this week, too, or on holidays like me.

Everyone except moooooog and Quirkyloon.

So let's see what our co-winners came up with shall we?

Brainwashing 101: so easy a dog can do it.

I bet it's much cooler in Maine than here in AZ. So yes! I'll join you in Maine! Tell me where I should pick up my ticket?

Thanks for letting me Hang With Ye! It's always a lot of pun! HA!

The Polka Dot Door

This was in the mid-50s, hardly on the heels of the device's invention, nevertheless - having been patented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 - it was still in it's formative years. Coloured models, the Princess phone, and the push button model were all yet to come, to say nothing of wireless home phones and the cell phone. The telephone, by the way, figured prominently in comedian Bob Newhart's early stand-up routine. In the late 50s/early 60s Newhart made his mark using a telephone as a prop and having hilarious one-sided conversations. It was a device he used for years. The telephone also played a ce...
