Pause Ponder and Deaf As a Post


Did no one notice this guy hasn't got ears?

No I guess not. And I think many of our regulars were "stumped" this week.

But we did have a couple of submissions. Let's see what they were...



Is that "Mr. Hanky, from South Park? Damn he's aged!



It's the unofficial mascot of the 2012 Quebec provincial election. Why? I don't know.



But the quip that got me going was...



Jim Henson's early concept, "Kermit the Log".





Way to go Shawn. You be hangin' with dufus this week. It's too bad the Republican convention has come and gone. We could have put that guy in Clint's empty chair and made someone's day.
