Pause Ponder and Pretty Peculiar

Well, dropping the breadcrumbs must have worked. All kinds of folks followed us back to the main blog here for this week's Pause Ponder and Pun. Let's see what folks had to say about my buddy's magnetic personality...


He can polish your silver, iron your blouse, and build you a house - all while dancing a jazz number



Service for 8 has uncomplicated appeal. This set contains all of the essentials for your entertaining needs. Set includes: 7 forks. A silver plated serving iron. Three brick shaped sanpkins. And a portly Asian man who comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.



I can use super-glue without my fingers sticking together.



And our winner simply left me "speechless":

One look at Lady Gaga's father explains a LOT.

Way to go, Mike. You be hangin' with dufus. You can use that little badge there and wear it with pride on your blog, if you like. Tell me, though, do you think Lady Gaga's Dad was born that way?



Thanks to everyone for playing. We had a great turnout this week. Lots of new folks. I hope to see you all back again next week. In the meantime, click on the links and visit these folks' blogs. They're pretty funny there, too!

Woo-HOO!

A buddy of mine sang "Born This Way" Karaoke-style with a Down Syndrome voice the other night. Yes, tasteless and insensitive ... but the entire bar was in tears from laughing. Comedy stuff of legends.

-Definitely will add the badge.

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!  You know what happens on Imagination D

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. 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
