Do electricians talk about current affairs?
Do the ocean waves talk about current affairs?
Do raisin raisers raisin' raisins listen to music by 'Carlos Sultana'?
Why do we drink cow's milk? Do we start out with a bale of hay for breakfast? Have you ever seen a cow hanging around the maternity ward trying to get some human's milk?
The "Accident-Prone" workshop has been cancelled because the 'uncoordinator' wiped out the entire classroom,. knocked over the drinks machine and landed in a buffet of beef stew, creamed corn, jelly and ice cream, tripped over the electrics and set fire to the entire building. He then fell out of the back of the ambulance on the way to the hospital, got run over by the ambulance that was behind and ended up in a ditch. Other than that, he should be making a full recovery...
The, "Improve Your Memory" workshop, will be held at .....will be held at...um the following location on the um following dates.
I noted somebody had done a blog on "apathy", but I couldn't be bothered to comment.
Hilarious! I saw Lee's post about apathy as well. Now, do you need another hand?
ReplyDeleteHi Alex,
ReplyDeleteActually, I haven't been to Lee's post yet. However, I did comment, as best I could, on Robin's post. I could always use another hand! :)
Thanks, Alex.
Gary
Haha. Always funny! Love the meme Al made you. He's such a wonderful dragon.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I do start my day with a bale of hey...LOL...couldn't resist to be punny like you!
Hi Elizabeth,
DeleteThanks, I say as I laugh, or is it cry, all the way 'from' the bank. On a scale of 1 to 10, the dragon, scale, gosh I'm so clever n' stuff. On a a scale of 1 to 10, Al is dragon 10.
Do I have to bail you out with your bale joke? Hay, hey and ha ha! :)
Nice to see you back and front.
Gary :)
Raisins only talk about currant affairs when they're in a jam.
ReplyDeleteMr. Penwasser,
DeleteA traffic jam? You are raisin a good thought. I salute you in the nicest possible way, good sir.
Gary :)
Pffft to dairy and hay both can go away. I'd give you a hand but my clapping may make thing jealous
ReplyDeleteHi Pat,
DeleteDairy, dairy,
Quite contrary
Wont udder a word about hay
Hay stuck in my teeth all day
One-hand clapping
Sometimes whacking
Gary :)
I did here a song about current affairs
ReplyDeleteI heard it on the Grape Vine
AHHAHH HAh ah ha ha hah ahha ha hahha hah ha hah ah hah
I think I got my fruit all mixed up but, I was just raise in the topic of conversation . . . . . Sorry that joke sort of dried up.....
Hi Rob,
DeleteAt the currant time
You heard it the grapevine
Aha and hay, hay, hay. That's what I say. Mooooving on....
I think you ended up in a fruit cocktail. Your joke dried up like a prune. That figs...
Gary :)
Rob part two
Delete:) And I shall now correct my error. You heard it (through) the grapevine. Yikes...
As always, an entertaining read. Especially the bit about apathy.
ReplyDeleteHi M.J.,
DeleteThank you for your comment. I almost didn't reply. LOL
Gary :)
I bow to your superior punning ability.
ReplyDeleteHi Pat Dilloway,
DeleteYou are very kind and as Dire Straits sang about 'Sultanas of Swing', I shall thank you for a grape response.
Gary :)
*rimshot*
ReplyDeleteHi JoJo,
DeleteGets the rebound and *slam dunk*.
Gary :)
I bestow upon you "Wittiest Blogger Award". Will you be giving an acceptance speech?
ReplyDeleteHi Keith,
DeleteYay, another award and thanks for such a bestowal. I shall leave the acceptance speech up to Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar!
Gary :)
A great post to cheer the miserable. Thanks Gary for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Hi Yvonne,
DeleteI'm truly heartened by that, Yvonne. I've had a terrible day and posted this to take my mind off things. Wishing you some happy thoughts.
Gary :)
Interesting you should ask. I'm certain ocean waves discuss current affairs vigorously with the shore. More like talking over it :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Angela,
Delete*Waves* :) I sea what you mean and that's for shore,
Gary :)
Very Funny, Gary.
ReplyDeleteHugs and chocolate,
Shelly
Hi Shelly,
DeleteThank you, Shelly.
Hugs and sultanas,
Gary :)
Great post, very funny. My type of humor.
ReplyDeleteHi Dizzy-Dick,
DeleteI appreciate that, kind sir. Nothing like going a bit surreal.
Gary :)
Another post that reminds me of my childhood. LOL.
ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
DeleteAh yes, childhood. I wonder how Thing would get on with Slinky.
Thank you, Julia.
Gary :)
Thanks for the laughs! I especially loved the one about cows hanging around maternity wards looking for human milk. Too funny! :-D
ReplyDeleteHi Lexa,
DeleteAnd thank you. One of my more moooving postings, but I wont um labour the point :)
Gary :)
Some good laughs here for a busy day!
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny,
DeleteGlad you had some laughs from this on a busy day. I had some prunes and now I'm busy...must go now....
Gary :)
I am glad that your humor is still intact. Have you considered stand-up comedy? I think you might be very successful if this blogging thing doesn't work out.
ReplyDeleteI did respond to your apathetic comment, btw. hahaha.
Hi Robin,
DeleteMy humour is in bits, all over the place and I'm beside myself. I've considered sit-down comedy. This blogging thing aint working out. I've been blogging for over six years, yes time for some sleep. I've had a blog for over six years and I'm still a well-kept secret. Then again, I get comments from lovely ladies such as you. Who needs fame, fortune and blog hops....
Oops and yep, I almost didn't comment back to you because am I bothered. LOL and hay, hay, hay!
Gary :)
It's all so silly, my head is spinning and I'm picturing your wedding photos. Did you kiss a finger or knuckle when it was time to kiss the bride? What was your theme song? Were there handouts for the guests?...I have so many questions, Gary.
ReplyDeleteDid you read the announcement about the Procrastinators' Workshop? It's being postponed to a later date. And the Hoarders Convention is full of clutter - no room to even stand in there. Oy, you got me started.
Thanks for the sillies, dear Gary.
xoRobyn
Hi Robyn,
DeleteYes, remember Gary, Robyn with a "y" :) I can't quite put my finger on it. Oh yeah, I kissed the middle finger, but that's another story. "I Want To Hold Your Hand", by the "Beatles" was the theme song. The guests got second-hand gifts. They were not amused. Sure got to hand it to you with all these questions, Robyn :)
Oh yeah, the "Procrastinators Workshop", is one I will have to think about. Maybe tomorrow, or the next day, or...Oh, does that say "Hoarders..."? Never mind. Of course and here goes again, the "Apathy" workshop was cancelled due to lack of interest....
Thank you for being equally silly, dear lady.
Gary :) x
Wait, did Penny write this one? Here, Penny...you adorable pooch you!
ReplyDeleteHello um, Eve?
DeleteWait, did Fiona paw this comment? Here, Fiona...you adorable pooch, you!
I'm going to the same workshop, wherever and whenever it will be. Will they be serving milk? Did I ask you that before, Gary. I have been having some problems since I got run over by an ambulance.
ReplyDeleteHi Arleen,
DeleteI think that workshop is being renovated in anticipation of the next time they attempt to run that workshop. Although, I can remember what workshop I'm talking about. I'm not sure any beverages will be served. However, I've been informed there's a stampede of frantic cows at the maternity ward wanting human milk. I got one of my cars wiped out by an ambulance. Now, that's irony.
Gary :)
Well, I just know that I know that I know that I know that my post about hot raisins in burning brandy was the inspiration for this here post of yours. Am I right or am I right?
ReplyDeleteAs ever,
rhymeswithplague the bald, er, magnificent, er, erstwhile blogger
Hi rhymeswithplague,
DeleteHand on heart, erm, the left side of your chest, Gary. Hand on heart, I already had the raisin stuff in draft. You, however, did give me some inspiration for raisin the rest of the post. So you are half correct, my delightful friend.
Grape to see you here.
Gary :)
Know what happens when you step on a grape? It gives a little whine.
ReplyDeleteA delightfully silly post, my friend.
Hi Susan,
DeleteI'm wondering if this is the comment you thought vanished...
Your joke was one of the vinest I'm ever read :)
I hope I'm a delightfully silly dude, dear Susan.
Gary :)
Dang! I commented once, and it disappeared...
ReplyDeleteKnow what happens when you step on a grape? It gives a little whine.
A delightfully smile-worthy post, my friend.
Hi Susan,
DeleteThis is part two of my comment back to you. The vanished comment must have unvanished. Yep, "unvanished", evidently aint a real word. Evidently, neither is "aint". All these red lines on my screen.
Your joke was one of the vinest I've ever read :) And yep, evidently, "yep" isn't a real word or "vinest". I also corrected my typo from the previous comment. Changed "I'm" to "I've". Welcome to almost Groundhog Day. Dang, evidently "dang" and "Groundhog" are not real words!
Thank you kindly, y'all.
Gary :)
I like the idea of "asking for her hand'." Often times, the hand is the best part. I doubt if anyone would ask for the foot. Well, perhaps if they had a foot fetish.
ReplyDeleteHi Manzanita,
DeleteYou finger nailed it with this one. I used to have a foot fetish. Then we went metric. Now I have a metre fetish.
Gary :)
LOL! Love the... which one? Don't recall. :)
ReplyDeleteHi BZ Dogs,
DeleteLOL! I forgot what I was going to type to you all.
Gary:)
Loud smiles. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHi Elephant's Child,
DeleteI can hear the loudness in your smile. Thank you :)
Gary :)
Love love the Addams family :)
ReplyDeleteYou're pretty deep here for a Wednesday Gary.
.......dhole
Hi Donna,
Delete"You rang?"
Thank you, I do get the occasional moment when I want to post up something deeply philosophical. It's now Thursday and today is only yesterday's tomorrow. Wow, that's pretty deep :)
Gary :)
You are the prince of puns Gary! This was very clever!
ReplyDeleteJulie
Hi Julie,
DeleteThat's very nice of you, Julie. Let's have some more 'pundemonium'....
Gary :)
So, this guy walked into a pole and the pole pushed him to the ground saying, "Vat to you dink I am, Dr. Suez."
ReplyDeleteThe guy dusts himself off and retorts, "Cry me a canal, man. Cry me a canal."
See, my point is You, dear Khalanie (O, Hawaiian God of Pun) are indeed Dr. Seuss 2.0.
Hi Mark Koopmans,
DeleteI have typed out your full name because another Mark, further on down, has left a comment. This way, you will know, if you subscribe to follow up emails etc, you will know that I'm replying to you and probably just rambling on at this point until I come up with a reply that makes any kind of sense.....
Superb and Dr.Suez Canal is now doing rhymes with Dr Seuss who is on the loose in a caboose with a moose who is footloose with a goose.
A pun or two

Hi Gary .. I think I've lost the plot .. read so many great comments to the current progrom on offer this week .. I'm off on my memory laps(e) walk to spend three whole days watching some ping pong with fluffy yellow balls, screeching seagulls .. and probably some drizzle ..
ReplyDeleteCheers for now - may need a dunkin donut later on after the drink .. Hilary
Hi Hilary,
DeleteYou may have lost the plot and I misplaced the allotment. Anyone for tennis and screeching seagulls hovering overhead during a touch of rain.
Hope you managed to dunk a doughnut and mind the milk. Thank you, Hilary.
Gary :)
I was stunned by the shocking current state of affairs and got my hot wires in place and short circuited right over!
ReplyDeleteHi Ray,
DeleteYou certainly are referring to a load of zap. I think my brain just short-circuited.
Gary :)
You went out on a limb with the marriage proposal...! :-)
ReplyDeleteTake care

Hi Old Kitty,
DeleteIndeed I did. I proposed from a branch to a tree surgeon :)
Yay, y'all :)

Why do people drink cow's milk? We are the only ones who drink another creature's milk. (And then we wonder why everyone is lactose intolerant.)
ReplyDeleteHi Diane,
DeleteAre we the only ones who drink another creature's milk? What about the inhabitants of Uranus. Wonder what they do. Seriously, you make a good point and actually enhance my point or two. Thank you, Diane.
Gary :)
Thanks for making me laugh, I always enjoy a good laugh.
ReplyDeleteHe asked for her hand in marriage. Her father said take the whole girl.
Hi River,
DeleteI'm delighted this attempt at humour has made you laugh. We all sure could use a good laugh.
The father was a man who held the upper hand.
Gary :)
I soooooooooooooooo love how your brain works!!! roflmao!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Caren,
DeleteMy last two brain cells thank you! :)
Gary :)
You brightened my day Gary.
ReplyDeleteHi Delores,
DeleteIt heartens me to know I brightened your day. It's been very difficult lately for a lot of folks and I was hoping to create a silly distraction.
Gary :)
Haha...you know, I've always been curious about the whole 'asking for her hand' in marriage thing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh this morning! :)
Hi Mark Means,
DeleteAnd now we know the best "Thing" to do.
I'm glad this gave you a morning laugh, my friend.
Gary :)
So now that you gave me my laugh for the day I am going to go eat some raisins for my snack.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day and... I am sharing.
Hi Terry,
DeleteI'm pleased this gave you a laugh for the day. Enjoy those raisins and it's good of you to share the raisins :) Okay, thanks for sharing this posting on twitter and good ol' 'Farcebook'! :)
A peaceful weekend to you, Terry.
Gary :)
I have a sudden craving for raisins...can't figure out why! Good one here, Mr. Gary. Too punny. Luckily I was NOT drinking chardonnay at this time or it would have been on my screen...
ReplyDeleteTina @ Life is Good
Hi Tina,
DeleteHave fun with your raisin cravings and a bit of music by Sultana. I've heard raisins go well with 'puncakes'. No Chardonnay this time. Cow's milk, perhaps....
Hope you are okay and a good weekend to you, Tina.
Gary :)
i have a taste for human raisins... you made me laugh... now i cannot stop...
ReplyDeleteHi Mr. (Retro-Z),
DeleteI just got attacked by a bunch of shrivelled grapes. Glad I made you laugh. Laughter could be the death of me.
A nice weekend to you, good zombie.
Gary :)
Dude,
ReplyDeleteWhere's the CA fishing boats?
Did they sink?
Have a safe, fun, quiet weekend (you pick one :)
Mark,
DeleteMr. Dude, Hawaii? Good, I hope :)
California fishing boats? "Crestliner Aluminum" fishing boats?
Yes, they sunk and now they are going to be raisin the fishing boats.
The header photo is "Tresaith beach", Wales.
Thanks for the weekend choices. Can I have all three choices....
A peaceful, positive weekend, or whatever you want type weekend, my friend.
Gary :)
You've taken puns to a new funny extreme-- thanks for the laughs, I do need them to keep sane in hazy Singapore. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Damyanti,
DeleteLovely to see you and I hope you can see your screen through the haze. I truly am heartened that this made you laugh. Life has been very challenging for you, dear lady. May things become clearer in Singapore. Must go now and wash the pots and puns.
A peaceful, hopeful weekend to you.
Gary :)
Ah fantastic! Please fill me in on the details of that um' workshop, you know the one.
ReplyDeleteMadison:)
Hi Madison,
DeleteDid I make mention of a workshop? Really? I forgot and what am I typing about...oh my :)
A positive, happy weekend to you, dear lady.
Gary :)
Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteHi Annalisa,
DeleteSaid the electrician to the lit-up lightbulb.
Enjoy you weekend.
Gary :)
Now I remember in England Big raisins were called Sultanas. In Hindi Sultana means emperor.
ReplyDeleteHi Munir,
DeleteI'm pretty sure we called them bigger dried raisins, sultanas in Canada. Sultanas are dried white grapes but from seedless varieties. You might refer to them as "golden raisins". That's interesting about it meaning emperor. Thank you.
A good weekend to you and your loved ones.
Gary :)
Ah! How much I've missed your sense of humor, my friend. You always put a smile on my face. I hope you don't run out of smiles or my face will suffer!
ReplyDeleteBe well, my best to Penny, the Jack Rusell dog and modest internet superstar.
Hi Al,
DeleteI'm delighted you like my alleged sense of humour, my friend. We want you to maintain that smiley face :) I try to put up postings like these as a positive distraction for anybody, including me, who might perhaps be having a challenging time.
I appreciate your thoughts and Penny is wishing you a lovely weekend.
Gary :)
Hi Gary:
ReplyDeleteWhen I woke up this morning, I felt like it was going to be a good day. Then I viewed your blog and had a wonderful laugh first thing in the morning. I hope I didn't wake the neighbors. LOL!!! Thanks for the joy that you post on your amazing blog.
Suzanne
Hi Suzanne,
DeleteThat's really sweet of you. I'm so happy this gave you a wonderful laugh so early in the morning. I do try to bring a bit of fun in a sometimes miserable world. Any problems with your neighbours and I'll explain it all to them, eh.
Have a really good Saturday and an awesome weekend.
Gary :)
Gary,
ReplyDeleteSomeone like you gives a raisin to believe. Of course it's hard to be leave when you're a stationary person. And as a stationery person I shall be sending you post for a certain upcoming event. Not a post such as goes in the ground. Mail, that is. Not a male, of course. And nothing coarse.
Happy weekend and thanks for the smiles,
Laura

Hey Laura,
DeleteYou bring up some excellent raisins to attempt to reply in a similar vane, um vein. I've got a tear in my shirt and I must get fix it. I've got a tear in my shirt and the stain is there to see. I have to tare up the raisins and check the wait, um weight.
I loved your clever angle on this posting, Laura. A rather acute angle, um, a rather cute angle.
A peaceful weekend to you and thanks for making me laugh.
Gary :)

*giggle*
ReplyDeleteSo funny, Gary!
I think electricians might have quite a lot to say about current affairs.
I wonder what cows say about human milk, though.
Jai
Hi Jai,
DeleteI hope you the rest of your birthday was a spectacular success! Did you enjoy that parade they had for you?
Thanks for finding this funny.
I think electricians appreciate a plug.
After having a breakfast of bacon and eggs, cow washes it down with human milk. Realises it quite likes the breakfast, but spits out the human milk.
A lovely rest of the weekend to you, my friend.
Gary :)
*KER-TISH! Hahahaha, very good. My how popular you are Gary, look at all these fans of yours, you must have to spread yourself pretty thin to reply to them all. It's very sweet that you do though. And don't get me started on Cow's milk...it's full of puss for a start.....*runs off before she gets on a roll.
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle,
DeleteEEH GADS! Thank you and yay for me :) Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar is the popular one. Which reminds me, she says hello to Lardy! It takes a lot of time to reply to each person. I'm very lucky to get so many comments. Like you, I try to add the personal touch. Now when I say personal touch...um....anyway, I may have to find a better balance to this and then have more time to comment to all those millions of bloggers anxiously waiting for one of my comments on their blogs.
I would never get you started on cow's milk. Goat's milk, maybe, but never cow's milk :) Ignore me, I'm being pedantic.
Have a lovely Sunday, Michelle. The baker has a roll for you....
Gary :)
Am I number 100
ReplyDelete?
Hurrah
Hi John Gray,
DeleteYou worked that out well. Nice timing. Although I figured you would have tried to be 31 sooner.
Hey, you've got way more "followers" than me! Excuse me while I go cry.
Have a great Sunday and say hello to the chicks!
Gary :)
Hello, I'm commentor number, um...well... wow!
ReplyDeleteHi Dixie,

Be well, Dixie and keep smiling, y'all!

That YouTube video had me craving tortilla chips and salsa. What a fascinating blog you have--a little different, but fun, nonetheless!

Hi Ornery Wife,
