Joke of the Week #86

Mom: "How did your first soccer game go, dear?"

Betty: "It went very well, Mom, but the other girls really need to learn how to share."

Mom: "Why's that?"

Betty: "They kept fighting the whole time over who gets the ball."

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Bookstore:The Tighty Whitey Spider by Kenn Nesbitt

When pigs fl-oh, wait...

 

 

200 posts?!?! ALL RIGHT!!! DA DA DAH, DA DA DA DA DAH, DA DA DA DA DA DA DA-A-AHH! YEAH! (Is this joke starting to get old? Kinda? Sorta? Little bit? Oookay. :-D)

 

 

This is a very nifty little book of weird and wacky animal poems, with many very clever little ditties, such as the titular tale of a certain undies-clad spider, "Cara's Parrot", which concerns a bodybuilding bird, "Has Anyone Seen My Chameleon?", concerning the disadvantages of playing hide-and-seek with a chameleon, "Banana Dan", the sad(or, actually, more pathetic!) tale of a once brave monkey, "Speedy Sid", which concerns a racing squid, "Gabby's Baby Beagle", a tongue-twisting poem about a girl and her baby beagle, who has a taste for bagels, "An Ordinary Day", which catalogues a cavalcade of Unusually Uninteresting Sights, "Get Me out of the Fish Tank", a song set to the tune of "Take Me out to the Ball Game", told from the POV of a cat who tried to get a snack and fell in, and "My Hamster has a Skateboard", concerning a skateboarding hamster who's not so easy on his wheels. (Let's face it-Tony Hawk he ain't!) If you like funny poems, you like animals, and especially if you like funny poems about animals, this is the book for you!

 

 

Here are a couple of my faves:

 

He's one kitty that's certainly very straight-to-the-point! :-D

BTW, Ganz, the makers of the very popular Webkinz line of plushies, has also made a series of plushies with triangular bodies called Triang-A-Mals, one of which being a cat. This is perfect for anyone who might like a triangular kitten of their own, or knows someone who does.
