Neptune with his trident and crown! <br /><br />Oona was a character in the Nancy comic books. She would take you to another place via walking through a fireplace. Comic book science fiction. I, as a Nancy, loved it. I always wanted to go there, but not enough to join scientology, Mr. Hubbard.knancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01676773933097423968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-10340428860619180002012-07-13T18:28:13.977-05:002012-07-13T18:28:13.977-05:00Joanne,
I type mine in a Word file. So I don't...Joanne,<br />I type mine in a Word file. So I don't have the excuse of not being able to read them. I can read them fine. But they don't make sense.<br /><br />****************<br />Sioux<br />Let's not delve too deeply into the moonshine thing. Says Val, whose husband once carried home 20 oz. of high-proof corn likker ON A FREAKIN' AIRPLANE from North Carolina in a Mountain Dew bottle. Yeah. Before all the tight regulation crap. A bomb waiting to happen.<br /><br />I actually think I remember this one now. Popcorn was a dude on the show, Moonshiners. I never watched it. But Hick said the guy who gave him the moonshine way back when got it from Popcorn, and now that Popcorn was dead, he couldn't get it any more. That's before the show covered Popcorn's death. But...since I never watched the show, it was kind of hard to make a story out of it.<br /><br />**************<br />knancy,<br />Well, I guess I miss Ooona too. Because for the life of me, I can't remember her. Must be all that Ovaltine. The shot-his-eye-out kid from A Christmas Story taught me not to order the decoder ring. I did not order anything from a comic book, but the sea monkey thingies wearing crowns were quite tempting. And those x-ray vision glasses. Which just makes me a perv, I suppose.<br /><br />*************<br />Tammy,<br />Perhaps you would be interested in attending a performance of my garage band, composed of Me, Myself, and I, which goes by the name of Mommy's Got A Headache.<br /><br />*************<br />Stephen, <br />Well, a lot is lost in the translation. You need the live audience to appreciate the delivery. Perhaps you could moonlight as a teacher. Built-in audience, you know.<br /><br />*************<br />Kathy,<br />I picture you doing the hula in a grass skirt you made yourself, with arm motions to accentuate the song.<br /><br />I would sooner stab an icepick into my ear canal than instruct Farmer H on how to whip up a culinary treat. It's enough to make one scream and pull hair out. Or is that pull hair out and scream?Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-17495476547685370922012-07-13T14:43:42.204-05:002012-07-13T14:43:42.204-05:00Great, I now have the song parading through my bra...Great, I now have the song parading through my brain. I will just change the words ....... Swimmers to the left of me, kampers to the right, here I am stuck in the office again.<br /><br />Did you give Farmer H directions on how to make chicken jelly with green beans in a pot, but discovered that Genius is indeed a genius for not eating it? I think Julia Child would call it aspic .... the jelly of the chicken.Kathy's Klotheslinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881966393157941515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-58344303306369030222012-07-13T01:34:42.494-05:002012-07-13T01:34:42.494-05:00I write down jokes in case I ever get brave enough...I write down jokes in case I ever get brave enough to do a stand-up routine.

I hope you didn't order those ripoffs from the back of comic books (as much as you probably wanted), but I bet WHN (what's his name) hubby did. Not that you should check the BARn - eww, again. However, I would love to see you do a post on Oona and her secret little world. I miss her.knancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01676773933097423968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-29782996521907716062012-07-12T19:09:58.772-05:002012-07-12T19:09:58.772-05:00Moonshiner popcorn.

I saw that advertised; it's not even available in the "as seen on TV" aisle in Walgreens--you MUST follow the directions on the television ad to place an order.<br /><br />It's the popcorn that moonshiners munch on while they're brewing up their brew. They hate to wait until it's "done" before they can get inebriated, so this is popcorn that is soaked in whiskey; it ends up being 90 proof, but is no longer crunchy.<br /><br />Or, maybe I'm confusing it with the popcorn that freakish fans of Cher and Nicholas Cage eat when watching "Moonshine." I'm not sure...Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-26009555627550190052012-07-12T18:34:14.400-05:002012-07-12T18:34:14.400-05:00Those are great.

I don't see any I've followed up on. Apparently all the good ones were indecipherable.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834682329952369721noreply@blogger.com
