FRIDAY FUNNIES

What?

You didn't think a little thing like my 75th BIRTHDAY would keep me from posting the Friday Funnies, did you?

Well, it's just an abbreviated version today.

I have to go take a nap.

But first . . .












That's it for another week, folks. Now excuse me as I rest from my labors.

OMG! 3/4 OF A CENTURY!!

That was the message on a birthday card I received first thing this morning from SWMBO. As if I didn't know.

Three quarters of a century ago, in Stanley, North Dakota, my father sent this telegram* to his brother in San Francisco.


And so his namesake, Franklin Bruce Taylor, arrived on the planet.

Me.

75 years ago today!

People ask me where I got my weird sense of humor.

I think I got it from my father, along with his fixtures.

* - A telegram was something that was used to send messages while we all waited for email to be invented.
