THE FRIDAY FUNNIES

After our 54th anniversary last Monday, my wife has left me.

But before you take back all those congratulations on our lasting it through all the years of strife and glory, let me explain that she'll be back tomorrow.

She only left to house- and cat-sit for our daughter, the BAD, who is away from her home and her four (!) cats to celebrate her birthday.

April is a busy month for us with birthdays and such.

So busy in fact that I was only able to muster up the strength to find a couple of humorous pictures for your delectable Friday pleasure and amusement.

But never fear, the words are here to bail me out.

So shall we begin?



























Oh my, without SWMBO here to rein me in I fear I went a bit overboard this week.

So if your sides are aching from all that laughter, take this gentle advice sedately: have a fantabulous weekend!

And always remember to keep laughing!

But not too much.

Here, kitty-kitty . . .

( . . . oh they learn so young, don't they . . . )

JayCee said...

Ellen D. said...

Made me chuckle as usual, Bruce!
Now you behave while Judy is gone!

We had such good laughs at all of these. Thank you for brightening our Friday morning! (NewRobin13)

Love the Bob Dylan one!

Margaret said...

Oh, the car warranty calls! The Bob Dylan one was clever too. May will be a very busy month for us with birthdays and memorials.

The cardboard box made me laugh out loud. My husband and I have this discussion frequently. He's the one who wants to keep the boxes. It will be good for fires in the firepit. We haven't built a fire for over a year...but it's a good box!

Dear Punch,
How will you sleep tonight without Judy in your tent?

I really wish Facebook was once again filled with photos of what people are eating, it would be an improvement.

Cheerful Monk said...

I especially love the one about good cardboard boxes. I have saved a few. 😊

I finally trashed the overflow of boxes including USPS mailers that 'certainly I'll need to mail something in'. With Amazon giving me a new supply on a regular basis I finally freed up the space. It was almost embarrassing how much space! Dare I say hoarding?

Debby said...

I knew right away that your good wife had not left you. My gosh, after 54 years, the woman's just about got you properly trained. Who wants to start all over again?

Catalyst said...

I'll give it a shot!

Catalyst said...

The kitty-kitty one?

Catalyst said...

Have you been talking to her?

Catalyst said...

It's always my pleasure.

Catalyst said...

I thought that one was clever. (And I just watched the Dylan movie last night!)

Catalyst said...

The good and the bad. I'll be the ugly!

Catalyst said...

That's hilarious! Usually the opposite in my family, though I keep telling her we should have a firepit.

Catalyst said...

Soundly, my friend.

Catalyst said...

Oh you can find 'em.

Catalyst said...

Yup. Haven't we all.

Catalyst said...

You can say whatever you like! Curious - the boxes seemed to hit a nerve with a lot of people.

Catalyst said...

Exactly. And I've baked up a surprise for her when she comes home.

Bob and Carla said...

Elevator music - HA!! 🤣

Catalyst said...

Invest in Muzak - it will never die.

Linda's Relaxing Lair said...

Thank you so much for the laughs. I got a special kick out of the insects.

Red said...

The card board box fits here when you're trying to downsize.

Catalyst said...

Oh I'm so glad someone got that!

Catalyst said...

You just have to know when to downsize, Red.

River said...

Great selection today. I have a few really good cardboard boxes stored down in the shed, Probably chewd by mice or rats by now. I'll have to start a new collection.

Catalyst said...

Of course!

The Bug said...

That box one is the literal truth.

Catalyst said...

And here I figured you'd comment on the one about parallel parking! 😄

Steve Reed said...

The one about pictures of meals is funny. It's so true -- film was a good barrier against frivolous picture-taking!

Catalyst said...

Fortunately, my site is focused on frivolous filming. Fortuitously?
