THE FRIDAY FUNNIES

Here we are again, Gentle Readers, after a bleak and bloody week.

So let's put our minds to rest for a few moments and try to find some humor.

This Friday we'll take on the Battle of the Sexes!

All right, enough.

I don't know why the cartoons seem to pick on the women cuz it's not that way in life.

It's more like . . .

Now listen, folks, turn off your television, don't read the newspaper or Facebook or Twitter.

Just for the weekend so you can enjoy it.

Okay?

And always remember to keep laughing!

COOL BREEZE

There was thunder much of the afternoon yesterday but only a drop or two of rain.

And that was during cocktail hour as we sat on a surprisingly cool patio.

A gentle breeze blew under a dark and cloudy sky.

We opened all the windows and slept well.

But if you're suffering through hot August weather, I have some relief for you.

It's a photo taken some time ago at the BRD's home.

Enjoy!

THE FRIDAY FUNNIES

So, the week just ending . . . good one or bad one?

I guess it's debatable.

So while you Gentle Readers do that, I'll dish up some humor.

Maybe.

Or maybe not.

Okay, folks, now have yourself a wild, wacky and wonderful weekend.

And always remember to keep laughing!

HOLY . . . . . !

My friend across the street, the Legendary Gardener, didn't put in corn this year.

What he did put in grew high, and higher, and higher.

To my great surprise . . .

. . . the six, seven and eight foot tall stalks were suddenly topped with bright yellow flowers!

In fact these were some kind of monster, mutant sunflower plants!

I must say, along with the lower and smaller ones, they do add a nice flair of color to the neighborhood.

NEARLY WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Keeping an eye on things

BARE NAKED

Rick the Handyman was here this morning to demolish and haul away our poor fallen tree.

A storm uprooted it last week and it was obvious the end was near.

Rick made short order of the finale for the poor thing.

Well, Rick and this noisy device.

His onerous duties completed, this is how our arbor looks now.

Which explains the title of this blog.

And you were lasciviously expecting something else, weren't you?
