The other dog theory is, What the heck--if it's not edible I can always throw it up later.

Mrs. Michaels

July 11, 2009 06:49 PM

iamsurly, hmm... you're a smoker? heh

Steve, you do know it's Saturday evening, not morning, right?

Marcela, glad you enjoyed.

Sally Swift

July 11, 2009 06:53 PM

Ooh, I like that first personal one you show. I can think of a time or two I should have done that!

Mrs M, you're right, taste-and-hurl is very big in our house.

Steve, next time, write your own ketchup message!

Sally Swift

July 11, 2009 07:06 PM

Love the zoo warning! Well, heck, and the rest! Thanks for the giggles!

a machine with no brains... I like the stool bus!

Chuck A. Stetson

July 11, 2009 07:20 PM

Loved this - needed a good laugh!

July 11, 2009 07:30 PM

Outside, Mr Mustard, Owl - if I gave you a laugh or two, my work here is done. (For now. ;)

AHEM: Someone isn't rating all this fun?

Hard to choose a favorite so I'm just going to laugh at them all. Rated.

I tried the dog advice at work. HR tells me that I should be receiving Management's dry cleaning bill any day now.

I love them all, but Stiff Nipples Air Conditioning Service takes the cake. Great!

Dayna Vance

July 11, 2009 09:12 PM

Stiff nipples air conditioning was my favorite. And as per the mentally unbalanced sign, I have three normal friends, so I am apparently "the one," though in my immediate family, we have apparently exceeded our quota.

Hey, You! Have you been peeking in my mailbox!? Hilarious, Sally. That's exactly the kind of gutter humor I enjoy!

30 Minutes...no service is a tactic that, despite having worked as a waiter, I can't help but admire.

Pablo Manriquez

July 11, 2009 11:06 PM

Where in hell do you FIND THESE???

I wish I could say my favorite one was this or that, but there were too many to have a favorite.

Many thanks for the laughs, Sally. Thumbed.

Bill S.

July 11, 2009 11:15 PM

Thanks to all 'a y'all for stopping by and taking away just what I wanted to give... chuckles, laughs, lightness, fun and maybe a little positive energy for a change.

And, hooboy, I am all ferclempt, Stever Blevins called me "darling."

Sally Swift

Forgot to say most important thing: I'm glad to see more friends enjoying a break from strum and drang.

Roger and Everybody Else, I'll post tomorrow why I don't have the time to comment, etc. I'm reading whenever I get a minute and will try to continue as best I can.

I love you guys.

Funny! You know, I only heard the "if you can't eat it" quote once before, years ago, when someone I knew then used it as their sig line in email but it was in some other dialect or language, although you could just about translate it to English from looking at it. Esperanto? Creole or Cajun?? Ring a bell with anyone?
