Fruit Cake

If they cut down the postal service to once a century it still won't have an effect on the freshness of my aunt's fruit cake.

If Gov Christie runs for Pres the problem is not what's in the Rep platform but will it be strong enough to keep him from falling through it
 
I take each day one at a time. Two if I can't find a bathroom.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a raise without being unionized.

  1. LOL. Almost spit out my morning coffee on the last one. Go labor unions! Love it. (I co-led a strike back in the day.)

    1. Thanks. I come from a family of union members. I'm a member of the Writer's Guild. Without them we'd be barely above slavery.

  2. Thankfully there is always the litterbox if one can't find the bathroom.

    1. Yes, but I'd hate to find the person who has to clean the litter box.

  3. Off topic. You had one hell of a mustache back in the day. Very nice.

    I really miss the days of Carson and Dangerfield and the early SNL. At one time, I think American Comedy was some of the best in the world. But I'm an old fart. What do you think of comedy in America today?

    1. It's gotten to the point of where making money is far more important then any single factor. Plus the newer comics don't help each other out like we did. They're not as concerned about the history of the art form. There were only 30 or 40 of us in New York and we spent almost every waking hour together. It was like a giant clubhouse for people just like us. it was an a amazing time. I don't really push my stuff to hard other that I have to, but if you get a chance read the book you'll get a real feeling of what it was like to be a comic back then. Rodney was a very special man. He was a gentle soul who really cared for the younger comics.

  4. I guess the dogs will have to chase the garbage men though if the postal workers go to once a century. They need their daily dose of exercise.

    1. You're right until they start picking up garbage once a week.

    1. I was thinking more about unions and the repetitive work and if they weren't allowed to be organized they'd never get a raise. I've seen it happen.

  7. Heck, who needs a bathroom? Just go dig a hole outside! ;)

    1. I didn't think of that. I'll have to remember to carry a shovel.

  8. Remember that as a man, the world is your urinal. A tree, a fence, a small dog. Anything's fair game. Even Aunt Sally's fruit cake. Excellent absorbency. Who doesn't love a good urinal cake?

  9. That's funny and true. A sink works, just the kitchen sink while your cleaning the dishes.

    1. Fruit cake is one of the few things on the planet that doesn't have an expiration date.

  11. I just read your profile and you are thoroughly famous. Funny is and funny Stan Laurel hat you wear. I bet no one knows who Stan Laurel is anymore.I wrote a post recently that my girlfriend says to me, "Another fine mess you got us in, Ollie," and we choke laughing but we are of that vintage. Ha

    1. I never really appreciated Stan Laurel till I got older and looked back at their old films. His timing was brilliant. I'll have to check out that post later today. I literally just woke up. I watched this British Crime series till 5AM. I'm not awake enough to remember the name. I'll get back to you on that. Thanks

    2. I know who Stan Laurel is! Or was. He's dead. I also know that it was Ollie who said, "Here's another fine mess..."
      Excuse me for channeling my inner nerd...

    3. You're right Stan was the one who said that while Ollie made a dumb face. The inner nerd is what the comic soul feeds off of.

    1. The definition takes me off the hook, as far as insane is. I hope. Thank you and I appreciate your compliment.

  13. Brilliant.
    I’m here quite by accident, nobody sent me, but it was worth the journey.
    Laughing is good.

    1. Laughing it really the best medicine. I'm glad you found the site by accident. That makes your comment mean even more to me. Thank You and I hope you'll come back.

  14. I don't think Christie can RUN for anything without wheezing and clutching his chest.
    Unless it was after a doughnut.

    1. He should go on a donut hole diet. Maybe Governor Christie could try to roll his way to the presidency.
