Officially Freezing Friday "Funday": 16F (about -9C)

SNOWBALL

I'made myself a snowball
As perfect as could be.
Ithought I'd keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me.

I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first—it wet the bed.

Read more poems in Falling Up by Shel Silverstein!

That picture above? It IS how many Bostonians say the word "storm"! And yes, we got a tough one yesterday, over a foot of white stuff.

Of course, since I do have heat and electricity, I have no excuse to ignore the other part of Fridays -- the FUN part!

Pretty much what we're feeling here in the Northeast this morning . . .

One of the modern marvels I would hate to give up.

I’M GIVING UP ALCOHOL
FOR A MONTH!

WAIT, SORRY. THAT CAME OUT WRONG.
I’M GIVING UP. ALCOHOL FOR A MONTH.

While punctuation does matter, this one below could be right depending on who wrote it -- like the pharmacist above . . .

So...what do
they do with
the rest of
the mole?

Remember, Valentine's Day is next week!

BEET POET

With a nod to Allen Ginsberg and others of his generation.

And my favorite for today! The barber surely is an artist.

Which one is YOUR favorite today?

Many of these funnies come from Facebook pages that you can access any time you need a few more good laughs. My favorites are Single Dad Laughing, I am not a grammar cop, Language Cranks Redux, Pun Based Humor, Wrong Hands, and Tannuzzo Copywriting.

The wrong number SMS had my attention, but the chemist directions reminds me of the following version of the age old Christmas carol, which relates to the famous (or infamous) UK age old 'cure-all' and laxative, Beechams Powders: "Hark the Herald Angels sing, Beechams is the very thing, Peace on earth and mercy mild, Two for an adult, one for a child." "If you want to go to heaven, Take three, four, five, six or seven, If you want to go to hell, Take the whole damned box as well, If you want to go to hell, Take the whole damned box as well." 😇😇😇

Loved the pharmacist label and that people like me try to make sense of the nonsensical :-) The white dandruff is falling where we are right now also, at times like this I wish that the this cloudy God was bald.

I'm just amazed that a barber could or would make that hair look so like a squirrel -- or whatever it is intended to be, Kevin Pashuk! And thanks for sharing the post. I really appreciate it.

You are so welcome, @Robin Barton! I have lived in Massachusetts my entire life, and I love it -- winter and all. And yes, I'm sure I have a bit of an accent, although do we ever think WE have one?

Thanks for another buncha chuckles Susan. I do admit, I've seen several men walking around with dead animals on their heads... or perhaps it was sabotaging their attempt to appease their vanity by buying a cheap toupee.
