I Was Only Joking!

Happy Friday Folks,

I figured since we've had some rough things happening around lately (my uncle's death, Bane's grandfather's death--for which, Bane, I'm truly sorry about the loss of your Grandfather. People being sick, that kind of thing) that we all needed a laugh.

So, I thought today would be a day to post some jokes.

This one my junior year of high school History teacher told us:

"A mushroom walks into a bar and the bartender says 'We don't serve your kind here.' The mushroom says, 'Why not? I'm a fungi.'"

"Knock Knock"
"Who's there?"
"Boo!"
"Boo who?"
"Don't cry!"

My Dad told me this one:

"Jesus, Moses, and Peter were out golfing one day. Moses went up first and hit his into the water trap. He goes out, parts the water, gets his ball back and redoes the shot. Peter's up next. He hits the ball, it lands in the water trap, he pulls out his net and brings it back. Then it's Jesus's turn. He hits the ball, it lands in the water, he walks out onto the water to get it. This happens again. Another group is waiting their turn and says to Peter, 'Who does this guy think he is? Jesus Christ?' Peter says, 'He IS Jesus. He THINKS He's Tiger Woods."

Out here in Texas, Aggie jokes are popular because of Texas A&M Aggies, so in the spirit of supporting the local colleges I give you this Aggie Joke:

How many Aggies does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Answer: Three. One to hold the light bulb and 2 to turn the one holding the light bulb.

(I actually am not for or against Texas A&M or UT at Austin. I don't care who wins. I have a brother who's in Grad school at Texas Tech, so for his sake, I hope Tech does well at its games, but otherwise, I don't have an opinion).

One time I wasn't watching where I was going and tripped over a tree stump. The funny thing was, a friend of mine had tripped over the very same one some time before. I guess it's true what they say about good friends: they do nearly everything together. Including tripping over tree stumps.

Feel free to share your jokes!

Have A Funny Friday!

It's Worth A Fortune

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
