I'm guessing the firm of Madden, Looney and Nutts is represented by the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe?
ReplyDeleteHa! I was once on that "Small World" ride at Disneyland and it broke down, leaving us stranded in front of the little Dutch windmill for an hour while they fixed the ride, and that song played the entire time, driving me nuts.
ReplyDeleteWorse than waterboarding!!
DeleteA good gender neutral title would be nothing ... Hmm, seems that's how my card rolls.
ReplyDeleteOn your gender choies you forgot COM and COW (cranky old man/crank old woman). And was that not a fantastic shot and a glorious moment for that young man.
ReplyDeleteLoL! I can see how that Ferrari incident happened... No way I'd go out without a fight to drive it.
ReplyDeleteSome of my best moments in life have been spent duct taped to a stop sign.
ReplyDeleteDon't knock it.
The only news worth reading these days
ReplyDeleteI just love these headlines. I like your responses to them better.
ReplyDeleteI linked you to Silly Sunday.
Have a fabulous day. ☺
The first thing to know when you add a deck is what house you live in. If you build a deck on your neighbor's house you may get mixed reactions. "What to Know About Adding a Deck"
ReplyDeleteHow were they all planning to fit into the Ferrari? That would be better than the old stuffing a VW Beetle contests.
ReplyDeleteThat non-stop trucker probably went right past the man duct-taped to a street sign without even waving!
ReplyDeleteI'm lobbying for ofrt for old fart.
ReplyDeleteWhat is with guys and duct tape? I remember guys in school duct taping other guys to the benches in PE. :)
ReplyDeleteWell see, the guy just happened to have an asteroid kicking around, and was wondering what to do with it. . .
ReplyDeleteBut how does the bank verify if someone really has no gender?
