Friday Funnies

Hi,

Whoa, another Friday already. We ended the week with the promise of pressure. Water pressure, that is. We met with the waterworks guy and we're getting a 'Lucky Star' pump, with a two year guarantee and, as he put it, 'strong water'.

Check out this segue. Speaking of water, I'm impressed with how many remembered "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull. It had nothing to do with water, but oh well. Let's head back to 1963, when there were seasons, and we had to walk places.

"Oh, how you tried, to cut me down to size, tellin' dirty lies to my friends. But my own father said: 'Give her up, don't bother. The world isn't comin' to an end.' He said, __ __ __ __, talk like a man __ __ __ __ my son." Clues: You got your clues already.

Tomorrow we're having lunch with Dee, who we hope will become a new friend. Then we'll probably cruise down to the boulevard.

I'm going to sign off early today so I can make way for the 'Funnies'. These were sent in by Blue. Have a Fantastic WeekEnd.

Peace,

Danny


Dear Redneck Son,

I'm writing this slow because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happen within 20 miles of your home, so we moved. I won't be able to send you the address because the last Lousiana family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so they won't have to change their address.

This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure about it. I put a load of clothes in and pulled the chain. We haven't seen them since!

The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for 3 days and the second time for 4 days.

About that coat you wanted me to send; your uncle Billy Bob said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.

Bubba locked the keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your father out!

Your sister had a baby this morning, but I haven't found out what it is yet ...so I don't know if you're an aunt or an uncle.

Uncle Bobby Ray fell into a whiskey vat last week. Some men tried to pull him out but he fought them off and drowned. We had him cremated, he burned for days!

Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pickup truck. Butch was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your other two friends were in the back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate down!

There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much out of the normal has happened.

Your favorite aunt,
Mom
