Oddly Enough Blog
News, but not the serious kind
Your 40,000 comments are important to us…
Blog Guy, I see in the trade publications that your blog just hit a new milestone.
We have trade publications? Yes, I hit TWO milestones last week. I got my 30,000th follower on my Facebook Blog Network, and incredibly, I got my 40,000th reader comment, more than any of our other blogs.
You’ve had 40,000 comments? That’s amazing! Do you know your regular commenters personally?
No, I believe most of them are being held in secure locations for the good of society.
One of them comments mainly in haiku. One claims to be a swineherd, and another is a lawyer named Doc. One owns a pink pistol and a mandolin in Texas, and one sees his sister in almost every picture I post.
Baby, you said a mouthful!
Blog Guy, can you please settle a bet with my nephew’s archery instructor?
Okay, these wagers with members of unlikely professions are getting out of hand. What are you betting on this time? Something really stupid, I imagine.
Not at all. We disagree on which movie actress has the most teeth. I say it’s Julia Roberts, but the archer says it’s some actress named Delphine Chaneac.
Sorry, the archer has a point, so to speak. Here is Chaneac at Cannes, promoting her new film. Check out the set of fifty-six teeth jammed in-between those lips.
OMG! That’s just SO wrong! How does she even stretch her mouth open that wide?
It appears she generates power with small windmills on her shoes.
The prestigious Zippo Award goes to…
Blog Guy, why don’t you actually go to Cannes to cover that annual Film Festival?
Oh, I don’t smoke.
From the looks of our coverage every year Cannes is just one big ashtray, a throwback to the 1950s when nobody worried much about lungs.
And it’s not just that they smoke, it’s WHERE they smoke. Check out these photo captions. Lighting up during a news conference? Puffing away on the red carpet and during photo calls?
Really? You can’t go two minutes without smoking while the world press takes your picture?
Well gee now that you fixed it my comment makes no sense!
Oh wait…well played Mr. B. well played.
She’s armed with a good quote…
Quick quiz: The tattoo on the arm of actress Emily Browning, seen here at the Cannes Film Festival, says…
a) I’d like to thank my agent and manager…
b) When I’m 80, this will be a flabby, blurry smear…
c) If you can read this, you’re too close….
d) Note to self: never drink ouzo again…
e) A blessed unrest that keeps us marching…
Thanks for all of the clarification. I was getting very confused. You see, I thought this was a pic of a mannequin headed for the Goofy Face Wax Museum and the tattoo said, “Extremely flammable. Do not place near fire or flame.”

This is George, Daddy Tims favorite Rubber Crab Son, saying thanks to Malteser for referring to Dave and Papa, however they are retired from the United States Marine Corps, not the Army. Doc and Mr B are great Army type guys, but they are not retired from that bit of business.
Pa Rastus disappeared into the clouds on Saturday. Please, if any of you know where he was raptured off to, tell him that his son George wants to know where he hid the TV remote control, please!
