Sunday Chuckle: Clear Eyes II

A followup to Sunday Chuckle: Β Clear Eyes

Took my early morning walk recently. Β One of the roads we like also happens to be a hideout for teenage stoners. Β I found a “Clear Eyes” dropper for those red stoner eyes last time. Β This time, I think the stoners were rolling blunts!

 

Yah, mon.

Sunday Chuckle: Oh, Nevermind!

Because “the innocence of babies” and “the pain of childbirth” are exactly what I think of when it comes to Nirvana’s music.

Sunday Chuckle?

I love a nice cool walk on a beautiful summer morning. Β I always bring my camera, because sometimes you see some weird shit.

Sometimes you see nice nature stuff, like this snail.

Sometimes you see things that make you scratch your head. Β I’m not sure if this is a Sunday Chuckle or a WTF? Β What is a “Redneck Mafia”? Β Isn’t that something of an oxymoron? Β And a “NO-Club”? Β What is that?

A few weeks later he was back, looking like he was trying to make two parking spots for the price of one. Β Who is this guy?

Guess below in the comments. Β Or don’t. Β Whatever!

Sunday Chuckle: Game of Spoilers

STOPARRET

DO NOT READ IF YOU INTEND TO WATCH GAME OF THRONES, BUT HAVE NOT STARTED YET!

 

Two weeks ago, I began watching Game of Thrones from the beginning for the first time. Β Everyone at work is into it, so I finally took the plunge. Β Of course, it’s impossible to completely avoid spoilers.Β  I know there are dragons, White Walkers, and so on.Β  However I’ve remained gleefully spoiler free on most key happenings.Β  I am two seasons into the show, now midway through the third.

The other day at work, I was talking about how much I’m enjoying the show.Β  I mentioned some characters I didn’t like, such as Joffrey, Theon and “Kingslayer” Jaime Lannister, the greatest swordsman in the realm.

One friend asked, β€œJaime Lannister, is that the one-handed guy?”

At once everybody responded, β€œYes.”

Except me.

β€œHe loses his HAND??” I howled.

Fuck! Β Spoiled!

Sunday Chuckle: A Scottish Concussion

My sister, world-travelling bass clarinetist Kathryn Ladano, is in Scotland!

This should surprise no-one, but one of the things she is doing in Scotland is drinking beer.

As luck should have it, on her first day, she had a fall at a pub. I am assuming alcohol was involved, but that’s not important to the story. She spotted a black Scottish Schnauzer, and jumped up to see it. Β She bumped her head and injured her shoulder. In her email to the family, she said, “I have a lump, but I didn’t have to go to the hospital.” Glad she’s OK!

My dad read this email first, and he immediately announced to the family that “Kathryn had a great start to her vacation…got a concussion, dislocated a shoulder. In a hospital.”

Talk about misreading! My dad has been known to 1) stretch the truth, and 2) immediately go to worst-case scenario, but I’ve never seen anything like this before! Β She specifically said she didn’t have to go to the hospital, and she made sure to put that up front so my dad wouldn’t worry too much. Β Well shit!

 

 

Sunday Chuckle: Clear Eyes

Mrs. LeBrain and I enjoy a nice walk in the summer time. Β One of the roads we like also happens to be a hideout for teenage stoners. Β We once encountered a couple of them emerging from the trees. Β On this occasion we did not spot any stoners, only what they left behind…!
