All The World’s A Stage

I was coming up empty today, friends … uninspired, tired, and dragging my sorry ass around the house. Then I came across this brilliant post by my friend, Bluebird of Bitterness, and all was right in my little world. What’s that you say? You don’t like cats? Oh, FFS, don’t go getting your knickers in a twist; you don’t have to love cats or the theatre to appreciate these funnies. Blue always saves what is considered the best for the last. Let’s see if you agree. And while you’re here, check our what else is on Blue’s site; you’ll be glad you did!

An old man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig up his garden and plant vegetables, but the ground was too hard. He sat down and wrote a letter to his son, who was in the state penitentiary. 

Dear Fred,

It looks like I won’t be able to plant my garden this year. I’m too old to be digging up a garden plot. If only you were here, I know you’d dig the plot for me and all my troubles would be over. 

Love,
Dad

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Dear Dad,

Whatever you do, don’t dig up that garden that’s where I buried the bodies!

Love,
Fred

Early the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left.

The following day the old man received another letter from his son.

Dear Dad,

Go ahead and plant your garden now. That was the best I could do under the circumstances.

Love,
Fred

Speaking of plants, this is a photo of one I picked up several weeks ago; it’s a type of philodendron called “Prince of Orange”:

And this is what it looks like now after a few weeks of water and sun; I just repotted into a larger pot; now I’m going to stand back and watch what happens. I’ve been thinking I should name it Audrey III!

It looks a bit prehistoric, doesn’t it? All that new reddish growth will unfurl into giant-sized leaves; if you look closely you can see some are already beginning to unfurl. This is one of the largest plants I have. Stay tuned for Audrey III’s growth over the next few weeks.

See you next time!

From Little Shop Of Horrors, this is “Feed Me”, sung by Levi Stubbs of the Four Tops.

Smile, Already

There are few things better than waking up feeling happy and in a good mood. It doesn’t matter how you got to that happy place, as long as it didn’t result in someone else’s unhappiness. If you woke up feeling glum, chum, I’m sure this piece of fun from the Bluebird of Bitterness will take that frown and turn it upside down! Looking for a smile? Click here!

This is Rufus Wainwright doing his best Judy Garland singing “Get Happy”. Check out those gorgeous gams!
