Friday Foolishness – Post Apocalyptic Edition


Today’s Music: Jimmy Witherspoon – Good Rockin’ Tonight

Welcome back to the Friday Foolishness, after a tumultuous week.
I’m thinking about using this space at the top of the Friday Foolishness space to highlight some of the posts I’ve seen over the week.
Thoughts? (After all, you guys are going to have to read it…)

But for now, lets just jump in to last weeks results, shall we?
Many of you had excellent ideas for how to spend your Friday the 13th (as always, italics are mine):
Um.. I think it is the 12th..Are you SURE?? Cause I think it’s not. lizziec
(Great, now I’m confused too…)
Q-tip my ears: Barking In The Dark
(No no, we stopped singing the hokey pokey. I hope…)
Drink myself blind and quiet the voices
(Quiets all the voices for me. Except the ones that tell me to keep drinking…)
make sure not to sit in row 13 on flight 1356 from Denver (yikes!)
(I sincerely hope you made it back ok!)
Bag the blow-up doll idea and make my hair look like Sarah Palin’s
(Perhaps make the blow-up dolls hair look like Sarah Palins instead?)
Toss Mensa daughter’s bedroom for good drugs. Friday the 13th is a lucky day!
(I can’t condone that kind of behavior! If you found any, I insist you turn them over at once to me for proper…disposal. hehehe)
Get out my Anal Probe kit.
(I knew that was you!!!)
Write an angry letter to my congressman about how there keeps being Friday 13ths
(Good luck. But I’m not sure many in the current congress know how to read…)
…be closing on my house. Nope! The builder pushed it back 5 weeks. Grumble.
(That sucks. But it does leave you time to participate in a bunch more of these polls!)
Wait, it’s the 13th – of January? That was one hellava hangover. Sandylikeabeach
(I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. You,young lady, are an inspiration. And I’m pretty sure you just one this weeks poll for that!!!)

Well, Sandylikeabeach wins this week’s poll (It almost went to H.E. Ellisfor being the only one to pick BRRRRAAAIINNSSS!!!. But I’m not sure I should be encouraging that kind of thing…)
And for those who want to know, the most chosen answer this poll was
I don’t care what the date is – it’s FRIDAY!!!!! WOOHOO!!!

Which leaves us with this weeks poll.
The big event this week was the Anti SOPA/PIPA.
Which made me wonder… (polling closes next Thurs at Midnight)
(Leave your name if you enter an other for a linkback)(and so we know who said what!)

And to keep you amused until next week (or the internet does shut down)…
The Woody Allen Firetruck routine.
Enjoy, vote often, see you around the bend…

      This was the days before the internet was everywhere.He’s great stuff.
      I’m going to look up Alexander now.

  8. Hi,
    If the internet does go on “censorship” I’m pretty sure the video you posted would be illegal. đŸ˜€
    Loved it by the way.
    Oddly enough the “Stop Censorship” ribbons don’t always show up in IE8, but are showing up using Firefox, the wonders of the net. đŸ™‚

  11. Um…i ran out of room and had to vote twice to finish it. I don’t think you will have too much problem linking the 2 together…let me know though.
    My thoughts on the idea you have in mind –
    I like the idea of the posts at the top. Go for it!! If you build it they will come..where the HELL did that come from? But it seems to fit you. I mean you get what Im saying?
    Great fun and silliness as always Dude (that abides) and LMAO I just went on a little tangent that hahahahahah oh goodness – like the Guapster – makin copies and with that I will be on my way. I think I poked my brain too hard with the Q-Tip there seems to be a short. .

  12. EG: Great Friday read, as always. Dig the old Woody Allen bit too. Damn, haven’t heard it for a longgggg time.
    Ooops. left an ‘other’ comment but not my name. just suffice that it has to do with one of my favorite, yet least practiced these days, past times.

    Thanks my friend. Enjoyable and fun read as always!

    • I was hoping you’d like the Woody Allen bit, Rachael.
      And with your uniqueness, I’m guessing I’ll be able to pick out your comment – you have a way about you and a definite unique style that makes it easy to pick out!

  13. Loving the Woody Allen bit. Especially since I’ve been hypnotized so many times. The first being in Vegas at a hypnotist show called Dr. Naughty. On stage I ended up slapping the hell out of a massive dildo held in the appropriate place by an unknown man. At the end (apparently we weren’t quite done) when we were asked to return to our seats in the audience he said a key word and I jump straight into my theater chair, exposing all sorts of crack in my too low jeans, screaming about a rat.
    I know this because I bought the video. I didn’t really think there was anything odd going on at the time. Some might call me impressionable.

  14. As much as I’d love to post it I don’t even know where it is. And….. it’s on cassette tape, yeah, we’re not talking recent, we’re talking New Year 2001/02. So… maybe it’ll still exist somewhere in my crap that’s in storage and I’ll find it when we move into the NEW BIG HOUSE next month.

  15. Well, I’m very sad because I voted Other, but I don’t think my actual write-in appears. It was “go back to making latchhook toilet seat covers.” Yes, I was proud enough of that comment to type it twice.

    • It’s there, whatimeant2say. It just doesn’t show them, so I list them on the next weeks page.
      Um…congratulations on a…unique skill!
      Were they for the lid too or just the seat?
      Because I’ve found that if there’s one on each, then it’s too thick and they won’t stay up. Which, as a guy, is a problem…

  16. Well there’s no real reason for exaggeration here. I haven’t seen 35 pairs of shoes for 18 months, or about 10 trash bags of clothing….I don’t even know what I’ve got in there! Videos, more like the bottom of the list in comparison. However, it’s quite possible they still exist.
