Jack Handey

I'm too busy today to write a real post...I'm doing stuff like Facebooking, downloading apps, Google Earthing where you live, napping, eating, napping again, making stuff with chocolate, feeding the two animals, feeding Blue and Joaquin...you know, the norm. So, I'll just post some of my favorite Jack Handey quotes. Hey, at least I care enough to copy and paste.

I'm gone the rest of the week, but I'll be back Monday with pictures and stories and probably some pictures and maybe some stories. Hugs!



Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth you'd probably be able to get a lot of free games.

The difference between a man and a boy is, a boy wants to grow up to be a fireman, but a man wants to grow up to be a giant monster fireman.

I hope some animal never bores a hole in my head and lays its eggs in my brain, because later you might think you're having a good idea but it's just eggs hatching.

As I bit into the nectarine, it had a crisp juiciness about it that was very pleasurable - until I realized it wasn't a nectarine at all, but A HUMAN HEAD!

If you saw two guys named Hambone and Flippy, which one would you think liked dolphins most? I'd say Flippy, wouldn't you? You'd be wrong though. It's Hambone.

I hope that someday we will be able to put away our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.

Somebody told me it was frightening how much topsoil we are losing each year, but I told that story around the campfire and nobody got scared.

Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that, I'll be over here, looking through your stuff.

I bet a fun thing would be to go way back in time to where there was going to be an eclipse and tell the cave men, "If I have come to destroy you, may the sun be blotted out from the sky." Just then the eclipse would start, and they'd probably try to kill you or something, but then you could explain about the rotation of the moon and all, and everyone would get a good laugh.

Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

When I was a kid my favorite relative was Uncle Caveman. After school we'd all go play in his cave, and every once in a while he would eat one of us. It wasn't until later that I found out that Uncle Caveman was a bear.

Laurie got offended that I used the word "puke." But to me, that's what her dinner tasted like.

Here's a good trick: Get a job as a judge at the Olympics. Then, if some guy sets a world record, pretend that you didn't see it and go, "Okay, is everybody ready to start now?".

Instead of studying for finals, what about just going to the Bahamas and catching some rays? Maybe you'll flunk, but you might have flunked anyway; that's my point.

Sometimes life seems like a dream, especially when I look down and see that I forgot to put on my pants.

A funny thing is if you're out hiking and your friend gets bit by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going for help, then go about ten feet and pretend YOU got bit by a snake. Then start an argument about who's going to get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke.

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying". And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did".

I bet a funny thing about driving a car off a cliff is, while you're in midair, you still hit those brakes.

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

On the other hand, you have different fingers.
