I hear unemployment rates are down and businesses are dropping their Cobvid restrictions about having to work from home, so more people than ever are now joyfully springing from their beds on Monday morning to head off to work on a Monday morning. Hooray for not having to loaf around at home in pajamasContinue reading “Takin’ What They’re Givin’”

Eat, Drink, and Be Harried
Ah, Monday: the dawn of a new week, a time for new beginnings, new challenges, new opportunities! And old jokes. We pick up the quiz with another section on Food Jokes, though I think this might also be Diner Jokes or Wait Staff Jokes. Just don’t tell these to your waiter or waitress. Continue reading “Eat, Drink, and Be Harried”
Moldy Miscellany
And here we are again, on another Monday, preparing to face the week. What is the one thing you need to be fully prepared? A good breakfast? Aspirin? A few red jellybeans? No, what we need is another old joke quiz? (If you knew the answer already, you are ready for both theContinue reading “Moldy Miscellany”
Hard Thinking
It is Monday, and time for another old joke quiz. The theme for this Monday is one which has perhaps changed its name with the new century. Once these were known as moron jokes, or dumbbell jokes, or some such. I prefer, as someone who has frequently decided to save time by washing theContinue reading “Hard Thinking”
The Animal Fair
Monday again already? That day of the week when this blog turns away from postcards I have for sale and reflects on a book I couldn’t sell? Why, yes! Yes, it is! Prepare for another quiz filled with old jokes devoid of punchlines, extracted from that quizbook I could not convince any publisher toContinue reading “The Animal Fair”

Here it is, the first Monday of Spring, a season of newness: new leaves, new baby animals, new flowers. BUT it is universally regarded as a spirit of rebirth: those new buds are on old trees which have seemed dead over the winter, and those old lawns are born again and will need mowingContinue reading “Lime + Coconut”
Cabbage Collection
The city where I live does not want to let St. Patrick’s Day go by unobserved. It has been the custom, even in the depths of the pandemic, when the holiday falls in the middle of the week, to observe two St. Patrick’s Day weekends. In addition, there are plenty of people who addContinue reading “Cabbage Collection”
Zap: Snap!

Anyhow, Monday is Old Joke Quiz Day around here. So here is a collection of tart remarks (catch that one, did you? Continue reading “Zap: Snap!”
What’s the Story, Morning Glory?
In my pursuit of archaic humor, I rely, as any detective would, on a combination of information and deduction. I have learned, when a caption aooears on postcards by different artists, to check the world of advertising or the realm of pop song. This has led me to a greater familiarity of the recordingsContinue reading “What’s the Story, Morning Glory?”
Back to the Cornfield
Ah, here comes Monday once again, the day when people wake with foreboding to face the daily commute on a crowded thoroughfare or smelly train to get to the office. Don’t you wish you could drop it all and set up shop in rural America, where a person can WALK to the office (throughContinue reading “Back to the Cornfield”
