It’s that time again.
The Point of Musical Monday is to cheer me (and you) up because I’ve been really down lately. However, I’m not actually down today.
Here are just some of The Feel Good Things I’ve been doing this week:
Exercising. I’ve become bored of being Mr-Burns-weak and have decided to become FIT. I know I tried that once before, and it only lasted three days, but I’m going to stick at it this time.
Eating. I discovered a whole vegan chilled section at Tesco that I didn’t know existed.
Looking after a pet. The Tortoises are here and caring for another living being does make life a lot more fulfilling.
Watching TV. I’m watching the final season of Frasier which is probably the most deliciously over the top and therefore energetically hilarious.
Messing about on Twitter. A while back I discovered a whole bunch of fellow Philip Quast fans on Twitter and this week I asked them to cheer me up. As well as sending me some wonderful Quast-stuff, we started telling terrible jokes and one of them led into a stream of awful punning.
Q: How much do pirates pay for corn? A: A buccaneer...
That's so corny! Arghhhh... ;)
Or maybe it's too a-maize-ing! Gah, someone stop me, please! ;)
I can barley take any more of this.
Getting lots of mileage out of this kernel, aren't ya?? ;p
There's a grain of truth in that. :p
Same here. I canola take so much. ;p
You are cereal killers of jokes.
We're a bit flaky, yes.
But I still want you all to have a rice day
With a bran like yours, I'd expect you to come up with better jokes.
Perhaps wheat better stop.
Giggling must stop.. Need to go oatside and get some fresh air...
I corncur. ;p
This has brought such a rye smile to my face.
Good clean fun...no bulgur comments
hay, this has been fun.
Your punning is ex-straw-dinary.
It'll take me a while to millet over.
Even though I'm squirming with every fiber of my being.
I can seed why it'd take a while.
Who planted this idea to begin with...
Oh, who planted the SEED, you mean! ;)
Now, now, no blaming, be a good spore.
I think you may have spelt that wrong. ;))
As exciting as this has been, I must go. There's polenta for me to do.
Semolina.
I couldn't think of any more and I couldn't work out how to get that one in.
Thought you were just pollen my leg for a minute... Glad there wasn't a hidden meaning lost on me ;)
No, I'm seriously (cerealsly?) stumped (does stump count?).
Sure! I certainly won't bark about it ..
Thanks, then I won't grass you up either.
Thanks.. We don't want any deep rooted hostilities
Shoot, I just can't think of any more.
and we've done rather well, for peat's sake...
weed better not stop now!
I'm having sow much fun.
Glad no one's told me to sod off yet
If they did, it would soil our fun.
they can just leaf us alone then!
Don't worry, it'll be vine.
just because we're willing to go out on a limb...
How could you not feel UP after that?
But there’s always room for a musical number.
And this week, while rooting out the films I took of The Tortoises two years ago, I came across this video from Christmas 2010:
That was like The Fifth Take or something, because Woody kept messing it up by speaking (he does in this one too, but at least he didn't cut me off for once). (Woody ALWAYS cuts me off.)
So I know exactly what musical number to pick – although technically not a musical number, it is a song from the character’s perspective so I figure it counts. Plus I LOVE it.
Strange Things from Toy Story
Written and performed by Randy Newman.
Scrolling endlessly through those puns made me cringe until I resembled a pretzel.
