And it looks like www.bluegobo.com is back up and running....sans the Ed Sullivan clips.

Good for Jeremy! I was sorry to see him closed down.

What's the difference between a vitamin and a hormone?

You can't make a "vita" "min".

(Think about it, say it loud....)

DR Jose, about Moma, I don't know yet. I'm waiting on schedules involving the Loesser office, the McGlinnvetory and the Library of Congress to line up before I can plan anything.

Why are gypsies noisy lovers?

Crystal balls!

Here's the joke our little Robbie told at his day camp program when he was about 5 years old:

What does a pig put on his sunburn?

OINK-ment!

A little bit of background on last night's closing number.

"Work on the closing number started late last week when Mr. Harris contacted Mr. Wittman and Mr. Shaiman, who the host had worked with on the viral . . ."

So we have a New York Times writer who can't even give us the correct objective case of "whom"? The national IQ drops everyday and now the Times is contributing to it! Neither the writer nor the proofreader caught this grammatical error?

That's a sure way to lose a man!
A sure, sure, sure, sure way to lose a man!
A splendid way to lose a man!

"Say, is that Hortense over there?"

"I don't think so--she looks pretty calm to me."

I guess my email to the Times worked! The sentence has been rewritten.

They had a doozy of a spelling error on the front page of their website last week... Which was pointed out by the son of one of their former lead editors... Via Twitter.

"Hey, do you know that whale they have over in the aquarium? Evidently, it needed to be circumcised."

"Yeah--from what I heard, they had to send down four skin divers."

Good morning, everyone.

I only have a few minutes here, then must get busy with Monday things.

Sam, I'm so sorry about your loss. I am, however, glad that it took place quietly and peacefully--the best way to go. Perhaps today's jokes will give you a bit of much-needed relief.

For those who are thinking about a Blu-ray player, I see that there will be a brand on sale in the Amazon Gold Box at 1 p.m. EDT for a limited time (stock on hand). I don't know what brand it is or what model it will be, but if you're the least bit interested, you might want to drop by there at 1 p.m. to see what it is.

Jeanne · « **Reply #72 on:** June 08, 2009, 08:16:22 AM »

I can think of no jokes at the moment, but I loved Ginny's about the oinkment.

TCB · « **Reply #73 on:** June 08, 2009, 08:17:48 AM »

My heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathy to Sam and her entire family

Matt H. · « **Reply #74 on:** June 08, 2009, 08:18:16 AM »

For someone who has memorized thousands of lines of dialog and hundreds of songs, I have no memory for jokes. I love them, and five seconds after I hear them and laugh at them, they're out of my head.

Matt H. · « **Reply #75 on:** June 08, 2009, 08:19:16 AM »

Me miss THE CLOSER? Surely you jest!

And don't call me Shirley.

As for Brett Michaels...

-He was supposed to head back up on the bandstand with the rest of his band mates - instead of holding for a few more seconds to milk some applause. -Once a rocker, always a rocker, I guess.

-The extent of his injuries: a "little bloody nose".

I guess I need to head down now to get cleaned up for my lunch out with best friend John.

Is tonight not also the premiere of Season 5 of Kathy Griffin's My Life on the D-List?

My friend said it didn't play well at all on television due to cutting and camera angles, etc. but it made me cry it was so exciting.

That seems to be the consensus on the Interwebs.

Whenever I hear these ads for the allergy treatment OMNARIS, I think the background music should be from AIDA.

I hope that if it involves chinchy basses, Edisaurus, that they get what's coming to them.
