Riddle:
Q: Why do we love knockers?
A: Because they are something to a-door!
Boom boom!
And now for something completely silly.
A one armed, one leg’d man I saw,
one eyebrow gone, but there was more;
one eye, one ear
and worse I fear;
His house had only half a door!

Now I could say something rude about a one-eyed trouser snake but I better not, for the sake of internet civility and all that jazz :)You are a very silly man Stafford - keep it up (boom, boom).
ReplyDeletethere once was guy down under
ReplyDeletewho lived on a hill;
he wouldn't,
but his kangeroo will!
(bada-boom)
Wait until you check out your
poem on my site.
And now for something completely silly - you mean the Basil Brush bit wasn't?
ReplyDeleteSmiles all round from me! :)
ReplyDeleteYou remind me of Groucho Marx with your fast-moving repartee. You don't smoke cigars, do you? It is also possible you might be channelling Spike Milligan.
ReplyDeleteKeep the chuckles comin'....

ReplyDelete"His house had only half a door."

ReplyDeleteHi Stafford,
ReplyDeleteYour fun response to an image that mostly gets a sombre reaction is quite refreshing!
I just love your work! I'm always trying to think of clever things like this, but it's just not in me. Makes me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteSmiles and more smiles ... brilliant!
ReplyDeletethanks for the giggle
ReplyDeleteU r a funny, silly, man.
ReplyDeletehaha. the comments are as delightful as your playfulness...and i guess the guy was rather half empty kind eh?
ReplyDeleteWhy do men name their penises?
ReplyDeleteBecause they don't want a complete stranger making all of their decisions!
:)
If only a half a door is necessary then a full door is redundant...sorry...must be the tequila.
ReplyDeletelove your style--thank you for the laughter! great magpie!
