Brevity by Dan Thompson for December 15, 2012

After he was issued the duck he started not being completely truthful with his mother… he’s now ducking the issue.

Okay……..

I think it’s supposed to be a pun…

He says he’s been spending some time feeling the down on the goose…. Mommy thinks he means he’s sad.Hilarity ensues.

If that’s not it, by not recognising some character or situation here, I once again failed my cultural literacy test.

Down we now our quail apparel……BTW, who knows what she’s got on her lap?….The fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree…..

You know, if he had a swan on his lap, it would be sing his swan song about now….Don’t mess with those guys. for years, I saw one swan and his mate keep every other swan off this lake. They’d have a couple of kids and then send them on their way, and don’t come back. Lots of swans tried to get on the lake. (There are at least twenty over on Maple Lake right now.) Dude was freaky, though. Instead of flying after them, he would lower his head and neck and swim (much faster than you can imagine) towards the intruders even if they were on the other side of the lake… As he got closer, they would just fly off. He just spooked ’em…

well, I did hear the story about the seven dwarves in the hot tub feeling happy … ok, I’ll skip the punchline.

Wait a minute Otto, that wasn’t the punch line?

beviek, yup! SusanPunshine knows all and sees all…

Aw you guys…

Affffflaac!

All is just ducky !!

How do you get down off an elephant?

Q: How do you get down from a horse?A: You don’t get down from a horse; you get down from a duck.

She wanted grandchildren. She didn’t think they would be born knowing how to swim.

I don’t want my sons to tell me when they are feeling up down.

Put the duck down and you won’t feel down any more (or less).

I was distracted by the black tree, and thought the bird was a duck. Goose makes sense. Still…

Instead of calling his mommy he should call his shrink (but he’s probably a quack…..) Oh, what tangled webbed feet we weave when we’re feeling down!

I was feeling lucky one day…and my dad yelled at me to get my hands off the dog (“Here, Lucky!”)

I thought that he was talking to Siri on his i Phone, and that he changed Siri’s name to Mother. Just a thought.
