... to the Forums.
It was that I decided to start this thread with all due respect to Gelbart and Shevelove (not to mention Mostel, Silvers, Gifford and Keaton of course!), because it is necesscary considering it is that time of fear. however, even though we are approaching the domain of goblins and goats, i do not want to be somewhat punditilating about the content - the creations need not be exclusively related to halloween just so long as the intent is to put readers into a properly amusing stitchuation. (The only request is that the effort should be an original creation, please, if at all possible.)
So on with the chow which will provide food for thought but not put anyone to sleep:
"Something familiar, something peculiar, something for everyone: a comady tonight!

This farmer spots a burglar on his property engaged in stealing.. He rushes out yelling, "Hay! Hay! Hay!". The burglar pleads with him saying, "Oh please do not report me I am out on bale." The farmer exclaims, "You guys always have an excuse - but this is the last straw!" The burglar replies, "Well, most people aren't as lucky as you - they go to school, then to loonyversity and they still can't find the work they were trained for - unlike yourself, who gets to work in his field." The farmer says, "Look I think you're stalling." The burglar retorts, "Well, I could be horse." So the farmer tells the burglar, "I think you're cowardly, but I'll give you a job anyway." The burglar feeling guilty exclaims, "Barn it all! I don't deserve it." However, he accepts and the two become friends after declaring a farmistice.

Was this farmer famous? Outstanding in his field? Was he cowed by the burglar? Good thing he didn't duck his responsibility and chicken out, that would have made him look a perfect @ss. I wish I could remember eggzactly what the yolk was and come out of my shell, but I'm afraid I'm full of bull.

i doubt if he would duck or chicken out - rather he would bear his birden well for waterever reason.
no problem that you don't remember eggzactly - your efforts are eggcellent and you deserve a standing ovulation.

OK. So I goes out to the old garage and the car, she has a flat tire, it's all holey and squashed. Its dark out there so's I needs a light and something to lift the car up. A jack and a lantern would do the trick, would be a treat if I had them, otherwise I'm afraid I don't have a ghost of a chance. OK, I got's the tire-hole plugged, now I need something to blow up the tire, some kind of pump-kin, I think's.
Originally posted by KneverKnightwell i hope you didn't find repairing the flat tiresome - seriously this sort of thing is messy and can colour your person as a result of repetitive stain sindrome. it can also be physically demanding too so you really need some airgonomic tools.
