There are only two kinds of funny.
Planned funny. And not planned funny.
I'm gonna give you a great example of planned funny.
The other night I needed something from Hoag and I asked if I could stop over to his place after work.
He said sure.
I told him I'd be there around 6:10.
Ever punctual, I show up around 6:10, knock on door and let myself in.
He ain't inside....but I notice thru the sliding glass doors that he's outside. So I saunter on out back.
And here is what I see:
Hoag is lounging in his robe on an anti-gravity chaise loungey thing.
He's smoking a cuban (cigar)
He has an ice bucket next to him filled with two bottles of champagne (one half empty) and a filled glass to his lips.
He's wearing some kinda funky Elvisey ray-ban sunglasses
There is some thin hose thingy spraying him down with a fine mist of water.
His wife is standing next to him, hand feeding him fresh strawberries.
That my friends is planned funny.
(Unplanned funny would be if one of you showed up at his house and I was the one feeding him the strawberries.)

ReplyDeleteDoes this happen often?
And unplanned awkward would be if we showed up a bit later in the evening.
ReplyDeleteOh, Bacon Ace...it's gonna take a helluva lot of donuts to erase THAT mental image. Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteTry pudding. It soooooths.
ReplyDeleteFUNNY!!!!! The kind of funny made up of lesser sorts of funny!
ReplyDeleteBut, wait. I think I must ask this. Are you sure it was planned funny, and not just a typical Tuesday night? Sure sure?
Sparkle:
ReplyDeleteNo, no...they do THAT on Thursday nights, remember?
Sometimes a cigar is more than a cigar...
ReplyDeleteWhat if the Beatles sang about Buddy Love?
ReplyDelete* Strawberry Feeds Forever
* I Wanna Hold Your Cigar
* Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Hoagy
* I'll Follow the Champagne
It just now occurred to me to wonder what the heck an anti-gravity lounge chair is.
ReplyDeleteEither you folks down south (and you're all south of me) are more advanced than I realized...or I'm missing something.
Or both.
Anti-gravity lounge chairs are half off if you buy two rocket packs!
ReplyDeleteAnd to think we got stuck with dinosaurs.
ReplyDeleteThis bites!
ReplyDeleteHey! Leave us outta this!
