Serving up leftovers for Need a Laugh Wednesday

It never fails that whatever I choose as my topic for Need a Laugh Wednesday, invariably I later find something brilliant on that theme I wish I had included. So I'm serving up leftovers today.

My very first Need a Laugh was devoted to Beading Humor, so here's another serving. (I think I saw this on Mortira's Inspirational Beading Facebook page last week).



That was followed by some grammar gibes. So here's another heap o' snark:

And here, let me freshen your coffee:


When I featured cat humor, I meant to include this video. At the time, our rascally kittens were really into unrolling the toilet paper roll every chance they got, and I was sure they would graduate to this trick. Luckily, they haven't yet!

Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew the bills weren't representative of their actual usage, and no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued. Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems; first the water meter, then outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc., all to no avail. One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed trying to rest but kept hearing water running downstairs. He finally got up to investigate and stumbled onto the cause of his high water bills.

And who among us has not mixed different leftovers together to create something new? Behold, a serving of combined grammar-cat humor!

Need a Laugh Wednesday: Coffee Humor



This installment of Need a Laugh Wednesday is as revealing about me as my grammar humor one was--people who know me well know that I am a coffee fiend.

Hey, I had a French press coffee maker way back in 1982 and was drinking cappuccino in the days where the only places you could buy the stuff outside Europe were a handful of coffeehouses in Greenwich Village. A pinboard devoted to coffee was one of my earliest Pinterest projects.





I have to confess that I used to drink quadruple shots of espresso.

The one below is not humor, but it's so magnificent I have to share--it's a portrait made of coffee rings.




And look--since this is a jewelry blog, I'll finish up with a different kind of coffee ring. How cool is this?



P.S. some of you may have missed my last Need a Laugh installment, featuring Tina Fey--I published it last Wednesday but with the wrong date, so it showed up among the July posts. I've corrected it.
