Challenge - Day 6

This will barely make it under the wire. It's Sunday, 11:17 p.m., right now. Today's subject: post a picture that makes you laugh.

I pondered and wondered about what makes me laugh. Sadly, I realized that I don't laugh enough. I love corn ball humor, though. (So did my dad.) "Confucious say" jokes are my favorite! But I don't have a picture to capture that feeling. I mean, yeah, I could have "borrowed" a fu-manchu, old-style drawing of an old Chinese man, but does that really do justice to a philosopher who lived a billion years ago? OK, I may be exaggerating.

The picture that I originally posted is pretty hilarious, IMO. Blackmail for the future, I'm guessing, as well. I won't identify the kiddo in trouble (and the nakedness was his choosing), but feel free to guess. Timeouts must come when they must is the moral of that story, I suppose.

THERE WAS A NAKED-BUTT PICTURE OF ONE OF MY BOYS (AROUND AGE 2) STANDING IN THE CORNER FOR A TIMEOUT. BUT A FAMILY MEMBER SUGGESTED I REMOVE IT FOR FEAR OF PROVOKING THE CHILD PORNOGRAPHY FANATICS. NO BIGGIE. I REMOVED IT.

Lisa Lampanelli and Gina Yashere are 2 comediennes that I like. Vulgar, yes. Crude, yes. JUST LIKE ME. (But, as a side note, I don't care for potty humor. Sexual explicity and veracity are fine, in my warped mind, though.)

The Bill Cosby album "Himself" and Steve Martin's movie "Parenthood" crack me up because they are so poignant about parenting for all the different stages you go through as a mom or dad. Watch these (now) DVDs each year or 2, and you'll see something new. I guess that's the clean side of my personality, as opposed to the polar opposite side mentioned with the above comediennes.

I realized with this rather difficult exercise that I can say "aww" to many things. I'll "smile" at touching moments/snapshots. I'll even admit to the "cute" photos of my family or others. But laughter was one that was tough to come by for me.

And, by the way, I didn't make it before the midnight deadline. Good thing I'm not being graded on this project. :)
