HUMOR ME
I collect koalas. No, not real, live koalas! I have koala statues, koala pictures, koala stuff of all kinds. I actually have thinned out my collection, keeping only the best ones. Of course, I also have koala jokes. So, here they are:
Koalafy: What
every athlete must do to play in the Australian Olympics
B.C. comic by Johnny Hart
The nun leaves and returns in a few minutes with a steaming cup. The pilot takes the cup gratefully, but upon taking a sip, instantly gags and spits it out. "This tea is filled with hair!", he exclaims disgustedly. "Oh, I'm dreadfully sorry!" The nun replies, "I forgot to tell you: The koala tea of Mercy is not strained." (A pun based on the phrase, "The quality of mercy is not strained." taken from The Merchant of Venice by William Shakespeare.)
A Koala walks into a
restaurant, sits down and orders dinner. After he has finished eating, the
waiter brings him his bill. The koala shoots the waiter and heads for the
door. The restaurant owner runs over and stops him. "You can't come
into my restaurant, eat my food, kill my waiter, and then walk out! Who do
you think you are?" The koala says "A Koala. Look it up." The owner gets a
dictionary and looks up koala. It say, "Marsupial. Eats shoots and leaves".
(You know, as in shoots and leaves off a eucalyptus tree!)

MIGHTY MOUSE
I'm a little fond of Mighty Mouse. He was a cartoon character quite a few years ago. I used to have a Mighty Mouse doll. It's body was made out of some kind of soft plastic and he had a cloth cape. When I picked a name to use on ICQ I picked Mighty Mouse. The reason is:
"For this cause we also, since
the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye
might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual
understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing,
being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
strengthened with all
might, according
to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with
joyfulness."
Col 1:9-11
That he would grant you,
according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with
might
by his Spirit in the inner man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts by
faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to
comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and
height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye
might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is
able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according
to the power that worketh in us, unto him be glory in the church by Christ
Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
Eph 3:16-21
So, here is my Mighty Mouse
collection:
Mighty Mouse first aired on
CBS on the "The Mighty Mouse Playhouse" on December 10th, 1955. He
was the first cartoon character ever to appear on Saturday mornings. The
show ran for 11 years and became the longest lasting Saturday morning
cartoon series. Pearl Pureheart was his girlfriend and his foe was
Oil Can Harry.
Here's the words to the theme
song:
Mr. Trouble never hangs around when he
hears this mighty sound,
"Here I come to save the day!" That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way! Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right, Mighty Mouse will join the fight! On the sea or on the land, He's got the situation well in hand!
I got the coolest email from a man
in Canada who makes kites. He used one of these pictures and put it
on a kite! The kite is called a pillow kite and is five feet wide by
three feet high. Mighty Mouse is over four feet long from fist to
tail! Isn't that neat?
FLY, Mighty Mouse, FLY!  When I was young I had a plain old rubber Mighty Mouse figure. I loved that doll. I would fly him around the yard. I even remember laying him down for him to sleep. His rubber eyes were wide open so I pretended they closed when I walked away. I found one just like it on Ebay!  Goofy looking, huh? I loved that doll! I could buy this one on Ebay for only $72.00. Har! The things I should have kept! Who woulda' thunk it? |
