Free Prose Friday - 8/17/2007

Posted Friday, August 17, 2007 11:34 AM by Joe Napalm

1. I have a soundtrack playing in my head at all times. And this week the William Tell Overture has played nonstop.

2. Speaking of the William Tell Overture, did you know that in Brazil the Lone Ranger is known as "Zorro" and that Zorro is also known as "Zorro"? How confusing.

3. For Uncle Jesse: Criteria for the proper tactical usage of the phrase "oh, snap" [link].

4. And, while you're at Flickr.com, check out this sweet digital news stand [link]. I ran this by Mrs. Napalm earlier this week and asked if we could do the same thing except use it as a television. It would fit well with our brickabrack.

5. It is about time to plan the annual Joe Napalm backpacking trip. The days are getting shorter and the weather cooler. Who's in?

6. Have a wonderfully wonderful weekend. I feel the creative juices beginning to course through my veins. I expect better material to begin flowing anytime. This weekend in the Hamptons will inspire me to greatness. Now what are you doing at your computer? Get outside. Now.

1) odd

2) really odd

3) not so odd, a little strange

4) Not at all odd, pretty cool.  Put your letter in to Santa.

5) You have cooler weather?  Odd.

6) Uhhh... ok, ok, I'm going...

Joe, count me in on the backpacking trip.  I have been thinking about this for some time.  Let's discuss in the war room on Sunday.

1. I love the William Tell Overture!

Dum de Dum...Dum de Dum...Dum de Dum Dum Dum! Big Smile

2. Confusing! Confused

5. It's a little chilly here too...

6. Have a great weekend! (And I'm saying that to everyone, not just Mr. Napalm).

Joe, I want you to know that you and Fluffy Cow would make the best stand up comedy team.  She (or "it"?) is funny in an offbeat way.  Odd, indeed!  Of course, I might learn this kind of oblique humor if I keep reading you and BJnotBK for long.

1.  Very unexpected!  Not what I would have thought.  More like Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World"! :)

2.  I wonder who would feel more insulted?

3.  Is this the phrase of the week?

4.  This is the style of bric-a-brac you have at home?  Hummmm...

5.  Cooler?!?  Where exactly is your location...the North Pole?

6.  I will anticipate your wonderful new creative posts after your outdoors time this weekend.

nfrancis-

Yes, "she" would be correct!  See... it says Fluffy COW, not Fluffy BULL!!  (That just sounds wrong.)  I'll take your remarks as a compliment!  Seeming as how it was Joe's humor that got me hanging around here in the first place.  Of course, now he'll be dead serious to see if I'll go away...

1. Oh fun! LOL!

2. Hmmm...

5. Sounds like fun!  Have a great time!

6. Oh, but if I go out NOW I'll get soaked!  It's raining cats and dogs out right now.  Oh look!  There goes a fluffy cow!

Wet cows are usually not too fluffy...
