Monday Funnies

Ah yes, Monday has arrived…

So let’s get on with fixing the train wreck.


I think I dated her sister in college… and speaking of dates:

And some Christmas leftovers, “Bad Elf” division:

Finally, here’s Charlotte McSkinny (who is not an elf) and her legs:

Admit it:  you never got that far down, did you?

Get on with yer week, ya pervs.

Monday Funnies

So here we go with the usual selection of tasteless yet refined nonsense, this time centered around the weekend’s partying:


And just for the hell of it, an after-party shot:

Happy Monday, y’all.

Monday Funnies

…and the Monday after Christmas, even more reason to be happy:

…or something like that.

And a Christmas message:

And from my own family (Daughter and Son&Heir exchange):

And from the Bad Elf! Bad Elf! Bad Elf! Department:

And that’s it for this Monday.

3 Unnecessary Driving Skills

…in these here modern times:

  • Driving a manual transmission.  I’m not saying that the near-disappearance of the stick shift is a good thing — anything but — but it seems that most automobile owners today are quite comfortable with being steerers rather than drivers.

  • Parallel parking.  Other than in city streets, almost all parking spots are adjacent and not parallel.  I don’t remember in which state this happened (Pennsyvania?), but a woman sued the state’s driver’s code which mandated parallel parking proficiency, saying (quite rightly) that her inability to parallel park was a burden on nobody but herself, and any inconvenience suffered because she would have to drive around looking for non-parallel parking would be hers alone.  The judge agreed, and the rule was set aside.  I don’t know whether that’s spread to other states.

  • Reversing ability.  It seems that almost every car these days comes equipped with some kind of rearview camera and a warning system which beeps when you’re about to reverse into something.  I have to say that this modern geegaw is one that I heartily approve of, especially for Old Pharttes like myself for whom turning around in the seat is no longer the simple task that it once was.  (My 2013 VW Tiguan doesn’t have such a thing, and I wish it did.)
