Thirteen things I have never seen suspended in a vat of jello

1. Two-headed yak
2. Number Two pencil
3. Dick Cheney
4. Welcome mat
5. Pregnancy test
6. Curtains
7. Crescent wrench
8. Blue daisies
9. Rear view mirror
10. Chihuahua ("Yo Quiero Jello")
11. Jock strap
12. Starfish with only four arms
13. Extension cord
.

BTW, if any of you are wondering how I'm doing with this cold/virus/evil-gypsy-curse, my recent Jantrails post explains it pretty well.

Well, I guess I could say...Me Neither! I hate jello!

Well whoop-do-dooo, look at you, flaunting your naievete like a flatulent newborn. "I've never seen this, and I've never seen that" (flailing my arms while I mock).

In MY day, we didn't HAVE stuff we didn't have. If we hadn't seen it, we SAW it. And we didn't go BLOG about it, neither.

You should check out http://www.lileks.com/institute/gallery/
Especially the Knox Gelatin bit. You might be surprised.

CWM: Would you like jello MORE, (or less), if Dick Cheney was suspended in it?

Whall: Do you ALWAYS drink a fifth of Bacardi before you read my blog?

Gwen: LOL! I love it! What a treasure trove of vintage hilarity.

EvilGenius: I think a lot of people would. Maybe we can start taking up a collection.

There are lots of people I'd pay to see in a vat of Jello (especially nude).... Dick Cheney is not one of them.

Janna said...

Marilyn: You should make a top ten list!

I had a feeling you'd get the humour. When I first read his book I nearly pissed myself laughing just at his comments.

Janna said...

Gwen: I'm still twitching at some of the horrible jello ideas it showed. Like jello-ing a big slab of meat, for instance. Ack! It might as well have BEEN Dick Cheney.

Now I know what to bring to your house if you ever invite me over for dinner.

But you're an industrious kind of gal and you could probably arrange to see a couple of those things if you really put your mind to the task.

#11: Well, now I know what to get you for Christmas!
And here, I was gonna use the Swiss Colony catalog for ideas! Silly mo!

Janna said...

Gwen: Ack!

Travis: Or I could use my industriousness to just send out for pizza instead.

Morgen: No! No! Go back to the catalog! The catalog is good!

Janna, Dick Cheney should be suspended in a vat of Jello! :)

Janna said...

TheTeach: Yes! On live TV! With an audience! Maybe on New Year's Eve in Times Square....
