Tie Breaker

It seems that with the two of us running this blog, we have no way to resolve disputes. Therefore, I am introducing a new cartoon character to the cast. Say Hello to Pat.

Pat will be a valuable addition to our group… and a tie breaker.

Puppet with button eyes.
DG: What the heck is that thing?

That is Pat, your new co-equal cartoon character. Pat is now sharing the responsibility of protecting the high quality of the humor on the blog.

Pat: I am Pat. I vote NO on dad jokes.
DG: That isn't a cartoon character. That's a hand puppet.

No, it’s not. Pat is a real cartoon character, with opinions and ideas… and a vote.

Pat: I have free will.
DG: And whose hand is working it? Yours?

Um….. maybe…..

DG: Not fair!

Blog Content Voting Begins

Hey! I thought that we decided not to put any more Dad jokes on the blog!

DG: No, we decided to vote on what to include in the blog. I vote for dad jokes.

Well, I vote for NO dad jokes.

DG: Well then I guess we are at an impasse. Fine!

Fine!

So that’s that.

We are done!

The voting is done.

Um. Aren’t you going to complete the joke?

DG whistling.

Oh. I see….. Well.

As long as you already started it, you might as well go ahead and, you know, finish the joke.

DG: Not sayin'.

Oh, c’mon…. you can’t just drop it like that.

DG whistling.

Waddaya want me to beg? Let’s go! What invention was more important than the first telephone?

DG: The second telephone.

Gak! I don’t believe that you actually tricked me into that.

Why I Make My Own Bagels

For the last two or three years I have been making my own bagels. It takes me about 3 1/2 hours to make a half dozen bagels, and they cost at least as much as the bagels you can buy in the store.

So, why on Earth would I make them?

Well, for a few weeks life was getting in the way of bagels, you know, cars break down, appliances break down… There just wasn’t time to make bagels.

So I bought some bagels from the supermarket to get by until I could get back to making my own.

Then, one Saturday I sliced open one of my supermarket “Cinnamon and Raisin” bagels and here is what I saw.

Your homework assignment is to count the raisins that you see in that bagel.

Done? I bet it didn’t take long. That’s a cinnamon flavored dinner roll.

Last week I finally found time to make some of my own bagels, and when I sliced one of them open on Saturday, here is what I saw.

I don’t think that I have to give you an assignment on this one. As they say in the song, “One of these things is not like the other.”

I won’t mention the brand of bagels that I found in the supermarket, but it rhymes with “promises”.

Truce

DG and I have decided to call a halt to the conflict about who is running this blog. We have decided that we will be co-contributors to the blog. Hence, we have signed a truce.

Truce signed by DG and Min E. Mowse
DG: That isn't even your signature. That's a cartoon character signature.

Well you signed it with a cartoon character signature. What’s good enough for you is good enough for me.

But, whatever, I aim to please, so here you go.

Truce, signed by DG and a squiggly line.
DG: That isn't your real signature either. That's just a jiggly line!

Ya, well this is the internet, and that’s a dangerous place to post such things, so that’s all you’re going to get. Deal with it.

Ya ya! Spoil sport.

DG: Poo.

DG frowning.

Thinking About It

DG: Why can't dinosaurs clap their hands?

Wait a minute. What’s this new trick?

You’re just thinking the dad jokes into the blog?

DG: Because they're extinct.

That’s not right. You can’t just think dad jokes into the blog!

DG: I'm a cartoon character. Anything can happen.

Still At It

DG is still going at it….

DG smirking: I just found out that I’m colorblind.
DG smirking: The news came right out of the purple!

Enough is enough.

DG gagged.

That ought to take care of it.

DG Won’t Give it Up

I shouted “Stop,” “Desist” and “Whoa”—
But DG, he would not let go. *

DG continues to “improve” this blog with his Dad jokes.

DG: What has five toes and isn't your foot?

I don’t know.

DG: My foot.

Yikes.

DG: What is green and has wheels?

I don’t know.

DG: Grass. I lied about the wheels.

Groan.

DG: I was playing chess with my friend and he said, “Let’s make this interesting.”

Yeah?

DG: So we stopped playing chess.

I don’t know how I am going to survive this. I hope it’s over soon.

*Sincere apologies to the late great Shel Silverstein for butchering his Yipiyuk.

DG Takes Over

DG has now taken over running this blog. Let’s see what he can do.

Hey, DG, what have you come up with?

DG smirking: What do you call a fake noodle?

Oh no. Come on! Dad jokes?

Noooo no no no. We are not doing Dad jokes.

DG frowning: I am in charge now. What do you call a fake noodle?

Sigh.

I don’t know. What do you call a fake noodle?

DG smirking: Impasta

Ahhhhh! That is so bad. Please stop.

DG smirking: Where to pirates get their hooks?

No no no no.

Can we just stop now?

DG frowning: Where do pirates get their hooks?

I don’t know. Where to pirates get their hooks?

DG smirking: Second hand stores.

Groan.

I think the hit counter just went down.
