Sisyphus: A Symbol For Our Times



Sisyphus? Not heard that name in a long time.

Life CAN seem pretty Sisyphean,
both at HOME . . . 




Question: WHAT is this tp holder...

Answer: Pissyphus



. . . and at WORK.

  4. There are times when I realize that the challenges I spent 25 years fighting, are still there and wonder "WHY!"

  7. 👏💪 I love the modern Sisyphus using drone technology, but I hope his mountain isn't in New Jersey...those paranoids will try to shoot down his drone and he'll be back at the beginning...again!! 🤪

  9. Sisyfitness would definitely catch on. Virtual classes would be on YouTube. Everyone would be talking about it all over social media. Can't a guy just be allowed to push a rock up a hill in peace and quiet anymore?

    Love,

    1. @ Rawknrobyn -- No problemo. "JJ" actually brings a fond memory back to me. In our home province, there was a restaurant called "JJ's" and my sister always said it stood for "Jism Jim's." It never failed to get a laugh out of me!

  20. Haha. Your sis has a good sense of humor too. Thank you. You and this JJ (Janie Junebug) also have a similarly silly and clever wit. I'd just visited her blog, or was about to, and thus the mix up. From now on, the JJ initials will make me snort. I'm appreciative.

  22. It could have been worse. It could have been a ball of shit like a dung beetle.

  23. My general feeling these days. Oh and Camus made Sisyphus trendy again.

  24. May I be known as Jism Jim's now?

    1. @ Janie Junebug -- If you so desire, LOL! But "Janie Junebug" is a MUCH more appetizing name, I think.

  25. Sounds familiar to me because most of us feel the same way in day to day life.only difference is that curse comes from our own uncontrollable wishes that make us push the rock till forever sadly
