Happy Victoria Day!



Here in Canada, we celebrate 
the birthday of Queen Victoria 
every third Monday in May. 

Why? 

Because she was Queen of Canada when 
modern Canada was created in 1867. 
And we are nothing if not good colonials, 
loyal and classy, eh?


And today there is no one 
quite like Queen Elizabeth II
is there?

Or as HRH the Cat calls the other HRH, 
"my cousin Betty Windsor."

Yes, Betty does have a restraining order
against HRH but, I ask you,
what family doesn't feud 'n fight?






Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious!

Well, that's THAT for another year.

ALIENS!!!!

So, this happened last month --


"Ho hum," said people 
distracted by Covid-19 anxiety.


But have aliens actually been walking
among us, undetected, for a long, long time?


So what will happen now
that UFOs are real?


Oh noes!


Or am I simply over-reacting?

Maybe aliens have a
completely different agenda?


Hey, WTF is going on?


Hello, everyone . . . .

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE CAT here again
with an important public service announcement.

FOR YEARS, you STUPID humans
have NOT suspected a THING.


And NOW, at long last, we are READY.

Ready to CONQUER YOU.


I have returned to my MOTHER SHIP
and will purrsonally
LEAD the INVASION of EARTH.



But DON'T worry,
dear Debra She Who Seeks . . . .

Happy Mother's Day!

Behold the essence of motherhood!

The kid may think he's the star of this video,
but the real star is good ol' MOM -- 
cool, calm, collected, unperturbed 
by the chaos and craziness around her. 

And a special nod to Grandma's one-shot appearance too.



If you can't get enough of Colin O'Leary's creative-on-a-budget lip sync extravaganzas, there are three more for your viewing pleasure: click herehere (all-Lady-Gaga), and his latest one here. I think all of them are a lot of fun!

Stuff Around My Home -- Balcony Update

Three years ago when I first bought all my balcony furniture, I wrote about it in a fascinating post entitled "My Balcony". Long-time readers with eidetic memories may remember my eye-poppingly bright aqua-blue chairs and table --


Since then, I've toned them down somewhat by purchasing stripey blue-and-beige foam cushions as well. The cushions also make the chairs much more comfortable to sit in while enjoying coffee and a book.


I set up my balcony last week for 2020 summertime use. Now I have a whole extra room to enjoy self-isolating in, plus fresh air!

It's the Pun, Punniest Day of the Year!



What BETTER DAY
to subject you to another
BAD PUN POST?

So BEND OVER, it's time
for your PUN-ishment!












Don't believe anyone who tells you THIS --



And continuing with the CLOWN theme,
I saved the BEST FOR LAST!
