Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for February 19, 2010

All mechanics, no humans aboard?

There goes your supper guys.

Broomie’s broom is not repairable? Couldn’t they just grab a mechanical hand to get aboard?

They’d have to climb the tree and act like coconuts!

Quick, start making sounds like a coconut.

It wouldn’t pick them anyway. One nut is still green. The other’s so moldy it already grows a fur.

But they are nuts.

Where’s Gilligan and the rest.

She crashed her broom?

Is that Keith Richards climbing that tree?

What a “maroon.”

And you had such a lovely bunch of coconuts, Broomie.

Act like a nut, act like a nut. Act naturally.

Coconuts make sounds?

are they in the middle of the coffee ocean from adam@home

With no men aboard she’s got her best chance of being picked up. She’s no Mary Ann.

Coconuts sound like horses’ hooves.

Maybe Broomie was migrating.

Didn’t you hear? Ace is the place for cononut-picking hardware.

After riding the ship back to civilization, Irwin told people how glad he was to be off the island; “Broomie was starting to look good to me!”

Maybe they could send a message back with an African Swallow hauling a coconut for Monty Python’s next skit.

Put the lime in the coconut, drink them both together Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better

But taften, African Swallows are non-migratory! You have to know these things, if you ever want to be King.

Irwin should simply climb on Broomie and they can float home. After all, she’s made of wood, and only weighs the same as a duck.

(Well, she’s got a wart…)
