Brevity by Dan Thompson for September 26, 2023

Might make the cows sick.

Drove past a Jeep with big tires with a young friend of mine, around 14, and just getting into cars. He said, “Look at the mudders on that Jeep.” He then explained to me, boomer that I am, a mudder is a big fat tire. I told him not to speak that way about his mudder, or I am going to tell his fodder on him. I could see the smile in spite of the eye roll.

Yep and there he is. There’s Calvin.

Last year it was reported just 3 Kmart stores remain open in the US.

I like bluegrass.

for those of us who remember the K-Mart Blue Light special… or where Calvin came from according to ‘dad’

Next to the other hay, it bales in comparison.

I’m here just to see how many readers don’t understand the punch line.

Hello mudder, Hello fodder, here I am at……..

Old MacDonald had a problem.e i e i o

Just like with Mister Pastis, you can sometimes tell when Mister Thompson is about to do a horrid pun by the build up.

lucky thing it wasn’t indigo girls on the fodder…

GROAN

I think you are getting into a “gray area” of color humor.

Cutting corners, Farmer Jones?

is it rye? a dark mold on rye could be ergot, could be an issue.
