    <description>&lt;P&gt;Okay. I will share a funny.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Last year i caught a mouse in the chicken's food bin.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; So i nabbed&amp;nbsp;him super fast and placed him into a small plastic fish tank.&amp;nbsp; Like those you get at Cheap As cHips ok.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I then placed the tank in the living room upon the fireplace mantel and just studied the little guy for a while. It was definitely a male and very panicky.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I think he was waiting for something really bad to happen because it wouldn't stay still.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So i just moved away from the tank and left the lounge and came back with the Dyson.&amp;nbsp; Yeah. I wasn't going to hurt the little fellow. I just vacuumed and done all the usual house work. I was waiting for him to calm down.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So anyway.&amp;nbsp;I sat down here and typed some. Then got up and took some photos of him with my mobile (because i like action photography involving creatures).&amp;nbsp; I sent these to my partner at work and to my brother in Melb&amp;nbsp;who didn't understand what was going on and sent back a ??? text.&amp;nbsp; Then i decided it was&amp;nbsp;time to say goodbye because it made a mess and i didn't like looking at&amp;nbsp;him anymore so i took&amp;nbsp;him for a little&amp;nbsp;drive until i found a good spot in the scrub and i released him because i forgave him.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The End :&amp;nbsp; )&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'll kick it off.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;THE BLACK WIDOW&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;The male black widow spider&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;tried all his life&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;he tried to tickle the hairy legs&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;of his larger black widow wife&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;Suddenly he had a win&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;something at last to gloat&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;she began to laugh aloud&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;as his leg slid down her throat&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;Poor male black widow&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;was always to get into strife&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;all because he couldn't understand&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: Thread-000026a0-Id-00000056;"&gt;-the nature of his hairy wife......&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;A curious child asked her mother "why are some of your hair grey"?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Her mother replied "that's because of you dear, all the trouble you've caused me"&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;"Oh" said the child.....now I know why grandma has grey hair all over".....&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Still in bed after a bad night rest,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I got up the courage to say, "I'm depressed".&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Aha!", she said with a wink and a nod.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"You need a good hot iron for your bod".&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;I shook my head and cleared out my ear.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Surely, I misheard you my dear?"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Oh no", she said, "you heard me just fine.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;You wait here while I fetch the iron".&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"For what?", I said in a bit of a fright.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;An iron will not help put my sadness right".&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Sad?", she said as she straightened her dress.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;"I thought you said that you were depressed".&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"I did!", I said my head all muddle.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;By now I was feeling in need of a cuddle.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Well, I'll get you sorted as quickly as 1,2,3.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;In no time at all you'll be wrinkle-free!"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Wrinkles!", I exclaim as the penny &amp;nbsp;drops.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"You think you can fix me by ironing my top!?"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;"Well that's not quite what I meant dear love of my life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: inherit;"&gt;But I sure am greatful that you are my wife".&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;CHOOKA CHOOK&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Chooka Chook had an angry look&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;as she washed her dishes dry&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Her friend Pecky the hen...was taken away to be fried&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;And Rooty Rooster came to pass and saw Chooka sad&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Her said "Don't be sad, be glad...you haven't been cooked, nor baked nor fried till your skin is black&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Unlike Daffy duck, who got cooked till he couldn't quack&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Chooka Chook no longer sooked, &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;she did her dishes fast&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;She never cried while she had her hide&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;she lived each day as her last.....&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It was 1975 and I was an airman in the Air Force. I had been nabbed drink driving and so bought a pushbike to get me around the large airforce base. This bike even had a speedometer.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The second day I had the bike I rode it up a road with the sun in my eyes. I stared at the speedo as it edged 30mph (50kph) the fastest I could possibly pedal. Then wham&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I woke up in hospital with the biggest headache. I'd apparently ridden straight into the rear of a large furniture van parked on the side of the road.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Feeling sorry for myself I noticed one of my friends in a bed opposite. I told him I was in a lot of pain. My friend looked at me and said "you think you've got troubles"......he then threw off his bedsheet to expose the biggest pair of mangoes I'd ever seen.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;My friend had the mumps. I never felt sorry for myself for quite a while.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Hi All, &lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;I&amp;nbsp;put pen to paper and came up with the following;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Once upon a time&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In a land far away&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or was it only yesterday&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In a land close by?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I don't recall if it was today&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or if it was close by or far away!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Now where was I heading?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What was I doing?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Ah! I was about to tell you a story&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;About a land far away&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or was it a land close by!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Oh dear! I have totally forgotten!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;By Mrs. Dools&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;HAHAHAHA&amp;nbsp; : D&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Well this happened last night.&amp;nbsp; I wrote a cryptic note and while partner slept I carefully buried it within his rolled up hard yakka socks he laid out for the morning.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So he woke me up at 4.30am holding the note and&amp;nbsp;read it out&amp;nbsp;'POP WEASEL'.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; And&amp;nbsp;he grinned and called me a unit before kissing my face all over with sloppy nana kisses.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Well I thought that was just mega funny&amp;nbsp;: D &amp;nbsp; I have been&amp;nbsp;drunk happy since and I don't even drink. I like hiding little notes in his clothing and steelcaps.&amp;nbsp; It's my way of working the romance.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Just saw this thread from years ago and was wondering if we can start it up again.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;this is just something a child said to me. That funny and silly are the samething. Maybe for preschoolers they are as they found many things funny and silly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;For adults I think comedians and anothers can be funny but not silly and people can be silly and not funny.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I like to wear silly hats and dress ups but i dint think I am funny but being child like and silly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I wonder what others think?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello Quirky. I have to admit I find silly and funny to often be the same thing. I have a sense of the ridiculous. But not everyone does. A lot of people are into stand up comedy. I find that sometimes funny but quite often not that funny. But something absurd and ridiculous will make me laugh a lot. I probably prefer comedy sketches over stand up comedy. I like the incorporation of visual humour too. I do find Denise Scott quite funny doing stand up though. I think that’s because a sense of the ridiculous is often part of her routine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It’s true that kids often see silly as funny. I quite like the Spike Milligan poem:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Today I saw a little worm wriggling on his belly.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Perhaps he’d like to come inside and see what’s on the telly!&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I will then visualise this worm wriggling inside and making himself at home on a beanbag, cushion or sofa to watch tv. This reminds me of a program I saw once of a family who had a pet sheep who liked to come in and watch tv with them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I agree Quirky, the ridiculous is sanity-preserving!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
