Frosty Fridays

Margie: Edna, do you remember when Daddy told us we should always plan ahead? If our power went out right now we'd be fine even though it's cold. I even heard the weatherman say something about snow.

Valentine's Day is coming soon and that makes me think about warm things like roses, chocolate, and hot tubs. Do you think I should add a warm body to my wish list? I wish Valentine's Day was here already because I'm cold.

Edna:  Margie, even in the face of bitter winter cold, do you still have to think like a floozy?  That's not what Daddy meant about planning ahead, and you know it!

But if you're wishing for a warm body, make sure he brings in enough wood to keep the stove going for at least a week.  That fire isn't going to feed itself.

Margie: Edna, you should probably plan on going somewhere warm that week. Maybe you could go see the Biddy's.

Or would you like for me to find you a warm body? You'll sure never get one on your own.

Edna:  Margie, I've got a warm body part right here you can kiss, so pucker up!

Icercise

Cousin T: I came as quick as I could Miss Margie. Bobby Fink delivered your message to high tail it over here and bring my goo-lashes. But it hain’t rained in weeks - more likely to snow I’d say.

Margie: Slow down, Cousin T, and open your ears.
You know how folks make all these New Year's revolutions? Some say they want to diet or take a trip or whatever. You know?

Cousin T: Yeah, like for instance, mine is to quit having damn fool notions

Margie: Good. Here's my notion then. You take that hose of ours and go in the back yard and run water until the back fills up. That water should freeze real quick. We'll be ice skating in no time.Then we'll charge folks to come skate and tell them this is good exercise.

Cousin T: Them revolutions is over rated anyhow. Do you think I should cut the grass first so we get less of it sticking up through the ice?

Margie: Cousin T, you know I don't know a thing about yard work. Wait. Wouldn't a little grass sticking up be a pretty decoration?

You decide and I'll go make your fried apple pies.

Sunday Funnies

Margie: Here's a little project I'll be working on this week. Anyone else want to see if this really works?
