Today's Question(s): Today's questions were inspired by hubby, who, when I told him today is World Porridge Day, said, "sounds grueling."
First, I'll throw out a few puns... A man stole a calendar and got twelve months. A bicycle can't stand alone; it's two-tired. When she saw her first gray hairs, she thought she'd dye. Now I'll ask, what are a few of your favorite puns?
Just for Fun: What word do you like to say simply because it sounds silly?

I can be pretty silly at times but not one silly word comes to mind. I do call my dog...Pug a lug.
I have never defenestrated anybody...but I have thrown some things out the window. I once helped a friend take out sheetrock in her bedroom. It was easier to throw it out the window and clean it up later
I have been carpenoited a time or two when I was young and silly.
I have used a biffy before and I hate the smelly things

World Mental Health Day *tee hee* I like being slightly crazy. World Porridge Day Peas porridge hot. Peas porridge cold. Peas porridge in the pot, nine days old.
