***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***

Festival of Smoke and Mirrors Day

When : Always March 29th

Smoke and Mirrors Day is a day of illusions. The term "smoke and mirrors" means something is not really as it appears to be. People often put up smoke and mirrors to hide something.

This day is also referred to as the Festival of Smoke and Mirrors. We did not discover an actual festival of this nature. But, who needs historical facts to have fun an a special day? Let's get out and enjoy Smoke and Mirrors Day to the fullest.






A large jet plane crashed on a farm in the middle of rural Kentucky. Panic stricken, the local sheriff mobilized and descended on the farm in force. By the time they got there, the aircraft was totally destroyed with only a burned hull left smoldering in a tree line that bordered the farm.

The sheriff and his men entered the smoking mess but could find no remains of anyone. They spotted the farmer plowing a field not too far away as if nothing had happened. They hurried over to the man's tractor.

"Hank," the sheriff yelled, panting and out of breath. "Did you see this terrible accident happen?" "Yep. Sure did," the farmer mumbled unconcerned, cutting off the tractor's engine. "Do you realize that is Air Force One, the airplane of the President of the United States?"

"Yep." "Were there any survivors?" "Nope. They's all kilt straight out," the farmer answered. "I done buried them all myself. Took me most of the morning."

"President Obama is dead?" the sheriff asked Well," the farmer
grumbled, restarting his tractor."He kept a-saying he wasn't...

But you know how bad that sumbitch lies...*

Ain’t gonna happen. I checked mine and any guy who would feel comfortable using that name would also probably feel right at home in a sequined lavender jumpsuit.

If they have cute legs, who cares about their silly hats? :)

Hang on, hang on, hang on. OK, this one might not be wearing a hat.

An old Spike Jones song......

My arithmetic is getting bad.
I don’t know what to do.
I bought a little bunny
then I bought another bunny.
Don’t one and one make two?

Now when I’m looking at the bunnies.
I get as mad as mad as I can be
Cause now there are so many bunnies
Oh me oh my,
You wanna buy a bunny?

When I’m eating bread and honey
Those silly little bunnies pester me
Cause all the bunnies beg for honey
Oh gee oh gosh
Do you wanna buy a bunny?

When we’re playing hide and seek
At my heels the sneek sneek sneek
When I hide they peek peek peek
I get so mad I could shreik EEK.

If you want a fuzzy bunny
Thats got a wiggly nose and cotton tail.
I wish that you would buy a bunny
Cause I got lots of bunnies for sale.

And when I get up early in the morning to go out to the chicken house to feed my little tiny baby chickens
oh those crazy little bunnies they follow on after me just hop hop hop hop hop hop hopping like the dickens.

Here chickee chickee chickee chickee get away from me bunny you bother me. Get out of here you crazy little bunnies.

And when I sneak my little tiny puppy dog rover upstairs with me to bed. The bed is full of them silly little bunnies from the foot up to the head. Get out of my bed you bad little bunnies. Go on bunnies get out of here go on now.

Bunnies bunnies bunnies bunnies everywhere. There’s bunnies on the table and there’s bunnies on the chair. Bunnies on the sofa and there’s bunnies on the floor. And there’s some new ones coming through the door. More.

Please come on and buy a bunny. I even like to sell you two or three. But if you don’t have any money, I’ll give you a bunny cause theres just too darn many bunnies for me. There’s bunnies all over the place, bunnies under my feet, bunnies in my bed everywhere I go there’s cute little bunnies.
