Musk oxen are wandering into the city on the Seward Peninsula, and despite loud noises, water hoses and even a blow-up bear coated in ursine urine, they don't want to leave.

because they were sore afraid.But only when they spoke King Jimmyese, they were probably fine as long as they stuck with Aramaic...
So the solution is to learn Aramaic, and you will no longer be sore...

I’m not planning to learn Aramaic.
I was never good at chemistry.

I wait longer than you do for your little gems of twisted humor. (AKA: Puns)
But that’s just the kind of guy I am... ;o]

Punsters were never
really popular.
But can you imagine that they actually had a Punic War?

In MY family, punsters were the majority. You either learned to understand them and later, to concoct them, or you were banished to Normalberg.
I love puns...and yes, we’ve had several Punic Wars!

*groan*
That’s regarding the humor, not the back. It’s not too bad right now. I’ll have some ibuprofen before before bed, and some wine, too. And probably Jake. He’s here being friendly at me, hoping I’ll let him out.
It’s about to be some children’s bedtime.

Did I say that? I meant hearing aids.
We’re still more into cooling aids.
The low here is in the 60’ s

"Met a wee doggy on thursdak that wanted to watch the storm." It occurred to me that there is only one day of the week that does not end in "y".

... tomorrow.

Years ago when I was “camping out” with my late fiancé, my ditzy SiL asked me if we ever had sex. I said, “Only on days that end in ‘Y’.” We could all see her, mentally naming off the days...and then, in a rather astonished voice, “But...they ALL do!”
Yah, like that. Funny stuff!
