Monday Night Funnies

Your occasional contributions to the hot new runaway weekly hit series ‘Monday Night Funnies’ are greatly appreciated. If it made you giggle with glee then chances are that it will allow someone else to turn that frown upside down as well.  Simply send your ‘G’ or ‘PG’-rated contributions to my personal E-M address. If you don’t know what my personal E-M address is then chances are that I don’t wish to receive E-M from you !

This week my brother in Texas provides the ‘Funny’. He’s a HUGE ice hockey fan (and former player). He sent me this hilarious montage of Randy Moller goal calls. Randy played in the NHL for about 13 seasons during the 1980s and into the 1990s. Nowadays he’s the play-by-play announcer for the Florida Panthers on South Florida’s Sports Talk 790 AM ‘The Ticket’.

HILARIOUS STUFF !

Be sure to catch more ‘Funnies’ next Monday night. Same blog channel.

Until we chuckle again – REMEMBER THIS !

The Major’s Friday Night Disco Party

Disco Ball

Last week at the ‘Disco Party’ I featured Tavares with their Bicentennial (Summer Of 1976) hit from up above – “Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel”. It’s 1 of about 20 TOP 40 hits since the rock era began (in the 1950s) that start with that very special word “Heaven”. You may also remember “Heaven” from Bryan Adams (and also DJ Sammy, Los Lonely Boys, and Warrant) – or how about Belinda Carlisle‘s # 1 smash from 1987 – “Heaven Is A Place On Earth”. There’s also Donna Summer‘s TOP 5 Disco smash “Heaven Knows”.

But this week I’ve got a Pointer Sister who branched out on her own during the late-1970s. She’s Bonnie Pointer, and she scored an incredible feat late in 1979. You see Disco allegedly died on a hot July night in 1979 at a Chicago White Sox baseball game. But a few leftover Disco songs on the charts never got the memo – including this one. Here’s Bonnie Pointer with “Heaven Must Have Sent You” – a TOP 15 Disco smash from the Autumn Of 1979 – several months after Disco allegedly died at Comiskey Park.

Monday Night Funnies

Are you ready to laugh ?

USAF HUMOR – F-16 VS. C-130

A C-130 was lumbering along when a cocky F-16 flashed by. The jet jockey decided to show off.

The fighter jock told the C-130 pilot, ‘Watch this !’, and promptly went into a barrel roll followed by a steep climb. He then finished with a sonic boom as he broke the sound barrier. The F-16 pilot asked the C-130 pilot what he thought of that ?

The C-130 pilot said, ‘That was impressive, but watch this !’

The C-130 droned along for about 5 minutes, and then the C-130 pilot
came back on and said, ‘What did you think of that ?’

Puzzled, the F-16 pilot asked, ‘What the heck did you do ?’

The C-130 pilot chuckled, ‘I stood up, stretched my legs, walked to the back, went to the bathroom, then got a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun.’

When you are young and foolish – speed and flash may be a good thing.
When you get older and smarter – comfort and dull is not such a bad thing.

Thursday Night Mini Thoughts

– So just because it’s Thanksgiving does NOT mean I don’t have some thoughts.
– Today of all Thursdays I have a special assortment of ‘Mini Thoughts’.

– Did you expect anything different on this mother of all food days ?
– This morning we went to see “Old Dogs” at a local area movie theatre.

– But I did laugh quite a bit all throughout the flick.
– It won’t win any Oscars, but it was still funny.
