Jerry Lewis Goat


Okay girls, I'm watching an episode of Bonnie Hunt while prepping for a class and she showed this clip of a goat that sounds like Jerry Lewis. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwy1qGdQ424 What a crack up! The goat is hysterical but equally as funny is the poor girl trying to feed the goat. This is typical of anyone trying to record anything funny happening to me. The star of the video is often upstaged by my laughter. You either hate it or can't help laughing with me. Anyway I hope get a giggle out of this as I did.
She also had a clip from the news of a couple of elderly ladies that tied themselves to a crab apple tree to save it from being cut down. It was pretty funny but I couldn't find that clip. They planted themselves in front of the tree on a couple of plastic chairs and draped a small rope across themselves tying the end of the rope to the arm of the chair in a loose single knot. Too funny. She actually chatted with one of the ladies on the phone. They had saved the tree until October when they would revisit the issue. If they had to do it again, she told Bonnie, "There's always bigger ropes."
I just love Bonnie and this show. Never fails to give me a smile!

The other day I was watching an episode of the Bonnie Hunt show---I've mentioned before that I just love her. Well, she had Paula Deen on the show and they were talking about her story and about a book she had written about her life. Something about her story touched me so I ordered her book on half.com. The story grabbed me immediately from the foreword. I related so much to a lot of her story. I haven't finished the book yet, but it has already given me a huge respect for the woman behind the great southern cook. I wish I had her drive. I could do anything! Anyway, her story gives me hope that a life begun late can still be a life well worth the living and makes me believe that unexpected wonderful things could pop up for me just around any corner.
