Banana Waits To Die

BANANA WAITS TO DIE

I’m one banana lying prone

I got forgot. I’m all alone

How did this happen? Why just me?

I started life with twenty three

All alone I lie and wait

What will be my final fate?

Why do I ask, I really know

I saw it happen to Old Joe

The top banana in my bunch

Selected for a sailor’s lunch

On the ship from Panama

“OH MY GOD,” screamed Grandmamma

“The sailor just set Joey down!”

The thought of it just makes me frown

Sitting in the hot sun light

A few days passed he died of blight

Once brightly yellow then to black

Once stiff and hardy then to slack

His innards oozed, the sight was sad

It made my bunch so very mad

Now it’s me here all alone

One banana with no phone

I feel as if up in the sky

There is one really creepy eye

Looking down upon me here

This is what I really fear

I know it gets some freaky joy

It watches me as if a toy

I also feel the eye is pissed

Because it’s me that someone missed

Someone laid me here to take

“Who the fuck made this mistake?”

I know that’s what the eye would say

Someone surely has to pay

Who will clean my gooey mess?

That’s the sky eye’s greatest stress

Hey sky eye, I know you are there

Count your blessing I’m not a pear

All other fruits are such a bore

Your Facebook friends would surely snore

Share a picture everyday

Two or Three, see what they say

Over time I to will die

Right before your creepy eye

I’m sure that you will soon return

And then beware I’ll take my turn

For all who watch bananas die

Through your creepy secret eye

In your nose you’ll smell my essence

In your heart you’ll feel my presence

Goals Are For Losers. Happy New Year

I've got some doodles, but been really busy, gave my scanning printer to my wife who has her office on another floor of the house. So it hasn't been convenient to get anything scanned in to up load. I did these scans and forgot to do them at gray scale rather than b/w. So they are a bit sketchy, but I just don't have the motivation to go re-scan them. If you are older than 40 most likely you've seen the Bugs Bunny cartoons with the martian that keeps trying to blow up Earth, then you get this reference. If you've ever read Scott Adams', Dilbert creator and cartoonist, book "How To Fail At Almost Everything and Still Win Big" then you will get this reference about goals are for losers. I'm toying around with giving Earl a different nose. The thought came to me because I have a greeting card for sale on Boon Greeting Cards , that is a top seller during Valentine's Day season where the guy looks similar to Earl but has a different nose.

Exercising Obsessed Mom Can't Handle The Truth

One of my Facebook "friends" started posting her daily workout status. She established earlier on that she was going to challenge herself to do some workout every day for 30 days in a row. The entire month of November. I followed these post and noticed there were some who would comment the expected comments, "way to go", "keep it up", "whew, you are making me tired"...all well deserved, but no one was giving her the kind of comments that might inspire her to push harder, like: "is that all you got?", "hmm, only 10 miles", "come on get back in the gym and off FB!" There did come a day when she posted she was not able to workout due to some conflict. And still no real comments to motivate her. This post got me to thinking, what was the intent behind her post? Was it to keep herself on track. Was it to publicly "brag" or "show off" (felt that was unlikely). Was it hoped to receive some accou...

One Girl Walking 2185 Miles in 111 Days, ALONE

hiker alone accept the sounds of the dark woods. Boon, Cartoons, cartoonist for hire, boondawgoggle, doodles, One Guy Drawing It is without a doubt my long held aspiration to thru hike the AT (Appalachian Trail). I wanted to share this one Thru Hiker's Blog. This young lady, trail name Wired, just finished her 2185 mile hike yesterday after 111 days on the trail. She updated a blog daily with wit, candor, and pictures sharing her day to day trials, tribulations (like her monthly periods) and triumphs along with the characters and players that make an AT thru hike an unique experience. Yesterday's completion of the AT makes her a triple crown long hiker having previously completed the CDT (Continental Divide Trail) and PCT (Pacific Coast Trail). I encourage you to start at Day One and make reading her blog the daily start to your day for the next 111 days.
