Book Humour. A Sideways Perspective on the Bonkers Business of Books
This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Mine has slipped down so far, it’s considered a knee pad these days…

Good thing I’m adept at sliding down and around poles. Got to get to the Batmobile quickly or Batman will leave without me. 😀

Normals aren’t welcome on these pages. They’re the ones that need to wear the masks to come in!

No kidding! There’s a scene where Dr. Frankenstein (Gene Wilder) sends Igor (Marty Feldman) to break into The Brain Repository to steal a brilliant scientist’s brain to put in the monster. Igor drops the jar with the ‘brilliant’ brain and takes one labeled ‘abnormal’. When Dr Frankenstein brings the monster to life and he’s crazed and violent, he asks Igor about the brain and Igor says, “it belonged to Abby someone. Abby Normal, yes, yes that was it!” Hilarious!

When you get to be “of a certain age” you can say or do what you want and people laugh fondly. No more need for masks. Something to look forward to.
