    I’m a Bord who’s never been on a wire, but I recently became a fan of wireless brassieres — do you think they’re connected?

    Hilarious as always, and you reminded me that I’ll sometimes type my name, but forget the “g” so it comes out “Mean.” Eek!

    Oh and sweet pants make my butt look funny, so I tend to avoid them. (smile)

    BETSY!! Life IS made up of slime, chocolate, Elmer’s goo and that gloppy sweet white stuff they put inside whoopie pies (not to be confused of course with whoopie cushion innards.) Thanks Betsy, but I bet you say these nice things to all the wild typo posters on the Net.

    ZEENAT!! To ponder our children growing up and away as they must just boggles the mind, does it not? I think I’m in luck, tho, as Kelly wants me to pick her husband for her because I did such a great job with her dad!! Ahhh, let’s hope she remembers that in 10 years, eh?? And I LOVE YOU TOO, thanks you for such a wonderful reminder of the greatest thing on Earth!!! Oh, and BB promises that YOU make yor dreems come troo YOURSELF — what a guy, eh, playing tricks again??

    HILARY!! Hello again, dear lady, your blog is getting near the top of my list to crash, so stay tuned (yes,I do try to keep a bit of an organized madness to my blog-visiting method.) Have you ever thought of writing your typos down for a post such as this one? Your mom sounds like a joyful person — and I bet you are too!! Blessings.

    GHABUNTU!! Hello again, my friend! Hey, is something phishy up here?? Yes, of course, the penis is always much much mightier than the sword, kings of old and all their concubines proved that again and again. :) That was the way to really conquer lands.

    LANCE!! Seems those sweet pants are the ones you have to dig out of your bottom drawer after all manner of holiday treats such as cake, cookies, pies and such. And what better sweet pants than sweats, for that expansion valve around the waste. I mean waist! Enjoy your beets! And don’t forget to eat the greens, goodly vitamins in those I hear.

    MEGAN!! Who is never ever and never ever could be mean. I think of you, of course each time I post one of these Bord posts. Is your surname French? Just strikes me that it could be. Oh, I got me one of those wireless brassieres too — great internet reception, especially at Starbucks, where I do get funny looks if I’ve left my volume up too high and “You’ve Got Mail” comes booming from my bosom. Does that ever happen to you???

    ROBIN!! Yes, completely consumed with immorality your blogging bliss has been left in the shadows. :) Tho I did enjoy your recent post. That miner guy has 3 chainsaws!! And boy , odes he know how to use them (He’s also a lumberjack, but that’s okay!)

    PATRICIA!! I think beet juice is very good for you. My grandmother used the water off the canned mushrooms in her pizza crust — is that weird?? And of course we all use our veggie water in gravies, right? Did you buy a REAL tree??

    VERED!! I always have tended to attract the weirdoes IRL, now it seems my blog is no different.

    NOW SNAG!! I hope that is one of those pastry bear claws?? The huge ones all glazed and melting in your mouth?? You serious about a cat named BLOB?? 109 years, a super-long life. I hope to see the same for Kit-Kat. He’s 3 now. And actually chasing a little bird around the house at this very minute. Let’s hope I don’t get to be Jannie Dumpster, the diver.

    LYNN!! Now that I’ve been living in Mongolia for 9 years I’ve come to know just how inventive and industrious the natives are. Some not only plant, frame and ship their own broccoli and deviled egg tray art, but do it while singing and dancing show tunes, Chicago mostly. Yep.

    FIREBLOSSOM!! i just bought a couple new pairs of the cozy sweet pants on eBay, rare finds let me tell ya. They are edible of course. Made of brownies, pumpkin pie and barley toys. Speaking of the latter, I must go online to see if i can gits me some of those this year. Really hard to find, but I just LOVE barley toys, don’t you??

    GHABUNTU!! Again, you drop by. How have you been since your last visit? Resting royally and happily over there wherever you are across an ocean or two?

    NADIA!! Each and every one of these typos was planned with you in mind. But I didn’t plan the choking part, that is entirely up to the universal forces. Perhaps I should’ve had a water choking disclaimer on these, and may well next time.

    Jannie,

    First, I like your snowflakes on the background! If I am not mistaken, those are a new addition? Is this simulated snow an attempt to embrace your Canadian roots? Have you chopped any firewood lately? Or cut any logs using a chainsaw? My wood stove is cranking as we speak. That wood shipment you sent me last year is long since gone, of course.

    I think I have been reading your blog too long. What on Earth do I mean by that? Well, when I looked at the picture at the top of your post, I immediately knew where your Funster brain was going. I just knew. When I got to the end of the post, I was thinking, “holy cow, I am really starting to ‘get’ how Jannie’s brain is wired”.

    I like #5, #13, #16, #17, and #18 the best.

    Your brain is uniquely wired, my funny friend. :)

    DAVINA!! I actually tweeted 2 days ago. Oh, and yesterday too, just amazing I’ve been so Twitterfied of late. And I swear to God, I did not make that penis one up for grins, I actually had left out the space. Anyhoo… :)

    JEANNE!! Yep, indeed, those snowflakes are a recent addition to this humble abode. ‘Tis the season. Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. I did chop some firewood lately — yes, 10 cords this weekend, all by myself in between blogging and drinking beer. Uniquely wired — and weird, that’s me whoo hoo! :)

    SUZEN!! If only my brane, and brain could publish a new fun post a day. Alas, I am only one Jannie and prone to real life things too. And Suzen, they’ve never let me off my meds, danger to society and all. Of course, I havne’t taken a chainsaw to anyone in YEARS, but the courts are kind of sticky on that point. Go figure. :)

    CINDERKEYS!! I know! I know, about those reados, I should start writing mine down. I have seen that men with pens site, in an ad I think. Ahh, so you read it as Men with Ipens, cool! :)

    WEYRD1 !! you’re back! (Obviously) Or else I’d be writing this comment to the air, or the many layers of my wild imagination. Did you really take a cruise lately? A wine one? Is Meredith Baxter (Birney?) still all blonde and cute? :)

    J.D.!! As always, you think of and voice the funniest things. The cozy sweet pants and Life Is Goo t-shirt might be a good costume to wear to face all those e-mauls. :)

    And I’m off, it’s Monday, and a school day. The child awaits.

    Fireblossom is bang on, life is goo, then we passionate one smear it all over ourselves. “Seize the Goo!” “Carpe Gooum!” That miner dude had a small part in DELIVERANCE surely; what a stare. Lance’s Cola Mine does not compete with Jannie’s Pepsi Pit. Mongolian broccoli framers also do rice paintings and bitchin rugs they say. Beets and donuts sounds yummy….eeeeewwwww. I love salted nits mineself, or crispy nits hey. Man who stand on corner with hands in pockets, not crazy, just playing with nits.
    I love to blobb, mostly though with several pints of Ben & Jerry’s. Cut kids are an industry in themselves, just ask Johnson & Johnson. My nag on my head was my first wife. I had her removed in court. My wife has several pairs of sweet pants. She calls them fun pants; not anything like the edible underwear I bought her at Victoria’s place. Where are the links to those immoral blogs? Just curious. Asking for a friend. Fur candles burn very hot. One must be careful to keep the goo handy to snuff them out.

    Yes, what is a Monday with bords on the wire….dull, baby! But here in Funsterville, no such problems.

    Tess, so glad you did not miss number 20! What a complete shell your life would’ve turned into. Just to think of it, my one and only bold Tess wandering the planet for the rest of her days never knowing of the great penis typo. THANK YOU, NADIA!!

    DOT!! Really???? EXTRA funny, whoo-hoo. I thought most of these they pretty-much sucked raw eggs, but I’d put them up anyway ’cause I have to muddle through. Just goes to show, one Jan’s trash is another Jan’s treasure, so to speak and meant in the nicest of wonderful ways to you and all other beings forever, of course.

    HEY GLENN!! Who’s supposed to be the comedian here? Well, you of course, cause I’m a comedienne. Or something. Canadienne too. That’s the correct French spelling. And yuck!!!! I had to open that can of nits, didn’t I? No one to blame but myself for your ensuing grossitude on those. Links to the immoral blogs?? I’m hogging all to mesilf.

    And are those penis ads or adds??? BIG difference there, depending on how you look at those. :)

    SARA!! You nimble-minded little minx, you! Those wheels just never stop a-whirling in your cute little noggin, do they?? I suggest YOU start that on your blog ASAP as I’m kind of into the beets and beers here pretty heavy lately. But seriously… could somebody please tell Outlook Express that yes blog, blogging and bloggers are ALL BONA FIDE WORDS!!?!? Ah, feeling much better on that now. Thanks, Sara.

    MAMA ZEN… I’d suggest a few immorality blogs, but I wouldn’t want to offend some of my more puritanical peeps,which comprise at least 0.078% of my total readership. But… let’s just suggest you Google these 3… Goats And Girls, Llamas In Lingerie and Thunder Thongs. (Just don’t let on I sent ya.)

    THOMMA LYN!! You are typing!! With your hands, I assume?? Yay, you are healed, Cured! Whoo-hoo… You know that song coal miners song, yes the singing coal miners. “Dark as a dungeon way down in the mine…” that song? I tried to find it for this post, but no go. Boo hoo. Still, I seem to have made you smile and that, my buddy, makes me smile.

    NOW SAMI!!! We gals know we can get a penis any old time we want. Oh yeah, as long as we’ve got our girl parts we can… well I think probably catch where I’m going with this? (I’m a little bit, well a lot, naughty, did I ever mention that?) Actually, it’s our brains and hearts men really want from us, as they should. Love is good.

    GHABUNTU!! It is a shame my posts went and retired, but they had negotiated a good severance package from me — complete with gold watch, send-off party and everything, so what could I do??? I had to let them move on. :)

    PAIGE!! PAIGE!! (So nice, so nice, I had to say it twice.) What??!! The Four Seasons has let their immaculate Internet service slide!? WHAT!!!???? I’m calling the manager! I’m calling the Governor!! I’m getting some hot water and disinfectant!!! I curse the cursed curse that stole your cursor’s right to function in this modern societal soup.

    koo-koo-ka-choo!

    whoo-hoo.

    Bonjour Jannie,

    Well, hello again… you ex-Canadienne! Aha! I thought those snowflakes were new. Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la indeed. ‘Tis the season you said. So what are you saying? ‘Tis the season to be flaky? Well, Jannie… one could argue that you don’t wait for a particular season to occur before getting a bit flaky. In fact, I could get used to those pretty flakes as a year-round symbol of Funster Flakiness.

    C’mon. You only chopped 10 cords of wood? Well, that’s disappointing from an expert lumberjack like you. Why not 11 cords? Was it hand-split, as per our previous discussions last winter? So you only did 10 cords…

    Were you out drinking butter beers with Blue Bunny? (By the way, could you please try to get BB to comment on my blog at times when butter beer has NOT been recently consumed?)

    So, tell me… HOW are you getting butter beers? Is Blue Bunny able to apparate to Hogsmeade?!? Seriously, inquiring minds want to know.

    If BB knows how to apparate, I’d like to sign up for lessons. I am of age for apparition. I passed 17 a longggg time ago.

    As I told BB (over on my blog), I would love to have the ability to simply apparate to my doctor’s appointments. It would save needless commuting. Just think of all the gas money I could save. Plus, it would be healthier for the Earth not to use all those fossil fuels.

    If BB truly possesses the ability to apparate, I highly recommend you give him/her a raise because that is a very valuable skill indeed!!

    You know, Jannie… if you had skipped the blogging and drinking for just one weekend, I daresay you could have split 20 cords of wood easily.

    Yes, I think all would agree that “uniquely wired” and “weird” are both applicable. In the best possible sense, of course.

    Now, Jannie… WHEN will you read the Harry Potter series because we could have so much fun passing the butter beer and apparition references and covering so much more territory! I’ll let you think on it.

    In the meantime, I have asked Blue Bunny twice now on my blog comments why he/she is using your wise eye avatar when commenting. I distinctly remember seeing a Blue Bunny avatar on a comment on Alicia’s ‘Yaya Stuff’ blog. Yet, BB persists in commenting with your wise eye on my blog.

    I am mystified & was hoping you might be able to clear that up for me.

    Merci!

    Hmmm. Sounds to me like the Funster has an imposter called the Bunster. Does she know how hard it is to shake a clone? Must be even more difficult with a butter beer drinking, shopaholic clone.

    PS Jeanne insert link to one of your relevant previous posts…I’m sure you’ll find something that will help.

    Jannie, Blue Bunny, Blue Bunnie, and Gyan,

    First things first. Jannie, do you have 2 virtual assistants? I have comments on my blog from both Blue Bunnie and Blue Bunny. Are they one and the same? Or have you hired more help using all of that moo-la you are raking in from the white hot sales of your CDs?

    Gyan, I am happy to see you here. I can see how it would be hard for you to resist responding to Blue Bunny(ie) [??] because those comments he/she left on my blog were hilarious, weren’t they?

    Yeah, Gyan, a combo of Funster and Blue Bunny(ie) could be “Funster Bunster”. You’re absolutely right.

    Hmm. You think Blue Bunny(ie) isn’t really a virtual assistant but an impostor posing as one? Yikes. That would be terrible. Let’s hope Blue Bunny(ie) is the real deal.

    Yes, Jannie knows how hard it is to shake a clone because she heard the nitty gritty, nasty, behind-the-scenes details of my experience having a Twitter impostor posing as me for 27 days until my badgering of Twitter FINALLY resulted in the “clone” account being shut down.

    I believe Funster Management’s screening/hiring process would have caught an impostor. I honestly think all of this Blue Bunny(ie) reckless abandon is tied to that excess consumption of butter beer.

    SHHH… Gyan, please don’t call Blue Bunny(ie) a shopaholic. This could prompt Jannie to cut BB’s funding off! Then, the massive, record-breaking Amazon order Blue Bunny(ie) has been promising won’t happen… and I won’t get that referral fee I have worked so hard for. So, shhhh, Gyan!!

    As far as links are concerned, Gyan, I am not at all worried because both Jannie and Blue Bunny(ie) seem to be finding the relevant links with great ease. I have actually lost count of how many comments they have made… but the number is significant!!

    I hope I covered everything. Now I am going back over to my blog… where messages are waiting from BB *AND* Jannie! Woo hoo!

    Jannie,

    Please forgive me for directly addressing Gyan here but I feel compelled…

    Gyan, what were you thinking drinking all that butter beer and then commenting here sounding as intoxicated as Blue Bunny(ie)?? Where did you get the butter beer, anyway? Were you with Blue Bunny(ie)?? Did you do a side-apparition with Blue Bunny(ie) to Hogsmeade to obtain butter beer? What’s going on here?

    Jannie, I’m so very sorry if my friend Gyan was a bad influence on BB in any way! I hope she didn’t encourage BB to over-indulge in butter beer. Though it would explain the spelling style of both Blue Bunny(ie) and Gyan… if they shared a few butter beers together, wouldn’t it? Hmmmmm.

    So, anyway…

    CHRIS!! I like your take on this strangler laughter rehabilitation program. We had some programs like that in Canada for recovering maple syrup addicts — laughter was the only cure, and probably cures most everythign known to man. And woman.

    COOKIE– I Love your couch drop typo. Or was it? Maybe your custom is to drop couches on yourself?? I knew a guy in my hometown who lived under a couch. I hope you don’t have too much of a cough?? I’ve got a bit of a tickle in my throat.

    ROSE!! Um,was that you who wrote that?? Ha!!! You rock. I remember Ann,to here remain surnameless, in her biology presentation told us “constricted
    arteries could cause shortness of breasts.” And who were we to argue?

    KEITH!! I hope the area of your anatomy that was laughed off has returned!!? And bless YOU for reading these. I would be no where without you readers.

    JEANNE, JEANNE, JEANNE, JEANNE, JEANNE, JEANNE, JEANNE!! I see how Zeenat Positive Provocations has moving snowflakes on her blog, I wish mine were falling, not just fa-la-la-la-la-ing. Jeanne, I split that 10 cords with my eyes shut and both hands behind my back. Sorry, only drink margarine beer. Needless commuting, is that close to needles commuting, when needles take the bus? Oh, and ato BB’s Blogger gravatar, it leads back to this blog, so I’d have to figure out if and how I coudl incorporate a second e-mail address to thhis site, hmmmmn, I’m not sure it can be done with wordpress to have 2 e-mail addresses??

    GYANDEVI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HI!! And a big hearty belated welcome. If I’d lay off the margarine beer I could get these kommints, I mean comments answered in a more timely fashion. Do you have a blog??? GYANDEVI, again!!!! Have you met my other Jannie, Sybil?? So come back and tell me more about yourself, okay??

    SNAGGLE I know, I know on the bear claw, I was just pullin your leg, as you probably know. Mom and Dad’s little lumber shack way back in the woods did have a bear’s claw print on the door. Darn bear must’ve smelled the oatmeal within, tore the hasp clear off. Ate the molasses too. Such a tragedy for the shack. I love my kitty. I’m at the library ans miss him a lot. He can fly, you know!!

    TEAHOUSE!! Yes, I stuck my laptop where I shouldn’t-a — on my ankle, I actually fell asleep like that one night and woke up with hives or barnacles or something all over the right side of my foot. And in my left ear. Do NOT do that at your home!

    TALON!! Well, I guess if this was the first of my posts in the 14 months you’ve been coming here that you missed I’ll let you off with nit-free brownies.

    JEANNE!! Blue Bunny was going through a bit of a gender identity crisis earlier today, having found out once and for all from my opthamologist that he is indeed a HE-male guy of the boy gender. Guess we was most likely mourning the loss of his feminine side earlier today. But he’s fine now — our smoking cigars and swilling 151 rum with the poker rats on the porch. So nope, no clone or impostor here. Now that you mention it, I have been seeing inexplicable charges on my Visa from World of Veggies. Hmmn… What shoudl I do with that wascally wabbit??

    AND JEANNE!!!! Sounds like Gyandevi is one of us — kooky. Just hope they aren’t all swilling my new batch of margarine beer, jsut made it today.

    JOAQUIN!! You sir are a delightful soul from a by-gone yet future age of angels and mystical corn farmers. Aren’t you?? Maybe?

    SHEILA!! Oh woman of few but meaningful words. The fur candles we borrowed from the goats in lingerie.

    AUDRA!! HI. Just all flabber-gustoed that you shouldst darken my hollowed door again so soon. And I am not quite sure if you meant to leave your comment in deed on this or perhaps on my next post with iChris Edgar’s review – as you did mention book review and all in it. Humbled.. And happy you.

    JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE, JANNIE!!

    I love your snow and it doesn’t need to be fa-la-la-la-la-ing. It’s perfect just like this.

    Jannie, didn’t anyone ever teach you the safety rules. Splitting wood with your eyes closed? Sounds dangerous!

    We don’t want any damage to your guitar-playing hands! (Not to mention your blog-typing hands)!

    Of course, you do have your hands insured with Lloyd’s of Londonhttp://www.lloyds.com/, right?

    Even if your hands were tied behind your back, I worry about you somehow injuring yourself in such a way that your ability to make Funster music would be impaired. We can’t have that!

    EEEEEWWWW! Margarine beer. I’m sorry, Jannie, but that’s just plain gross.

    No, needless commuting and needles commuting are two different animals.

    I’m confused. BB commented on Alicia’s blog with a Blue Bunny face on his (yes, his) avatar. I think Alicia might be onto something with her theory that BB might have a crush on her.

    Yes, Jannie, ’tis true… Gyandevi is kooky like us. Very much so. I know she has been finding your comments highly entertaining.

    I think you should lay off the margarine beer. “Tis true that when a hilarious and colorful character like Gyan starts frequenting your blog, you want to make her feel very welcome.

    Trust me, she is funny in the way that makes you laugh until you cry and get rib pain. Jannie, I’m guessing that Gyan will be back to visit. She has caught the Funster humor bug.

    Jannie, thank you for verifying Blue Bunny’s gender. Now I can stop typing he/she all the time (which was getting a bit tedious).

    I’m glad the opthamologist was able to clarify things. Opthamologists are good at making things clear. (Get it?)

    OK. So, Blue Bunny is a boy. It would make sense BB would have some grief while mourning the loss of his feminine side (after all, having a feminine side is pretty kick ass, you know?) but I’m sure he’ll adjust. This all makes me think of Tori Amos’ American Doll Posse album and the female archetypes she had… and all of her talk about the masculine and the feminine.

    Hmm. You think he’s fine when he’s out smoking cigars and swilling 151 rum with the poker rats on the porch????? I dunno. Cigars emit toxins into the air. we don’t want that. Especially with poor Kelly around. If I were you, I would make it one of BB’s job requirements NOT to smoke that stinky, toxic cigar… which will make everyone around sick.

    As a compromise, you could allow BB to keep the poker games going.

    Happy to hear there is no impostor, though.

    Hmm. Those inexplicable charge on your Visa from World of Veggies do seem highly suspicious. I would look at the wascally wabbit as your most likely culprit. Treat him as a suspect. What should you do with him if he WAS using your Visa without authorization??

    Hmm. After berating him for the purchase, I would let him know that the ONLY purchases he is allowed to make without your specific pre-approval are Amazon purchases through my blog.

    Any other purchases should require clearance with you, I think. But as I understand it, you did give BB authority to make a substantial Amazon shopping trips on my blogs.

    Also, I’m not sure you saw but Amazon DOES carry carrots. I researched it for Blue Bunny when he typed EBay and my eyes went haywire while my brain shouted, “no!” Amazon it is!

    Yes, Gyan is definitely kooky like us. Don’t worry. I know she won’t drink your margarine beer.

I too would love to go into a cola mine, especially one with organic cola beans, um, umn, loves me some of that kind. I could swill 2 in a row. I like the Whole Foods 365 brand.

    LIARA!! I just love these typo posts too. After I post one I wonder if I’ll ever get any new, I seem to surely have depleted all there could be? But no — they seem to find their way out and up. FOUR new ones yesterday alone. yay. One about wanting my friend to have one toe.

    JEANNE!!! My facial was great but I’ve got 4 chin hairs now, instead of 3. But nothing a tweezer can’t take care of. I actually have my hands insured by the Geico Gekko for $29.95 each. But I put a full $99.99 on my left little toe, that one has gotten chopped a few times (but I didn’t tell about it as a pre-existing condition. Our little secret, okay?)) BB loves Alicia because her hair reminds him of karrits. Nope — just candy cigars for BB. Oh, I’m gonna get 2 of Chris Edward’s “Inner Productivity” book from your Amazon link, most likely tomorrow or Sunday, whoo-hoo!!

    Jannie,

    Ummmm… TMI regarding the facial hair.

    I am pleased to hear that your hands are insured. This is good news indeed! I see why you purchased extra coverage for your toe. Was it injured while splitting wood, perchance? I don’t blame you for not advertising that you are toe-challenged. I hear that being toe-challenged could well be a pre-existing condition. (Let’s face it. Many things are considered pre-existing conditions).

    I can see where BB would find the hair color appealing. (That’s a bit disturbing, though).

    Candy ones, huh?

    I just posted a comment on your post on Chris Edwards’ “Inner Productivity” book.

    Thank you very much for using my Amazon link to buy the books!

    Woo-hoo, Jannie! It’s so nice to have my Amazon links actually getting used… which in the last couple of weeks they have been. :)

    It’s amazing what a little word of mouth can do. I did 2 blog posts and a posted few Facebook links regarding my Amazon ad links (plus Hubby sent an email to family and friends).

    Now, I have people ordering everything from a pink toilet seat (I’m totally serious!) to 2 Pizzazz pizza ovens from Amazon via my blog ads.

    It doesn’t tell me who makes the purchases… just what was purchased.

    You’d be amazed at the diversity of items that people have bought through my blog in the last couple of weeks.

    My referral rate may be quite small but I’m pleased to be getting some volume to offset that.

    So thank you in advance for your impending purchase.

    Woo hoo!!!!!
