Friday 55.........

When Marilyn Monroe was married to playwright Arthur Miller, she was introduced to George Bernard Shaw...Not wanting to sound 'Dumb Blondish', she said....." Mr. Shaw, did you know that Sugar is the only word in the English language that begins with an SU, and sounds like Shhh? He thought for a moment, and said.....Sure!!!

  1. That sure made a darn good 55, sugar. Poor Marilyn. :-)

    I wish I could do these, but I'm too long-winded. LOL.

  9. naww, i'm not a broad,
    i'm just an ordinary gal...

    ps in your fist photo from yesterday
    your wrist is SO small compared to
    the rest of your hand...how odd!

    just got home from this drum thingy.
    it was okay, nothing earth shattering.
    i didnt play till the closing segment,
    well flute anyway, but i played percussion
    and no drumming at all...then i dashed out
    of there like so fast...didnt want to stick around
    for the socializing part...

  21. Poor Marilyn! It didn't take me long teaching English to avoid the words "only" and "never" like the plague. And "always." As sure as you use one of those, someone would come up with a contridiction! Great 55, as usual! xox

  38. Rest assured, that this isn't the first time I have counted the words, and not found 55. I wasn't familiar with the rules, and was trying to figure out what they were talking about. It has only been a week or so that I actually saw something about rules, and the it was supposed to be 55 of them. Some have been way off, as in sixty something. That was the reason I was confused about it. To even attempt it, takes a love greater than I am capable of. I salute you, your efforts, and the humor you bring. Plus, who else has read Dune and can have fun with it? If I've bruised anyone's sensibilities, please forgive my transgressions.

  42. pickles pickles pickles...
    i'm glad you can count Charles.
    to bring it down to an earth level here,
    this lovely exercise has more to do
    with the joy of being creative and
    expressing oneself
    than it does with pointing out
    what others have failed to do.
    sometimes the greater wisdom comes
    in knowing something,
    but not having to say it.

    ReplyDelete
  43. and G-man?
    this IS the calm version of me.
