Maybe you noticed, maybe not. Last night I was bored and was messing around with the masthead on my blog. I felt the Handcart Man needed to be brought into the present, so I made some minor adjustments.
One of the results of the change is that a few more members of the company were revealed. These two:
As I added the speech bubble for the Handcart Man, I began wondering what the other two might be saying behind his back – literally – not necessarily snarkily.
So I figured that I should ask my esteemed readers for their thoughts on the matter, for I know you to be witty, wise and extremely attractive. Please comment with what you think they are saying. There are no limits to length because I don’t have room to really put them up. Let’s see what you can do.
I’ll start:
Woman: I don’t understand why you make me wear this black bag over my head. How does it benefit me?
Man: Honey, it ain’t fer yer benefit.
See how easy that was? Give it your best shot and have a happy Friday!
-MMM-

This is some funny stuff! Love the entire blog, but often the comments truly enrich the basic wisdom/humor of the original.
Woman: Pioneer children sang as they walked and walked and walked and walked…..
Man: Do you really think following the Bishop while singing this is going to get you released as Primary choristor?
Man: aw, shucks I did it again.
Woman: Well maybe if you would look down once in awhile, like me, you’d avoid the oxen poo.
Woman: . . . and in the second row of the garden, I will want to plant tomatoes . . . and in the third row, I will want to plant zucchini . . . no, I mean the zucchini in the second row, and the tomatoes in the third row . . . and then in the fourth row, I want to plant bell peppers . . . no, wait, the bell peppers should go in the first row, which will bump the green beans to the second row, and I think I want to switch the zucchini and the tomatoes again . . . or on second thought, maybe potatoes should go in the first three rows, which will then bump the bell peppers . . .
Man: (in thought bubble) It is going to be a VERY long trek . . .
This is funny!
Woman: I know this sounds strange, but have you seen Brother Jones’ wife today?
Man: Come to think of it, the last time I saw her was last night.
Woman: Brother Jones does seem to be in a better mood today.
Man: yeah, but his handcart looks more loaded up.
Man in front: Don’t make me turn this handcart around!
Man: Doesn’t he know the left lane is for passing only?
Woman: Knock, knock.
Man: Who’s there?
Woman: Take off this bag and you might be surprised!
Ha! Clever clever comments here today. I gotta say I liked yours the best though, MMM. Authentic. Right outta the horse’s mouth. 🙂
I’ve got plenty left, so it was worth it. I’ll just watch a manly action flick tonight to bring me back up to par.
Your implication is that as of right now you are sub-par.
Don’t worry. I watched the new Mission Impossible last night, and today I put a new fuel filter on my car and shoveled and tilled compost into my garden. I should be back up to normal supreme manliness now.
You still not quite getting it. Unless you take off the tiara, you don’t get full credit – even for composting.
Woman: (who is clearly walking forward) – “OH EM GEE Isiah! I am so sick of lookin at that dude’s butt crack. Go over there and tell him to pull up his britches!”
Man: “No way Sariah, dude is the only one who can make the shoe leather we have to survive on taste like buffalo wings. So keep yer head down, mouth shut and keep walkin”
Dude? That’s his name? Hooray for buffalo wings!
Woman:Does this black hat make me look fat?
Man:No,Dear. It’s all the cans of Diet Coke in your petty coat.
Woman: Whaaaat? You did not just call me fat. No Diet Coke for you!
I couldn’t resist:
Woman: are you sure panning for gold in California is the only way to secure our holdings in Downton Abbey?
Man: Trust me, Violet, we’ll never need money again.
10 point deduction off your Man Card for that one.
Man: “Mahanna, you ugly! Pick up your pace!
Woman: “Wait till I pop you with my Lodge cast iron skillet!”
Woman: “I don’t know about the color of this toe nail polish.”
Man: I think buffalo pattie brown kind of matches your eyes.”
Thoughts only.
Woman: Great! This river is totally ruining my pedi!!
Man: So if I get Dish it’s cheaper but Direct TV has the Sunday ticket…decisions decisions.
Woman: I’m not looking forward until Handcart Man pulls up his pants.
Man: I don’t blame ya. It ain’t pretty.
You can actually kind see her face if you look hard…
Anyhow, here are my responses:
Man: “Can you pick up the pace a little, we are like 4 days late!”
Woman, “Well, dear, I am like 8 days late!”
Man: “Dear, I am sooo exhausted, where did you put that last Mt. Dew?”
Woman: “Um….”
Woman: “Honey, can you help out a little more? At least I am pulling my own weight here!”
Man: (in a thought only bubble) “I can’t win this one”
Viki scores with the Trifecta!
Governor Boggs disquised as woman: Keep watch, make sure my face is covered, I don’t want Willey to recognize me this early on!
Man: How much further before we can be sure they aint comin back?
Boggs: We’ll turn back in Wyoming, lets say Winter Quarters.
That picture kinda freaks me out…I got nothing. I was going to say that your header looks more professional…but then you do have a woman with a bag on her hear, so you’ve successfully cancelled out the upgrade! Way to go! 🙂
C’mon Jocelyn. For someone as prolific as you are, you gotta have something! Besides, it isn’t a black bag – it’s a bonnet, and she’s looking down.
women: Sheesh, what did the guy in front of us eat last night. Nasty!
Man: I thought all you had to do was call Dish and they would relocate it for you.
“honey why am I wearing this bag on my head again?”
“So the brethren can see I’m not a good candidate for having a 2nd wife, Its all for you Baby”
Woman: See, honey, you should try and turn around and walk backwards for a while. It really relives some leg pain.
Man: Hey…why does HE have a satellite dish in his handcart?? I told you we needed one! That’ll be my first purchase when we get to Salt Lake!
Hooray for Denise! NIce start!
