The Pips??



For Maureen



i have always wondered what it would
be like to be a comedian, it looks so freeing
as you can do anything, all the things that
we say we cannot do, due to embarrassment
comedians seem to do and more!

they are so concentrated on the task at hand
that their faces are symboled into exactly what
they are doing, i know i could not hold by expression
that long, i would crack up as soon as someone said
"action", so a comedian i could not be

the other night this clip struck my funny bone
my laughter exploded

i have watched it several times
since then and each time laugh more

it is a good video for a relaxing Sunday
as we all need to smile
and of course a good "crack up"

Enjoy!

ibebold said...

Hey all...
I posted a bulletin on My Space... It is a must read... you just never think about things like that ...

ibebold said...

30!!!!!

iteach said...

Carol I just love that clip, I can't wait to share that with hubby!

iteach said...

IBB- I will check it out!

Lynn D said...

Morning Glories!!

Bebbi Got first!! Woo Hoo Woo Hoo! In the words of the Pips!

Mo: Oh My Holy Hell! I laughed my butt off watching this. I kept wondering what all of you were posting about the pips! Now I know!

I loved that Gladys was having a hard time not laughing.

When I was in High School and the one year of College, I had the chance of doing some physical comedy and it is freeing if you let yourself go.

I soon found that I did actually at that time have a knack for it and would make people laugh! I think 20 years ago I could have done it but I am not so sure now.

Thank you for bringing those memories back for me and making me have a great Sunday morning Belly laugh!

Jodi said...

IBB - EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!! I just never thought about that....but so true. I will never just plop my bag down just anywhere ever again!!!

Jodi said...

Woo hoo!!! LYNN D is in the house.....uh, make that the nest!!

Maureen said...

IBB...at the grocery store I usually shop at, they have a big container of Clorox wipes to wipe down the handle of the shopping carts. I always wipe the seat area, too so when I out my purse in, it isn't sitting on the germs! I also use one to wipe my purse, cause it was on the floor of my car!!

Maureen said...

LYNN D...good morning glory! WHy are you up so early on a Sunday? Hey, I didn't see I had a voice mail until I went to turn the alarm off on my phone. Sorry I missed you. I was snoring away!

Lynn D said...

G'Morning IBB did you get my Muwah's from yesterday? Thank you for helping with my MS dilemma!

Hey Jodi washing washing washing, that is my chore today also!

Iteach: Thank you for your lovely words on yesterdays blog!

Bebbi: You too!

EBJ: We had beautiful sunshine yesterday. I think you sent your weather this way because we are overcast and rain today.

Good Morning Pinka Tinka!

Waving at anyone I miss!

Bebbilane said...

I am off to go and do some chores myself..everyone have a great morning and day! I will bbl. Hugs

Lynn D said...

Good Morning Mo: Glad you were sleeping! You deserve that much needed rest!

If you guys are talking about germs on purses. I lysol wipe mine about every 4 or 5 days. I saw a show about it and it grossed me out so much I now make it routine.

iteach said...

Okay, Lynn, I'm going to go lysol my purse. I keep forgetting to do that.

Lynn D said...

Iteach: I do that but MO wipes the grocery cart and I never think to do that!!! LOL I guess I will just figure I am building immunities! LMAO

From Area 51:

Mary MI: Thank you for your volunteer service! You work so hard at helping those veterans and soldiers!

MEK: Note to self, If I get to AZ to visit not to eat if Mr. MEK is cooking! LMAO

ibebold said...

Our grocery store has those wipes at the door when you enter.. I use them ... I wipe the handle and the seat... I know little poopy butts have been there!!!

Yes LYNND-- I got your MWUH'S... I am so glad I could help...

hope every one has a great day.. I am Off...
Be back after work tonight!!!!

Safe and Happy Holiday to all!!!!

Maureen said...

How rude of me...

THANKS to all of you that sent me Jicama recipes yesterday. I appreciate it immensely

Tinkatia said...

Good Morning Maureen and Lynn. I am back with my Tropicana. I always mention the brand name just in case the right people see this and send me a dozen cartons. LOL

Ibebold, I always thought I was so careful with my purse because I always hang it up in Rest Rooms. I never stopped to think about other places it has been. When I get home from my Mom's lodge I wash my 'fur'babies feet. I put all my clothes in the wash and scrub my hands and face. I always feel there are a lot of germs there. Never have I thought of the fact that my purse is frequently on the floor in her room, at restaurants, in grocery carts and on the ground at my grandchildren's baseball games. Boy, what a good lesson. From now on my purse will be washed every time I feel the puppies feet need to be washed or I have just returned from the store or restaurant. Thanks for that information. That could save a lot of us from unnecessary illnesses.

Tinkatia said...

I was # 45.
Carol, I loved that clip.

Tinkatia said...

Have a great day everyone. I am off to my granddaughter's baseball game. It starts in an hour and I haven't eaten yet. I will remember to lysol my purse when I get home.

A shout out to all owls who haven't arrived yet.

Zona said...

Good morning everyone! I fell asleep on the floor...hubby stepped right over me to get to the computer!! How rude!

CPGEM: I think it is interesting that when you read about comedians, most were either very shy or loners as kids. They must use comedy to break out of that shell.

Thanks for the clip..I've watched it three times..just love it!!

BEBBI: Congrats on FIRST!

EBJ: Stormy and UGLY?? Not in AZ, stormy=beautiful!! ;)

JODI: Morning to you!! swak!

TINKA: LOL@ getting free juice! You go cybermom!!!

Waving HI to ITEACH, IBB and MO!! I think I need a Coke..my brain is still fuzzy..

TINA: You DO know it's eight AM..right??

Tina~in_ut said...

Zona said...

TINA: OK..up the stairs Sweetheart...;)

Jodi said...

TINA - Congrats to making it to early Mass!!! I'm proud of you....btw did you pray for me this morning?!!? I hope so.....many bad thoughts!!!

Tina~in_ut said...

lol Jodi~ I prayed for everyone! Some more than others~ Me the most! :)~

I'm going to lay down and see if I can make it to the beginning of the Indy 500 before falling asleep! :D

Jodi said...

Sweet salami dreams TINA!!! :p And thank you for the prayers....much appreciated!!! Muah!!

Shirley, could you please make us lunch today?

It is raining outside and I really could use one of your homecooked meals!

Tina~in_ut said...

iteach said...

Where is MEK this morning?

MEK, I hope you are feeling better!

Lynn D said...

A quick post before I go to sort the dirty's.

Just read where Dick Martin Died he was 86. Rowan and Marin what a comedy team!

MEK in AZ said...

Happy Saturday!!!

Good Morning...

Man - it's busy in here this am., so I won't address everyone!!

Just a BIG OLE' HOWDY!!!

Cpgem and MO - that Pip segment was the BEST during Idol. I totally agree - How do they keep a straight face???!!

Remember the Tim and Harvey Dental clip - Harvey was having a heck a time from bursting out laughing!!

laughter is what it's all about!!

My throat is still swollen - and my kitties were NOT going to let me sleep this a.m. - SO - I'm up for a few minutes and then back to bed!!

I hope everyone has an excellent day!!
:-)

MEK in AZ said...

Iteach - thank you - I'm right here!! LOL

Lynn - I saw that last night about Dick Martin - very sad.

MEK in AZ said...

okay -back to bed for me!! and Mr. VICKS!!

Anonymous said...

Happy Sunday Owls!

Carol...thanks....that was so fun to watch Gladys and her newest Pips again. Too funny!

If you want to see the original clip that they used for this, go to:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=vay7S7SQXyw
(Sorry, I don't know to do a link...but if you just paste this into your tool bar, you will get there!)
I think they must have used that clip...took the old Pips out and put the new ones in!

iteach said...

MEK, take a extra nap for me.

I have to go to a kid's birthday party this afternoon.

Don't they know that is my nap time? ;)

iteach said...

Zona, I hear you have cool weather. What is cool weather for you right now in Arizona?

Zona said...

ITEACH: It is 65 degrees right now, normally it would be at least 80. Only a couple days more of this though. :(

MEK: I am so sorry you are sick, hope Mr Vicks helps. Thanks for the Angel Food cake and chocolate milk. ;)

VIG: Thanks for the link, I thought she looked awful young. :)

Zona said...

"awfully young.." sheesh..

Anonymous said...

Zona...I thought she looked awful young too! The original was from 1973! How's Mr. Zona feeling today?

Zona said...

VIG: Not too good. He's still gonna get it for stepping over me too. ;)

Just_Lin said...

Mornin' Owls! Nice to see so many of you at the same time.

Bebbi Good for you, being first today and thanks for bringing the oranges.

Carol What a fun way to start the day! I LOVE that clip. Loved it the other night and loved it again today. I think I mostly love that Robert Downey Jr. was part of it. You expect the othrs to act like goofballs, but not him so much. Plus, I'm really happy that he finally seems to have his act together. I was really worried for him for a while.

Jennifer said...

Carol: Love the clip! I LOVE Ben Stiller and Jack Black! I would love to meet a guy like Jack Black or Ben Stiller! They are so funny and I love to laugh!

You know....my grandmother always wanted me to be a comedian. I always loved making her laugh when I was younger. She would beg me to stop and I just would keep at it (until she made a run for the bathroom because she was going to wet her pants from laughing so hard)!

Unfortunately, the older I got, the more cynical my humor became. However, I am glad for the comedians like Ben Stiller and Jack Black that keep us laughing!

I so love to laugh, but lately it's been more difficult to do so...

OK....back to the paper. Then I'll be with my parents and sister for a BBQ in the back yard (as the rain seems to have stopped).

Have a great Memorial Day weekend everyone! Thank you all for the great comments (I will be better at sending them once I get through this week)!

Jennifer said...

90! There! : )

Just_Lin said...

Zona If I fell asleep on the floor, my body would be so sore and my neck would be stiff. I'd be really crabby, too, probably.

Bebbilane said...

Hi all, I am back for a minute. IBB, I don't think I have you on my myspace. Can I get your myspace name or you can go to mine and add me. I am www.myspace.com/bebbi. Thanks!

Bebbilane said...

Just Lin, Vig, Mek in AZ, and Jennifer..HI!! I love this place, I just am glad I can come here today, i know many days go by and I miss a lot but thanks to everyone for letting me come and fit in when I can. :)

Bebbilane said...

Oops, I missed Zona! Hi to you too.

Also, I always love comedians. Even when I was a kid, I had pictures of Robin Williams when other girls had Donny Osmond or other "normal" teen idols. I just love them. I think the best thing in the world is to laugh and that is why I love my husband because he and I can laugh together.

Just_Lin said...

Bebbi I think being able to laugh with your partner is extremely important. Not only does it make life more fun but humor can get you through lots of hard times. And there will be hard times, guaranteed.

Just_Lin said...

Is no one marching to 100?

Just_Lin said...

Just_Lin said...

Just_Lin said...

lurkers?

Just_Lin said...

100

Maureen said...

100????????

Bebbilane said...

Just Lin! You are so right! I have always been attracted to comedic people and that was high on my list of priorities in finding someone. :)

Zona, I fell asleep on the COUCH last night and slept wrong and my neck hurts. My days of sleeping on the floor are over, I would probably never be able to get up!!!

And...if I missed anyone, just by accident..hello and Happy Day to all. I am not as good as others at reading all these and keeping up. :) (in other words, I am a little on the slow side).

Another thing, if I blog or phone, I have this annoying little habit of remembering something else I want to say after I post or hang up. So then I repost or call back. You can ask my kids they always expect me to call back right away about something else. lol. oopsy.

Just_Lin said...

Well, not so much fun alone, but I'll take it! :)

Maureen said...

JUST LIN...i tried to swoop in! Congrats!!!!!

Just_Lin said...

Maureen I saw that!! You almost grabbed it away from me! Good try!

Just_Lin said...

I should at least start the washing machine instead of just sitting here in my robe with a cup of coffee.

iteach said...

Zona that sounds like Illinois weather!

Bebbilane said...

That was funny Maureen..Nice swoop!

iteach said...

Hubby, is taking Philip to the birthday party and he is going to stay!

Yes, I get to take a nap with Carolyn and Matthew.

Amicus said...

Good Afternoon Owls!

Carol: I too am amazed by how comedians are able to keep a straight face during skits like that. I would be ROTFL! :)

VIG: Seeing the original clip with the real Pips made it even funnier. :) Thanks for sharing that!

Bebbi: Congrats on your first 1st!

Waving HI to Iteach, EBJ, IBB, Jodi, Tinka, Mo, Lynn, Tina, Zona, MEK, Just Lin, Jennifer!

From yesterday's comments...

Tinka: You quoted me correctly regarding Captcha. :)

BonO: I'm not 100% sure if this is what you were asking so just let me know if I misunderstood. :)
Our 2008-2009 season:
Legally Blonde ~ The Color Purple ~ Stomp ~ Spring Awakening ~ Cirque Dreams ~ A Chorus Line ~ Mary Poppins ~ CATS ~ Sweeney Todd ~ Hairspray ~ Riverdance ~ Phantom of the Opera.

Hope everyone has a fun, relaxing Sunday!
We're having a bad storm with loud thunder and scary lightning so I'm going to shut down my computer until it's over. :)

iteach said...

110 because that is how much I weigh.

Just_Lin said...

iteach Hooray for you! This is not the best weekend for birthday parties, IMHO.

iteach said...

Just kidding, I wish!! My younger sister would still weigh less then me!

Just_Lin said...

Amicus I love, love, love thunder and lightening! Wish I was there.

iteach said...

J/L I love a good storm too!

Just_Lin said...

iteach You threw me with the 110 remark!

iteach said...

I'm trying to remember the last time I weighed 110 and I think it was my senior year in high school.

Bebbilane said...

Hi Amicus, I hope the storm goes by quickly and is safe. Thanks for the congrats on first. :)

I haven't weighed 110 since I was a sophomore in high school. My junior and senior year I weighed 125! I weighed that for years until I had my kids then it really got out of control.

I would be happy to weigh 150!

iteach said...

Bebbi- Amen!!!

Just_Lin said...

Bebbi I would be happy to weigh 150, too. Haven't seen that in a long, long time.

Maureen said...

I haven't weighed 110 since I was a toddler!!!!

iteach said...

Time for nap time. I will go dream about 150.

Just_Lin said...

Maureen Me thinks you exaggerate! LOL I was probably 110 when I started high school.

Lynn D said...

110 I would be happy if my blood pressure would get that low. Weight don't want to think about it! LMAO

Maureen said...

JUSY LIN...nuh uh

Just_Lin said...

I would look terrible and sickly if I was 110 now.

whabbear said...

Hi, 'weenie, Amicus, Bebbi and all Sunday Owls!

Carol: I've always liked Gladys and the Pips. I'd rather live in her world than live without her in mine! LOL!

What a lazy Sunday we're having! Breakfast while watching the French Open, maybe hit some tennis balls this afternoon, and then heading to Barracks for Beer Bust.

:| :) :D !!

Bebbilane said...

Hi Whabbear! It sounds like you have a full day of plans, how nice! Not me, my plan..watch old movies on the tv, nap, play around on the computer and casually do laundry!

Maureen said...

omg...does anyone have the show Idol Rewind on their local Fox station? The best of the worst auditions of season 2! ROFLMBFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whabbear said...

Bebbi: What old movies? Sounds like a great way to spend your Sunday to me!

Tinkatia said...

I am home from Traci's game. We won. I know the main thing is how you play the game but it sure feels good when your granddaughter's team wins. The weather was perfect. I am going to take my 'fur babies' and have our nap. I will read the comments and respond when I wake up. Hope every one is having a great Memorial Day weekend.

sacBarb said...

Good afternoon Owls. I drug myself out of bed to check in on all of you. I think I caught MEK's cold and my sinuses are killing me.

Carol: Thanks for posting that clip. I loved it on the show and it is even better the second & third time.

Bebbi: Congrats on #1. Good to see you back in the nest and bringing oranges too. My sis does the same thing on the phone. Nine times out of ten she will call right back with something she forgot to tell me.

IBB: No problem, it is just good to know another GWTW fan.

Jodi: 100th load of laundry and no water loads...congrats.

Tinka: Enjoy your granddaughter's game.

LynnD: I'm not surprised you did comedy. You always keep me laughing here in the nest.

Tina: Thanks for the prayers. I can use all I can get.

Miss Zona: If my hubby walked over me while I was asleep on the floor he wouldn't 'get it' from me for a long time.

J/L: I, too, an glad to see Robert Downey has finally gotten it together. I think he is a geat actor and I was so pulling for him.

Amicus: Wow, you have a really long Broadway series. We only have 6 shows, one being an option that costs extra. The option this year is Stomp and we didn't opt for it because we have seen it.

Bear: Sounds like you are having a great time in PS.

MEK: I hope you are feeling better today. I think I'm going back to bed for a while.

Waving a wing at iteach, EBJ, Mo, VIG, Jennifer, and everyone else who lands after me.

Tinkatia said...

My comment posted twice. That is why there is a deleted post.

Bebbilane said...

Whabby, You are going to laugh...I am watching "Coyote Ugly"...not the old movies like you would think..lol. Actually I am multi-tasking and listening to the Beyond Reality Radio with the Ghost Hunters International too. My hubby thinks I am nuts. A myspace friend of mine is on the show and they just downloaded last night's podcast.

Bebbilane said...

Hi Sacbarb! Thanks for the congrats and glad everyone liked the oranges! :)

Bebbilane said...

Yay, Congrats to Tink's granddaughter's win! w00t w00t!

Want2Sleep said...

I'm sleeping.

Bebbilane said...

Hi want2sleep, I hope my w00ting didn't wake you. :)

Bebbilane said...

140!

141 my IQ

iteach said...

Just kidding!

night.owls.sb said...

Bebbi:
Congrats on First, So very glad you are enjoying the nest!

Mo:
I just wanted to share that clip with you, I knew you saw it and loved it. I wanted your Sunday to start off with a smile...

All:
And you guys too, a smile first thing in the AM is always good

BTW, I never ever weighed 110!
:O)

Amicus said...

Just Lin,
My dog, Buffy, is terrified of thunder and lightning so those kind of storms are nerve-racking for me and him. I spend the entire time trying to calm him down, because he clings to me and shakes uncontrollably.

He's also afraid of smoke alarms, and just my luck, one of mine went off during the storm. I was worried poor Buffy was going to have a heart attack, because I couldn't figure out how to turn it off. It's one of those 10-year smoke alarms with a lithium battery.

I came close to throwing it on the floor and jumping up and down on it. LOL! Fortunately, I found the "deactivate" screw before I smashed it to smithereens. :)

Just_Lin said...

Amicus Sorry about Buffy but LOL @ you jumping up and down on the alarm.

I know some dogs really have a difficult time with loud noises like thunder. They've been known to jump into bathtubs, try to climb up the inside of a chimney, and even jump through plate glass windows. That's not funny at all.

Bebbilane said...

My dog Bandit doesn't like Thunder storms. He gets really nervous. He isn't as nervous as Buffy but I always feel bad for him, he usually hides or sits really close to me.

night.owls.sb said...

Want:
Where the heck have you been?

Sleeping?

:O)

Just_Lin said...

The last doberman I had was very intimidated by the cats but ignored thunder completely. Go figure!

Just_Lin said...

Just_Lin said...

150

Just_Lin said...

Just had to do it! :) OK, back to my chores. :(

Amicus said...

Whabby: Waving HI to you too! Have fun at the Beer Bust! :)

SacBarb,
Our season tickets for the Broadway series include 6 shows too. The other shows are off-series so we have to pay extra for them.

Our season usually starts in Oct/Nov and ends in Apr/May, but next season starts in Oct 2008 and ends in Sept 2009, with Dec and Jul being the only months we don't have shows. It's the longest season we've ever had, and I'm thrilled, because I go through withdraws during the summer. ;)

Our Muny does summer shows, but it's an outdoor theater. I don't normally buy tickets, because our summers are so hot and humid. My friend, Cathy, is dying to see Miss Saigon though, and it's one of the Muny's shows this summer so we're going to that one in July.

Also, Christopher Kale Jones, who was amazing as the lead Frankie in the 1st Nat'l Tour of Jersey Boys, is coming back to St. Louis in July for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat so we're seeing that one too.

The withdraws won't be so bad this summer. :)

DreamaTexas said...

Amicus
No don't ever smash lithium batteries. They explode. Google it and it will explain everything. My Doberman was afraid of storms & my Pekingese is the same way and with the alarms.
Bebbi
hello.

Amicus said...

Just Lin and Bebbi: I too have heard stories of dogs injuring themselves and/or causing a lot of damage to their homes during a storm. It's a very serious issue for some dogs. Buffy just gets really nervous, more like Bandit.

Hi Carol! Since my Sunday night shows are over this season, I rented Hairspray so I could watch it tonight. :)

I'm off to take a nap now though. Buffy and I have had a stressful day. ;)

I was here all last night Carol, where he heck were you ?

Hi Bebbi.

Back to practicing my Pips routine.

Want2Sleep said...

I can't begin to tell you the stories about my dog and his reactions to thunder. I could write a book. But, it got me new furniture, 3 times.

Jodi said...

Hey WANT!!! No storms here yet, but they are coming!!!

sacBarb said...

Amicus: I am lucky that I usher for the summer musical theater. The 2008 summer schedule:
Sound of Music
Gypsy
Sweeney Todd
Swing
My Fair Lady
Evita
Hairspray
I have seen all but Swing. The season opens July 5th.

Amicus said...

Dreama: Thanks! I didn't know that. Glad I decided not to smash it. :)

Hi Want! I've heard of people using Rescue Remedy to help calm their dogs during storms, but I've never tried it so I can't vouch for how well it works. Since your dog is damaging furniture though, it might be worth a try.

SacBarb: That's a great summer season! Enjoy! :)

Bye for now, Owls!

SacBarb I loved Evita when I saw it in San Francisco years ago.

Okay, back to my regularly scheduled housework. :(

sacBarb said...

J/L: I love Evita too. Actually I am happy to be seeing all of these shows. Each cast brings it's own personality to a show. I just plain love musical theater, so I can watch all of them over and over. I have been lucky enough to have ushered since 1969, so I have seen many of them more than once.

Jodi said...

SACBARB - What a great line-up!!! I love musical theater, but don't go as often as I would like.

I deleted my 69 comment due to a typo. :(

Jodi said...

TINA - Congrats on 1-69!!! Glad you had a good nap......and I know you didn't bloody miss anyone!!!

Just_Lin said...

Bebbi You will find that Tina and Turtle aka KGirl are really good at grabbing all the 69s.

Just_Lin said...

Where is Turtle by the way? She must be getting hers elsewhere. ;)

Tina~in_ut said...

Jodi...love you to pieces! :)~

Bebbilane said...

Just lin, thanks for the warning. I am just a newbie so I will continue to practice swooping in. That is after all, what good owls do, right?

Maureen said...

BEBBI... Don't practice my swoops...I am rarely successful! Learn from TINA, MEK, KGIRL and IBB! They are the best in the nest!

Jodi said...
