A pig with a cactus?
A porker pine.

A cat with a lemon?
A sourpuss.

A banana with some light red lingerie?
A pink slip.

A chicken with a bell?
An alarm cluck.

An Eskimo with a nudist colony?
A polar bare.

A dove with a high chair?
A stool pigeon.

A tree with a baseball player?
Babe Root.

A parrot with a centipede?
A walkie-talkie.

A rabbit with a kilt?

A hummingbird with a doorbell?
A humdinger.

A dog with a chicken?
A hen that lays pooched eggs.

We have one day left in the month. January has hastened its way through the year, already. Remember the Saturday Novel tomorrow and maybe a rant on Sunday (I can feel one building up).

WEB SITE of the WEEK: Just like Free Rice donates grains of rice to hunger organizations when you choose the correct definition of a word, http://www.freekibble.com/ and http://www.freekibblekat.com/ donate 10 pieces of dog or cat kibble to animal shelters when you correctly answer a trivia question. All three sites are fun, and helpful. Bookmark them as favorites and visit often!

Mark's Musings is sent each weekday using Ezine Director and I pay a little more to make sure my posts are certified by Habeas to be a safe source of e-mail. That means no ads, no spam, and no worries. Subscribe, view past issues in my Archives, and do other things over at my web site. To contact me and someday get a reply, click here. I think God created cats so we'd learn the joy of taking naps and God created dogs so we'd get outside and walk a bit. You can forward or reprint Mark's Musings freely but please keep the credits attached. The credits are housebroken and may remain inside the post. Original material and musings © 2010 by Mark Raymond. I update this blog with a copy of my e-mail post daily (plus I often add graphics) and very occasionally with "bonus material" whenever the mood or muse strikes. Look for the label that says "bonus" and you can bring all that extra material up with one click. My personal mission statement remains John 3:30. Find me on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/baldmark/. Hmmm. If dogs=exercise, maybe I *should* get a dog. Maybe in the Spring, though....
