That’s me staring at the screen, waiting for inspiration.
On the other side, are my Facebook friends, breathless with anticipation. What will Henneke say next? Their toast is burning, the dishwater is running over and the baby needs changing.
They keep refreshing their screen, hoping for something brilliant from Mike.
(OK, YOU over there in the back! Stop with the eye roll while you read this. This is my post and I can imagine whatever I want. Scientists have proven that delusions lead to weight loss. So just sit quietly and eat your Cheetos.)
I’m only allowed something clever every six months. I better not blow this, I think. The pressure is really too much.
And then I realize how simple it can be. Like this video below. This is the title sequence to Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey accompanied by a local school orchestra.
No words are spoken.
No innuendos.
Just wet your pants funny. The most hilarious one minute and 22 seconds you will hear from youtube tonight.

Oh my goodness. Where do you find these things? That was almost as good as the ward choir. (did I just say that?)

I am not sure I can jump on board with this whole "No innuendo" thing. Let's not get crazy here.
Just when I thought it was safe to cancel my order to the "Incontinence Product of the Month Club"… you go and post something like this.

I refuse to listen to it. I saw that movie when I was 10 and it scared me. That music freaks me out!

I'm so glad delusions lead to weight loss. I would also like them to lead to clean houses, 3 more hours in the day, and no library finds. Hey, it worked! No more library fines. I'm so glad I learned this lesson.
And the video- hilarious. My son wants to start playing the viola, so I also found it frightening (imagine all the poor parents listening to the "practice" of those kids).

Oh gosh. That was horrible. I played the saxophone when I was in sixth grade and I'm sure my poor parents got tired of the wretched practicing coming from my room, but at least my band teacher didn't assign us something like that!
If you want something funny on YouTube that sounds pleasant as well, search for "Bohemian Rhapsody a capella." Hilarious and impressive.
