Laundry Time

"Small" chores....we all have to do them.

Twenty floors up, nice view, new washer and dryer.





The decor may be someone's idea of a joke. 









Colossus is happy that she got the large size hangers.


And, it's fun to read while you are waiting. Pretty sure you are not supposed to be sitting on the dryers, though.






Many thanks again to my son for his assistance on this project. He suggested I use the gum containers for something. I thought they looked like a washer and dryer so here's my idea. We both love Legos so it was fun making the controls...also the pipe is supported by Legos. He also made the little hangers in the laundry basket.

The Comedy Duo of Wilde and Wagner

Ever since the new club in town put up this poster the excitement has been building for the return of the great Oscar Wilde and his sparring comedy partner Richard Wagner. 



The hostess introduces the pair.


It's a bare bones spot, but aren't some of the best places like that? Not much on decor, but they bring in the best talent. There's a full house tonight.






It's got a nice owner and good drinks.


Wilde says to Wagner..I said we were going to a club not bring your club.


Wilde says to the crowd, "I like Wagner's music better than any other music. It is so loud that one can talk the whole time without people hearing what one says. That is a great advantage."  No wonder Wagner is ready to clobber him.


Gambit is thinking, "I can't listen to that much Wagner (either), ya know? I start to get the urge to conquer Poland."


With all this carrying on, it's good to have a medic in the crowd.


At the end of the night, after they put their weapons down, the talent scout presents them with the trophy for the best comedy act or is that the one that's been around the longest?


Spiderman has been waiting patiently to get a chance to have his book signed by Oscar Wilde.


He rushes up to the podium. Wagner says, "How come no one wants me to sign any sheet music?"





Thanks to my son for aiding and abetting on this one.
