Greetings Folks,
This thread... after some eye-rolling and nose plugging from a certain Asst. Mngr (no names please) I have decided to start a punsters thread. It will be dedicated to puns & tall tales (any Callahan fans?)... I'm thinking of having it post only on Sundays...but that will depend on the interest level I guess, after all its not something I can bank on.
I'll start off with this .....
A Punderful Tale
By Scott E. Roeben
"You don't measure up," said the baker, deadpan.
"You're such a drain on me," said the plumber, plunging into the sea.
"I knew that would get a rise out of him," the baker said, rolling over to cook his back in the warm sun.
The pro bowler, adjusting the frames of his glasses, noticed the split between the two men he thought of as pinheads.
"Please spare us," said the bowler, "you don't strike me as hostile..."
The architect surveyed the baker and the plumber, two pillars of the community, and tried to give them support. He shot the archer nearby a look.
"The baker has a point," said the archer.
"But why must he needle the plumber like that?" asked the tailor, hemming and hawing.
"Oh, oh!" the plumber cried, wrenching in pain, his face growing flushed.
"Why is he yelling?" the shepherd asked, sheepishly.
"The plumber's goose may be cooked," the baker cried with mixed emotions.
The tailor was the next to realize that the plumber was hanging on by a thread.
"Save him," the banker shrieked with interest, hoping the plumber would soon be safe.
"Help!" the plumber charged, his throat clogged.
"Someone should help him," screamed the fireman, alarmed.
"He's blue," the singer noted, joining the chorus of onlookers.
The baker brushed by the painter and the dentist, swam quickly to the plumber and dragged him ashore with relish.
He cleared the plumber's pipes.
"Tanks," said the plumber, spouting off.
"Donut mention it," said the baker, sweetly.
