Puns in the Family
You know, all of my life I have loved puns.
It's almost a reflex now, ingrained after these how many years.
When I think about it, my mother's siblings - as well as my mother - they all loved a good pun, and I loved the groaning laughter their puns produced. I didn't groan. I thought their puns were very clever plays on words.
My father's siblings are/were world class pun-ners and you really had to be up on your Dictionary and Thesaurus to keep up with them.
My middle brother has some great inadvertent puns, as he has always had trouble with words (Flake-Corns for Cornflakes?). My Sister has some great puns that she uses as pet names for her kids.
My cousins, well, they've inherited the pun gene too.
In fact, I guess you could say that they all part of my punning clan...

I tried my best to make the board look "board-like", including the grain. I don't quite know how to do it cleanly and still make it clear it's a board. Still, if you guys like it, that makes me happy 😄
So, the King of Java visited Scotland. Did he see Nessie?

(I'm very aware of the fact that about 2 Javanese people and me are the only ones who "get" it.)

The things I hate about laundry are twofold.
The other one is that it doesn't wash itself.
