Fun with Dick and Jane

I love the innocence of things like Dick and Jane, but I also can't help twisting it around and corrupting it a bit. Here's a mere sampling...


Everyone was impressed with the size of Dick's package.
But, most of all, Jane was surprised to learn that Dick
had such feelings for her...




























My work is already done, here.








































I'm so immature... and I like it! What about you? Do you enjoy being silly and irreverent? If so, tell me all about it. I'm sure the rest of our readers would get a kick out of it, too!

It Sure is HOT, Esther! Let's Go For a Dip...

It's Summer, and the days are starting to really heat up here, in Southern California. So, taking a cue from some of my fellow bloggers who've also done water-themed posts, I thought that it might be fun to dive in the pool for a refreshing dip with Hollywood's bathing beauty of the 1940s and '50s, Esther Williams. Come on, put on your swim cap and let's jump in...

So pretty in pink!
What'll the boys think?

Wow, all of that time in the water
must've shrunk Esther!

Men, keep that in mind...

Long before dolphin-safe tuna, it wasn't
uncommon for fishermen to find Esther
tangled in their nets. Why they were
fishing in swimming pools, is anybody's
guess...

Even underwater, this lady looked good!

Cool, relaxed and... shiny?

Far from singing her "swan song", Esther

"Would you like a beverage? It's cool and
refreshing Lipton iced tea. You'll love the
brisk Lipton flavor! When I'm not
swimming, you'll always find me drinking
a delicious glass of Lipton iced tea!"

Even Tom & Jerry made a splash with Esther!




Alright, out of the water! We've gotten enough sun for the day, and the bus is heading back to 2009. Grab your towels, and don't leave your inflatable toys in the pool!

Wave good-bye to Esther, everyone!



I hope you all had a fun time! Come back again, soon, and we'll take another trip somewhere... Have a great weekend!
