Day 308 - The Hole-Filled Grail, Gay Guys Mills, Haunted By Electric Ghosts, The Unkillable Mr. Brown, Hot Scars, It's So Cold Ema Rossum's Commas Are Poking Out, and The Curse Of Popeye The Sailor Man

Mr. Brown
Aha! We got you now! Say does this grail have a bit of salad in it? Yep it does. Dang it!
12:26 PM Mr. Blue
It *would* be a miracle to drink out of that.
12:31 PM Mr. Silver
"Gingerly take this cup and drink of it carefully.  This is my blood so don't slosh it around. CAREFUL!"
12:34 PM Mr. Silver
"And the Lord did sigh in frustration, and said.  Takest thou this dishtowel and wipe up my blood with it.  No it's not a special dishtowel.  No it's NOT a miracle.  Just...just let me do it...gimmie it!"
12:37 PM Mr. Silver
"And the Lord did call for a better cup and more wine, but there was no better cup to be had, and the disciples were just more careful the next time."
12:38 PM Mr. Blue
This is my body, which is given for you; now take this can and Do the Dew.



Mr. Blue
Mr. Woodcock on Blue Ball Rd.
3:13 PM Mr. Silver
Sounds like a euphemism for a relationship problem.
"It might have come up Blue Ball from here...the Missus and I are actually at our vacation home on Tease Rd in LaCock PA."
3:20 PM Mr. Blue
I read somewhere that Guys Mills PA used to be called Gays Mills
3:25 PM Mr. Silver
(proud farmer in 50's commercial) "So all you folks out there just ask yerself...'Where do you get YOUR Gay?'  (nods, winks...holds up loaf of bread...disturbing smooching to audience)"
3:26 PM Mr. Blue
Heheh
3:28 PM Mr. Silver
"(voiceover) Gay Guys Mills Bread...next time, why not choose Gay Guys?"
3:31 PM Mr. Silver
"Gay Guys Mills produces the finest breads and rolls with no strange additives.  Ask yourself...does your current bread have a queer taste?  Why not go Gay instead?"
Sadly this gag could run for hours but you waited too late in the day to put it up.
"(Happy mom) Me and the kids?  We all love Gay Guys!"  (little precocious boy) "We found out even daddy loves Gay Guys!"
(done)



Mr. Brown
So in an episode of Start Trek:Next Gen, I saw Data do a complete shutdown. Geordi thought he died, so he closed his eye lids which proceeded to twitch like he was not turned off.
7:46 AM Mr. Silver
Like low battery doesn't do weird stuff...
7:46 AM Mr. Brown
He was in a full system reboot.
I guess now that I think about it, some of his processes were still running.
7:47 AM Mr. Silver
In a twist of circumstance difficult to explain, Mrs Silver and I were sleeping in Silver Juinors's twin bed a couple Friday nights back.
Mr. Brown
Did it start shaking on its own? I've had that happen to me lots of times.
7:49 AM Mr. Silver
That's your own heartbeat starting up an oscillation.
Anyway.
In the dead of night I'm awoken to the noise of some machine running.  I was too groggy to sort out what it might be.  A low grinding or growling...mechanical. 
7:50 AM Mr. Silver
It ran at a low volume...then got louder for a couple minutes, then stopped. 
I fell asleep...”figure it out later”.
And then "PEEP PEEP!"
"Augh!  It's Thomas the Tank Engine!"
Mr. Silver
And now it's grinding and peeping at intervals, and Mrs Silver is hanging half off the bed, digging nearly blind in a toy box.
Get it!  Get it!  Augh!"
8:00 AM Mr. Silver
She finds it.  "I can't find the switch!"
8:05 AM Mr. Silver
I turn it off. 
This was a toy designed to follow a track made with water on a special track he got as a present when he was about 5.
It hadn't made a noise for years, and suddenly it's going berserk.
That wasn't the creepiest though.
The creepiest was the Sesame Street tool bench.
8:07 AM Mr. Brown
Oh yes the toys you turn off and forget about then they turn themselves back on later.
Mr. Blue (arrives partway in...)
Dreams?
8:12 AM Mr. Brown
Stuff of Nightmares
8:12 AM Mr. Silver
I'm surprised Silver Jr. is as normal as he is.
He'd complain about the workbench but it made no sense why.
Then I caught it late one night.
When the battery got low, it would do 2 things:
Make a sound of a power saw...
and then Bert would say "I SAW that.  Hehehe!"
8:18 AM Mr. Brown
HAHAHA



9:31 AM Mr. Blue
BTW ya'll, Mr. Brown is having another kid.
9:32 AM Mr. Silver
Yes, a long line of doctors will continue to be baffled by his genes.
9:32 AM Mr. Brown
Ok, how are you still alive?”
Well, I get that from my father's side.”
9:35 AM Mr. Silver
Geneticist "But this one section of chromosome...here...seems to be made of adamantium or something.  It appears to be all that kept generation after generation alive.  The thing is immutable...we blasted a sample with gamma rays."
Mrs. Brown "But the baby is fine?" 
Geneticist "Oh sure!  But look at this...we made a progression out about 10 generations for fun.  (taps something on laptop, swings screen around)  Boneless pimply brown blobs!  Cool huh?"
Mrs Brown "AUGH!"
Geneticist "An understandable reaction, ma'am, but they'll live forever and reproduce by budding.  Your descendants will be perfect for the coming environmental disasters." 
9:39 AM Mr. Brown
I have transcended into a virus.




9:42 AM Mr. Brown
9:43 AM Mr. Blue
99% of the population would have probably woken up before it got that far.
9:45 AM Mr. Silver
I'm betting he did it on purpose so he'd have a cool scar to make up for looking like such a ponce.
9:47 AM Mr. Silver
"The birds never guv me a second look til I got the burn.  Hurts like Billy-O but I tell 'em it's nothing I can't take, right?  Better than that Axe stuff any day."
9:57 AM Mr. Brown
I know I looked like a sissy girl when I messed up the end of my toe other day.
Normally I handle stuff better.
Its like when you shave a chunk of skin off; it hurts worse than just cutting off a appendage.
LOL
9:58 AM Mr. Silver
I can't recall ever shaving off any chunks.



1:45 PM Mr. Brown
These people doing the icebucket challenge are wimps.
They dump the ice in then just dump it on their head.
Leave it in the water awhile, then try it.
1:48 PM Mr. Blue
Yeah.
It's just luke warm.
1:50 PM Mr. Brown
I like Ema Rossum's though. She looks like she did it right.
1:52 PM Mr. Silver
...?
White cotton t-shirt and no bra, or something?
1:52 PM Mr. Brown
No bikini top and looks like the water was actually cold.
1:52 PM Mr. Silver
No bikini top?  Awesome!
1:53 PM Mr. Brown
LOL
1:53 PM Mr. Silver
The power of punctuation.



1:49 PM Mr. Blue
The cartoon character Popeye the Sailor Man is portrayed as having a strong affinity for spinach, becoming physically stronger after consuming it. The commonly accepted version of events states this portrayal was based on faulty calculations of the iron content.[20] In the version, German scientist Emil von Wolff misplaced a decimal point in an 1870 measurement of spinach's iron content, leading to an iron value ten times higher than it should have been, and this faulty measurement was not noticed until the 1930s. This caused the popular misconception that spinach is high in iron that makes the body stronger.
1:50 PM Mr. Silver
Yup.
"Once the math mistake was detected in the late 1930s, Hitler caused the disgraced German scientist to be exhumed, publically stripped of degree and citizenship, and buried under a one room elementary school in Poland."
"We don't need his type here," said the Fuhrer, "and he will be placed where his ghost can cause the least harm in the new world order."
"The bones were retrieved, decades later, and cremated by a descendant, who kept the urn at his workplace...measuring and polishing mirrors for the Hubble Space Telescope."
