Humor

I have a weird sense of humor.  It takes a lot for me to just really find something that gets me tickled, I enjoy dry humor.

However, when I was a teenager I had a boyfriend who liked to sit on the phone and read the telephone directory to me, looking specifically for funny names.

That was when we discovered Weldon Rumproast.  Yes, a real person.  We never prank called him but just the name would send me into gales of girley giggles.  It never really occurred to me that was a very strange activity to begin with.  He went on to marry somebody else. I wonder if they read the phone book.  I don’t think I want to know.

Today I was watching a home show on tv and there was a Dutch designer, a beautiful lady, but her name is Winka Dubbledam.

I will just leave that here.
