SUNDAY FUNNIES: MOTHERS' DAY 2026

 
Meow Mommy!
Hello Everybody!
Woof! Mom!

Once again you are lucky enough to have both Piper D. Katt AND Koda Canine here as we celebrate MOTHER'S DAY!

That's right Piper! Mothers come in all shapes, sizes, and varieties. Whether biological, matrimonial, step, or adopted; any woman who cares about children is motherly.

We salute all mothers, whatever their qualifications and situation with the following humorous break from your otherwise busy schedules...

What did the mother bee🐝 ask the cranky baby bee to do?
Beehave.

What did the baby porcupine ask the cactus?🌵
Are you my mother?

Why is a computer💻 so smart?
Because it listens to its motherboard.

What did the mother broom🧹 say to the baby broom?
It’s time to go to sweep!

What did the momma horse🐎 say to her foal at night?
Its pasture your bedtime.

What kind of candy do moms love for Mother’s Day?
Her-she’s Kisses.

Who do flowers🎕 honor on Mother’s Day?
Their chrysanthemoms.💮💮

A mother is trying to get her son to eat carrots.🥕🥕🥕
“Carrots are good for your eyes,” she says.
“How do you know?” the son asks.
The mother replies, “Have you ever seen a rabbit🐰 wearing glasses?”

Daughter: "Mum, what’s it like to have the greatest daughter in the world?"
Mum: "I don’t know dear. You’d have to ask Grandma."😉

When a kid says, "Daddy, I want Mommy," that is the kid version of "I'd like to speak to your supervisor."

Two children ordered their mother to stay in bed one Mother’s Day morning.
As she lay there looking forward to breakfast in bed, the smell of bacon floated up from the kitchen. But after a good long wait with no food she finally went downstairs to investigate.
She found them both sitting at the table eating bacon and eggs.
“As a surprise for Mother’s Day,” one explained, “we decided to cook our own breakfast.”

I guess they haven't quite grasped the concept yet. Huh Koda?
Doesn't look like it Piper, but we have time/space for one more joke.

Why don’t they have Mother’s Day sales?
Because Mothers are priceless.

And on that note♫ have a great week.
Take care.
STAY SAFE! 😷
And one of us will be back next weekend with more Sunday Funnies!PDK and KC.

THE PUZZLE CORNER: MAY 10, 2025

 😎FUN FACT
George Lucas gave Mel Brooks permission to parody Star Wars on one condition, that there would never be any Spaceballs based merchandise. To this day, no one is certain whatever happened to all the props and prototypes shown during the movie.

BEFORE AND AFTER
Two separate items share at least one word, and so can be combined to create something new. Based upon the clue below, do you know what the new thing is?
Richie, Ralph and company on a long running soap opera.

NUMBER PLEASE
Get ready! We ask the question, but the answer is just a number.
With the selection of Leo XIV, to date: how many Popes have there been?

We’ll reveal all next weekend but for now, let’s open up THE ANSWERS BOX📦 and discover the results from the May 3, 2025 Puzzle Corner as we celebrated Star Wars Day.

AKA, ALSO KNOWN AS
What was George Lucas’ original title for what eventually became Star Wars, Episode IV: A New Hope?
THE Star Wars.
Okay, like we said, it was the working title. Luke Skywalker was originally named Luke Starkiller, so there was a lot of rewriting between first draft and finished screenplay.

TRIVIA TIME
What characters appeared throughout all nine movies of the original three trilogies?
The droids R2-D2 and C-3PO.

THE LETTER SHUFFLE
Do you know how many other words you can make out of the letters in STAR WARS?
ANSWER: Granted, there weren't as many as one might suspect, but you can still form:
A, art(s), at, as, ass, aw
Rat(s), raw
Sat, saw, Stars (star doesn't count because it was part of the original phrase), straw(s)
Tar(s)
War (wars doesn't count because it was part of the original phrase), was, (and) wart(s).
If more than the 21 listed above are possible, please let us know.

SUNDAY FUNNIES: HAPPY MOTHERS DAY 2020

Puppy
HELLO EVERYBODY! 
Dragon, duh!

Today you have both Autumn the Puppy & Waxy Dragon here as we unite via the Internet to observe MOTHERS' DAY!

That's right Autumn, and what with that dang pandemic putting everything on pause, it's been especially tougher than normal being a mother this year.

Afraid so Waxy.
One of the most difficult jobs a person can have within their lifetime is to be a parent.
It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to raise a child.
So here's to all our maternal parents!
You grand ladies know who you are.

But hey, it's a holiday, so let's celebrate!🙌
And you know what that means everybody...
IT'S JOKE TIME!

What is the "official" dance of Mothers' Day?
The Mom-bo.

What did the mother bee ask the cranky baby bee to do?
Beehave.

What did the baby porcupine ask the cactus?
Are you my mother?

Do baby lambs ask their mommies for their baa-baas when they’re hungry?

Folks, even without all the hassles and concerns that this COVID-19/Coronavirus crisis has raised, Mothers cook and clean and take care of their family and so much more that one lone day singled out to honor them just doesn't seem like enough.
So to every mother every where, not only do we sincerely thank you for being there and doing what you do, but we hope that you're taking care of yourselves as well.—AtP and wd.

The Sunday Funnies will return next weekend.
Until then, have a great week and STAY SAFE!

SUNDAY FUNNIES: HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! 2015 edition

Bow wow, arf Mom!
Hi Mommy!
Okay all you lucky people. Today you have both Autumn the Puppy AND Waxy Dragon as we celebrate Mother's Day!

So, what does make a mother? Is she only as strong as the coffee she drinks? Does she need a superhero cape or powers?

NO! The one thing that truly distinguishes a mother is the love they have for their children.

However, growing up can be a difficult task at times for both the mother and the kids.
A woman could dance for hours during a night on the town, yet be tired after only a couple of minutes chasing their children.
A child hearing their mother say "I'm not mad at you," when they've done something wrong is like hearing the doctor say, "This isn't going to hurt" before they give you a vaccination.


A mother can fawn over an expensive bouquet of flowers bought by their mate just as easily as a handful of flowers personally picked by her child, as long as they didn't come out of her own garden.

A mother can talk to their children about the importance of a healthy diet and eating lots of vegetables, yet the child will wonder what happened to the last of the cookies they knew were present before their mother warned them not to eat at the risk of spoiling their dinner.

It is hard to be a mother though. They have to think like both a man and a child, feel like a lady, always look like a young girl, and work like a horse.
A kid just has to be a kid, yet neither job came with instructions.

Mothers cook and clean and take care of their family and so much more that one lone day singled out to honor them just doesn't seem like enough.
Yet we would be remiss without saying...

The Sunday Funnies will return next weekend.
Have a great week everybody!

THE PUZZLE CORNER: MAY 10, 2014

Greetings! Sharpen those wits because we have a special quiz to celebrate MOTHERS' DAY!
While the observance is International (although not every country celebrates it on the same day), the following questions deal with its start here in the United States.

01. Who is accredited with the creation of this observance?
02. What was the creator's first success in getting Mothers' Day officially recognized?
03. Which President nationally recognized Mothers' Day, and when?
04. Do you think Mothers' Day has gotten too commercial?

We'll reveal all next weekend, but don't wait that long to honor your mother.
Meanwhile, let's peek inside THE ANSWERS BOX, and discover the results from the May 3, 2014 Puzzle Corner that played The Letter Shuffle with the names of the United States.

Our quiz questions did not include the District of Columbia or any U.S. territories, but did you know:
01. What was the most used letter when spelling out the names of all 50 states? A!
02. What letter is not used at all? Q! Although it does appear in some city names.
03. What letter starts the most state names? There is actually a tie between M and N, at 8 states apiece!
04. What letters do not start any state names? There are 7: B, E, J, Q, X, Y, and Z.
And finally:
05. Can any words be spelled out of the letters that answer Question 4?
Only 3: BE, BY and BYE.
