Funny Bones

There are 27 days to Halloween, has your funny bone been tickled yet?

Let’s Hear It For Imhotep

In honor of World Architecture Day, a mighty shout out MUST go to  Imhotep- chancellor to Pharaoh Djoser,a physician and an astrologer. He was also the high priest of the Heliopolis sun god Ra.

Most important of all Imhotep was the  architect of the first Pyramid built in Egypt.

Designed by Imhotep Step Pyramid of Djoser, Saqqara, Egypt

Without Imhotep the world would absolutely look different and our imaginations would not be as well fed and rich:

Boris Karloff-as The Mummy

Arnold Vosloo as Imhotep in ” The Mummy”

Happy World Architecture Day everyone- in the Spirit of the Day and the upcoming festivities starting in 27 more days, may I suggest we celebrate this special  one with a lot of enthusiasm and much affection.

Merry October!

Wilfred Jenkins (1857-1936)

Happpyyy October 1st Everybody!

It’s time to dust off the skeletons,  find my stash of body parts,  and wipe down the coffin with the squeaky hinges with furniture polish ( I prefer Lemon scented polish ).

Now I should really hunt down the  jar of  screaming eyeballs I got for Christmas and the severed head I got for my birthday-

and hide them before the authorities show up!

There are 31 Days To Halloween- make them count!

Happy October’s Eve !

 

Then came October, full of merry glee.

 Edmund Spenser

The trees are in their autumn beauty
The woodland paths are dry
Under the October twilight the water
Mirrors a still sky.

William Butler Yeats
