Ads that I like: #83


Man, if there is one thing that I CANNOT stand, it is war rudeness poverty theft man's inhumanity to man wanton environmental destruction wives who neglect their stockings.

C'mon girls, as the ad says, husbands admire wives who keep their stockings perfect.

Conversely, husbands detest and abhor slovenly oafs who crash about like drunken moose with ladders from here to eternity. Fair dinkum ladies, check out that look of disgust the dude above is giving his wife while she's there knitting away, completely unaware. She'll only have herself to blame if he starts fooling around with a more careful dame.

I remember Lux soap. And a few other kinds. Fels Naptha. That sound like some forlorn chemical that my mom sometimes used. She never owned hose during the war years when they were rationed and when people painted the hose seam up the back of their legs. Seams were in and the war year hose came with and without them. Stores had more without than with.

And this will hurt you.. :D

The state of her stockings is sickening. How is she supposed to remain attractive to him (as is her duty) with her stockings in that condition? The skirt is nice, tho.

I'm not certain that that is a look of disgust in his eyes. I think it's lust.

I have to ask do you sleep? With taking pictures of the lads, riding the bus to work...and I assume working, when do you have time to write such numerous and entertaining posts?

And wives admire husbands who do not wear the same socks or different color socks :-P.

Your post on Marital Bliss was hilarious. Have you ever thought of doing those standing comedian shows? :-)

Abe, nylon stockings won the Cold War!

Babzy, and shameful too!

Candie, I’m lots bigger than Jen. I can take her.

Alan Smithee, it is VILE.
Kris McCracken said…
Doc, there is a thin line between disgust and lust. Maybe it is both?
Kris McCracken said…
Colette, I have something inside that needs to get out. It is driving me mad.

KL, stand up comedy is for amateurs. The real money is in plastics.
KL said…
Plastics!!!?? You mean credit cards? You have to pay the bills!
Kris McCracken said…
KL, as in industry. I've never actually owned a credit card.

Hold me now, oh hold me now, until this hour has gone around. And I'm gone on the rising tide, to face Van Dieman's Land

Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER. Tasmania is the ONLY island state of an ISLAND continent. That means, we're surrounded by WATER. That should help explain why I take so many photographs of water . Tasmania was for a long time the place where the British (an island race terrified of water) sent their poor people most vile and horrid criminals. The sort of folk who would face the stark choice of a death sentence , or transportation to the other end of the world. Their catalogue of crimes is horrifying : stealing bread assault stealing gentlemen's handkerchiefs drunken assault being poor affray ladies being overly friendly with gentlemen for money hitting people having a drink and a laugh public drunkenness being Irish Fenian terrorist activities being Catholic religious subversion. ...

Something unpleasant is coming when men are anxious to tell the truth.

This is the moon. Have I mentioned how much I adore the zoom on my camera? It's Theme Thursday you see, and after last week's limp effort, I have been thinking about how I might redeem myself. Then I clicked on the topic and discover that it was BUTTON. We've been hearing a lot about the moon in the past couple of weeks. Apparently some fellas went up there and played golf and what-not forty-odd years ago. The desire to get to the moon, however, was not simply about enhancing opportunities for Meg and Mog titles and skirting local planning by-laws in the construction of new and innovative golf courses. No, all of your Sputniks , "One small steps" and freeze dried ice cream was about one thing , and one thing only : MAD Now, I don't mean mad in terms of "bloke breaks record for number of scorpions he can get up his bum", no I mean MAD as in Mutual assured destruction . When I was a young man you see, there was a lot of talk about the type of m...

But when the strong were too weak to hurt the weak, the weak had to be strong enough to leave.

Can you believe that it is time for Theme Thursday already? Today we are not talking chocolate , toddlers , mess or ignominy . No, today we're dealing with ANIMAL . Now I could have posted a picture of a possum, numbat, wombat, wallaby or any other furry killing machine that roams our fair isle, but I figure that I'd use a far more deadly creature as an example of an animal . Some people - I know them as fools - have chosen to embrace that highfalutin idea that human beans are for some ungodly reason superior to animals. Of course, what these imbeciles seem to forget is that were are simple animals ourselves ! Anyone with a baby, toddler, teenage boy or Queenslander in their household could tell you this. Look at Henry [above]. One chocolate frog in the back of the car on a sunny day and all of a sudden it's Elagabalus meets Bacchus for a quick shandy in the Serengeti and we're down on all fours carrying on like a cat in heat. Fair dinkum, anyone who chooses to ...
