A Funny Pair

I enjoy good British comedy. For years I followed the adventures of Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "bouquet" for those not in-the-know) and her hen-pecked husband Richard in the BBC hit show Keeping Up Appearances. Now I have a new British comedy indulgence: Jeeves and Wooster. If you haven't caught this show before, it is really worth a look. Wooster, a snooty aristocrat with hair-brained ideas about life, employs a valet, Jeeves, who saves the day again and again. Dry-witted British humor permeates the show, of course, which easily whittles its way into your list of must-views.

The show was made popular during the early 90's and starred Stephen Fry as Jeeves and Hugh Laurie (famous for playing Dr. House in the TV series of the same name. My favorite show, which is now between seasons) as Wooster. I highly recommend putting this series of shows on your Blockbuster queue, but not until I've finished viewing them and I'm only on season one of four. Don't do it. Don't press that "add to queue" button. I know who you are and where you live!

Speaking of funny pairs. I just had to include this photo of Earle's sister and brother-in-law. This picture epitomises the joy and laughter that permeates their home, at all times. They exude warmth and joy, the kind of joy that only comes from knowing that everything in this life is safely in the hands of The Creator. A visit to their home is like a haven of comfort, a place you know you will be accepted and valued. They have a gift for that and a gift for spreading joy! All of Earle's siblings are unique and I am blessed by knowing each one of them. We will miss visiting with them this summer, but look forward to a trip to Maine in the fall.

Last, but not least, this pair's picture speaks for itself. They will both want to track me down now. I will have to go into hiding! Just when they thought they were safe, these darned pics show up after all! Face-painters beware of moms with cameras.
