Good Monday morning, friends! I hope you all had a great weekend … yesterday was the first day of summer in the northern hemisphere and I get the feeling it’s gonna be a long, hot one in more ways than one. Today’s Jolly Monday might be a bit shorter than usual, for I am under the weather, Joyful has gone to try to lure Uncle Roger out of his basement with chocolate ice cream, and Jolly … well, Jolly found the ‘toons and such, but as you probably remember, he’s not allowed in the kitchen, so today’s treats are courtesy of a few local fast food places. So, grab a bite and a drink and let’s see what ‘toons ‘n such Jolly has in store for us.
JOLLY!!!! Where are the drinks???
Oops … sowwy! Here dey are …
An’ dis one is for Miss Ellen …
Okay, well, let’s move on to some cartoons, shall we?
And, he found some funny memes, too …
Ol’ Maxine seems to have become a regular on Jolly Monday …
And let’s wrap things up with a cute critter video …
I hope you all have a beautiful week ahead … and remember to share those smiles and maybe even a hug or two with those who look like they need one, ‘k? Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly, and the temporarily errant Joyful!
Love the cartoons……maybe if I throw a few strips of bacon on the pizza it will be like old times?

Namaste, Miss Jill! Guess what? It’s School Vacation! I am so happy cause it’s going to be a fun summer this year. Not like last summer. I’m sorry, but I don’t like any of those drinks that Jolly picked. That’s okay cause I love the donuts and Gem has milk for me. I don’t like burgers either just hot dogs. I might try the tacos that my Mommy makes but it’s a broken burger so maybe not. I love french fries and chicken nuggets from McDonalds. I love grilled cheese from Bliss and Dennys. Mommy and Gem make really good grilled cheese too. The video is awesome! That little sparrow is so special and cute and Happy is a great name. Neckbuster hugs and kisses for Jolly and you. Bye and thank you.

Namaste Benjamin!!!! I am so so so happy to see you! And I have to apologize for not having any juice boxes, but now that I know you’re on summer break from school, I have bought juice boxes just today for next Monday! I am surprised that you don’t like burgers! I’ll try to remember next time that Joyful’s gone and we do carryout to get you some hot dogs and chicken nuggets! You really should try tacos sometime, though … they are much nicer than burgers! I’m so glad you liked the video of the adorable little sparrow! This is the first neckbuster hug I have had for too long, and I absolutely loved it! And the kisses too! Thanks for coming to visit me ‘n Jolly, dear Benjamin! I love you to the moon and back!!!

I’m so glad you visited Jolly Monday and found some smiles here! Yes, the sparrow amazed me, too! I suspect that most animals are far more intelligent than we give them credit for! Have a great week ahead!

I nearly choked on my hot cup of a delicious flavored coffee from Door County Coffee when I came upon the goblet of wine that Jolly prepared just for me! I had to laugh as I was drinking because this particular mug bears a sketch of a coffee cup, a goblet of red wine and reads : “COFFEE keeps me going until it is acceptable to drink WINE”. Warning : drinking and laughing at the same time is hazardous to your health! I absolutely appreciate the sweet gesture but really should save it for later. I have a firm rule about not having wine until 5 PM at the earliest and most often on the days that I do imbibe it is well after 9 PM. Then again, as it is already poured the thought just occurred to me…as Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet sing “It’s Five O’clock Somewhere”! The less than healthy cheese bites are tempting but a definite do not touch, I better stick to my more wholesome havarti cheese. Love all the cartoons especially the school assignment sentence and art! The video is too cute, a little someone will love it! Feel better soon! Thank-you Jolly and Jill!

Ha ha … well, I’m so glad Jollly’s offering made you laugh, but sorry about the nearly choking on your coffee! Happens to me all the time, and then I cough and sneeze for a full 15 minutes! Yes, as you say, it is 5:00 somewhere, and you don’t want to let the wine attract gnats! I’m happy that you enjoyed Jolly Monday and hope you have a great week ahead!

Jill, too funny. Let me start with an observation of the calories in those first seven fast food samples. Yikes. The comics are terrific, as usual. The wife of pi was a favorite, as was the old couple with the sayings on the back of their orange shirts. Keith

Every now and then, Joyful puts out healthy snacks, but most of the time a small plateful will satisfy your daily caloric requirement! I’m glad you enjoyed the funnies this morning! I hope you have a great week ahead, my friend.

I can’t decide which is the best cartoon either, if only all that wit and perception could be shared around. The thing with the captions though is that if any MAGA people get to read that one with the donkey and the moon a sizeable proportion of them are likely to believe it….of course it’ll stop them coming out at night.
Hi Joyful…I’ve cheered up the basement with nice light blue lights, cheery paintings of sunny woodlands and stuff, just for you.
