Betsy Ross, Sex Goddess


Dear Sillies,
If you have one, yank it out and wave it proudly!
{Incidentally, Thursday is Flag Day.}
Take care of yourselves, my friends.

  1. Patriotic duty suggests that if the flag is erect during the hours of darkness it should be properly illuminated.

  2. It would just be rude to poke an eye out after being invited in.

    1. I hate it when that happens, Pat. Fully agree.
      Thank you.

  3. Oh heavens to Betsy...wave that flag proudly. Kneel when necessary.

    1. That's what I'm saying.

      Thanks, Joanne.

    1. A far underrated saucy one, that is.
      You're right, as always, Spunk.

  6. So, does that mean I might get laid on Flag Day?

    Just got The Trumpeter's New Clothes today, and read it before I even got back in my car at the Post Office! As soon as I can, I'll be leaving a review on Amazon. SPOILER WARNING: It's gonna be a good review!

    1. WOOT! YAY! You're my favorite Fox!
      Thank you kindly.
      PS Hope you'll read it again and again.

    2. PPS Yes, you're going to get laid on Flag Day! What's your address?

    3. Maybe I should send it privately. If I give it out right here on your blog, more than one woman might show up, and... Waitaminute, waitaminute, waitaminute! I'm talking like that's a bad thing!

    4. Ha. This could be the beginning of a wonderful new life. For you too.

    5. By the way, Robyn, I just left my review of The Trumpeter's New Clothes on Amazon, but it hasn't posted... yet.

    6. Thank you, Silver. I read and love it. You are appreciated!

    7. I brought the book to the flea market Sunday, and one or two of the other dealers may end up buying it.

      Almost every time I read it, I spot something new. Sunday was the first time that I noticed the illustration where the King is petting a woman's cat, and she looks horrified. I thought "Why is she reacting like that? He's only... Oh, I get it!" Was that your bit or the artist's?

      Delete
    8. Ha! That bit, Silver, is MY FAVORITE little detail. ALL of those funnies are the illustrator's. I'm witty, but not compared to him. The only one that's mine is "White Lies Matter." It's likely the most potentially offensive ones, but I thought it was clever. He did too.

      Delete
    9. Yes, I saw "White Lies Matter." I even pointed it out to my sister, I liked it so much!

      Delete
    10. Thank you. Phew, I'm glad you saw this comment. Sorry it sometimes takes me a long time to read comments in response to comments. Unfortunately, I've missed a bunch too - over time. I really appreciate your support. "White Lies Matter" really just popped into my brain when I was talking with the illustrator - funny how that happens on rare occasion.

  8. This post provides a new theory about why the patriotically mindful run flags up their poles --so that those distracted by fireworks won't blunder into them.

    1. Now those are the true Americans, Geo. (The ones blundering into flag poles, that is.)

  9. test... just testing to see if this posts. I think I hit enter before I finished my last post, dagnabdoggoneit. In any case, I'm here to say hello and congrats on your new book. :)

  10. Since Georgie had wooden teeth, I bet other parts were made of wood. He may have invented the term woody

    1. It kind of makes you re-think that cherry tree fable in new and exciting ways, right, Birgit?

  11. Next time you parade it out..........that surely hits what is going on these days. Waving it purposely for others to see is not a sign of patriotism...not in my book. Read an article a few days ago the a Veteran posted, he says the most patriotic people he sees, are those kneeling. Hurrah for him I say.

  12. You crack me up, Robyn. :-) Happy Flag Day to you!

  13. And don't let it get rained on unless it's properly lit. (Oddly enough, that's actual flag etiquette. Sort of.)

  14. I need the right wind to raise it. Been a while. Must only be a light breeze about. I need a good old gust to come through and hoist that baby!
    Hope to get to grease a flagpole soon!

    ;)
