Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Subject: frannys faith

franny - i was just on my way out - and just couldn't go with a clear head unless i extended to you my deepest condolences over the loss of your baby "faith." (it was a mutual friend of ours that told me about it and i had to reach out.)

i feel your pain girl, and know how much you loved that dog- to jump in the pool with your velour suit to save its life, sure says a lot.
-but "loss" just sucks. no two ways about it.

i remember my "oliver" a white west highland terrier, the only gentleman i have ever known, when i had to put him down, i was wasted for a month.
..and, no, you can't replace them! just savor the memories of the unconditional love they gave you...

here's to your baby - and i will definately have one on "faith" tonight.

love u festina xxoo

BACK UP JOKE O'DAY

A small boy walks into his mother's room and
catches her topless. "Mommy, Mommy, what are
those?" he says pointing to her breasts.
"Well, son," she says, These are balloons, and
when you die, they inflate and float you up to
heaven."

Incredibly, he appears to believe this
explanation and goes off quite satisfied. Two
days later while his mother is making tea, he
rushes into the kitchen. "Mommy, mommy, Aunt
Eliza is dying!"

"What do you mean?" says his mother.
"Well she's out in the garden shed, lying on
the floor. Both of her balloons are out, Dad's
blowing them up, and she keeps yelling,
"God, I'm coming! God, I'm coming!!
