I WONDER WEDNESDAY

Our sweet & funny gal TarDevil @ Confessions of a 40-something Mama Queen has come up with a fun idea called..." I WONDER WEDNESDAY"...

*
I wonder who thought up spelling words with silent letters...you know:
g in gnat
s in island
c in muscle
b in comb, climb , crumb & thumb
and so on....
*
So, here are some other things I wonder about.....like why did I save this picture?
*
I wonder if this cute little pig knows he's going to wind up on a platter someday....

*
And I wonder how we went from Lillian Russell being the idea of beauty with her voluptuous figure.....
*
to Twiggy????

*
Or even worse, models who look like this...I wonder....
*
I wonder if you think Jessica Simpson looks FAT...oh yeah, she's a little more filled out than when she wore the daisy dukes in the movie Dukes Of Hazard...but I wonder why they are calling her FAT and I wonder why we would even care....
*
And now this...I wonder what he was thinking!!!
Now I think I'll run over to TarDevil's blog because I wonder what she's thinking!!

You are hilarious! You are the next Nikki Crumpet! That skeleton woman is freaky. And that guy w/ the mop just needs to stop! Poor little pig. I will feel sorry for him now - if I didn't have him for dinner!

Coloradolady said...

This was just too funny. I too felt sorry for the baby pig.....no bacon this week for me!

Kat said...

This was too funny. I've often wondered about the fat/skinny thing. That model needs to eat a meal for goodness sakes. I wonder if Marilyn Monroe were coming up today if they would tell her she was too fat? Thanks for the giggles. Kathy

Bo~
This was so great...made me smile! Thank you!!!

The last photo of that model is scary...she is way too skinny! I think Jessica looks just fine and the press needs to leave her alone! As long as she's happy in her own skin, that's all that really matters.

Have a wonderful day!♥

Lisa (aka) French said...

The Quintessential Magpie said...

Bo, LOL! I loved all your wonderment. :-)

I dropped by Tar's earlier, and I wondered at her wonderment, too!

And no, Jessica isn't fat. She looks great! But that model needs some serious carbs!

XO,

Sheila

Lynette said...

Bo - you are too funny! Kinda' makes you stop and go, HUUMMMM??

Poor Jessica Simpson is really getting a bad rap lately - I feel bad for her!!

And that poor little piggy - awww!

SmilingSally said...

I think that Jessica Simpson looks TERRIFIC!

How funny! I love the picture of the bunny and kitty.....too sweet!

Bridget said...

I'd take Jessica Simpson's "fat" over that's model's skinny any day!
I might not be able to eat bacon or ham anymore, thank you. lol
I wonder if anyone will read my blog if I post an "I wonder?"

Tardevil said...

It appears the way you see it when I look at it too. However, I went to highlight it b/c I was going to copy what you had written, and then I could see the text. Maybe you should change the color of the font. I don't know if that will work, but maybe.

Tardevil said...

P.S. Thanks for playing along today! :O)

Nancy Rosalina said...

Raxx - A day in the life said...

Bo, thanks for the laugh girl! This was so funny, I dont know why but the witness protection pic made me laugh out really loud!!

Raxx - A day in the life said...

Thanks for being so happy for me and my job!~ It warms the heart to have freinds like you!

Gone said...

I was WONDERING why I was laughing so hard reading this!!! Can you tell me?

I wonder why more people haven't signed up to win the TEACUP GIVE-AWAY or the BLOG MAKE-OVER ~ 2 current Give-Aways on our blog.

I was wondering, too, why it still has to be sooooooooo cold here (9 degrees at NOON)...while one friend, in NC has daffodils and crocus blooming!?!

~Blessings,
Jan

I don't think Jessica is fat and I like fat people. They are usually a lot nicer than skinny people. What a funny/cute post.

Lorrie said...

Great "I Wonder" post Bo! Boy does that picture of Twiggy bring back some memories! And no, I don't think Jessica Simpson is fat--and I don't really care, but I hate that young girls everywhere think they need to starve themselves to look beautiful! Mr. Housewife of the Year is scary!!!

Lori said...

Those are sooo funny.. Stopping by from Tardevil...

That model is grossly skinny....
And really who cares about Jessica Simpson???

lvroftiques said...

Hi Bo!! Thanks so much for the warm welcome back! It sure is wonderful to be reading you again! I think your "wonderings" are really good! Why indeed? We could just omit all those letters and think of all the time we'd save...probably hours to our lives! Lol! Not to mention how much easier it would be for foreigners *winks* How have you been my friend? I glimpsed that you had done a post about prety pie crust (the bane of my baking existence *winks*) So I'm off to read that one stat! Vanna

Hi Bo! This was such a funny post! I almost fell out of my chair when I saw your last picture.
Be a sweetie,

Carole Burant said...

Oh great...now you have ME wondering about all those things too! lol That model is just plain scary looking...but then so is the guy in the last picture!!! hehe Such a fun post:-) xoxo

Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoriti said...

Wow Bo! This was fun to read

That skinny model is scary.

I wish I looked like Jessica Simpson ...that's not fat!

Essential Oil Premier University said...

Very cute. And yes, I think this society of tanned and skinny is backwards. It used to be, years ago, that tanned skin meant you worked outside in the fields and skinny meant you were too poor to afford food. Girls these days are just too skinny!!

Blessings,

Sher

Bargain Decorating with Laurie said...

Bo, this was great! That underfed model gave me the shivers. YUK! Of course that last guy did the same thing to me. YUK! laurie

rebel said...

I love your pictures!
I don't think Jess is fat. No wonder young girls have a problem with self image, it's the media causin' it.
That skinny model who looks like death warmed over needs to go eat some bacon!
My Bad?
Just kiddin'

Jewel Sauls said...

I'm wondering with you Bo! Thanks for making me smile! :D Jewel

nikkicrumpet said...

LOL I LOVED IT!!!! Great pictures...and I really like the way you "wonder"!!!! And no I don't think Jessica Simpson is FAT....how can going from a size 1 to a size 3 or so be FAT...we live in a very sick society that we hold women to such a ridiculous standard. The last picture...TOTALLY CRACKS ME UP!

Stephanie ~ Angelic Accents said...

What a fun post!!

I, too, have wondered about the silent letter thing, along with the i before e except after c....

Aren't those skinny models just hideous?!?! Scary!!

Big TX Hugs,

Kathleen Ellis said...

Thanks for stopping by...have a happy weekend!
;-D

Diana LaMarre said...

I was wondering the same thing when I saw Jessica Simpson on TV. She looks just fine to me. I would never call her fat!
