Funny Friday: Thar She Blows

Today’s post is this month’s Funny Friday, a regular feature published on the last Friday of every month. Funny Friday is a collaborative project. Each month one of the participants submits a picture, then we all write 5 captions or thoughts inspired by that month’s picture. Links to the other bloggers’ posts are below, click on them and see what they’ve come up with. I hope we bring a smile to your face as you start your weekend.

Here’s today’s picture. It was submitted by Dawn of Spatulas on Parade:

1. Cop to no one in particular: Thar she blows. I always wanted to say that. Somehow it's not as much fun as I thought it would be. Maybe I needed an audience.

2. Cop to himself: how much you wanna bet I get blamed for this?

3. Cop, yelling out loud: Hey kids, grab your bathing suits, it's a hydrant party!

4.Water utility worker to himself: Now what page in the manual tells me what to do about this?

5.Water utility worker to himself: Damn, I was hoping that would be oil. I always wanted to be Jed Clampett.
