    I sympathise with Jane. The other week I wore pink Moomin underwear to the chiropractor. I was thankful it wasn’t the Hasselhoff ones, but it was stull quite embarrassing.

            Not that I have yet found. I’ve got Moomintroll and the Snork Maiden together, Moomintroll skiing with little snowflakes, Moomintroll just puttering about on his own, and a ‘scene’ with Moomintroll, Toft, one of the creatures with a head like the Fillyjonk and a body like a horse, the Hemulen and various little creeps.
            I also have a spinning tealight holder, a t-shirt, a cookie cutter, a flask, various figurines and am considering a tattoo.

            Luckily my chiropractor is also a fan and a published kids’ books author so we had a lovely chat about literature that session.

    I am extremely interested in this legal humor as poetry idea from the author–bravo The Toast.

    I HAVE A PENGUIN JOKE.

    A vacationing penguin is driving through Arizona when he notices that the oil-pressure light is on. He gets out to look and sees oil dripping out of the motor. He drives to the nearest town and stops at the first gas station.

    After dropping the car off, the penguin goes for a walk around town. He sees an ice cream shop and, being a penguin in Arizona, decides that something cold would really hit the spot. He gets a big bowl of vanilla ice cream and sits down to eat. Having no hands, he makes a real mess trying to eat with his little flippers.

    After finishing his ice cream, he goes back to the gas station and asks the mechanic if he’s found the problem. The mechanic looks up and says, “It looks like you blew a seal.”
    “No, no,” the penguin replies, “it’s just ice cream.”

      Oh, oh, I have a penguin joke too!

      A woman is walking along the sidewalk when a truck pulls up at a red light. The woman looks over and sees that there are a bunch of penguins in the back seat, so she asks the driver, “Where are you taking those penguins?” The driver answers, “The zoo.” This all makes a lot of sense and the woman doesn’t think much more about it.

      One week later, the woman is walking down the street again and sees the same truck pull up, still full of penguins! She asks the driver, “Wait a minute, I thought you said you were taking those penguins to the zoo??” The driver responds, “Oh yes, and it was lots of fun! This week, we’re going to the beach!”
