TREFOLOGY AROUND THE TOWN
***
Good news, readers!
***
My ‘Jokes for Kids’ feature
is a hit with the kids!
***
Just this past weekend,
I was dining with
my betrothed at a cafe in
East Hollywood, when a
six year old came up to my
table and said,
“I enjoy your work”
***
Then he asked if I would
sign his copy of Hi-lights
for Children magazine.
***
That was then it hit me.
The kid was confusing me
for another writer!
***
H.F.C. has stubbornly refused
all of my submissions. But —
I didn’t want to disappoint.
***
So, I nodded politely,
and then signed,
“Garry Cleveland Myers”
over the cartoon
Goofus & Gallant
***
Then I finished my meal.
.
Love your work, Geo.
Kind Regards
Robert Fulghum
Thank you, Robert (formally V.C.) I very much appreciate the kind words.

Thank you, David.
When it comes to Jokes for Kids, you’re the G.O.A.T.
That is why I have tin cans tied to the back of my car. Thanks, David.
1. I must have learned more of what I need to know in kindergarten than in high school or college, because I only remember what I learned in kindergarten.
2. Thanks to Mary Cellini for validating the anti-gravity zoo, I thought I was only dreaming.
3. Congraualtions to your betrothed, Mr. Myers, from a big kid who enjoys your work, Bill Watterson
1. On my first day of kindergarten, when the kids learned my name, they began a chorus of “Hey, there Georgie-girl!”. I definitely remember that. I recall too, how I once was made to stay after class because I refused to draw my 4’s anyway but the way that was on the wall clock, which I preferred. I guess I was stubborn.
2. I shall pass on your words to the artist, Ms. Cellini
3. Nice to meet you Mr. Watterson, I am a great fan of Funky Winkerbean.
1. So, in what grade did they start calling you Boy George?
2. Ms. Cellini’s anti-gravity zoo has taken pride of place in my den. Not lion.
3. Funky would autograph your napkin, if Hobbes hadn’t been hungry. Uh-oh, now he’s eyeing anti-gravity zoo. Gotta go. .
If I were Garry Cleveland Myers,
I’d sue you for all you could pay….
Unless i didn’t know of your forgery,
In which case, I’d sue you anyway.
:D
Thanks, Mistermuse, though I think, these days, it is referred to as the Garry Cleveland Myers estate, though I am quite certain they love when people impersonate GCM.
LOL! Congratulations on your betrothal!
Haha Thank you, but, unfortunately, we have already broken up. It seems my betrothed was under the impression I was Garry Cleveland Myers, too.
Oh, no! As mermaids say, there are other fish in the sea. :D
Floating lions are a memorable life lesson.
At the San Francisco zoo they keep the anti-gravity lions on a long piece of twine so they do not float out to sea. It has happened before, I saw it with my own eyes!
Haha. Lucky, lucky kids!
Just realized that when you mentioned driving down “Sunset” in my blog (about the dog smacking cat) and now mentioning in East Hollywood…you’re just across the “pond” from me! If either the hills or the 405 freeway was a pond, that is. Howdy, neighbor.
Howdy back at you, S!
I never meta meta-poem I didn’t like. If I’m lying, I’m flying. I so loved Highlights magazine. We gifted a subscription (seriously!) most recently – to our granddaughter.
To this day, if the dentist office has a copy I will read it. Thanks, Cha.
Same here.
U made the kids day.
On that day I truly was Gallant.
I many like your beautiful blog. A pleasure to come stroll on your pages. A nice discovery. I will come back to visit you. Do not hesitate to visit my universe. See you soon.
Thanks, Angelilie. That is nice of you to say.
love it <3 xoxo
Xoxo back at you. Thanks, Carol anne
You should have told the little guy,”You know nothing about my work”
