The other side of Kokomo

18 Sep 08:  Well...my concern that my coffee parody might be spreading farther across the internet than I intended seems to have been misplaced.  Or at least if it IS spreading, it has so far failed to show up on anything that would easily turn up in a google search.  Talk about mixed feelings....   Speaking of which, here's one that reflects my first impressions upon moving to the Dallas area...

This was taken by my brother during a visit to downtown Dallas.  They say that the key to business is location, location, location; but I wonder if they really intended to locate, locate, locate their product name behind a tree.  Maybe their contract expires before spring; I don't know....  Click on the picture for a bigger view.

So what is a Punnery?

A Tale of Three Jedis

The term "Punnery" comes from a book, Get Thee To a Punnery, by Richard Lederer, which celebrates --surprise, surprise--the pun, and its usage in the English language, and the English language's unusual penchant (or should we say "punchant"?) for supplying them.  A punnery, therefore, is a place where puns are appreciated and nurtured--though to be fair, other forms of humor may also end up on display here, such as the parody and the farce.
