That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for March 21, 2025

/// Tears well up as her oversized eyes

view the artist she’s come to despise.

He is making a mockery

of the child’s fractured crockery.

Over needlessly spilt milk Jill cries.

Tommy, were you playing with my jugs again?

It’s unpleasant when elephants trample /

your carefully stored urine sample:/

But the lab techs agree/

that six days of pee/

Is certainly more than ample.

That was some strong coffee!

Dear Liza, dear Liza. . .

Sorry I lost your urine sample.

“You said that this is brand new, from the finest jug maker in the land.”

Someone must have passed a really hard kidney stone…

“Guess this means the end of Happy Hour.”

Early signs of ‘crackpots’ in the family.

My sister right after ignoring her request to stop playing ball around her.

Julienne’s dreams of joining a jug band had been literally shattered.

Another victim falls foul of Andrew Wyke’s ‘Puzzle Jug’.

You’d have to have seen the movie ‘Sleuth’ (1972) to get the reference!

I’m really not surprised there a few comments above mentioning ‘’urine samples’‘. She has the exact same look as the nurse has when she hands you the cup and says, ’’Be sure to wash your hands before and after.’’

Although Tiffany was the most junior support technician at the village pottery company, she quickly the root cause of issue the customer stated as “When I try to boil water with this jug it just seems to evaporate really quickly before I can use it”.

(Work sometimes referred to as ‘birth of the customer service face’)

You have a really hard head. I busted my largest jug over it and it didn’t even phase you.

You paid 99 cents for this. Now you expect me to walk 8 miles just to take it back?

Poor girl, hasn’t got a pot to pi$$ in.

Seriously! You could have told me there was crack in it before I filled it.

SOLSTICE*1947 and CALL ME ISMAEL: Excellent poetry my friends. Keep it coming. Stay safe and healthy.

Will the relief pitcher give her relief? Will he/she scratch her itch? Enquiring minds want to know.

Naughty girl … she tried to hide her condition… and then her water broke.

“If you still want to try anything after getting bopped over the head, wanna see what I can do with these sharp edges?”

“honest, the bottom just fell out without warning”

Jill’s first modeling gig for Tupperware® was a smashing success!

Lisa learns about “you broke it you buy it”.

Yeah, um, about these new economic policies……

“Nice one, Greg! Now YOU get to tell Mom why the floor is all wet!”

“Now I see why they call that wine Rotgut”

“You told me I could have great jugs!”

“Look at all the [REDACTEDS] I give.”

“Ewer kidding me?”

You should see the other guy.

A pitcher is worth a thousand words?

Geez – I was just “standing my ground”..

“You’re the one that said you wanted the cream so fresh, it was still kicking”.

S’Ok… got a bottle of Jaegermeister

Bed, BATH AND FILL IN THE BLANK.

“Ha ha — go get some water — very funny”

For Monday:

Easy to see why the chicks dig him !

“How serendipitous – ‘reverse cowgirl’ is exactly the position I was applying for!”

She’d been hoping to pay her tuition/

by working beside a physician:/

She was pleased to discover/

that he’d just lost a lover/

who had shared her favourite position..
