15 Minute Lunch

15 Minute Lunch

http://15minutelunch.blogspot.com

I notice funny stuff. I write about the funny stuff I notice. Sometimes, I write about my ridiculous childhood, or my ridiculous job. I've been compared to Dave Barry. I'm a little raunchier and much poorer than he is, however. Stop by.

    It's been an interesting week. I was working from home last Friday and while I was in my office, I heard a crashing noise. I was on the phone and figured one of the cats had knocked something over, so I didn't think much about it.About a half hour la...

    Are all eye-doctors a little crazy? Is there something about spending most of your work day in a dark little room with your face three inches from someone you just met 30 seconds ago that eventually makes you turn into some sort of white-coated psych...

    OK, where were we? Oh yes, Part II. And then we got grounded. The End.No, actually I think we were stumbling drunkenly down the street, heading toward the new construction. We had cracked open two more cans and even though it was a pretty dead subdiv...

    After I wrote that title, I realized it sounds pretty gay but I'm leaving it. Not too long ago, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who has two sons around the ages of 15 and 17. In the course of the conversation, I asked him if either ...

Blah, blah...JC Penney's catalog...

OK..so it was pretty funny. But I still say my favorite line ever is - "Do I LOOK like someone who is well-versed in the contraindications of goat cheese?"

I was once compared to Dave Barry -- but it was by the scary folks at "Ask and You Shall Receiv."

But this isn't about me. It's about the awfully funny blog. Please do read it today!

Crummy Joel just came on to me.....something about the Starland Vocal Band. Anyway, 15 Minute Lunch is about as much fun to read as a bad review for a Joel Schumacher movie.

Dear Johnny,

You might not remember me. I was the girl with the long pink hair and the green spandex bodysuit at the zoo last week screaming your name and something about bloody murder while stuffing cotton candy down my gullet. Remember? And then some TV news camera crew caught me bashing you over the head with an empty cotton candy paper cone until you saw stars?

Well, I just wanted to apologize for getting my facts all wrong about the bloody murder. It wasn't you. It was me. So yeah, sorry about that.

Johnny Virgil's blog is a must-read. If you don't he will hunt you down and kill you, so yah the first sentence pretty much applies.

A 15 minute lunch. Just long enough for some "afternoon delight".

And Johnny provides the BEST afternoon delight of anyone on the internet. Even better than Craigslist.

Johnny grew up in the 70s... *I* grew up in the 70s! It's like we're twins!

Funny funny blog, and the perfect way to spend your 15 minute lunch.

Just because Don Lewis likes this blog is no reason to 'snap to judgement' ... even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Johnny V is a double threat: not only is he very funny, but he's one of the best writers out here.

15 minute lunch is one of the funniest blogs I've seen. I'm not even going to try to leave a funny comment because I can't measure up. This guy's in a funny league all his own.

Dear Mr. Virgil

Being unable to reach you any other way, but knowing that you will find this to be extremely exciting news; it is my great honor to award you with the first ever "It's a Funny Thing...Quality Original Humor Award!" (Steady Johnny! I know how much this must mean to you.) Not only do you appear to be one of the few really funny blog writers out there, but... well, I can't think of anything else, so lets go on.

I note that you don't post any of the many other award badges you've no doubt received, but rest assured, you are now listed on my blog as our first winner, which means not only that you the first award winner underneath the soon-to-be-coveted-I'm-sure award badge, but you now have a direct connection to the 5 or so regular readers that I have. (Deep breaths Johnny, deep breaths).

Anyway, thanks for the oh so enjoyable reads.

Don Lewis
