The Monkey and a plywood violin

Hmmm
Whatever about Fred's Mom, by the look of that last pic of Fred, I'd say that whoever's holding him has a pretty good idea of his measurements. (Sorry Mary, I know it's tough to see your little guy grow up so soon, but hey that's rock and roll)
And here's a suggestion for the T shirt ,how about "I'm not your man, I'm your monkey." ?

Hi Bill's Bar,

I love the suggestion for the t-shirt! "I'm not your man, I'm your monkey"! Also, the other suggestion "I'm your fan" from A.Sukitu was good too. As it will be a small t-shirt though, perhaps there won't be enough room for everything. Oh! The light comes on . "I'm not your man" on the front and "I'm your monkey" on the back!

Ya see Di, there's a solution to every problem,..... well nearly. And it's a good one.

And Mary, you're looking for more puns...........?
Have ya not been PUNished enough with them already.

Never enough Tony. I'm a glutton for PUNishment

Edit - how could I forget to put 'Mother'

Leonard's wonderful, regular guy side really comes through in this. If he's attached to memories, this one with him and Irving holds a special place in his heart. I love how they were laughing together and Leonard at himself. Really precious. Thank you SO much for bringing it here, Relate. If we can somehow manage it, in so many ways, a banana is such the perfect gift for Leonard... even if he chooses not to take a bite from it 'til intermission or at the end of the show.

I love the t-shirt idea A.Sukitu and, all things considered, I like Diana's front/back idea best. Mary ~ I think the pig latin version would be "Ejay antway elay ananabay" ~ with your Frenglish included .

Haha... just read your just-posted when I tried to post mine, MotherMary. Yes, some things are simply meant to remain private, or shared only on a "Need to Know" basis. Good on you for protecting your son from exploitation.

How about 'Je wantay le banana' . Am I close or is that pig latin . As you see, I am a woman of many languages .

Mary, I'm SO impressed! I didn't know you were bilingual

BTW - 'Where, where is my gypsy' son today? All this talk of bananas and dressing Fred (when you know I prefer to 'see him naked in his body') has gotten me sidetracked. Thank you all for keeping my mind occupied while my son is MIA. We need something, another picture perhaps , just to let us know he is okay. We will meet your ransom demands!

Worried regards,
Mother Mary

I liked Esther's idea about the polka dotted blouse. I thought if we were to wear polka dotted blouses to concerts it would be easier for Fred and Leonard and the Band to spot us in the audience and Maybe catch our eye. I may be spot off on this one.

I hope it's not his head they're dancing with on the threshing floor.
Leonard might have to rework another song from that album, and call it The Ballad of the absent monkey.

[lizzytysh]

"Spot off," eh, Pam ? Never heard that form of it. Not sure if you made it up or it actually exists on its own. I like it, though. Will you be wearing a polka dot blouse ? Which one will Leonard focus on if we all do it. We'll have him looking all over the room and all the way back to Row N. The longer Leonard keeps touring, the closer he's going to feel like he's in a house of mirrors, with props from all his songs filling the auditoriums .

We wouldn't want to make him dizzy - the boss don't like these dizzy heights, you know!

It was a long bus ride with an early morning border crossing to Seattle the other day so I got some rest. My "friend" who types for me was getting ready to post some more photos last night but he fell asleep!

I'm getting some rest in this photo.

Time to wake up!

I like looking out the window as we travel around. I wonder if I should continue with the tour this summer?
