The Buzz / Joe Molland, Badfinger Guitarist dies.
« Last post by Clive on March 31, 2025, 09:48 » Joey Molland, guitarist for the group Badfinger, who had continued leading a touring edition of the group decades after other key members had passed on, died Saturday night at age 77.
Badfinger was best known for the late ’60s/early ’70s hits “No Matter What You Do,” “Day After Day,” “Come and Get It” and “Baby Blue.” Molland did not sing lead on the original recordings of those classic songs, but ably took on that duty in concerts for decades to come, touring the band’s catalog and his own solo material on up through the summer of 2024, becoming a cult figure among fans of that era’s music for his good will and enthusiasm in keeping the Badfinger flag flying.

The Laughter Zone / Paddy
« Last post by Den on March 28, 2025, 19:21 »A tad naughty - Paddy is 85 and lives in a Senior Citizens Home. Every night after dinner he goes to a secluded garden behind the home to sit and ponder his accomplishments and long life. One evening, Mary, age 82, wanders into the garden. They begin to chat and before they know it, several hours have passed.
After a short lull in their conversation, Paddy turns to Mary and asks, "Do you know what I miss most of all?"
She asks, "What?''
"Sex." he replies.
Mary exclaims, "Why you old toot. You couldn't get it up if I held a gun to your head!"
"I know," says Paddy, "but it would be nice if a woman could just hold it for a while."
"Well, I can oblige," says Mary, who unzips his trousers, removes his manhood and proceeds to hold it.
Afterward, they agree to meet secretly each night in the garden where they would sit and talk and Mary would hold Paddy's thingie.
Then one night Paddy didn't show up at their usual meeting place.
Alarmed, Mary decided to find him and make sure he was O.K.
She walked around the Senior Citizen Home where she found him sitting by the pool with Ethel, another female resident, who was holding Paddy's's little pal!
Furious, Mary yelled, "You two-timing son-of-a-gun!! What does Ethel have that I don't have?"
Old Paddy smiled happily and replied, "Parkinson's"

The Laughter Zone / Who am I?
« Last post by Den on March 23, 2025, 12:36 »This morning our regular postman Garry was walking through the neighborhood on his usual route, delivering the mail.
As he approaches one of the homes he noticed that both cars were still in the driveway.
His wonder was cut short by John, the homeowner, coming out with a load of empty beer and wine bottles for the recycling bin.
'Wow John, looks like you guys had one hell of a party last night,' Gary commented
John, in obvious pain, replies 'Actually we had it Saturday night. This is the first I have felt like moving since 4:00 am Sunday morning.
We had about fifteen couples from around the neighborhood over for some weekend fun and it got a bit wild.
We all got so drunk around midnight that we started playing WHO AM I.'
Gary thought for a moment and says, 'How do you play WHO AM I?'
'Well, all the guys go in the bedroom and we come out one at a time with a sheet covering us, with only our 'family jewels' showing through a hole in the sheet.
Then the women try to guess who it is.'
Gary laughs and says, 'Sounds like fun. I'm sorry I missed that.'
'Probably a good thing you did,' John responded. 'Your name came up seven times...
Oh Gary no wonder our post is always late eh mate..
