I’ll give it a shot…
Consider me a test subject…I’m not sure all my comments are getting through anyway.
Occasionally they don’t unscreen when I unscreen them. If I miss one, yours or anyone’s, and you haven’t said anythign CONTROVERSIAL, send it again. . . .

You have opened my Pandora’s Box with jokes.
While in Hawaii (Yes, I know it’s a hard lot, but some one has to help their economy) I noticed that their geckos laugh. A delightful chittering sort of laugh. Our geckos in south Florida do not laugh. At least none have done so within my hearing. It was decided that the problem was south Florida geckos do not have proper jokes and need a joke book. So, those of us (all women) on the workshop I was attending decided to see what we could do. Here you are, suitable, I think, for grandchildren, assuming they can catch the daft humor.
GECKO JOKES FROM HAWAII (or at least inspired by Hawaii)
A gecko is in a restaurant and calls the waiter over.
“Waiter, there’s a fly in my poi.” (or ‘soup’ for the mainland people)
“Yes, sir?”
“My compliments to the chef!”
————
How many geckos does it take to change a light bulb?
As many as want dinner.*
————
Why did the gecko cross the road?
Because there wasn’t a ceiling.*
————
A gecko turns to a frog and says,
“Time sure is fun when you’re having flies!”*
————
A priest, a rabbi, and a gecko walk into a bar.
The bartender says,
“What is this?! A joke?!”**
————
*For those of you ignorant of the ways of geckos, they hang out around lights at night, usually on walls and ceilings, and catch bugs to eat.
**This is the one I was dying to create. I mean, really: “A priest, a rabbi, and a gecko go into a bar…” I HAD to find a punch line for it!
Woo hoo, thanks Karen! Let’s see how it works.
Thank you, BlogMom. Now all I have to do is remember to check the little box…
But that’s my problem.
Great! Thank you for setting this up!
It works beautifully! Thank you!

Here’s a test of e-mail system. About roses for the prairie–mine were rugosas and some from the Canadian Explorer series. If I ever get to put in a full-sun rose bed (on my list of things to do, but not first priority), I’ll put more of them in and I’m sure they will do much better without any shade at all. (And no competition from trees and other plantings.) Good luck with Enigma!
Another tester here: bells were tolling all day long in Athens, as it was good Friday. They reminded me of Robin, even though I am well aware this is nothing like change ringing
I got other comments now, so it does work. Congratulations!

Yesterdays cooking post was great. I found the housewarming present for my daughter’s newly-bought hose there. The cookbook. I’m not a cook, but I’ll be reading it before she gets it. Thanks!
??? I unscreened your last, saying more or less the same thing. Did it not come through? Arrrgh.
