Parental Advice

Clipart image of a rabbit.

My dad took me aside and said “Sonny,
You should write about cute, fluffy bunnies,
With your crass innuendos,
And hollow crescendos.”
Just a pity that rabbits ain’t funny!

Divorced, grown/flown daughter. In life, I designed IT systems, taking a career break as a bicycle mechanic, until interrupted by a stroke in 2016, aged 48. As I convalesced, I combined the development of health-related apps with voluntary work, and began writing. After a stint working again in IT, I now write full-time, and use my blog space to let my hair down.

  1. Rabbits are indeed funny. Well, peculiar. Which the likes of Bumper and Hobbs craftily massage with humor to prose. For instance, rabbits determined ruminants’ habit of belching-up (regurgitating) food to be re-chewed gross, so they devised a different way to maximize nutrient intake. (Look that one up. Brings new meaning to the slur, “eat shit.”) If you can’t humorize that, I’m the tooth faerie. Slick’n, sir. (Slick – neat, cool, clever, etc)
