#11 Punny Monday Missing: Blame It On …
… Easter, my new writing assignment, or both. Just don’t blame it on me! 😉
Here’s a bit of an irregular Punny Monday — up for those of you who need your fix. I photographed this fella out on our deck this morning. Does anybody know who he is? (The answer is a pun.)
You may email your guesses as usual, but since this is a highly irregular Punny Monday, I will not be posting the guesses or the answers until after 5 p.m. PDST. If you aren’t certain what time it is here, check the clock on my blog.

I’m in Anticipation of the correct answer!
Mocha — well, I’ll be keeping you wa-a-a-ting!
Looks like you’ve been able to ketchup on your blogging!
Linda — Heinz is about the only way I can do it!
Well that took some research to find the answer. LOL . Dang Linda took my anticipation answer away from me LOL 🙂
Thom — can you hear my miniature violin playing, “my heart bleeds for you”?
No all I hear is some funky disco music playing from it LOL
No idea. But it’ll be fun finding out!
Thumbelina — hi! It;s been a long time! How are you?!
I’m ok. Nothing personal – life got in the way. I pop into folks’ now and again though and your email reminded me…
I am glad all is well!
Looks like the Fonz has returned as a ketchup packet?! — hope Mr. C doesn’t get too hungry…
LOL
Susan — Fonz n fries.
Apparently I’m no better at this later in the day, either.
Nessa — lol!
He reminded me of the Fonz too. 🙂
Carletta — that’s cuz he’s so cool!
Aaaaaaaaayyyyy! I think I might have this one!
Melli — then you’d best email an answer!
Like Thom, I had to research this a bit! Hadn’t seen this character before.
Barbara — he’s sat on my desk at school for several years. One of my students gave him to me.
fine, i’ll catch a few hours of sleep beforei find out the answer 🙂
(the fella’s a complete stranger to me)
Polona — I’ll see that you get properly introduced a little later.
I tried but can’t think of an answer.
Betty – -it wasn’t an easy puzzle this time!
As usual I don’t know, I have a cousin named Heinz, but he looks different.
Gattina — it’s the flat top hair cut, isn’t it?
I haven’t got a clue this week.
Bill — no Heinz Ketchup in Canada? Or no ketchup packets?
We have all that here, I am just Brain Dead at the moment. Now I get it where I’ve seen the answer.
Not a clue here, but it sure is cute!
Karen — he is, isn’t he? No wonder all the french fries sizzle for him.
All right missy, it’s 6:00 on the west coast. Forget making ketchup – we’ll start throwing rotten tomatoes if we don’t see the answer soon! 🙂
Amoeba wanted a snack after work & before play rehearsal. Dinner must wait because if he eats his dance step is too weighty. 😉
Who is it? was the question. This was in commemoration of jazz musician Earl Hines who was from Heinz’ home town, and riffed on the whole 57 varieties thing. Sigh. Oh well, I’ll go listen to some old jazz and feel better.
Kelley — and the answer is Heinz, the Leader of the Packets. I am sure your trivia lesson is correct, but it didn’t come with the doll nor is it on the Heinz website.
I truly believe my answer was totally correct. :/
Amanda — in your universe it is. Unfortunately we are playing the game in my universe. Alas. 😉
Sigh.
Heinz-sight is always 20/20!
Linda — my condiments on the excellent pun!
Some of your wanna-be punsters could be ad writers! 🙂
Oh, and congrats, Thom!
I agree Barbara and thanks. 🙂
.
I sort of like Linda’s. But Quilly, I failed to understand why your “sayings” is a pun. It doesn’t seem to fit any of the definitions, types, or examples that are in my pun book
Oh well, “don’t argue with the teacher” (or author?) so they say. My very intelligent entry isn’t a pun either. 🙂
..
Yes, congrats to Thom!
..
Thank you 🙂
WOOT!!! My name is in lights. Q I think the Wannabes had great answers, but alas, as you say we are in your universe so we have to travel around the solar system in your contraption. 🙂
Amanda needs an honorable mention LOL
CONGRATULATIONS THOM!!!
There but for the grace of 25 minutes go I (you big cheater) !
😛
