Categotry Archives: Jack and Jill
Family
Uncle Bill: Left hand red Uncle Bill: Right foot green Uncle Bill: Shut up, you guys, I’m the one spinning the dial here. Left foot yellow. Uncle Bill: Right hand blue. No, I mean the other blue. Well, try sticking it down in there at an angle, Jack. Yah wuss. Jill: I don’t think I can take much more of this, Uncle Bill. Uncle Bill: Just do as I say and it’ll be perfect. Left foot purple. Jack: (Grumbling) There […]
Used To It
This is an in-joke for people who followed my Jack and Jill series over this summer. For those of you who missed it, Jack and Jill’s dog, Tonic, got switched for one that is smarter, but strange. This alarmed them for a while, but now they are used to it. Jill: Oh no! Jack: Is it contagious? Today’s theme is upside down Previously in Jack and Jill The Lamp: a Shaggy Dog Story Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for […]
The Lamp: A Shaggy Dog Story
Jack: Huh. I wonder what’s wrong with this lamp. It keeps turning on and off by itself. Jack: Must be a short in the extension cord. I’ll track it down. Jack: Gah! Jill, what do you think you’re doing? Today’s theme is electric Previously in Jack and Jill Mud Bath Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for Photohunt can be found here.

Skulking
Jill: Oh no you don’t, Tonic. I can see your feet. I know what you’re up to. So just forget it. I’m not going to fall for that again. Gin: Weow??? Gin: Meow!!

Mud Bath
Last week, when the theme was “ripple”, I did a set up that looked a bit like this: . . . . You can see the details here. The long and short of it is that I left Jack and Jill staring into a cup full of something that is moving. This week the theme is Surprise. And here’s what made the stuff in the cup (pudding) wiggle: . . . . Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for Photohunt […]
Discovery
Jack: Huh? What’s that? Jack: Darling?! What’s this you’ve got on the table? Jill: Don’t look at me. I’ve never seen anything like it. Jack: Does it seem like it’s moving to you? Jill: Yeah, like that scene in Jurassic Park where the T-rex is walking up and the glass in the cup holder gets waves. Jack: Oh, no. No, no, no, it’s nothing like that. Jill: but Jack: Nothing doing. Don’t even think it. Come back next week for […]
Artificial
Today’s theme is Artificial. Need I say more? Today’s theme is artificial Previously in Jack and Jill Limbo Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for Photohunt can be found here. Be sure to visit the home page.
Limbo
Jill: Ah-ah-ah, Jack. I see your hand touching. Jack: It’s not fair. If it weren’t for his tail, Tonic wouldn’t make it. Jill: Don’t be cheap, Dear. Today’s theme is low Previously in Jack and Jill Catching the Show Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for Photohunt can be found here. Be sure to visit the home page.
Catching the Show
Jill: Lord above, what now? Is Tonic teaching Gin to walk on her hind legs? Jack: Yep. Jill: I knew it was a mistake to keep him. Jack: Don’t go blaming the dog. I put him up to it. Jill: You?! What ever for? Jack: Entertainment. The TV is broken. Today’s theme is utensils Previously in Jack and Jill Learning Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for Photohunt can be found here.

Learning
Jill: I don’t know, Jack. Seems like ever since the real Tonic got switched with this other dog, that’s all we ever thing about. Jack: Yeah, you’re right. We’ve been worrying too much about him. I think we need to just get on with our lives. Jill: But how can we when he does everything different. I mean, look at him now. Jack: (mumbling) he has better table manners than I do. Jill: I don’t even remember giving him a […]
Trashed
Jill: Watch out! All the animals will get out! Jack: Aaaaa, too late. (whack) Jill: Quick, Tonic! Catch him! Jack: (crash) Jill: Great. Right in the trash. Jack? Are you all right? Do you need help out? Jack: No, I got it. Jill: Hey, what’s that in the trash behind you? Jack: (long pause) An airline ticket to Cabo San Lucus. Today’s theme is garbage Previously in Jack and Jill In the Pink Saturday photo scavenger hunt The rules for […]
Temptation
Jill: Tonic? Where are you going? Jill: No, no! Don’t eat some stranger’s cream. She’ll be angry if she comes home and finds it gone. Jack: At least we know she isn’t planning on being gone long if she left some cream out. Jill: Tonic! Get away from there. Wait, What did you find? Jack: Oh. Jill: The house key. Should we use it? Today’s theme is creamy. Yes, I took liberties. Previously in Jack and Jill Anybody Home? Saturday […]
Anybody Home?
Jill: Are you sure this is the right address? Jack: Yes I’m sure. She said on the phone she’d be here now so we could trade the dogs back. I can’t be sure, but I think I see a couple of dogs in there. Jill: You know, maybe we shouldn’t trade them back anyway. I mean, this Tonic is strange, but I think he might be smarter than our Tonic. Jack: Of course we want to get our Tonic back. […]
Switched
Jack: Jill! Jill, look at this. This ad for a missing dog. Jill: Thin. Blue with white spots. Purple collar. Purple collar! Could it be? Jack: He has been acting strangely since we got him back from that woman. Jill: Yeah, like walking on water. Jack: Not to mention on his hind legs. Jill: And eating at the table. Jack: And he hardly ever sits still anymore. Jill: OMG! Jack and Jill: Tonic isn’t Tonic!!! . This will make more […]
Climbing
Jack: Hey, Darling. Let’s go climbing. We haven’t been out in the woods in ages. Jill: I’m not in the mood. The only kind of wood I want to see right now is the kind they mash up and turn into a book. Jack: Books, huh? I know just the place.
