Coneheads beware!
In honor of the approaching end of hurricane season, my goat and I would like to talk about cones.
Those of you who watch the weather reports religiously (I’m looking in the direction of my fellow Floridians now) know all about the Cone of Uncertainty. We won’t be seeing that for a few more months, so we’ll have to watch out for some other cones to monitor.
My dog has a skin condition which makes him itch terribly. To keep him from chewing himself raw we stick him in the Cone of Despair. Don’t stick your hand in there, or biting may occur!
I prefer the Cone of Happiness, which is usually filled with ice cream, possibly dipped in chocolate, and always full of goodness.
Another possibility is the Cone of Debauchery, which is full of gin and vermouth (don’t forget the olives!).
We can kick it 80s style and bring back the Cone(s) of Madonna or wrap the Eiffel Tower in paper to make the Cone de France.
My goat is always equipped with Cones of Defense, but we’re open to any more suggestions you faithful readers out there may have.
Ice cream Cones are great to monitor. The real Coneheads are from France.
