| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JANUARY 2022 | 63 From Courtney Taylor, publisher: I have a confession to make… coming up with the joke every month is HARD. There are boxes that have to be checked: Funny, but not ridiculous - it has to be in the realm of possibility; age-appropriate for the audience - I can't build a joke around midwives for Sun Lakes; clever enough to trick you for a minute but then tipping my hand to show you I'm kidding; and the most important thing - it can't be offensive. That is the hardest one to do as some people are offended by paperclips. I do have to admit, however, I have a twisted sense of humor and am not offended by anything, so that makes it doubly hard. I want to do sporadic secret contest stuff for the new year… this month, the first person to guess my favorite color wins a prize. Email me your guess. Now back to the Get the Joke stuff: To win a free dinner, find the ad, article or just weird, out-of-place, completely made-up (and hopefully funny) item in this month's Lifestyles. When you find it, fill out the box below and (new!) EMAIL IT TO sunlakesnews@yahoo.com before noon on the sixth of the month. If you are the first correct guess chosen at random, you will win a free dinner. Good luck! Congratulations to this month's Dinner Winner: JACK ROBINSON Please call Kelly in the Admin. Office for your Sun Lakes Restaurant dinner. If only they had a lit Christmas Tree or a North Pole Marker, I'd be all over that! Michael C. I'm thinking a bird feeder would be fun just to wear on the back patio! Sharon R. Was planning to come as a City Council Member, but not now. I'll see if they have a skunk costume instead. Victor G. We would love the aardvark and windchime outfit! Jim Z. Great joke. Who would dress up in a fish custom during the holidays? Ron S. Otter Bee a Shark lol. George P. I hope they still have the Big foot costume, because Big foot is in high demand these days Laurie W. Curious about the wind chime! Just the ticket for New Year's! Sue H. your comments: GET THE JOKE!
