At last week's party, we highlighted that start-the-day superfood, coffee.

This week, we're fondly remembering the late Gene Wilder, who, with his crazy hair and large, round eyes, constantly cracked us up.

Here are my favorite Gene Wilder bits:

Or this:



And this movie cracks me up, but the clips I wanted to post weren't appropriate enough to share, so I'll leave you with this and you can go check it out yourself:




Check this one out, too:



And gosh, this, too.  Such a silly comedic team!




But my all-time favorite Gene Wilder movie is this:


I like myself some Johnny Depp, but nothing beats this original version!

(Hmmm...might be time to introduce Gv to Wonkavision...)

The featured post for Syncopated Mama this week is........




Timothy (aka Agent 54) never fails to crack me up with his funny posts, but this one, called "Baldness Rules," was especially hilarious.  I loved his insanely high SPF number - G learned this the hard way one summer when he thought it'd be a good idea to completely shave his head for our month of camping... 


Now, the new stuff!
