Who’s A Jackass?

Moving on to Letter J in the Alphabet Hunt hosted by @barbara-orenya in the Feel Good community...

  • Jackass

Mules are a cross between a female horse and a male donkey (called a jack) therefore getting the name Jackass.

Jackass is sometimes used when describing someone as goofy or silly. If you watch The TV show, Corner Gas, Oscar LeRoy refers to everyone as a Jackass. It’s his signature word throughout the series.

I believe this is a Jackass with his back turned as the horse beside him is the same black and white color and is probably the mother.

A look at the Jackass’s face with his unusual bangs. These were animals I saw while driving by a farm here on the Island.

  • Jackrabbit

Wikipedia - about Jackrabbits,

Hares and jackrabbits are leporids belonging to the genus Lepus. Hares are classified in the same family as rabbits. They are similar in size and form to rabbits and have similar herbivorous diets, but generally have longer ears and live solitarily or in pairs. Also unlike rabbits, their young are able to fend for themselves shortly after birth rather than emerging blind and helpless. Most are fast runners. Hare species are native to Africa, Eurasia and North America.


Jackrabbit in flight. I took these photos this spring after the rabbits fur had turned brown for summer camouflages. There has been a few of these jackrabbits hanging around the yard this year.

  • Jailhouse

The former Queen’s County jailhouse in Charlottetown renovated into a Pizza Delight restaurant. It is a historic building and called the 1911 Jail.

  • Jello

Jello is a gelatin-based dessert often associated with school cafeteria or hospital food and has been around since 1897. The gelatin in it is good for your nails and hair.

I like to make jello dessert once in awhile with added canned fruit and sometimes, a scope of ice cream on top.


  • Jewelry

A bust of Nefertiti I wear around my neck. I’ve had this piece of jewelry since the 70s when the Egyptian exhibition of King Tut (Tutankhamen) was displayed in Toronto, Canada.

I was living near Toronto at the time and it seemed everyone was interested in all things Egypt from King Tut to pyramid power.

  • Joanne/Joanna/Jo

Since my name starts with a J I will include it. When I was born my father wanted me called Joanna after a favorite aunt of his and I was called Joanna by everyone. When I got older and saw my birth certificate it was Joanne. My mother had put Joanne on the birth document.

I’ve had many nicknames over the years with Jo, Rusty and Red and now I guess I’d be Goldie.:)

During the pandemic I’ve been crocheting a few things Just for fun and made myself a sun hat.


D24BA2DF69A14BBBB2F3BE868FAC6C8E.jpeg


Believe me, I tried to take a JO selfie with the iPad but Sunday cat wanted me to pay attention to him and gave me an affectionate paw. It’s darn near impossible to take a photo with a cat on your lap.

Now, that I see your words I remember that on my rides I often see some Jackasses at a farm aside the road and I also have a few photos of Jackrabbits from last year. You know that I have the same Jewelry, except mine is smaller if you remember ;)

I love the way you have made the Joanne/Joanna/Jo selfies - great idea. I have to remind that just in case I wanna make one too one day in the future 😉

Very good hunt for the J's, Jo, I enjoyed reading and seeing your photos 😊

Have a great day and a wonderful weekend.

Good morning @gingbabida 🌞

And exactly there's the problem:
I don't want my face to be online.

Since 1993 I'm in the Internet, I've had a few businesses besides my regular fulltime job and also several websites.
During the past 27 years I have quite successfully managed to not have a recognizable photo of me stored anywhere in the Internet. Since everybody posts all kinds of Selfies it has become a challenge for me to do the opposite and be one of the few people who has never posted a Selfie anywhere 😁

Before you ask, I wear a little golden bust of Queen Nefertiti around my neck. Nefertiti means "the Beauty has arrived". Someone who is wearing the Beauty cannot look that bad - ask my good friend Jo @redheadpei, she is wearing the same bust 😄

Sorry for that long reply, but I have just got out from bed and have coffee on the balcony ... and I have some spare time and felt like it 😁

I wish you a wonderful weekend 🌞

I did see farms, with lots of animals, on the bike ride to the mountain.

Amazing you are the only one I know that also has the Nefertiti. I was complimented on it the other day. A sales lady said she liked it and had I been to Egypt.

It was fun making the selfie. It all just came together when Sunday wouldn’t get off my lap and wanted attention.

Thanks Johann for your kind comments, rehive,tip and generosity .😉

Have a wonderful day.❤️

I was so lucky that there were no other bikes or cars on the way up or down, because the parking lot on the peak was full of cars. So I could make the video without anybody else disturbing it 😉

Maybe one of the other Hivers who see your post will tell you they have the same Nefertiti hanging on their neck, but I don't think so, because yours were the first one I have seen since I bought mine.

You were brave to make a selfie, although Sunday helped you ... I just got an idea what I could do when our new kittens arrive in a few weeks time, but they are so small ;) lol

So, this was my last reply until the evening I think.
My working day is almost over and the gray clouds are making place for the blue sky. Maybe I'll have a chat with my family if they need me this afternoon, but I don't think so, they never need me ;) lol

You have a wonderful day too, Jo 🙂

It was a great highway to make a video. I was wondering how you managed to hold the camera and drive or was it a attached somehow?

Sunday had to help me make the selfie or I couldn’t do it. P will come up soon. 😉

Actually in your video I saw a shadow of you.😊

No rain here yet but today was too bad. Maybe I’m just getting climatized to the heat.😆 I was in Charlottetown most of the day.

I’m sure your family needs you a lot Johann. Just having twins would keep you smiling all day.

Have a wonderful weekend and be careful on those winding roads. 😊

Good morning Jo 😄

My camera is attached to my helmet. You can see it on the right side in the Video.

You have seen a shadow of me? Damn 🙃😉 I was just before explaining to @gingbabida why I don't make Selfies, but I guess a shadow does not count 😁 I'll have to think for something when we hunt the P😉

We have a blue sky, my family still sleeps and I have a coffee on the balcony. If I didn't have to wait for the buyer of my son's bike I'd already be on the road 😁

I'm quite sure I couldn't get used of too much heat, so I hope you have a nice and not too hot weather and enjoy the weekend, Jo 😀🌞

Afternoon Johann. I'm sure you will think of something funny for a selfie. It’s fun to tease about it.🤣 You should have your kittens soon.😸

Having a coffee and relaxing on the balcony sounds like a lovely way to start the day.

This morning is starting out warm but the air conditioner is keeping the house nice. It is in a room where it can blow into the bedroom without it blowing directly on you when sleeping.

I have all the blinds closed and the cats don’t like it as they want to look out the windows.

Have a wonderful weekend Johann and hope you get to go on a ride.😊

Good afternoon Jo,

right, I will think of something ... or forget it 😉

We have very beautiful weather, but it's not too hot, and our window blinds are closed too 😁

They came a few minutes after my reply this morning and later I went for a ride around the lake, but it was not real fun, because there was so much traffic, just as in any other Summer - mostly stop and go riding.
After lunch I have gone for another ride away from the tourists, and that was much better 😁

I hope your weather cools down just a bit that you can open the blinds for the cats 😄

Oh no, you can’t back out now without giving us a small peek of something. 😉

It’s 32 C on the back deck which faces the south. This evening when it cools would be a nice time to take a walk on a beach. Panmure Island beach is about 15 min. vehicle drive from the house. I’m sure it is crowded this afternoon with all the sunbathers.

I was able to open a window blind for the cats after the sun went around but they don’t give a darn now- they’ve having a catnap.🐱

It was great you got a peaceful ride without all the traffic.

Have a lovely evening Johann.😊

Lol, we'll see 😉

It is 9:25 and we have 24 C - it is a nice evening which will end in a few minutes, because I need some sleep.

At 5 in the morning we meet at a friend's house, because it's his 50th birthday and at 7 I should be at work. This is going to be a hard Sunday 😴

I hope the night cools down for you, you have a good sleep after a nice walk at the beach, and a wonderful Sunday, Jo 😀

It would be difficult to party hardy that early. Will it be good wishes with coffee and breakfast?🍰

It has cooled down this evening and there is talk of rain tomorrow on the news. A good rain is needed.

It was nice at the beach and I got home in time to watch Ancient Aliens. 👽

I hope your day goes by pleasantly tomorrow Johann.😊

Good morning Jo,

I'm sitting here fighting the sleep 😉 lol

Yes, we have had a nice party and our friend was quite surprised, because we have been almost 20 people there. We had coffee and ham&eggs and later some !BEER of course 😉 I think the party is still going on, because my wife hasn't phoned me yet that she's back home.

It's great that it cooled down and you had a nice beach walk, and if it rains today everything should be fine, so I think I should better wish you a rainy Sunday 😉

I like to watch such series like Ancient Aliens or any other Science Fiction series and movies.

Happy Monday Johann! I’m amazed 20 people managed to rise so early in the morning for a party - the birthday boy must be someone special. Nice to be treated to breakfast.☕

Finally it started a nice soft rain last night and still going on this morning. The rain cooled everything down and I see the robins are happy as the ground is now softer for them to find worms.

Have a great week Johann,😊

Most welcome @gingbabida. Yes the rabbits here have a natural protection with their fur turning white in winter to match the snow and changing to brown to camouflage for summer.🐇

That is super amazing! 😍 I've never heard of such before. I don't think the rabbits here change colors. (Not that I know. 😬) Maybe because we only have two seasons here--hot and hotter? 😂🙃😬 Thank you for this info @redheadpei. 😉

I just love your entries Jo!! The Jackrabbits may be scarce cause there is a rabbit disease RHDV in some areas. I don't know if it is there and I hope not. I also know rabbits have a lot of predators so possibly the foxes are getting them. Your photos of them are so cute and you know I do love the animal photos. I would love to have lunch in that old jailhouse and that jello looks refreshing. Sunday is too funny but adorable also. Beautiful job on the sun hat pretty lady!! 🙂 💞

I haven’t heard of the jackrabbits here getting the disease Dee but none of the rabbits are as plentiful as they used to be.

If you lived closer we could have lunch in that old jailhouse. There is even a casino downstairs in it for a bit of fun if one is so inclined.

Sunday is very affectionate and thinks I am suppose to pay attention to him a lot of the time. I tell Wayne these cats are so demanding I might as well have a second husband. LOL

Thanks so much Dee and have a wonderful weekend.❤️

You're very welcome Jo! I only know about the disease cause my daughter shows rabbits. Many shows in certain areas cancelled due to it before this whole covid thing. It isn't in our state as far as I know but she has lost so many rabbits from a different rabbit ailment. It's been very hard on her but it is what it is. 😢 People have been seeing more coyotes around too. I knew they were in a nearby park but I would be scared to see one too close.
That would be a highlight for me to have lunch with you there Jo! If I ever get to visit PEI then it's a date! 💖
Lol..too funny Jo! 😂

Coyotes have their routes and probably come by here sometimes and clean out everything they can catch. I carry a walking stick if I go into the forest myself but I haven’t seen any. I do love seeing the foxes and the rabbits are part of their foods too.

It would be difficult for your daughter to lose ones she raised to the rabbit ailments. You have shown us some of her beautiful bunnies.🐇

Yes we would definitely have lunch Dee.

Have a wonderful weekend. ❤️

Thanks Melinda. I’m happy your liked the hat. It was sort of an experiment but worked out alright.

The Jackass does have great bangs. I’ve probably watched every episode of Corner Gas. It is filmed in Saskatchewan and there always seems to be a rerun on in the afternoon or evening.

Have a wonderful weekend.❤️

Jackass has the most gorgeous face and curly top hairdo, never seen one so this is a first!

Jack rabbit looks tall like the African Hare to see them you do need a powerful torch some run immediately, on the odd occasion some stop and stare at the light allowing you to see their size. Scrub Hare and Cape Hare another two I have heard of when seeing them they never stay long enough to identify.

It's all in the name Jo, sometimes our parents do like to change the spelling slightly, it's yours along with many nicknames.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Jackass was quite the fashion plate with his curly top.😄. The rabbits here around the yard are not too afraid of me.. Sometimes I can get quite close. It’s nice to see them nibbling at grass and clovers in the lawn.

True we don’t have much choice in our name but it’s ours.

I hope you are enjoying the day Joan.❤️

Rabbits on a verge the other day made me look out the car twice to check I wasn't seeing things, they must be pets to folk. They are a lot smaller, hopefully the owner realized they had strayed since dogs will kill them, someone may steal them for the pot.
