Product Information

Howler” is a British word. A Howler is a kind of blunder. A Howler is like, but not the same as, other members of the blunders family. The blunders family includes bloomers, bloopers, breaks, bulls, flubs, fluffs, gaffes, and similar words, each slightly different. Compared to some other members of the blunders family, the word Howler is relatively young. Throwing is fundamental to a multitude of sports and activities. If kids can throw reasonably well, they can participate in everything from frisbee and football to baseball and bocce. As this funny KidSport video shows, knowing how to throw could even save someone’s life. If you think a little friendly competition will enhance your child’s interest, keep score – one point for every throw that goes in the box. If you are throwing with your left hand, turn sideways 90 degrees to your left (reposition your feet so you are standing sideways to your target).

The humour in a Howler depends on the reader or listener possessing relevant knowledge. For example, to understand the humour in the Winston Churchill “v-sign” quote, you need to picture the gesture that the maker of the Howler had in mind. Winston Churchill’s v-sign started as two fingers pointing skyward with palms facing in. When he discovered the gesture was offensive to the working class, Churchill changed the gesture to palms facing out. Above all, the humour in a Howler must be unconscious. The humour cannot be deliberate or concocted. Eclipses are of 3 kinds: an annual eclipse comes once a year, a partial eclipse goes on the part of the time only, but a total eclipse lasts forever.
