  1. I might write a story.
  2. One of my many jobs was that of a maintenance man at a hotel. I would be called to a room to unplug a toilet or fix the phone or TV. If I ever got a different call, I don't remember it. I was much happier when I was called to an empty room because I could go in with my passkey and not have to deal with hotel guests who were usually drunk and/or surly.
  3. Serious Marmot is quite serious. It's a good thing he's not a lot bigger.
  4. You have to know them to understand, but they do. When they are missing someone, they look for them, call for them, and wait for them in their usual places. After a while, somehow they know their person isn't coming back, and it's heartbreaking to watch.
  5. Ben Stein did deadpan brilliantly.
  6. Max: Don't buy your reds from those guys. Red Head: You mean phenobarbital ? Max (laughing): Yeah, sure, but nobody on the streets calls it that. Me, I keep it simple. I just drink wine and smoke weed. Too many people who trip on reds don't come back.
  7. When a lawyer is smiling, you're about to get reamed.
  8. Classification of Igneous Rocks
  9. Mom passed away Wednesday Aug 30. I have been busy writing an obituary and making arrangements. I’m OK. It will take some time.
  10. This song is so eighties, it has a muzak video.
  11. Anyone remember Bewitched? Gladys Kravitz was a very busybody.
  12. Potassium iodine pills are used to treat short-term radiation exposure by preventing fallout uptake by the thyroid. They are a necessity in any fallout shelter.
  13. This is a painting by my Mom. It's not her best, but it's my favorite. She had a cat during the eighties that was the sweetest tabby I've ever met. His name was Redd. She said that cat posed for her. She was painting the teddy bears, but Redd had other ideas. This was the result.
  14. My Mom is in hospice care. I'm glad someone else is doing it because I just couldn't. I'm going to lose her, but in truth, she's already gone. I keep going to her bedside and reading to her. She smiles. I know she hears me. It won't be long now. She has Dysphagia, an inability to swallow, and is losing weight rapidly. If I vanish for a while, I have much to do.
  15. Egregious corruption covered by secrecy and legalism was a key contributing factor to the “Reign of Terror” during the French Revolution. Perhaps we are in need of a politician whopper-chopper with a cute little basket to catch liberated heads. VIva la whopper-chopper!
  16. @wildoneEverybody knew someone like Beavis & Butthead in middle skool. That's why that whole gag works so well.
  17. When speaking to the FBI, too much candor might land you in Leavenworth.
  18. I'm thinking super-hero movies have about run their course.
  19. In the crucible of combat, too many callow soldiers never become experienced soldiers.
  20. I like to garner redheads.
  21. Henpeck is the archaic form of the modern term Karen. Of course, the modern form is a broader term than the original, which usually kept their bitching at home targeting their husbands. The modern Karen will speak to anybody's manager and give them a piece of their tiny minds.
  22. I have a complex because of meatloaf. As a kid, I hate, hate, hated the wretched stuff. Whenever my Mom made it, she would get mad at me because I'd give it to the dog who wouldn't eat it either. Now, when I see or hear of meatloaf, I think my Mom is mad at me. For goodness’s sake! If you've got the ingredients for meatloaf, make lasagna, meatballs or hamburgers out of it. Meatloaf suuuuuuuxxxxx!
