My life is a shambles, my wife has left me, the cat sits in a corner growling, my colleagues avoid me, and all because I wander the halls muttering things like "kings of Germany?..nonono…kinds of grain? …can’t be… maybe it’s not ‘k of g in’, but rather ‘k of gin!’ … kilos of gin in a finely prepared drink! …that’s just dumb… dopers will laugh at me for that one… :😭: …someone please help me… hey, hey Jim! What words do you know that start with…Jim! whereyougoinman? …hello, is this the library? I’m trying to figure out…hello?
