**Overheard at the first Biden-Trump debate** 1. “I’d say they both could have used a long nap this afternoon.” 2. “I never slept with a porn star.” 3. “Get my broker on the phone. I wanna buy stock in Adderall.” 4. “Where’s Melania? Junior? Ivanka? Eric?? Mary’s here but she’s with Joe.” 5. “Uh, why aren’t the moderators fact-checking?” 6. “Jeez, how _many_ lies can he squeeze into a single debate, anyway?” 7. “If he can beat Medicare, why can’t he beat Trump?” 8. “What did we do to deserve either of these guys as president?” 9. “I don’t care how badly he did, I’d still take Biden comatose over the other guy bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.” 10. “Liar liar pants on fire! We’ll need a fire extinguisher soon!” 11. “Great, so now we have to pick between a brain-addled mummy and an orange clown with a marmoset perched on his head.” 12. “Just because Alfred is getting a little old to run the Batcave doesn’t mean you replace him with The Joker.” 13. “And the winner of the debate… Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.” **Ruin a Novel by Changing One Letter** 1. _Withering Heights_ ---

**Ruin a Novel by Changing One Letter** 1. _Withering Heights_ 2. _The Odd Man and the Sea_ 3. _Lady Chatterley’s Liver_ Which is actually the punchline of a joke I heard 40+ years ago. An aspiring author heard that Britons were most interested in reading about the aristocracy, sex, and health. So he decided his new novel would be . . . _Lady Chatterley’s Liver_. ---
