Beats me what kind of day that is, but it doesn’t make you sound like a frigging ray of sunshine! I’m picturing you at a wedding saying “Gee, wish I were at a funeral right now!” Thanks, Captain Bringdown. My wife wants me to quit Facebook and go on Twitter. ---

Do you think a buyer’s market will allow you to dump your ramshackle hut on some unsuspecting rube before the bottom drops out? Sounds a little desperate to me! Saw Tower of Power in concert over the weekend, they still deliver cool funky sounds. ---

Thousands of people died on that day, leading to wars that killed thousands more, and you’re complaining about a slight delay in your paycheck? Some people. Drinking cola with home made banana syrup. ---

Too cheap to buy new ones? Also, you might get fewer holes in the toes if you trimmed your toe nails once in a while. Winter’s early. ---

What? Winter started a dozen days ago according to the Celtic pagan calendar, which puts the solstices and equinoxes in the middle of the season. But all you ignorant people know about is the “standard” calendar. I dug out my winter coat, hat, scarf and mittens in honor of the beginning of the Celtic pagan winter. ---
