I have been have weird dreams lately. This quasi-venerable clean-cut country musician is telling his wife about this great check-cashing place that only asks for 2 pieces of ID and only charges 5%; so she says, “Why are you using a check cashing service when we have accounts in at least three banks where they will do that for you at no charge?” I thought, you know, that could be one of a series of “Don’t Be Stupid” PSAs. Then it occurred to me. Subtext. Why _was_ he using a check cashing service? Hmmm … ---

I got my wife good, this morning. She was on the phone making a doctor appointment. The phone speaker was on. I heard the receptionist asking a list of questions: Name?–she responded; Doctor’s name?–she responded; Birthday?– I was just passing behind her and mumbled **I don’t know the doctor’s birthday, I just met him the one time**. The wife says **I d–** , whips around and throws daggers at me with her eyes. ---
