I was flipping through LP’s at the thrift store today, (Ok, ok…I admit it: I was looking for ELO albums, sheesh. At least I’m not a RUSH fan, heh heh. ;)) Anyways I nearly fell over laughing when I saw an album entitled: GRY! I flipped it over to see if it stood for something and nope, it’s some guy named Gry Johnson (or whatever.) Puzzle solved!

I was bitching about my mother in the Barbecue Pit, so I’ll do it here too, just to be consistent. But really, it’s relevant to the OP.
My parents but an antique cabinet, and had to move a painting to put it up. It was a still life of narcissus (the flower). So after the cabinet was up, she kept moping about how terrible it was she had to move the painting, even after conversation had moved on. “Oh, my narcissus. I had to move my narcissus!”
My dad tried to reason, “Well, we’ll find somewhere nice to put it. The cabinet really has to go there. Do you think there’s a better place for the cabinet?”
“Ohh my narcissus. I’m going to miss having my narcissus there. That painting is so beautiful. I love it.” ad nauseum
Any similarity in the above text to an English word or phrase is purely coincidental.
Well, here’s an old coincidence, but one that amused me no less.
Back when I was in college and in the large University Choir group, we spent a few days every December at a Marriott hotel. The hotel housed and fed us in return for 2-4 Christmas concerts a day. (Bleh! It got soooooo old…)
Anyway, while carpooling to the Marriott with a male friend, we were cracking jokes about all the possible damage we could do. Honestly, I don’t remember exactly what led to the comment, but I remember my friend saying something like, “We need a keg in 306…Yes, a keg in 306…We’ll bring it right away, sir!”
When we finally got to the hotel and registered, guess what room number my friend got. Yep. 306. We laughed for quite a while, much to the bewilderment of the hotel staff.
We just had one today and our poor friend couldn’t figure out why we busted out laughing when first talking to him.
The whole family slept in today. I was the first one awake at 10 a.m., with the rest of the family waking up over the next 15 minutes or so. My hubby comes downstairs just as the phone starts ringing. After the first ring, he hollers “What in the f*&k do you want now, Randy?” (Randy is a friend of his). I pick up the phone on the second ring and sure enough, it was Randy. He asked me why I was so chipper this morning, after listening to me giggle rather uncontrollably for about ten seconds.
Okay, so I guess you had to be there.
