Had a family friend off herself through self-drowning (filled pockets with weights, etc. and went in). To this day, when asked if I have seen someone from the hold neighborhood, the thought crosses the mind, “anyone check the pool?”
Our Minister starts his benediction with, “Whatever you do, in word or in deed” I always mentally add “This Bud’s for you.” I have shared this with friends in the congregation, and there are now several of us who get the giggles every Sunday.

My second week there, Manager is talking to Co-worker and me about a shipment. Manager says something or other about the physical qualities of the shipment.
“I had a girlfriend like that once!” Co-worker roars.
Without thinking, I turn to him, wide-eyed, and murmur,
