RANDOM THOUGHTS TO START A NEW YEAR …

Every box of raisins is a tragic tale of grapes that could have been wine.

Theme parks can snap a crystal clear picture of you on a roller coaster going 70 mph, but bank cameras can’t get a clear shot of a robber standing still.

Someone posted that they had just made synonym buns. I replied, “you mean just like the ones that grammar used to make?” I am now blocked.

The more I get to know people, the more I realize why Noah only let animals on the ark.

Facial recognition software can pick a person out of a crowd but the vending machine at work can’t recognize a dollar bill with a bent corner.

When all this pandemic stuff is over, I still plan to wear a mask. It hides the perpetual look of annoyance I have for most people.

I never make the same mistake twice. I do it like, five or six times, you know, to make sure.

Someone just honked to get me out of my parking space faster, so now I just have to sit here until both of us are dead.

My train of thought derailed. There were no survivors.

If you see someone buying candy, popcorn, and a soda at the movies, they must be a drug dealer. There’s no other explanation for that type of income.

After a year of this pandemic, I’m either going out for ice cream or to commit a felony. I’ll decide in the car.

I know it’s time to clean out my purse when my car assumes it’s an extra passenger who isn’t wearing a seat belt.

In the 1980s I fell off my bike and hurt my knee. I’m telling you this now because we didn’t have social media then.

Some people seem to have aged like fine wine. I aged like milk … I got sour and chunky.

Vegetarians live up to nine years longer than meat-eaters. Nine horrible, worthless, baconless years ….

I still have a full deck, I just shuffle slower.

Rainy Saturday

SATURDAY MORNING I GOT UP EARLY, DRESSED QUIETLY, MADE MY LUNCH, GRABBED MY CLUBS, SLIPPED QUIETLY INTO THE GARAGE AND PROCEEDED TO BACK OUT INTO A TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR.

THE WIND WAS BLOWING 50 MPH. I PULLED BACK INTO THE GARAGE, TURNED ON THE RADIO, AND DISCOVERED THAT THE WEATHER WOULD BE BAD THROUGHOUT THE DAY. I WENT BACK INTO THE HOUSE, QUIETLY UNDRESSED, AND SLIPPED BACK INTO BED. THERE I CUDDLED UP TO MY WIFE’S BACK, NOW WITH A DIFFERENT ANTICIPATION, AND WHISPERED, ‘THE WEATHER OUT THERE IS TERRIBLE.

MY LOVING WIFE OF 34 YEARS REPLIED, ‘CAN YOU BELIEVE MY STUPID HUSBAND IS OUT GOLFING IN THAT CRAP?

I STILL DON’T KNOW TO THIS DAY IF SHE WAS JOKING, BUT I HAVE STOPPED GOLFING.
