Random Ponderings:
1. "Some pigs do look better with lipstick."....Kermit the Frog.
2. I want glasses like Sarah Palin has. You know.... the rose-colored ones, moose-horn rimmed. I have always been attracted to women in glasses ... and nothing else.
3. I am more than 400 miles from Hurricane Ike, and one of its outer bands just blew over a plant in my back yard.
4. I am averaging 4 pounds loss a week. In a year I will be back to my grade school figure.
5. Drinking when I was too young took some of the fun out of turning 21. And having already used Viagra takes a lot of the fun out of turning 60. I wonder what I'm not supposed to do now as I wait to get 80.
6. I was at a drug store waiting for a prescription when I noticed a gadget for sale that is kind of like a back scratcher, but is use to hold toilet paper. Somehow it made me feel better about myself. At least I never needed one of those.
7. The other day I had a rum and coke. It is notable because I noticed how rarely I drink any more. I don't think I could handle drinking like I used to. And I don't miss it. Does that mean I am wise, or just old.
8. Sorry, kids. I like the grandkids better. And I don't have to buy them cars.
9. I got offered a job that paid good money, but required a lot of travel. I turned it down. It made me feel rich. I did hear that they are hiring greeters at our local Walmart. But you must be bi-lingual.
10. I can't think of a tenth one.
It is good to be alive. And good to have at least a few people in the world who will actually read this all the way to the end. Thanks. That's what friends are for.
