The other morning while driving to work, I passed a semi truck with two trailers loaded with what appeared to be Christmas Trees. I guess the idea is that you can buy your Christmas Tree right along with your Thanksgiving turkey.

Mexican Brown Duck
Many years ago, a scientist was given a research grant to study the Mexican Brown duck. And after several years in the field, he published his work and everyone applauded his efforts. A few years later, another scientist decided to resume the study. Unfortunately, the Mexican Brown duck could not be located. This led some people to speculate that the Mexican Brown duck was nothing more than an elaborate hoax.
Country Western Weddings.
I just read where another country western singer is divorcing his country western singer wife. These country western singing folks never seem to live happily ever after. As far back as I can remember, singers like Tammy Wynett, George Jones, Loretta Lynn were getting married and divorced. And even today, the CW group can’t seem to make marriage work. I have to wonder if it is because they sing about such topics as cheating and divorce?
Arby’s
The other day for lunch I decided to go to Arby’s and try their Smoke House Brisket sandwich. The guy in front of me also ordered a Smoke House Brisket and a Corn beef Ruben. When my order arrived before his, he asked me if that was mine. When I told him that it was, he asked me if that was a Smoke House Brisket. I told him that it was. Then he asked me if it was any good. I told him that I didn’t know as I had never had one before. He then told me that his son-in-law was a dentist and that he was going to have lunch with him. He told me that he was buying because he wanted to borrow his son-in-laws chainsaw for the weekend.
I was relieved that he was doing take-out. Otherwise, I was afraid that I would end up with a very chatty lunch companion.
Authentic!
Spicy V8.
I drink a glass of V8 every morning at breakfast. And to add a little zest to it, I add a few dashes of hot sauce. So, I was pleased to discover that V8 makes a spicy version. However, when I picked up the bottle, I noticed that they wanted $.40 more for the spicy version.
$.40 more for a few drops of hot sauce? I don’t think so.
Bank Of America.
I recently received an email stating that my Bank Of America account needed to be upgraded. And since I don’t have a Bank Of America account, I suspected that it was a “Phishing” attempt. When I looked at the email address of the sender, I discovered that it was from a church and not Bank Of America. So, I assumed that the email address was “spoofed” and not valid.
When I opened the email, I discovered that they wanted me to enter my account number and my password so that I could update my account information. Of course, since I didn’t have an account with BoA, I dismissed the whole email.
But, if someone did have an account with BoA, they could be mislead. So, it is always good to call the bank before revealing any vital information.
Knife Control!
I am sick and tired of people being able to walk into any grocery store or hardware store and buy a knife in order to kill people. We just had another incident of a person wandering into a school with an unregistered knife and killing people.
When are we going to ban knives? When are we going to stop this madness?
Knives kill people! There is no reason for anyone to own a knife. Grocery stores already have our food sliced and diced for us so why would we need a knife unless we plan to kill someone? Knives kill people, that is why after an attack at an IKEA store, IKEA has banned the sale of them.
Ratty Looking Guitars.
The latest fad in music is to play ratty looking acoustic guitars. These guitars have no pick guards so they have pick scratches on face of the guitar body both below and above the strings. I guess it is suppose to make the musician look like a real hard core performer. I suspect that it will only be a matter of time before music stores start selling prescratched guitars.
Mixed Marriage.
My wife and I have a mixed marriage. She is a woman and I am a man. In this day and age, I guess that makes for a mixed marriage.
