When I went shopping for mouth wash, I was taken aback by the variety of flavors that were available.  Unfortunately, the varieties were all based on mint.

The famous political statement says that “if elected, I will….”  Unfortunately, politicians do not have the power to change anything, they can only try.

The Cubs have won the World Series.  I guess hell really did freeze over.

Wow, Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature.  What is next, Keith Richards winning the Nobel Peace Prize for chemistry?

I love is when I hear that a TV cooking star is now designing furniture.  I have to wonder what makes them an expert on designing furniture.  And what does the furniture look like?  How about a bag chair that looks like mashed potatoes.  Or a coffee table that looks like creme brulee.

The ad stated that fall is the perfect time to buy new furniture.  Of course, I suspect that the same could be said for winter, spring and summer.

The sign at the deli proclaimed that the meat was “all natural”.  I guess that means that there are no tofu burgers or bean bologna.

Quite often, when I am stuck eating supper by my self, I will go to the store and buy a package of precooked meat such as pulled pork.  It gives me enough for a nice meal with  some left over.  So, when I found myself eating solo the other night, I headed for the store.  But after looking through the packaged meat section several times, I could not find any.  So, I asked a clerk.  And he confirmed that they no longer carry it.  Rats!  So, I purchased a salad instead.

In the past, if I needed a technical reference book for Windows or my iPhone, I could pick them up at my local grocery store.  But when I went to the store for a book on Windows 10, I discovered that they had been replaced with adult coloring books.  I guess that the coloring books were to help you ease the stress that you have dealing with technical problems.

We use peanut oil in our deep fat fryer so we like to buy it in multi-gallon containers.  But when we used up the last this summer, we weren’t able to find the large containers in the stores.  Finally, we found some in a bulk food store.  So, we purchased it.   But then all of the stores seemed to have it.  I would not have thought peanut oil to be a seasonal commodity.
