No one should be surprised by paying four dollars for a drink at a place called ‘$tarBUCKS’. Subliminal? I think so. Either that or they’re putting crack in the ‘pumpkin spice latte’. I love them. I crave them. I would pay most anything for them. At some point I think we lose all common sense … More Starbucks

I’ve never been on a zip line, but if I do I want to go at night wearing night vision goggles and a special forces uniform with a gun. Oh, and I might never come back. I’ve often thought about living in the woods and living off the land. It would probably be very lonely, … More Zip line

I’m a huge fan of sketch comedy and improv. The only thing I don’t like, is when a bunch of people get on stage and make stuff up. They play these games that are really funny. That are hilarious! Like the TV show, ‘Who’s line is it anyway?’ I absolutely loved that show as did … More Improv is the best!

Heather and I were watching one of those dance shows last night. They introduced a new dance called the DC special. All you have to do is take three steps forward, two steps backward, then side-step, side-step, and turn around. I guess I’ll never be able to be a politician because I just can’t dance. … More Me dance? Not a chance!

I think if I were an Uber or Lyft driver, I would make everyone put all packages in the trunk for ‘safety’ reasons’. Then I would charge $25 per item before I unload them. Cha-ching! Now there’s your tip. If someone called the cops on me. I would say, “Hey, we already made the trip. … More Everything goes in the trunk!

I think wishing on a star is stupid. Some people think it’s romantic but they obviously haven’t thought it through. How would you get there? Someone would have to fly you there in a rocket. That’s very expensive. I don’t have that kind of money. Besides once I got there, what would I wish for? … More Wish upon a what???

Yes, the Echosystem Is really doing quite well. Everybody says it’s not because of too much pollution and plastic. I don’t get these scientists. If I stand in my yard and yell something, it always echoes back. Yet another example of scientific evidence conjured up… Wait, Ecosystem? As you were. The earth is full of … More Everything is just fine!

I’ve heard so many people say, “I can to trust him as far as I can throw him.” This is ridiculous. Why would you want to throw someone to determine their level of trust? I know one thing for sure. If someone threw me, I don’t think I would never trust them again. This concept … More I can’t trust you!
