I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.
I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.
Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers.Now they drink like their fathers…I didn't make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.I decided to stop calling the bathroom the 'John' and renamed itthe 'Jim'. I feel so much better saying "I went to the Jim this morning".Old age is coming at a really bad time. When I was a childI thought "Nap Time" was a punishment. Now, as a grownup,it feels like a small vacation.The biggest lie I tell myself is... "I don't needto write that down, I'll remember it."I don't have grey hair; I have "wisdom highlights"I'm just very wise.Don't ever ask me to bend down and touch my toes. If Godwanted me to touch my toes, she would have put them on my knees.Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.Of course I talk to myself: sometimes I need expert advice.At my age "Getting lucky" means walking into a roomand remembering what I came in there for.Actually I'm not complaining becauseI am a Senager. (Senior teenager):I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only years later.- I don't have to go to school or work.- I have a driver's license and my own car.- I get an allowance every month.- I have my own iPad (although I can't recall where I kept it)- I don't have a curfew.Life is great.I have more friends I should send this to, but right nowI can't remember their names.Now, I'm wondering… did I send this to you? Or vice versa

And while we're on the subject of GOP antics, here's last week in the Republican Party:
https://youtu.be/KNmegk1z3A4
And just in case you missed it, both of these videos were generated by the Republicans of The
Lincoln Project.
I often find myself wishing that the Democrats at the top could hammer at the lunatic right the way
TLP does.
