Foreign Food Tweet I’m guessing you can make refried beans from coffee beans. I hate coffee, so I would never try, but if you try it, let me know if it worked.
Short Months Tweet The full saying, as my sister taught me, is, of course: Thirty days hath Septober, Octember and No Wonder all eat sandwiches except for Grandma who rides a bicycle with thirty spokes who don’t speak unless spoken to.
Unequally Yoked — Not Yolked Tweet I like Trek and Wars both and have little patience for the knuckleheads who say you have to like one or the other. Not like we’re talking Coke vs. Pepsi here, folks!
First Thing in the Mornin’ Tweet Yes, you herpetologists, I know this isn’t possible. But then, turtles almost never talk to basset hounds, either, but no one ever complains about that.
Yule Dance. I Just Know it Tweet The thing is, the tune “Yule Dance” makes me feel like dancing … and I’m no kind of a dancer, having all the rhythm of your average squash
I Remember Her! Tweet I’m kindof surprised I didn’t get an email from someone complaining about me using the word “booboisie” in a family newspaper.
Win-Loss Tweet When you look at playing a 162 game season, among professional players (really good players), it’s almost surprising to me that we don’t have more ties.
Novelizations Tweet There are people who think this way. Who didn’t realize “The Hobbit” (and LOTR) were loosely based on existing books. But now, I’m surprised they didn’t come out with watered-down, simplified novels for the movies. Publishing thinks less and less of it’s readers and is mandating that authors not use compound sentences, keep the paragraphs short, and write everything at an 8th grade level. Are they correct in thinking so low of their audience, or are they trying to make their readers dim?
