Funny Headlines; Not Funny

"A woman who was reported as missing from an Icelandic tour, unwittingly joined a search for herself." --Yahoo News

Some of us without wit started trying to "find ourselves" back in the sixties.  Some of my contemporaries are still looking.

The Race is On

Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.  Daniel 12:4b

Yet probably not swiftly enough to overtake stupid. 

Home Economics

The Mrs. is putting a new trashbag in the kitchen wastebasket.

Bob:  What brand did you get this time?

She:  I don't know; they were cheap.

He:  I know.  Don't get them anymore.

She:  Why not?  I don't have any problem with them.

He:  No.  All you do is put them in the basket.  I ripped three holes in one this morning before I could get it tied up.

Fact of life:  Someone can, and will, produce an inferior imitation of any product and sell it for less.  Caveat emptor.

New Mantra

Listening to the news; commented to the spouse that we are in "doop dee-dee."  Trying to correct the slip, I said, "I mean, we are in doop dee-dee."  So that is my new mantra for reaction to political, economic, social news and commentary:  Doop dee-dee.

I have pretty much run out of political commentary.  This election cycle has gotten so far out of bounds that no one will ever find the ball.

Politics as Usual

What's that about?  Alliterative effect?

The Man is Not to Be Believed

This seems an appropriate response to Senator Reid's unsubstantiated assertion.

“What can be asserted without evidence

can also be dismissed without evidence.”  --Joe Joseph

A Bad Day

I paid you top dollar for that birth certificate, and you can't even disguise the fact that it's a fake?!

Mrs. Warr Responds

Trying?  Try living with a man!

Bob's Testimony

The only thing more trying than living with a woman is trying to live without one.

Dale Carnegie would be proud

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Romney spokesman Rick Gorka responding to reporters shouting questions to Mitt Romney in Poland:
