Leftovers

it would be a great name for a restaurant!  sadly this shop was selling super expensive crap at a little less than super expensive price.

 

No one usually starts out making leftovers

… they just sort of happen.

 

note: I’ll be right over for leftovers!

double note: the meal had subtle leftovertones to it.

triple note: leftovers are usually “dishporportional” somehow.

quadruple note: leftovers sound like a socialist thing.

quintuple note: leftunders are just leftovers that nobody wants to eat.

sextuple note:bereftovers” is food taken home after a funeral.

septuple note: we didn’t have leftovers at my house … just 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th helpings.

 

notes to myself #31

A lot of things you don’t like to eat now, you will like later … except brussel sprouts … I don’t think we will live long enough to truly like them.

The Video: Really Bad Things

 Here is a little video Kelly Pettit  and I made.
It’s a mixture of the “Really Bad Things” series with a bunch of new ones thrown in too!

 

 

 note: a very very very very special “thank you” to Kelly Pettit  who did all the work on this one: director, producer, cinematographer, sound engineer, and most especially editor. I really couldn’t have done this with out his expertise in things I know nothing about.
He also carried half the pool table around with me looking silly for a few hours.
Kelly rocks!!!!

double note: I should have smiled more in this video.

triple note: Really Bad Things, More Really Bad Things, and Still More Really Bad Things are still being bad.

 

notes to myself #10

When you are 9 years old do not do Morris’ paper route for him. He’s not going to pay you; and him and his dad are douche b … oh! … you don’t know those words yet! … they are jerks.

Too Much Time

Mirrors

I walked by a mirror and didn’t see my reflection.

It was very freaky!

Maybe it was a window.
I’m not too sure.

 

Bottleneck

I don’t know about you, but driving through a city called Bottleneck might not be the best idea!

 

Delicatessen

If I had a delicatessen, I’d call it The Psycho Deli.

Maybe I’d have a blackvelvet poster and a lava lamp somewhere.

 

Pets as Gifts

I don’t think it is a good idea to give a pet as a gift.

so

I usually give 2 pets: a male and female rabbit!

just to be safe.

 

I Want To Be A Webler!

web log = weblog = blog

Why isn’t it “webl”?

I’d rather webl and be a webler!

Turn Signals

I want up and down turn signals on my car: just in case.

 

Pirates of the Caribbean

I don’t care how good the movies are; the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland sucks.

 

Christmas Carols

People in the Southern Hemisphere are pretty good sports about Christmas Carols.

 

Youth

When I was younger, I was a lot shorter than I am now.

 

Funerals

Let’s put the “fun” back in “funeral”!

 

Jawbreakers

Has anyone ever broken their jaw on a jawbreaker?

FALSE ADVERTISING!

 

Rules

Rules are made to be broken.

except in sports.

There’s video replay now!

 

J-Pods

I’m waiting for the j-pods to come out!

 

Zombies are a Dying Breed

If everyone were cremated…..

I guess there would be no more Zombie movies!

That would suck.

 

 

 

Hopefully a Long Time from Now

Funerals:
The only thing I remember from my father’s funeral was watching the hearse drag a traffic cone the entire way from the church to the cemetary. Quite a feat since it was an hours drive. I was fascinated with that traffic cone. I wasn’t the only one: all of my brothers and sisters clearly remember it too!

Cemetaries:
I asked a tombstone engraving person: How many people can you stick in a funeral plot?
The answer: one burial and two internments (at least in Canada).
I started thinking about how many of my relatives have been buried and concluded that if I want to be interned I have a lot of choice!!
I have to be quick!

Limited room available!!!

Cremations:
I don’t want to be interned.
I want my ashes scattered some place I have visited and loved: Easter Island, Machu Picchu, Uluru (Ayers Rock), Komodo Island, …
My sister has offered to scatter me, but only if I pay for the trip (and maybe some money for shopping).

My sister is so caring.
