When Candace Is Gone.....

Hoo boy, Candace is in London and is now defenseless. We subs will now see if we can get some Google hits with strong language and negative waves. For the record, I am Gene Maudlin, and I post as Old Horsetail Snake.


So, I am reading this Internet story about baseball players J.D. and Stephen Drew, who are brothers and are finally together in the Big Leagues, and playing against each other. And there is this sentence:

"Their parents flied in for the series."

Gack! We have out-sourced sports reporting.

Isn't it cute how much fun little girls can have with their dogs? Like this.

Or how much fun a guy can have with his loose change? Like this.

A bear walks into a bar in Billings, Montana, and sits down. He bangs on the bar with his paw and demands a beer. The bartender approaches and says, "We don't serve beer to bears in bars in Billings."

The bear, very angry, says, "If you don't serve me a beer, I"m going to eat that lady sitting at the end of the bar." The bartender says, "Very sorry, but we don't serve beer to belligerent, bully bears in bars in Billings."

The bear goes to the end of the bar and, as promised, eats the lady. He comes back and demands a beer. The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve beer to belligerent, bully bears in Billings who are on drugs."

The bear says, "I'm not on drugs!"

The bartender says, "You are now. That was a barbitchyouate."
