It's only June First but the pollen load is making me cantankerous.
I set out a bird feeding station on my balcony and for the last month an American Goldfinch has been attacking its reflection in my floor to ceiling windows. Nothing I do deters him, aggressive creatures those Americans.
The smoked chicken luncheon meat I bought in early May has a best before date of July 29, just what do they do to it?
I have decided to wait for the complete Hobbit series on DVD to watch the Lord of the Rings Prequel by Jackson. What year is that likely to be? Comes word that Tolkien did not coin the word Hobbit. In Wales a hobbit was a former measure of approximately two bushels and a half. Unless Hobbits have strength equivalent to that of an ant it's doubtful a Hobbit could budge a hobbit of anything unless they were feathers.
Proving that people are heroes everywhere but in their own hometowns consider the four young Hobbits in Lord of the Rings. At Aragon's Coronation Ceremony on the heights of Minas Tirith, Frodo, Sam, Pippin, and Merry are honoured when the High King and the assembled men, dwarfs, and elves bow low to them. When they arrive home the townsfolk of the Shire ignore them as if they were just now stumbling home after a night at Green Dragon.
In 1995's How to Make an American Quilt Finn displays an impossible level of self-centredness and lack of commitment. She has changed the subject of her thesis so often her Grandmother has lost track of it. When Sam arrives with architectural drawings for the renovations he is making to their home it becomes quite plain that Sam wants children but the idea is furthest from Finn's mind. When presented with the finished quilt which is not likely to be colourfast she shows so much regard for object her Grandmother, Great-Aunt and their friends have laboured on all summer that she promptly drags it through bright red California mud. Were I Sam I'd run not walk in the opposite direction.
One of Garrison Keillor's better lines:
A teacher told his school board that there was no need to teach evolution in his classroom because it hadn't happened there yet. Then he realized no one had any idea what he was talking about.
I used to be somewhat miffed when a book I had not yet gotten around to reading in a $20 Trade Paperback edition went on sale in a remaindered Hard Cover Edition for $5.00. How is it that E-books can now be more expensive than a mass-market paperback edition of the same book?
The anniversary of their coronation is not a day of unbridled celebration for a hereditary monarch as it also marks the date of the death of their parent.
During the recent citywide lockdown in Boston occasioned by the search for the perpetrators of the bombings Police specifically requested that key Dunkin Donuts locations remain open for the sustenance of the officers. Did they really think this through?
Recently learned how the American Tea Party got its name:
Taxed Enough Already
Fast and Furious 6
Is Hollywood really that devoid of new ideas? They lost me at II.
If a woman became president would her husband become the First Man?
DWEEB
Dick with eyebrows
Fortunately I have to keep mine trimmed.
