Ten Deep Thoughts to Exercise Your Brain

You know how sometimes when you are in your car and late for an appointment and some lazy, gallingly self-entitled, recently pubescent, fauxhemian saunters across the street in front of you, all sloth-like in his gait? Well, rather than throw away my home and good credit score by crushing his pork-pie sportin’ cranium into the back end of an idling UPS truck, I take this precious minute or two and sort things out in my vodka-addled brain.Here are ten such items.

  1. Who was the first person to think eating an oyster was a good idea?
  2. If I had to hunt, trap, or kill my own food to survive I would starve.
  3. I am far more clever and funny than 58% of the people making a healthy living on network sitcoms.
  4. Why hasn’t a chartered aircraft crashed to earth, while carrying an American professional sports team? (College’s Marshall football, notwithstanding)
  5. Thankfully and mercifully, “git er done” seems to have run its course.
  6. In the still of the morning, when Dolly Parton wakes – does she truly think that without her ginormous breasts, her “career” would have been as profitable?
  7. The makers of age-defying creams should have to have their eyebrows plucked with a rusty hand saw.
  8. I think that if I had to knowingly be something other my human self – I should like to be a pampered house cat with a screened in porch, to enjoy spring and summer days; or a duck, placidly swimming and flying and inhabiting a quiet lake in NH. I would miss cold beer and juicy hamburgers though.
  9. Does the mail carrier read and enjoy other people’s dirty magazines prior to delivery? And does he or she sit in judgment at the red-bordered “final notice” utility bills as they’re delivered?
  10. How does Pizza Hut stay in business? Are consumers in general that poor at discerning a decent, quality pizza?
