"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
If his missus was an Aussie she wouldn't have missed...
ReplyDeleteI'm reminded of an episode from the true-life TV series, Untold Stories of the ER, where two Australian friends were playing golf while somewhat inebriated and they got to arguing over how many strokes one of them took on a particular hole. One of the fellows hit the other with one of his own golf clubs and the thing broke and half of it got embedded in his neck. The whole time the injured man was in the emergency room, he kept arguing with his buddy, and when he found out that the friend had broken his favorite club, that bothered him far more than the fact that the thing was sticking out of his neck, dangerously close to his carotid artery (it was ultimately removed safely).
ReplyDeletePaco, this is totally off-topic, but I have curently not your e-mail address and this is so good:

I don't believe blondes, or any woman of different hair color, from anywhere, who marry extremely rich guys, actually care about the rich guy's sexual loyalty to her.
ReplyDeleteTherefore, I do not buy this story.
It also doesn't make sense that she'd complain he doesn't do the dishes as they have servants to do that. No, if it is about marital arrangements, its about how much she doesn't put out for him, for the money he gives her.
However, I don't buy any of these, my own, suspitions. I await some more info.
The carotid artery was removed safely? I'm confused.
ReplyDeleteDid they have a designated driver for the cart? Friends shouldn't let friends drive,or putt, when they are carotid.
"It" was the golf club, of course.
ReplyDeleteJust a joke Paco. You would be at room temperature in a NY minute without a carotid artery.
ReplyDeleteYou of all people should understand my,ahh, peculiar sense of humor by now.:)
My syntax is frequently joke-worthy. Although Australians are so tough, they could probably get by without a carotid artery.
ReplyDeleteYou're in good company. I was thinking of that famous Jerry Coleman broadcast moment. It went something like: "A drive to right (whoever the outfielder was) hits his head on the outfield wall, it's rolling back towards the infield."
ReplyDeleteTry the Yojimbo solution. At the beginning of every month I go into
Walmart and buy the giant economy sized version of grammar,spelling and syntax "offsets".:)
/Jerry Coleman was a WW Dos veteran. A highly decorated hero with many,many combat missions under his belt as a pilot. The fact that he doesn't get the credit that Ted "Teddy Ballgame" Williams gets is really a disgrace.
Yojimbo, I'm so glad you mentioned Jerry Coleman! What a great guy. Shook his hand once at a Padres game. Still miss hearing him call games. Inducted into the Marine Corps Sports Hall of Fame. Served in TWO wars (WWII & Korea). AMONG other things.

He is a gracious and humble man, and it ain't a new thing for him.
Tiger's lucky he isn't a professional tree feller.

Psst, Paco, people can get by without a carotid artery... some people have one side removed due to damage, cancer, whatever.... but just don't try it at home, it'd be fatal!
