Random Observations

  • When Rooms-to-Go gives a delivery window of 3:00 to 7:00 p.m., they actually mean dead on seven.
  • I don't know which is stranger: a zebra roaming around downtown and on the connector in Atlanta or a bison on the other interstate.
  • It's more than a little unsettling when you're driving on the interstate and look up and see those googly Geico eyes seemingly floating free, staring down at you from several hundred feet above the city.
  • It's even more unsettling to hear a 3-year-old use the word "succeed" in the correct context.
  • Every 24 hours, the world turns over on someone who was sitting on top of it.” ~ Crankshaft
  • Life lesson #9001: Frozen Cool Whip makes a passable substitute for ice cream if you eat it right away but it makes a lousy Coke float.
  • It's pretty darned embarrassing to pull into a McDonald's drive through at 6:30 a.m. and realize your window is frozen shut. Actually, three windows.
  • When I was young I thought getting old was the worst thing that could happen to you but as I've aged, I've learned there are things that are far worse, one of which is not getting older.
  • "Did you ever stop to think and forget to start again?" (Milne)
  • Few things are sadder than sitting alone at Waffle House on a Saturday night.
  • When a DeKalb County police officer asks if you know why he pulled you over on I-20 driving 62 mph in a 55 mph zone, “Umm, for slowing up traffic?” is probably not the best answer.
  • "You can get further with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." ~ Al Capone
  • Not only is life a bitch, it has puppies. ~ Adrienne Gusoff
