A colleague of mine recently found himself forced to assume the role of a math tutor to a pair of guests.
“M -EFFIN LEE”: (Yeah, that’s what we call him; it’s not as cool as “The Hook”, but its pretty close!) How many bags would you like to store, folks?
YOUNG EINSTEIN: One and a couple!
“M-EFFIN” LEE”: I’m sorry, how many?
YOUNG EINSTEIN: (Looks around at his three bags) One and a couple!
This isn’t just funny, it’s an indictment of the modern educational system… Young Einstein could have also said “One and four less than seven.”
As for my Sunday, it was filled with the usual colorful characters;
- A birthday party consisting of a dozen 16-year-old Kim Kardashian clones whose attire made the real deal look like Mother Teresa ! Seriously, just picture Christina Aguilera, but waay sluttier… I was worried I’d be arrested for simply being in the same lobby as these prepubescent swamp donkeys.
- Having hung-over cougars and drunken Alpha males in the same lobby at check-out time doesn’t mix; the cougars circled the males, who talked a good game, but couldn’t actually close the deal. The spectacle got old quick.
TIME FOR OTHER BUSINESS..
A shout-out to my newest blog buddy, Kristen Lamb and her best-selling tome, We Are Not Alone: The Writer’s Guide to Social Media. Give it a try, folks. You won’t be disappointed…
CHECK IT OUT!!
My first foray into blogging minimalism, 1,001 Reasons Why Steve Sucks… is up and running. Give it a look-see, will you?
AND FINALLY, A SUNDAY TWEET FROM THE HOOK…
This was how my day ended; not with a whimper, but a bang – almost!
You've Been Hooked! 
Never a dull moment!
Never!
Haha, that tweet was so hilarious.
And what’s wrong with parents, right? Which idiot leaves their children to walk around like that!?
In an article I published a week ago I wrote a passed a store that sold thongs in sizes only a 9-year-old would be able to fit. That actually happened. I didn’t make that up. What is wrong with the world?
And how did you do that tweet-thing in your post? That’s pretty awesome.
here’s the link to the article I used
I appreciate your other comments and your interest so far; you rock!
Sluttier than Christina Aguilera? I’m intrigued. Please tell me more.
And ditto what Daan said about the tweet-thing. I rarely have use for it, but it would be a nice thing to add to the ol’ bag o’ tricks.
Here’s the link to the article I used.
What can I say about the Kardashian clones? These girls were far too young to be parading around like the love children of porn stars and strippers! Seriously, they looked super slutty, far too slutty for a “Sweet Sixteen” party…
I assume you’re talking about those privileged princesses they parade around on television (how’d you like my alliteration?). The kind of girls who spend the better part of their 20s and 30s going clubbing and having no idea that drinks actually cost money, right?
You would be correct, sir!
If you can help it, don’t hang around in their presence too long. There’s well-documented research that indicates you will get dumber the longer you are exposed to them.
Fortunately, they were buzzing around like bees on Red Bull, so they were gone quickly…
Great tweet !! The thought of cloning Kardashians makes me want to go into hiding !! Lord, help us all !
I hear you…
I don’t know what you are talking about. Dry humping on the valet deck is super classy.
If you say so; after all, you are the Martha of WordPress, but young, cute and honest!
Haha! I was being sarcastic. But you probably already knew that.
Yes, indeed!
By the way, I love 1001 Reasons Why Steve Sucks too.
That fills my bellman heart with happiness and warmth. Seriously!
I clicked the link to the new blog and it says it was taken down by the authors. Have you deleted it already?
Yes. Long story short, I promised the wife I’d cut back on my blogging and I broke that promise. NEVER LIE OR BREAK YOUR PROMISE TO YOUR SPOUSE! I’ll never do that again…
Ouch…
You have no idea…
Sluttier than X-Tina? That’s pretty darned slutty. L.
It sure is…
You get to have all the fun…! 😉
Don’t kid yourself, my life isn’t all about having fun..
I can count to ten…still have all ten fingers. Not sure about one and a couple.
That makes two of us!
I got a good laugh, great post, but couldn’t help but wonder if taking pictures of these glittering jewels of our societies wouldn’t also help drive the point home even more. I would have loved to see the empty looking face of “One and a couple” boy. Just to see how slow the wheels were really turning! 8)
Unfortunately I can’t violate a guest’s right to privacy; they frown upon that sort of thing around here.
