Perspective

Overheard at a funeral:

"You know Helen, they're hoe'in in our row."

Family Game

My son has a job, his job is to take out the trash. He's paid a rather hefty allowance for this job. However, seeing as this lofty task was thrust upon him and being a 17 yr. old boy, taking out the trash is rarely if NEVER his first priority... So our family gets to play a little game I like to refer to as 'Trash Can Jenga'... And if you've ever played 'Jenga' you know EXACTLY what I mean.

Bottom of the Stack

I ALMOST threw out the last post-it note because I figured when I found it later I'd just think it was trash.

Mail Call

You know I didn't really feel THAT old until I picked up the mail on my birthday, which included letters from:

The American Heart Association
American Diabetes Association
and worst of all...
The Greater Maryland Chapter of Alzheimer's Associates

The first two sent me... You guessed it... Address Labels. As for the Alzheimer's folks, I guess they forgot.

It's all in the name...

I'm still trying to comprehend the marketing genius that came up with the name 'Sag Harbor' for a line of womens clothes at Sears... Anyone? Anyone?

Is there truly such a place? Would anyone want to say they actually live there?

Just in case there's a marketing department running short of ideas the likes of which the folks at Sears came up with, I'll post a few here:

'FATASS Junction' - Jeans

'Double-bagger' - Headgear

'Monkey Face' - Baby Wear

'Flab-tastic' - Workout Clothing Line

'Sasquatch' - Size 10 and up Footwear
'She-squatch' - Oversize Footwear for Large Women

'Coke-Bottles' - Glasses

'Thunder Thighs' - Queen size nylons

Let's see, can you think of any others?
