But I can’t help myself. It was the girl’s first day back at school, and I’ve been downright *giddy* in spite of my fatigue. And then earlier I used the word “feud”. I started thinking: Shouldn’t it be F-U-E-D?
No, no. That wouldn’t sound like fyood. It would sound like fooed, as in:
The men fued.
But then if you tried to conjugate the verb it would sound like:
The men had fued.
And of course that lead to this:
Would you care for a sandwich?
And I’ve been guffawing over it ever since.
Love this! Big, big smile!!!

How dare you make fun of our feuding… hey… you’re right… that is a fun word… fued… feud… did Freud ever feud? Should we have sangfroid about our feuds? Is it rude to feud? But if it was good enough for the Hatfields and the McCoys…

I think Freud and Jung sort of feuded, right? (I am nnow visualizing their heads superimposed onto the bodies of Bruce and Chuck.)
Dude. You stumped me on “sangfroid”. Nice work. Not to brag, but that almost NEVER happens. I’ll look it up in a minute here…
Hell, yes, it’s rude.
Good enough for the Hatfields and McCoys? But those people were seriously nuts, yo. …oh.

That makes perfect sense. I’m ashamed I hadn’t considered that.

Well, in your defense, the traditional way to eat babies is roasted with new potatoes and asparagus.

True, and thank you. Though, a baby sandwich would be quicker and far less work to throw together as a meal.

There is that. It’s possible she used leftovers, but there’s too much meat left on that baby for that to be true.

There was a line? I didn’t see one… Were we supposed to step on it, or jump over it?

I want to add a bunch of Tom’s work on that page, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. (His voice sounds kinda like Iggy Pop to me.) He’s a very talented songwriter, and I think more people should hear him. He’s a “musician’s musician”. You know?

I do. We had pre-automatic credit card swipe days and pre-CD days (hell, pre-casette tape days, huh?). Not to mention pre-remote control days.
This may be unrelated, but here’s what makes me crazy:
Say I go to the store and my bill is $10.83. All I have is a $20 and some singles (because I am old enough to still carry cash from time to time). I give the cashier $21, and instead of giving me a ten dollar bil plus 17 cents change, they try to give me back the single, like I made a mistake.
oy.
