Open Mouth Insert Foot

Insert foot into mouth

Oh gawd, I’ve done it again - stuck my foot in my mouth, clear up to the ankle - LOL!

It’s hot, gawd it’s hot here. They’re saying the heat index this weekend is gonna be 118 degrees!

So I bought ice cream drumsticks.

They come wrapped in a little plastic bag, and there’s always a bunch of the crushed peanut topping that gets knocked off inside the bag. I’m always mindful when I unwrap it, to split the side seam very carefully, and then dump the toppings that have broken off into my mouth. Sometimes they sticks to the plastic bag, and I scoop them out with my tongue.

So (you can see where this is going, can’t you?) the boy gets one out of the freezer, and removes the bag, wads it up and throws it toward the trashcan.

He missed, the bag popped open, and toppings went everywhere.

I blurted out, “Why didn’t you lick your nuts off?”

He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupery This post will remain alone on my home page until September 15, 2006 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Remember John F. Swaine World Trade Center. From the NY TImes John Swaine was the consummate Wall Street bond trader: "Aggressive and full of boundless energy," said his brother-in-law, Richard McGuire. He worked at Cantor Fitzgerald for about 10 years. "He really loved his work," Mr. McGuire said. "H...
