Get The Right Goat! Irony or Coincidence?
Most of us confuse and mislabel irony and coincidence, usually calling something ironic when indeed it is coincidental. With my extended educational background I two do this every now and then.................................................. Maybe this is the right goat video:
While looking for the right goat video (insert your funny comeback here) I found this, from many, many years ago: a video featuring George Harrison and Sir Jackie Stewart:
Jackie's son went to Duke, I saw Sir Jackie at a football game there once; you see kids, many years ago you knew pretty much everyone at a Duke football game, most by their first name....I wasn't Jackie's biggest fan, but he did so much to improve the safety of Formula One, and therefore at some point all motor vehicles.
There once was a tree planted in Griffith Park in Los Angeles (how did that fail spell-check?) in honor of George Harrison. After George bought an English estate he became quite the gardener, and his adopted hometown honored him with this tree and plaque after his death. It died last week as a result of insect infestation..........................by beetles. No kidding. I remember George once said something (OK, that was a good pun) to the effect that his biggest break in his life was getting into the Beatles, his second biggest was getting out of the Beatles. I'm sure he would appreciate the irony.........................of the death of his tree
And yes to the Fishin Optishin, I am indeed happy to be at Ventamatic, no there was no background check that I couldn't pass, although I am a bit concerned about the drug test. I'm not sure I can roll a doobie anymore. And with the fishing performance of 2014 I think I picked the right year to change careers. I'm kinda going to be at home next week (maybe an overnight to VA?) so for the first time in well over a month..........oh boy I hope SWMBO doesn't get too tired of me.......................
Just in case, does anyone know where I can buy some clean urine?
Oh, SWMBO gave me a new i-phone last week, I now have a personal assistant named Siri. She is very nice, wakes me in the morning and tells me the weather................in Kabul.......... we are working on the location. This week after she told me something she asked that I watch my language, then called my mother, asked if I kiss my mother with this mouth, and then said she hoped I didn't do that right then. Can you follow the thread? I do like her though, very helpful indeed!
