Things I’ve Overheard at the Marijuana Dispensary
- I’m organizing a 2-Mile Run to promote Metric System Awareness
- I’m tellin’ ya…Chuck Norris has no safe word
- They asked the Marquis De Sade’s wife why she stays with him.
What did she say?
Beats me.
- They asked the married cannibals why they stayed together.
What did they say?
Eats me!
- Remember what Narcissus said to himself before bed: “You had me at me.”
- What are you reading?
Oh, it’s the poorly selling sequel to The Little Engine That Could
Really? What’s it called?
The Little Engine That Threw a Rod
- Do you know he was never sick a day in his life. Nope, he did all his puking at night.
- That little girl scout out front selling her cookies– she sure knows her market
- I’m jittery, like a squirrel, about ready to cross a busy highway. If only I remembered where I buried my nuts.
- I’m tellin’ ya…Chuck Norris has no bucket list items
- I never feel quite right watching a Thursday Night edition of Monday Night Football. Those are weak days.
- I have it on good authority that when you die, they ask you to take a brief “How did we do?” survey. And I didn’t think they cared.
My Aging Body: Recent Observations
- I don’t know how it happens, but nowadays, no matter where I am, whenever I get naked, light bulbs automatically dim
- To hell with aiming. When I get up to pee during the night, I sit on the pot.
- My dermatologist says I have old-growth skin tags that are so ancient, they’ve become UNESCO World Preservation sites and, by law, cannot be removed
- I must be slipping. Whenever I play catch, and my partner fakes the throw I wonder…where did the ball go? It takes me about 10 seconds to figure out they still have the ball.
- I try to maintain a positive body image, but when I look in a mirror these days, I’m mostly pixilated.
- You know those stupid 2 ½ minute pharmaceutical commercials? I record them.
- I guess I’m non-binary now. Instead of seeing the world as a series of 1’s and 0’s, now I see it as a series of business and non-business days
- I’m very proud of my well-formed nostrils. I’m just a Nostril-positive person. Although most people just think I’m nosey.
- I’m already so “out there,” that if I take a Gummy, I actually get more sober
- Even though I’m mostly bald now, I have the same amount of total hair I had when I was 20. It’s just redistributed amongst my ears, nostrils, eyebrows and back.
- Nowadays when people point at something, I just look at the end of their finger
- And finally, I realize I’m getting older because I don’t know any of the hosts on Saturday Night Live

Popular New Food Network Shows Part I
- The Butcherlor: Young female carnivores vie for the affections of a hunky single butcher. Most get chopped. The winner is neatly tied-up in wax paper and then slid across a stainless-steel counter into the waiting arms of the Butchelor. Anyway you cut it, this show is a real meat market.

Parents Carol and Mike work the front of the house while chef Alice does all the scut work in the back with the “help” of their bunch of 6 unorganized children. Alpha-kid Greg succeeds in unionizing the Bunch and they all get a 10 This is where the expression, “It’s like herding Brady’s” came from.

- Whiners, Sit-ins and Hives: Guy Fieri dines with complainers, college protesters and beekeepers. Eventually they all end up eating crow.
- Soup to Nuts: In this psychologically revealing show, unsuspecting diners begin their meals with some relatively tame chicken soup. Unbeknownst to them, they are progressively served foods that induce insanity. At the end of the meal, diners are absolutely nuts. “Soup to Nuts” is a favorite of lunatics everywhere.
- Fingerling Earthling: Dr. Moreau meets Mr. Potato Head. A crazed plant geneticist creates a potato with human aspirations. The resultant spud seems more interested in collecting social security than in putting in a good day’s work. So what else is new?
