I’ve Felt This Excited Going To Bed At Times Myself.

The Three Degrees (1974)

We have a shot of Copper after he did a flop in his cage. I’d been trying to get a picture of him doing this for several months, but I’m 1) too slow, 2) too noisy, or he’s 3) got super hearing - or all of these. Being a lop, I had not considered the advantages of having big, flexible ears, As in this picture, he can put one of those big boys down over his eye to make it dark enough to fall asleep. Being handicapped in this area, I have to resort to a pillow on my head. Rest easy, little boy, more fruit and vegetables are heading your way.

Overhead view, while I had the chance to get it.

This thing is a land yacht! When I lived in South Florida, the IT director was from Noo Yawk, with that kind of accent and he had a ‘72 Buick in a darker green. He ruled his kingdom with fear; after being hired, he’d keep an eye on what you were doing, and a misstep resulted in a visit from him, in a not-so-good mood. Being the kind of guy he was, he might still have that Buick.

As bald men might say, “Grass doesn’t grow on a busy street,” referencing their hairless head.

I say, “Grass doesn’t grow in cement, either,” referencing their hairless head.

Every night you dream that you talk to a genie, when you wake up you can't remember what you wished for. One morning you wake up with a giant crab pincer replacing your right arm. What do you do?

Amazed at the sight of my arm, I call out, “Hey genie, I know I was thinking about having some crab for dinner, but it’d be cannibalism to have some now.”

I got one of these for Christmas, in 1965 or 1966. It could be that my mom figured it was easier to express my opinions in inoffensive signs and silently rather than have me verbally communicate what might have really been on my mind.

Part of the rationale that Alito wrote in the decision to reverse Roe vs. Wade was that the right to an abortion (specifically) did not appear in the Constitution.

Likewise, the Constitution did not specify that misogynistic, shallow, hypocritical, partisan political hack liars should not be Supreme Court justices, so Republicans and the Federalist Society took advantage of that omission, too.

Remember when you had to bring your little brother to a play date?

One got kicked out, the other is on the way out. Couldn’t happen too soon or to a more deserving pair:

We used to shop at this Publix in Cocoa Beach - eventually Publix built a new one in town, walking distance from our condo, and sold the building to Winn-Dixie.

Oh gee, that is so true. We had red, white & blue painted on anything that wasn’t moving, and most things that were. Plus, we had 2 1/2 years of bicentennial minutes on TV every night.

People who were not alive in 1976 have no idea just how ubiquitous the “Bicentennial” was. It was e v e r y w h e r e.
