Nobody Asked - But

Nobody asked….

But

…why are there instructions in Braille at the drive thru window

…I think they should change the YIELD sign to….. NOW PLAY NICE

…I have an agreement with the fish – I pick up floating debris….they hit my lures.

…the line I get into always slows down

…couldn’t they solve the toilet paper shortage by making it longer?

…my treadmill has an attitude – it is powered by me and the computer keeps flashing
    “YOU’RE KILLING ME”

…my first argument with a teacher was about POETRY

…my last argument with a teacher was with my 7 year old granddaughter

…my remote control only works on the TV – but I keep tryin’

We must be in the same line, John. My line is always -- always! -- the slowest. That's a guarantee! :)

Very funny, John; there is so much wholesome humor in just everyday observation. Sounds like you are an old observing and thinker. Love it!

Your observations were most enjoyable, John. I think the list might have gone on and on and on....and on.
