  1. Watch out and be sure to list the things you want for Christmas or you'll just get socks and ugly ties and reindeer sweaters.
  2. "Nice" would be dumping "daylight saving" time permanently, as numerous studies indicate it's pretty much useless, and quite possibly has negative health effects.
  3. "Boo...hoo hoo" said the ghost who wasn't sure if it wanted to be scary or whiney.
  4. Apes have the cool thing down.
  5. Smart people realize that there's way more they don't know than they know, they're open to learning and revising their ideas when presented with new evidence, and they don't blindly follow whatever opinion or fad is trending.
  6. Engine noises coming from a moose might be a sign of trouble.
  7. Tough times are hard on those who don't deal well with adversity.
  8. "Woodpecker Treat" is the name of the suet cakes most of the local wild birds seem to prefer, including 4 species its namesake.
  9. I hope the bill passes. A little rationality as to how vehicles that contribute a miniscule, almost nonexistent amount to "pollution" would be a good thing. The state I'm in has very reasonable vintage vehicle emissions and registration laws, as does the one I'm moving to. I'll refrain from further remarks about California that would be blatantly political.
  10. In difficult times it seems like it would be nice to have friends to lean on a little, but reality favors self-reliance.
  11. "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." Martin Luther King Jr.
  12. Bodega Bay was the setting for Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds.
  13. An apple a day is 365 apples a year, and that's a lot of apples.
  14. Never put off 'til tomorrow something you can weasel out of entirely.
  15. Knows the Nose a thing or two about Mrs. Calabash, but not apparently her location.
  16. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their qwertyuiop.
  17. Folk-slingers are trebuchets that launch people.
  18. Hand-over-hand rope climbing can be pretty much impossible for a lotta geezers.
  19. PM'd. Cool little car. Too bad it didn't make it to production. I would have most definitely wanted one. Small, agile, mid-engined. Yeah baby. EDIT: Looks like it could have made a great kit-car.
  20. Safelight in my area has had some problems with poorly-skilled employees ruining instrument panels, cutting through structural pinch-welds surrounding windshields, and leaving gaps causing major wind and water leaks...some of which one of the shops I work with has been called in to correct.
  21. Duo and Denom can team up to give you a real pain in the guts.
  22. Album covers in the '60s didn't draw me in like model box-art did, 'cause I already knew what the music sounded like, but when bookstores had CDs you could listen to before buying, I'd often choose something I'd never heard just because of the album art.
  23. Hippie girls just seemed to find out early how to go through life on just a smile.
  24. "Attraction" between hippos has always made me wonder "are they all blind?"
