Well, dear readers, yesterday was funny. Yes, you heard it here, dear readers, yesterday was funny. As I told you in yesterday’s notes, it had poured rain all night long, and it was pouring rain whilst I composed yesterday’s ramblings. I was quite looking forward to a rainy day, as I like to drive when it is raining. However, the minute I left the house it stopped raining and not only did it stop raining, the fershluganah sun came out. So, I drove over the hill to pick up my new DVDs. When I came out of the store I noticed that the entire city was blanketed with ominous gray rain clouds. The entire city, that is, except where I was. Where I was the sun was peeking through the ominous gray rain clouds. So, I drove to my next destination. Again I noticed the entire city was blanketed by ominous gray rain clouds except where I was, and again the sun was shining in my area only. So, I got on the freeway to drive back to the valley and I decided to go to a store in Northridge. The entire way north the sun shone on my car, but nowhere else in the entire city. I got off the freeway and drove west, and again I had sun whilst the rest of the city had none. It began to be amusing, and after visiting the store in Northridge, I decided to have some fun. I drove north, I drove south, I drove west and I drove east and wherever I drove I had sun whilst the rest of the city had none. Finally, I went home. Ten minutes later it was raining again and there was no more sun. But this time I knew better – I stayed in, because had I gone out the sun would have immediately appeared. And that is why yesterday was funny.
Then I watched one of my brand spanking new DVDs, a motion picture comedy entitled Come September, starring Mr. Rock Hudson, Miss Gina Lollobrigida, Miss Sandra Dee, and Mr. Bobby Darin. I figured it had to be good because it was made a short time after Pillow Talk, was written by the same writer, and was directed by the talented Robert Mulligan. Well, yesterday may have been funny but this movie was certainly not funny, it was painfully unfunny. I finally shut it off after seventy-five minutes because I could bear no more. The cast was not at fault, they were all fine, including Mr. Joel Grey in a supporting role. He hadn’t quite had the final bob done on his nose (he’d had his nose done, but he obviously did one final nip and tuck after this film – if you want to see him with his old nose, find the film About Face from the late forties), but he still looks like our Joel.
Well, why don’t we all click on the Unseemly Button below because it is Sunday and I am being much too verbose for Sunday.
Has anyone noticed that I am being much too verbose for a Sunday? Sundays are for brevity, Sundays are for visits to the park, especially if you’re going with someone named George. The one thing Sundays are not for is verbosity.
Do you know that you can purchase a box of Bic pens for fifty cents? That is quite a bargain in my opinion (IMO, in Internet lingo). Did you know that if you shop at Staples and have a Business Rewards Card that you then get a check every few months? I got one for twenty dollars and I bought three count them three packages of paper, some shipping envelopes and two count them two boxes of Bic pens, and the whole transaction (with my Business Rewards Check) cost me forty-nine cents. Isn’t that exciting? Isn’t that just too too?
Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must write, I must eat various and sundried foodstuffs, I must do two sets of interview questions for upcoming interviews, and I must try to not be verbose on a Sunday. Today’s topic of discussion: It’s Sunday – free-for-all day, the day in which you get to post about any subject your collective hearts desire. I want to see some excellent topics and I want you all to break the verbose rule and be plenty verbose. I’ll be checking in quite often so post away, my pretties.
