Snow!

Okay, I suppose it's technically a "wintery mix," but there are actual flakes in there with the rain.

But still! Snow!

Love it!

A Minor Quibble

Dear Google Spell Check,
As a reminder, turkeys are done, people are finished.
Please do not ask me if I am "done spell check." I am not done. I am finished.
Thank you,
Ryan

McFlipper

From Phil:
I just saw my reflection. I look like Billy Crystal playing a younger version of himself in When Harry Met Sally.

You've been making me laugh for nigh on 13 years and remain the only person who always gets all my jokes. A man among men, my friend.

It Is The Way To Go

Indiom [in-dee-uhm] –noun (derived from the english word idiom)

a figure of speech or a colloquial term or phrase whose meaning cannot be deduced by the literal translation or arrangement of its words. An indiom can be a reordering of the words that make up recognized idioms; the use of several words to describe an existing word; the misuse of an idiom or word in a way that makes it mean something radically different and/or hilarious. Indioms are typically coined by Indian-born men over the age of 60.

For example, when discussing the death of Jack Kemp this spring, Dr Sharma had this to say,

"Well, he'd had cancer since yesterday."

Mr Brown

So, last night I was walking home down 5th Ave.
I spied a tall man in blue jeans with long, curly grey hair.
"Who does that guy think he is, Billy Connolly?"
Alas, it was!
Yes!
So, Billy Connolly! Strolled 6 blocks down 5th Ave, he and I.
Nice legs, Billy.
Oh Billy!

It's All Right

So much easier to come home when your bell rings early Sunday morning with friends bearing gifts- oj, coffee, the paper and a bottle of Moet. Oh, and Sam Cooke on the stereo.

Not bad. Not bad at'all.

Check out the front pg of the automobile sections. Cadillac station wagon! Be still my beating heart! Before I ever wanted a Mercedes wagon, I wanted a Cadillac.

Perhaps dreams really do come true.

Edited to add:
Once again, my Guy Friday comes through:
If you can wait for it, we could go halvsies on a CTV-S Wagon. You'd get a non-conformist leather lined grocery getter.I'd get a super charged 550 bhp baloney smoker.

A man among men you are, my friend. A man among men.
