but it beats the alternative.

At least

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/03/2022:  07:29:24

, so I’m told.

How that has been determined

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/03/2022:  08:52:38

is a mystery for eggheads to explore.

I don’t know anybody

OM45GE - Posted - 03/03/2022:  11:39:07

who likes being treated like a child.

That’s why my ex

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/03/2022:  14:08:30

-wife left me on her 19th birthday.

It’s beginning to look

OM45GE - Posted - 03/03/2022:  18:26:55

like I’m not going to have to get out of my PJ’s today.



That’s a pretty major

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/03/2022:  19:16:57

decision and bold move for me to consider.

Lately I’ve been

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/03/2022:  19:42:19

building a barricade in my basement.

My bucktoothed neighbour told me there’s an impending Great Reset

OM45GE - Posted - 03/04/2022:  03:24:28

which I don’t really understand except that it’s something to do with world finances.

I need to protect my

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/04/2022:  05:07:40

personal interests so I have decided to take drastic measures.

Lately things have irritated me

OM45GE - Posted - 03/04/2022:  05:49:31

that used to completely piss me off which I guess is an improvement.

However, I still

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/04/2022:  10:21:56

throw fits and shout and rant over at Speaker’s Corner.

My shrink

.

OM45GE - Posted - 03/04/2022:  10:59:38

wants me do try regression therapy but warned that it might not work with me.

Apparently, being in your second childhood

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/04/2022:  23:05:23

brings back painful memories of the dentist chair.

My cavities

OM45GE - Posted - 03/05/2022:  03:37:59

have cavities and I have so many fillings silver prospectors keep showing up trying to stake a claim.

I tell them that

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/07/2022:  11:39:32

their pick axes are too big.



My old silver dimes

Edited by - chuckv97 on 03/07/2022 11:40:07

OM45GE - Posted - 03/08/2022:  03:07:05

are worth more as scrap silver than their face value.

I’m still not going to

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/09/2022:  20:56:19

trade them in until silver hits $100 an ounce.

It’ll fund my

OM45GE - Posted - 03/10/2022:  09:50:45

banjo acquisition syndrome.

I currently have

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/10/2022:  14:33:30

233 banjos in my hayloft for safekeeping.

But yet the mice make nests

OM45GE - Posted - 03/11/2022:  03:47:21

in the resonators and like to use the plush padding from the cases for warmth.

So now I have 233

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/11/2022:  06:50:35

feces-ridden banjos that only a luthier could love.

My local luthier has

OM45GE - Posted - 03/11/2022:  17:23:39

stopped taking my phone calls.

I don’t know if

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/11/2022:  17:33:52

it’s his abhorrence of mice feces or my halitosis.

When he sees me coming

OM45GE - Posted - 03/12/2022:  04:30:44

he puts on three face masks an I know he’s fully vaccinated.

Someday I’m going to surprise him and

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/12/2022:  08:33:33

pay my 5 year old bill for $627 that he annoyingly reminds me about.

His wife plays the accordion

1935tb-11 - Posted - 03/13/2022:  11:19:16

to counter act his banjo

my wife found out about my

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/13/2022:  12:17:41

banjo AS and called her loco psychologist friend.

She drives a hard bargain

OM45GE - Posted - 03/14/2022:  03:51:41

and has a new demand for me if I want to sleep in the big bed.

She wants me to

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/14/2022:  05:46:28

attend Banjo Acquisition Syndrome Anonymous meetings.

I’ll go if

OM45GE - Posted - 03/14/2022:  08:50:22

she’ll attend the Naggers Anonymous Group.

I told her that and she promptly

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/14/2022:  11:55:03

threw a pillow and blanket on the couch.

I took that to mean

OM45GE - Posted - 03/15/2022:  03:07:21

I wasn’t going to get lucky that night,

On the positive side,

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/15/2022:  10:17:17

I won’t have to put up with her gaseous emissions and snoring.

Febreeze and ear plugs

OM45GE - Posted - 03/15/2022:  17:12:51

can only do so much.

Many is the night I’ve had to

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/15/2022:  17:42:52

kick her out of the bedroom.

Saying “I do”

OM45GE - Posted - 03/16/2022:  03:22:39

had implications beyond my wildest dreams.

To think that I could have

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/16/2022:  09:53:49

married Penelope Peters from my English class with Mrs. Lindsay.

Her Dad

OM45GE - Posted - 03/16/2022:  14:01:12

didn’t exactly approve of me but frankly, I didn’t think much of him either.

I had to pretend

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/16/2022:  14:22:07

I was a card-carrying conservative with hawkish leanings.

My tie-dyed shirt

OM45GE - Posted - 03/17/2022:  04:04:41

sort of gave my true political stance away.

That and my

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/17/2022:  08:38:05

peace-symbol earring and the “Pat Paulson For President” bumper sticker.

Penelope’s Dad’s idea of a fun time

OM45GE - Posted - 03/17/2022:  11:51:34

was coal rolling EV’s and blocking charging stations.

He thought

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/17/2022:  21:36:20

snowflakes were taking over his country.

He got his come-uppance

OM45GE - Posted - 03/18/2022:  03:59:13

when one of those tree hugging, Tesla driving, pinko liberal snowflakes turned out to be bunch bigger than him and took serious exception to his foolishness.

He quickly found himself

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/18/2022:  10:17:18

hanging upside down by his feet from a juice bar ceiling.

Penelope had to

OM45GE - Posted - 03/18/2022:  17:22:37

sit down after her hysterical laughter made her dizzy.

After she caught her breath,

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/18/2022:  19:05:33

she cut him down to size with a long-winded harangue about his annoying ways.

The she left for the coast

OM45GE - Posted - 03/19/2022:  05:25:11

with the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost.

Nobody understood
