I dated the assistant band director when I was in high school even though she was a year older and nearly as tall; she was considerate enough not to wear her high-heel boots then!

As a child, I used to enjoy putting 45 rpm records on at 33, or 78 just to make the voices sound different. And, by doing so, I sussed out Pinky and Perky big time!

"Regrets, I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention." Which I just did. Although, logically, I wouldn't need to. Because there is too few to mention. Even though I did mention them.
What an utterly stupid lyric that is.

We've been playing a lot of Django Reinhardt and Edith at the bike shop lately; it's a nice contrast to the "classic rock" and bossa nova we usually play for the customers during the summer months. People seem to be surprised when they walk into a bikeararium and find French cafe jazz waiting for them, but I've yet to hear a complaint.

Like Chesterton, whose maxim was
"In matters of religion and matrimony I never give any advice because I don't have anybody's torments in this world or the next laid at my door."
