Isn't that much better than being paranoid? Ever feel like you can float and sell a lot of hats at the same time?

Folks, summer is in full swing so if you are going to go boating, please stay at home and turn your thermostat to 81 degrees. Most boating accidents occur at home, so remember not to do anything while you are at home...especially boating. You're not listening to any of this, are you? You're just going go ahead and do anything you want, aren't you? Well, so be it. I've done all I can do.

I'm the youngest in my family and for a time there, the smallest. When I was seven, my dad took me to the circus in his coat pocket. A clown put me inside a balloon animal, a poodle, I believe. That was the last time I ever saw my Dad. My mom used to say, "Remember that time a clown put you in a balloon animal?" "Yeah." "Well, your father ran off and joined that place." Today I'm 6'4" and I'm not from Chester, Ohio. Billy is, the kid that got the twisted poodle.

Don't substitute freshness for nudity. Approach with a confident stride, head up, shoulders back. Extend your arm, offer your hand and say, "What planet are you from". Today's a good day to start something new and not finish it, like a puzzle, or a goal. Friday is your action day, or "best day" for hanging out with back stabbers, pimps, thieves and a family whose been shot out of a cannon for generations. Eat the plate, too!
