Clearing The Page
Sometimes it is best to start fresh.
As you can tell from the picture, My Odd Sock’s Topic/Idea page is plumb-full of scribbles, notes and enough unfunny jokes to remind one of an Adam Sandler movie (Or my stand-up act)!
But before I begin a new Topic/Idea page in my notebook, let’s clear out some leftover bits that have become as stale as a three-day-old doughnut….
Street Sign
I found this sign in my neighborhood.
Reading this, I feel bad for the kids who live in the area.
Being labeled as “Slow” can’t be good for their young, self-image!
To keep those kids in a positive frame of mind, this sign needs some punctuation.
A comma.
A period.
Something to break it up for cryin’ out loud!
Geez, I’m just saying.
Celebrity Look-Alike
Two folks from TV’s Food Network….
Cutie-pie chef Anne Burrell.
How does she get her hair to stand up like that?
And her twin…..
…celebrity chef and TV personality Guy Fieri.
These two must spend a fortune in hair-car products!
It always bothers me how Guy Fieri wears his sunglasses hooked on his ears and hanging around the back of his neck.
OK, you are cool, I get it.
Now put your glasses where the rest of us middle-age nerds do—-in your shirt pocket!
Computer Fun
I saw this image recently on my computer screen.
Wonderful.
Now, my laptop is making fun of my (lack-of) social calender!
VERY funny. Just keep it up laptop. You know you can be replaced with an iPad.
Medicine Cabinet
Here is a product I found in the medicine cabinet of our bathroom.
“Tylenol Cold & Flu Severe.”
The cold & flu stuff I understand….it’s the “Severe” designation I have a problem with!
When exactly do you cross the line with a “severe” virus?
If you’re spewing liver bile…Is that “severe” enough?
If your head is producing more mucus than a day-care of pre-schoolers…would you call that “severe?”
I’m thinking if you need anything labeled “severe,” maybe you should cut your loses–and call a friggin doctor!
Well, that clears up the old Topic/Idea page.
Time to start a new one and cross my fingers hoping the ideas will come to fill it in!

No, don’t toss that page — there are many good topics there! Maybe the street sign meant that there were 35 slow children there — that’s a lot for a small area! ;->
I love Anne Burrell, but Guy, not so much.
Keep making us laugh!!!
Peace,
Muff
If you draw a beard on Anne Burrell, the anti-gravity ‘do suddenly makes more sense.
This is ridiculous! By the way…when do you cross the line from “over doing it” to a “relapse”? When do you stumble to your neuros office and yell and scream about sandpaper hands, numb feet and tilt a whirl brain? Is there something I can take? I will opt for the severe! Thanks for making me chuckle today.
