I'm a Doctor, Not a Kitchen Appliance!
by Steve West on June 4, 2025
My toaster has a timer on it that let's you know when it's finished. It seems a little silly to add a timer beeping that's a redundant addition to the toast loudly popping up from the machine that means the same thing. So now, because the timer emits a sound eerily similar to an EKG indicating flatline, every time it goes off I'll say to Brenda, "He's bread, Jim."

We (Brenda, Lauren and me) just returned from the Kennedy Center where we saw the Blue Man Group. This was Lauren's birthday gift - her birthday was in May and that's when we ordered tickets, but the show wasn't until today. It was worth every cent, and I envy Scott who lives semi-close to their permanent theater in Orlando. Go »How Steve Proposed

You're lucky that it's not a smart toaster that texts you that your toast is ready, blogs about it, and then shares the blog post across all of your social media. "She cannae make much more, cap'n!"
