Random Thoughts While Stuck in Traffic
by Steve West on October 30, 2021

There's a serious traffic jam on the 495 Washington beltway that I happen to be stuck in. It's worse than stop & go, stop & go - it's more like stooooooop & go, stoooooooooooop & go. Trying to stay awake, my mind is wandering, giving me images and sounds.
*If I were to open a furniture store, I would call it the Sit Shack. Or maybe a DIY surgery shop called Suture Self.
*Brenda's music teacher friend told her she's fond of tongue twisters which she uses as lip looseners for her trumpet players. It seems to me the opposite would happen. Lip lock. But I offered her 'How many Lowe's could Rob Lowe rob if Rob Lowe could rob Lowe's.' She was only mildly amused.
*Try not to be selfish this Hallowen. Vampires suck your blood for the vitamin C it contains because they can't go out in the sun. Did you ever think about that? No. Because all you think about is yourself. - That'll probably find its way to Facebook.
Oooooo... traffic is moving 10 mph, now! Gotta go.

Barbie Gets Implants
In the early ‘90’s, I heard a stand-up routine by Cathy Ladman in which she was buying a Barbie doll as a birthday present for her niece. She’s looking at the doll displays and her eye catches a “Gift-Giving Ken”. She says, I really don’t think this is gonna prepare her for adult relationships. Go »
The Green Thing
While checking out at the grocery, I overheard the young cashier suggest to an older woman in front of me, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren’t good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, “We didn’t have this green thing back in my early days.” The clerk responded, “That’s our problem today. Go »
Compassion
I haven't posted since the incident in January and used that time to do a lot of soul-searching. A lot of it was fruitless. I told my boss' boss of the circumstances behind my asking for a day off because my boss was vacationing at the time. Go »

Kelly collects puns for her future businesses. She wants to open a rug shop called La Brea Carpets, a storage facility called The Best Little Warehouse in Texas, and a transportation service called No Prob Limo.
