There is some theoretical amount of honesty that is indistinguishable from mental illness. —Scott Adams

Surgical solution was not popular. That’s great stuff. Thanks BoB.
Alas, my WordPress websites have been found out by the European Union copyright vultures, and anything by “other people” has been removed… which is, of course, everything.

Heh. My daughter was aghast when I told her the same thing. Until I pointed to the calendar.
I’ve frequently got in trouble for having, apparently, a deadpan expression when I think I’m grinning and winking and obviously saying, “I’m joking,” when what I’m saying seems so obviously absurd I can’t imagine being taken seriously. But the world is so absurd.
So, I rarely try to be fooling. Maybe once a year.

The best April Fool’s joke since the spaghetti trees. (Showing my age here! Youngsters won’t know what I’m talking about, of course.)

Yesterday morning, I came out of the bedroom, and pulled a stunt collapse on the floor. Hubs came rushing over from the kitchen, bent down over me, and anxiously asked, “Are you OK?” I rolled onto my back, opened one eye, and said, “April Fool!” I thought he was gonna crap a brick! Best funny I’ve ever had, at his expense. Hey! I’m 77 and he’s 80–you gotta have as much fun as you can, in the moment, ’cause tomorrow is promised to no one!
Plus: Keep moving fast, so Old Age cannot catch up with you!

Ah, yes – he’s 80, just finished 3 months’ cardio rehab after open-heart, triple-bypass-valve-replacement surgery, rides his bicycle 4-5 times per week to the gymn, and is a sure bet to make it to 100, long after I’ve warmed the crematorium. So, I thought the April Fool’s Day stunt was a good test of his survival. It worked!
