    I hate people being referred to as Joseph Blow Sr. His given name is Joseph Blow. And a son should only use Jr. in his full name. No Joe Blow Jr. And Jr. should only be used when the name is the same, including middle name.

    A fence won't be nearly enough, living next to a true mensch is a rarity.

    We were able to remove foreign material from his colon. We still don’t know if it’s rubber, or liner, but it’s some kind of trash. It has been there so long it was adhering to the lining of his colon. And there was a lot of it, in many pieces.

    There are no canaries on the Canary Islands.

    And as for the Virgin Islands ... there are no canaries there, either.

    On my new patio at my new house in our new neighborhood and having a 7&7 and listening to The Gaslight Anthem. Some nights are good.

    Miles Davis and the Cool, goddam right.

    For all the times I have seen people use the fire escape in a movie or TV show, I have never seen a person use one in real life.

    Same with quicksand. People died in quicksand in so many old movies/TV shows but I've never heard of that happening in real life.

    There's no special leather treatment in waterproof boots. They're waterproof due to the neoprene liner glued inside the boots. If the liner is loose, it means the boots violate the manufacturer's one-year warranty. Take them back where you bought them.
