Short Game 28
According to the Mister, this appeared in an AARP forum:
Q: Someone has told me that menopause is mentioned in the Bible. Is that true? Where can it be found?
A: Yes. Matthew 14:92: “And Mary rode Joseph’s ass all the way to Egypt.

Speaking of the Mister, he’s had two more infections recently (his immune system, in medical vernacular, sucks). Each go-round results in massive amounts of antibiotics and long recovery time. Scares me. I’m just saying.

Rules for portable food: Can’t remember if I ever posted my sandwich rules, but it never hurts to remind you:
- Never use mustard when mayo is available.
- If it is good, it will be better with butter.
- There’s no such thing as too much cheese.
- Tomatoes ruin anything.
- There is no such thing as spreadable meat.
- View ingredients with names like vegemite or marmite with suspicion.
- Grocers who sell Wonder bread are terrorists.

Speaking of rules, my favorite parrot site lists five parrot rules (What? Of course I have a favorite parrot site. Doesn’t everyone?)
- If you like it, it’s mine.
- If I can reach it, it’s mine.
- If I saw it first, it’s mine.
- If I can take it from you, it’s mine.
- If it’s mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
Personally, I think this rule book describes the current administration rather well.

A kind gent is pulling a thorne out of my paw. Rumor has it I will have a new site soon, that actually works. Stay tuned.

I lost most of my sense of scent some while ago. But lately I’ve been inhaling the aroma of dusty, dry grass everywhere I go. Could this be the scent of the inside of my own head? That would mean I am actually functioning under the brain power of a scarecrow or straw tick mattress. There are whole days on the back nine when I am pretty sure this is true.
