Hate to break it to ya guys…

Don’t know that I would have made the same decision, nevertheless, he made it! Maybe he has a stack of old newspapers at home.

Someone asked if it were fiction or non-fiction. I replied:

Definitely starts with a non-fiction beginning, Natrual Disasters, Human Tragedy, Environmental Catastrophe rapidly moving to more global real-life Drama, Biological Warfare, Scientific Fraud and Corruption, Suspense, Intrigue, Mystery, Psychological Thriller, Mind Cotrol Propaganda Case Study, Grass Roots Protests and closing with Political Intrigue and high stakes drama with threatened Political Coup and leaving the door open to futher stories on Orwellian Nightmare, Global Food Shortages, Mass Starvations and Financial Meltdowns.

Something for everyone really!

Here’s your LOL for today!

Chutzpah is a Yiddish word meaning gall, brazen nerve, effrontery, sheer guts plus arrogance. As Leo Rosten writes, “no other word, and no other language,” can do it justice. This example is better than 1,000 words.

A little old lady sold pretzels on a street corner for 25 cents each.

Every day a young man would leave his office building at lunch time, and as he passed the pretzel stand, he would leave her a quarter, but never take a pretzel.

This went on for more than 3 years. The two of them never spoke.

One day, as the young man passed the old lady’s stand and left his quarter as usual, the pretzel lady spoke to him.

Without blinking an eye she said: “They’re 35 cents now.”

(If you never saw The Little Shop of Horrors it is a man-eating plant.)

I read a meme a while ago that said people who like to read would never finish cleaning an attic. I can see some truth in that!
