Time to Pet Your Peeve
Big News
The United States proposed stringent U.N. sanctions Monday against North Korea after it performed a nuclear test. America's UN ambassador John Bolton was so upset, he almost swallowed his moustache.
Google snapped up YouTube on Monday for $1.65 billion. Since Monday was a bank holiday, every ATM in California is now empty.
October 10th Now & Thenth
This is National School Lunch Week, a fun time when parents are invited to have lunch with their children in the school cafeteria and see if they can guess what they’re eating.
- And who knows, if you enjoy it, maybe your kids will start eating there.
This is National Pet Peeve Week, a time to let others know what really bugs you. So here's my list. I cannot stand:
- Beer companies that urge drunks to know when to say when. Expecting a drunk to be that smart is like expecting a politician to be humble.
- So-called authentic personal psychic friends who charge more per minute by phone than psychiatrists do in person.
- Post office machines that won't give you a penny when you buy a 39-cent stamp. I now have 183 one-cent stamps stuck to the inside of my wallet.
- Any store that's already decorated for Christmas. I just hate jack-o-lanterns that go "Ho-ho-ho."
On this day in 1886 Griswold Lorillard made history at a New York dance by becoming the first man ever to wear a dinner jacket in public. Well, the fashion world was just stunned!
- They probably thought he should have also worn pants.
Love & Learn
Today's Health Scene - Pinch the salt if you want to avoid high blood pressure.
Home Zone - Meyda Tiffany debuts two new Halloween stained-glass treats.
In Fashion: Parade of Masquerades - It's Halloween and time for festive fun when tricksters of all ages treat themselves to a little bit of fashion fantasy.
Shallow Thoughts
On Monday men all over America celebrated Columbus Day by getting lost.
The new TV shows are sort of a cornucopia of entertainment. However, there does seem to be more corn than ucopia.
Football doesn't make sense. The cheerleaders do backflips, headstands, and pyramids, but it's the players who have to take drug tests.
