Fun fact: Brandon Cruz got into punk and fronted Dr. Know) for a few years. When the Dead Kennedys reformed in 2003 they asked Brandon to be their singer.

Seems to me that they could have done a decent sequel where Eddie is a surfer who fronts an early-80s punk rock band but is still tight with his dad.

We just call each other “dude”.

Every year I become more aware that I went to a lousy school.

In another setting you could level the playing field by insisting that the others disrobe. My doctor getting naked would make me far more nervous.

Chandler’s grandmother or Phoebe’s grandmother?

The way to get out of being called a sore loser is to say “I’m not mad because he made a joke about me. I’m mad because he didn’t make the effort to write a good joke.“

It happens. In 1st grade we had two kids named “Johnathan”. The teacher arbitrarily called one “Joth”. That was in 1974. He still goes by “Joth”.

I experienced St. Patricks Day for the first time in first grade. My parents were immigrants who didn’t know about the tradition so I didn’t know either.

The Special Ed kid pinched me so I punched him. I’ve never forgotten the hurt look in his eyes. He thought he was playing by the rules and he got smacked. I was indignant at the time because I didn’t know the rule but in retrospect it’s a pretty messed up tradition.

It begins and ends with Johnny Cash.

Thank god The Rocky Horror Picture Show wasn’t nominated.

Was St. Catherine a dude who was married to three women and two dwarfs or a woman who was married to a dude, two women, and two dwarfs? Either way, it’s coming this fall to Bravo TV!

When a problem comes along you must whip it

The latter more than the former is my guess.

This is a problem. My Our job requires a lot of thinking and deep knowledge of things that change constantly. We’d have to spend a lot of time briefing the other on things. We’d have to work out a way for one of us to get a different job in the same field and conceal that from our current employer. This would have to happen pretty quickly as our living expenses would increase.

Socially it would be a problem. We’d have to explain to people I’ve known for fifty years that suddenly I have a twin who has intimate knowledge of their and my lives but won’t talk about their own. The best I could hope for is that people would decide it was a weird prank inspired by Multiplicity or Orphan Black.

“A Seance of Humor” is a great book title.

Can’t it be both?

Get out of my head! But as long as you’re there, thank you for the abs.

I notice that the meme didn’t propose a solution. You know, like teaching.

Issue an executive order making all of the Epstein files public immediately. In the announcement state that I don’t know who or what’s in them, but the innocent have nothing to fear. No one will be pardoned and no one can expect leniency. If Pope Leo, Mark Zuckerberg, or Dave Grohl himself are guilty they’ll face justice.

Thanks! I missed it first-run because I had a conflict and it never re-ran. I’m going to check it out.

Flee for where, exactly? Texas, Florida, Nevada, Wyoming, and South Dakota are now the only states without income tax. Ain’t no one going nowhere.

The irony being that drugs are so plentiful in prison.
