| The grocery store in my town closes absurdly early. I was going to go over there for a couple of items but my nephew pointed out that they are already closed. |

| Never slam a door. I gather the idea is that it's never wise to part on bad terms, however tempting that may be. A bloke at work left to start a small business, and left a strongly-worded critique of the people he'd worked for behind, which they deserved. But unfortunately his business failed, and ... |

| I saw a film, way back in the late 90s called The Entire History of the Louisiana Purchase that has haunted me ever since. It was so strange, an arthouse pseudo-documentary that came out around the same time as Blair Witch Project and shared that grainy, camcorder look. I remember a woman microwavi... |

| What always surprised me was the number of people who would trade in their car every year for a new car. That's a sucker move. My current car is a 2015 Ford. I bought it in 2017 and it works fine. I really don't drive much (the furtherest I've been from home in twenty five years is about 200 miles).... |

| The catfish special at the local cafe. It wasn't very good catfish at all and was horribly overpriced. It didn't have much flavor and what flavor it did have was more from cooking it in old oil. I don't eat out very often -- usually one or two times a month. I had intended to go to the drug store in... |

| I ordered the Instant Pot. Both WalMart and Amazon were out of the model I wanted. WalMart showed a number of them with labels like "5 in stock" but then when you clicked on it to try to buy, it told you it was out of stock. That got really aggravating. I ended up finding one similar to th... |

| I'm not sure that these are proper proverbs, but here goes: 1) A little bird was flying during a blizzard. It was so cold that the bird couldn’t fly anymore and fell down and landed near some barn. While lying down helpless on the ground, a cow came by and crapped on him. The poop was so warm that t... |

| When President Kennedy was assassinated, the assassination coverage was on tv that entire weekend. For an elementary school kid, there was nothing on at all -- just useless news coverage. Except on Saturday night, one channel actually showed a movie. I watched it and had no idea what the movie was. ... |
