Very Random Thoughts - September 2018



  • According to the announcers, every game is fully populated with the best players ever. It doesn't matter which sport, amateur or pro.
  • College football really needs to stop these games where Big Time Major University (BTMU) plays West South Middle Community College (WSMCC). The games are boring routs and people get injured. 
  • Does it make any sense that MLB teams play the first 135 games with a 25 man roster then get to have a 40 man roster for the last 25 or so games? If anything, it should be the other way around, 40 to start and 25 after April.
  • I find it very difficult to be tolerant of those who are intolerant. It's a conundrum.
  • Is there such a thing as low holy days?
  • Once again we have dozens of TV weather and news folks standing outside during hurricane Florence so we can see that it is rainy and windy. Useless hyperbole. 
  • I no longer want the president to be older than I am. The same goes for those in Congress.
  • I know Amazon has great technology but it seems the algorithm that chooses the shipping box size is less than efficient. The box is often two, three, four times larger than needed. 
  • Back in the old days you could slide across the car front seat and get out or in at the curb. No opening a car door into traffic.
  • The other big advantage of bench seats was your girlfriend could sit right next to you. You could also squeeze four or five folks in the front seat when necessary.
  • I think every car company has at least one J.D. Power 
    excellence award for something. A very exclusive award.
  • Has anyone actually bought a garage at a garage sale? 
  • Why is there a block in the back penalty on almost every punt and kickoff return play? 
  • The question came up, why do mosquitoes always bite the ankles? 
  • Have we finally reached the saturation point on pumpkin spice flavored stuff? More items, longer season every year.
  • Apparently, people in Washington DC are incapable of a simple yes or no answers. The longer and more convoluted the answer, or non-answer, the better.
