Out of Bounds


Here’s what I have to deal with on an ongoing basis:

  • “I know you have a system of dealing with these kind of things, but I’m special.” Yes, indeed.
  • “What is your blog about?” I’m so happy you asked. Reading is so 1990ies.
  • “Why aren’t you married yet?” Because I’m still tossing around ideas on pulling it off with a guarantee you won’t show up.
  • “Drinking alone is a sign of oncoming alcoholism.”
    “Okay… Do you want to drink with me?”
    “No, I don’t drink.”
  • “A bit more to the left” - said the blind man with a cane, to the sharpshooter with a scope.

I’m sure there are others, but I’ll end it while the momentum is still strong. Maybe it’ll catapult you into my previous entry, which has been described by the New York Times as “One of the most ground-breaking and provocative blog entries of 2006″. If you find the link to the review, send it my way.

    I need to just print this one off and hang it on my door. Then maybe some of the stupid questions that I get asked or problems that people complain to me about won’t happen.

    Thanks Chris. :) In light of my good mood, here’s a bonus:

    “What’s the address?” and “How would you drive there had you been coming from where I’m coming from?” are two different questions. No, really.

    Have a great weekend!
