In about twenty minutes, all roads in Fulton county will be declared as parking lots as sleepy kids drag themselves out of their houses with their new shiny backpacks and water bottles… with their parents in tow desperately trying to get them to stop for a minute and put on a fake smile for that all important phone picture to be posted on Facebook entitled “First day in school” !!!
One more? Please! Please! Please!
I was driving to the office yesterday from Lexington office on Man O War when I suddenly saw this road sign. Had to turn the car back, come around and pull over to take a picture.
Took me some time to realize why the sign was this way. Because “Grassy Creek is greener on the other side”. Haha 🙂
Okay, now I am done with terrible puns for this morning 🙂
Horses travel much better than we do!!! You have to come to Lexington – one of my most favorite small places in USA – to see a big Boeing converted to essentially a barn!! What is the difference between the first class and coach class, I will never know.
The horses often fly to and from the other end of the world – e.g. Saudi Arabia. This one, I am sure is headed to “Philly” 🙂
You see the extra rudder in the plane? You know why? To keep the plane “stable” 🙂 Evidently, this plane packs a little more “horsepower” than most similar planes 🙂
Ok, enough of terrible puns for one morning 🙂
This will probably be funny only to my Indian friends. This is not original. Found this on the Internet. I have just mildly changed the text.
This is apparently how Mona Lisa would look in India after having two kids, husband abroad for an onsite IT project, in laws moved in to “help out” and the maidservant has not shown up 🙂
Found this in a gym parking lot I had gone to last morning. I thought this a great example of product placement.
You know, you are distracted on your phone … you pull a little too close to the post … a familiar bump later, you curse yourself … come out and look at your bent bumper … and you go … “Now what do I do? Oh! I know! I have a number that I can call”! 🙂 🙂
Now that USA has won the top position in world soccer (What? There is a men’s version too? Why would we want to send our men in if the women can rule the world?? ), we believe we have earned the moral high ground to make some adjustments. We looked up Google – there is no country called Soccer or Football. So, we cannot attack it on trumped up charges. We will therefore settle for something less ambitious.
First, we will rename FIFA to FISA. To be honest, we will change the remaining F, I and A too moment we figure out what the heck they stand for. If only we could invite Canada alone, we would have gone with World Series or something like that. But now it involves many more countries. It is too confusing to us. We have to change our No Child Left Behind program to teach them that there are more countries than Good (Canada) and Bad (Mexico).
Second, we would like to call the game Nine Ball. We understand the ball is nine inches in diameter. Like we named our game Football since it is a foot long, it is only fair that now we rename what you call football as Nine Ball. And if Tom Brady ever plays this game, we might have to call it Eight Ball.
Third, we are dead against the concept of a ninety minute game getting over in ninety minutes. To us, this is socialism. Capitalism is about pulling in advertising company’s money on TV every time the ball bounces on the ground. See “NFL” for a reference. Applying the same rule to soccer – now renamed Nine Ball (see exception for Tom Brady), we should be able to extend the game to – Oh! four hours or so – which is enough to run adequate number of beer commercials.
Fourth, we think giving just one measly point every time you score a goal is a typical third world thinking. We believe in far more generous in points. Why? Because we can afford to. We have enough money to give more for every goal. Except when we play China. We hate debt collectors. We are like Greece, that way. So, we move that every goal be given 10 points. And every time you can get the ball over the ball line but not in the goal it should be 3 points. Not sure why. But then again, we are not sure why our quarter back stands ahead of the half back either 🙂
Fifth, we consider having one referee for the entire game a human labor exploitation. In any case, if one referee has to run up and down the whole field the whole time, it will run afoul of our minimum wage program. Unless you can get some referees to cross over the wall Donald Trump is building. In which case, we will see the other way. Do not get any labor from India, China or Philippines to run up and down the field though. We have run out of H1B visas till 2057. By the way, have you even seen how many referees we have in a football game? I mean “our” football game? We have a referee per yard of the field. That is all what our Surgeon General has said their BMI will let them move. Now, we even have a referee of referees. He is usually called “Instant Replay”. We recommend minimum seven referees for any soccer game.
We have a few more ideas. But right now, we have to go to a commercial break….
