Today at work Ray got frustrated with his tape measure. He said, “This stupid thing. I’m going to burn it.”
Ray then paused, thought for a second, and muttered to himself, “Will this burn?”

Happiness
I don’t mean to brag but I had the best weekend ever. I spent the whole time smiling and laughing. And my cheeks don’t even hurt.

How to Tell If You’re in Garrett, Indiana
A couple of days ago I went to the bank. As I got out of the car, I saw a rather large lady running (or waddling quickly) down the sidewalk screaming at the top of her lungs “GIVE ME BACK MY BABY!!!!!!!”
It wasn’t unlike watching “Cops” live.
And that’s how you know you’re in Garrett, Indiana.

I Think I’m Dead
You know in the movies when people die but don’t realize it because they’re still walking around and can’t figure out why people are ignoring them? And of course, no one looks or talks to them because they can’t see dead people (unlike Haley Joel Osment)?
Today was one of those days because no less than [...]
