Thought for the day ~ Albert Einstein
Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That’s relativity.
It’s All About the Beer
Yesterday’s quote from Dave Barry set the tone for the rest of the posts. It was all about the beer. I think that’s kind of funny, since Jeff lives in a state with Sunday blue laws. But Beer was a motivator for yesterday.
While the official story is that parents kept their kids home in protest, the real story is much easier to swallow. All of the parents were out lamenting that the school where they beat up their first skinny kid for his lunch money was going to be closed. As the evening wore on the drink flowed more freely, and soon they were all drunk in some neighborhood bar. It would have ended there with them going home and sending the kids off to school the next day, if only Jeff hadn’t been standing at the front door with an air horn accosting everyone that tried to leave without at least one more drink, keeping the hapless parents trapped until 4 in the morning. And hence, they were too drunk, or hung over to get their little tikes off to school.
The police really just need someone to watch the fridge in their breakroom. The chief is pretty sure Barney is nicking his beer.
Tune in tomorrow for more fun with small towns and the criminals that love them.
