The Safari Sure Doesn’t Trust Jambo

I recently went to Safari Park. I had thought that Jambo had been by various police forces on the East Coast, he had lived a clean life out here in Southern California. I had even chatted briefly with him. He likes cooking, baseball, and avoids politics. So okay.

But now his dodgy ways have contaminated the pristine life of San Diego County. So much so that there’s a sign just for him at the entrance to San Diego’s Safari Park. As you can see in the photo below.

It says, “Jambo!”

“Please Stop At The Toll Booth.”

Jambo has been warned.

The photographer has been fired

Buy Cheap Butt!

With all the inflation, shrinkflation, and greedflation going on lately, it is indeed heartening to discover that the  price of something we all love is actually going down.

Act now! Get your hands on some cheap butt. Mmm.

Misread Sign

While, in fast-food restaurant, I misread the following sign:

“Curly fries are friend magnets.”

I really thought for an instant that the sentence went as below.

“Curly fries are fried magnets.”

So that’s why I keep bumping into iron. On the plus side, I won’t need to take iron supplements. Oh, and people are strangely drawn to me.

Misheard Lyrics of Moody Blues – A Side

The superb Moody Blues had a hit with the great song “Nights in White Satin.”

Now, with most of my misheard lyrics, I eventually found out the correct words. However, I hereby swear to you that until yesterday, I thought they sang “knights” instead of “nights.” Not only does this change the song’s meaning somewhat, but it also completely upends my understanding of the universe. I mean, is nothing unchanging? Is there nothing immutable we can cling to in times of turmoil? Egad.

Here are the real lyrics:

“Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I’ve written
Never meaning to send”

Misheard lyrics #11

Which version do you prefer?

Misread News Item #2, The Earth

I misread the following news title today:

“Earth Has Tilted 31.5 Inches. That Shouldn’t Happen.”
Popular Mechanics, July 13, 2023

I really thought for an instant that the sentence went as below. I was quite worried for a bit. Wouldn’t climates and weather patterns be affected Alaska could become the new North Pole. The new one, Alaska, would never melt from global warming. Santa Claus wouldn’t have to worry about his workshop falling into the ocean. Besides, Santa would become American. USA! USA!
