TIDBITS

1) What if you need to compete in Olympic weightlifting and then go right away to a fancy dinner where you’re going to propose to your true love? You really don’t want to show up sweaty and stinking. You truly want to shower and scrub yourself all over with Strawberry Shea Butter Soap. You’d be clean and smell like happiness. But what if you don’t have the time for a shower? What to do? May I suggest ditching your cast-iron weights in favor of ones made from Strawberry Shea Butter? The heat generated from you workout will make the strawberry soap melt all over you. You’ll be getting squeaky clean while you compete for the gold.

Misheard Lyrics of Little River Band

The great group Little River Band had a big hit with “Lonesome Loser.” The song contained the following lyrics:

“Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
“Beaten by the queen of hearts every time.”

I, however, often heard:

“Have you heard about the loathsome loser?”

Now this changes the meaning a bit. Now if the protagonist, the Loathsome Loser, perpetually antagonized the queen by acting loathsome around her, it’s quite understandable that she would want to beat him. Indeed, I am forced to admit I don’t understand why anyone would want to sing the praises of a loathsome man. In some ways, I’m glad that he loses. However, while I understand why the queen would want to commit grievous bodily harm against such a reprobate,  I don’t think her actions merit praise either.
