Bring Back the Milkman

Often enough, I only need a half gallon of milk, four sticks of butter, or a pound of cheese. Sure I could drive to the store, but it hardly seems worthwhile for just a half gallon of milk when the whole process of driving to the supermarket, parking, finding the milk, checking out, leaving the parking lot, and driving home.

If only there were a simple, convenient way to buy a small amount of dairy. Oh wait, there was. We called him the milkman. We place an order on our door step and he’d bring it from the stores of his truck.

Easy peasy.

And quite often the milkman brought other products as well. Here’s what I remember about the milkmen from the various towns of my youth.

Arcadia, California: The milk truck brought milk and I believe butter.

Earlwood, Australia: The milk truck brought milk and I believe butter and eggs.

Voorburg, Netherlands: The milk truck carried: milk, eggs, cheese, cans of soups, soda, and beer! I believe the milkman also delivered juice and jams.

I want a milkman who will bring all the items his counterpart in the Netherlands did. I want it! I want it!

Going to the store takes too long, cars are driven by nuts, and the stores are far too peoply.

I am willing to pay more for this service than from stores. I worked and saved all my life so I can now afford this service to my door.

Please make this happen. Thank you.

And please also let me know what your milkman delivered? Thanks again.

I am Running for the Speaker of the House

Tantrums by various politicians are keeping America from electing a Speaker of the House. America needs a Speaker of the House to move various bills toward legislation. I can do this. At least, I won’t stop it, especially the ones with bipartisan support.

People across America and the world tire of politicos throwing hissy fits on camera. Will I throw a hissy fit on camera? No, I am a confirmed introvert. I shall strive mightly to avoid ever appearing on tv or in print.

What will I do to reduce conflict in the House of Representatives (HORs)? Make midday naptimes mandatory for this august body. Naps in kindergarten prevented the kids from getting overtired and fusing. It will also work in the HORs.

There, what more do you need to know about me?

Oh, and save our bees.

And I like to cook. Would you like a homemade cookie?

Be Careful What You Ask For

Do they really want to always hire a retired, card-carrying introvert whose back hurts after standing on his feet for more than 10 minutes?

Besides:

“I don’t want to belong to any club that would accept me as one of its members.”

— Groucho Marx

Uh oh

Misheard Lyrics of Jan and Dean

The wonderful Jan and Dean had a hit with their great song “Poor Little Puppet.”

Am I the only one who thought this duo sang “licks” instead of “pulls?” It kinda changes the meaning a bit, makes it racier in fact. And honestly, wouldn’t you think a beautiful woman licking her finger at you is a pretty strong sign? Can you blame the man who sees the finger-licking good sign and becomes her puppet?

Here are the real lyrics:

Poor little puppet, she’s got him tied to a string
That poor little thing, he does what she wants
Every time she pulls her finger
Poor little puppet

Misheard lyrics #12

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
