I really hadn't tuned into the fact that it's May already until I checked the mail box here at the Peak yesterday and today to discover score sheets for the Collingwood and District Slo-Pitch League. Geez, summer has to be right around the corner. Even Brent Kelly said on my CHATS program this morning, he even remembered his Dad Barry telling him at the age of three, the older you get, the faster life passes by! And he concurred with that fact. As for me, I feel like my life at this point is up to Warp Speed! On well, we're not here for a long time, so we may as well make it a good time.
You have to admit at times, when drunks aren't behind the wheel, they can be quite humorous! Check this out...
A man and his wife were awakened at 3:00 am by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
'Not a chance,' says the husband, 'it is 3:00 in the morning!'
He slams the door and returns to bed.
'Who was that?' asked his wife.
'Just some drunk guy asking for a push,' he answers.
'Did you help him?' she asks.
'No, I did not, it is 3:00 in the morning and it is pouring rain out there!'
'Well, you have a short memory,' says his wife. 'Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!'
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain. He calls out into the dark, 'Hello, are you still there?'
'Yes,' comes back the answer.
'Do you still need a push?' calls out the husband.
'Yes, please!' comes the reply from the dark.
'Where are you?' asks the husband.
'Over here on the swings,' replied the drunk.
