5 Things We Know On A Sunday

1. I’m convinced that some of the longest conversations I have with my wife these days are when she’s trying to explain to me what kind of coffee to buy at the grocery store over the phone…. You go down the aisle and there is no “coffee”. There are, however 482 kinds of boxes and pods and canisters and whatnot. None of which look like the coffee I grew up on. And that, is why I enjoy Diet Coke in the morning!
2. In a Jerry Seinfeld voice… what’s the deal with liberals and their issues with bakeries? The politics of pastries is something that most Conservatives never think about. We just eat donuts. Still, Whoopi Goldberg is the latest liberal to think some bakery in Staten Island wronged her… In the words of the NCY politico defending the bakery, ” Not everyone wakes up each morning thinking only about politics.”. Might be sage advice for some on the Left these days. . .
3. Top 3 All-Time Greatest “Guilty Pleasure Bands To Listen To”: No. 3. The Bee Gees. Maybe they shouldn’t be on the list. Maybe Disco didn’t really kill off coolness in America. Maybe, without The Bee Gees there’s no Punk Music and The Clash. I don’t know, but I do know that the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever rocks. No. 2. WHAM! Sorry. If you’re of a certain age from the mid-80s, the music works. We sang along, danced and then later said… I don’t think he’s singing about a chick… Oh well. It was good music. No. 1. The Monkees. The Pre-Fab Four made some great music. Maybe we shouldn’t feel guilty listening and loving them decades later after hearing some of the dreck that’s come out over the years…but we will put them Number One. Because at the end of the day, you’re listening to the Monkees, and you like to Monkey Around. Don’t let anyone put you down!
4. The Jake Paul/Mike Tyson “fight” proves once again that P.T. Barnum was right. Even if he never actually said, “A sucker is born every minute”, the sentiment remains to this day. If you wonder how some folks get lots of money, or how certain folks end up getting millions and millions to waste on a political campaign… we give you this. And folks think Mike Tyson is dumb….
5. If cranberry sauce is so awesome, why don’t we have it the other 51 weeks out of the year? Fact. No one really likes it. They just give in to pressure to eat it at Thanksgiving. Don’t give in this year. Have some queso or guacamole instead. Your family and friends will thank you!
