IT'S TIME FOR MORE *DOWN HOME WISDOM* -- for JUST A MINUTE on Friday 120217

Great to have you here joining in a bit of relaxation.

 

It’s been mentioned to me several times that folks like a break from the overstuffed political information that comes to us day by day – even from the folks over in Playfair at the Bait Shop and Sushi Bar where they’re usually always ready to talk things over for a  while.

 

But a steady diet of ‘who shot John’ or who is it who wants to fill John’s britches with a bit of bird shot… well that gets old quick.  And with this infernal non-schedule of beginning one campaign right smack up against another one ending wears out the ear drums or reading glasses or whatever.

 

Anyway the Bait Shop & Sushi Bar folks like to talk about something else besides the political world now and then – and we have access to some random thoughts and short bits of wisdom that come in over-the-transom … so we’re glad to pass them along. That way it might start another conversation in another direction and you’d get a bit of relief.

 

So… here goes… the tape will start playing and you can give us your reaction whenever it’s convenient. I hope you like the material. We didn’t hire a gaggle of gag writers to work it up… these are just plain observations by just plain people and I pick ‘em out at random. Hope you enjoy. Let me know one way or ‘tother .

 

Cordially, IN HIM

“JUST A MINUTE”

IT’S TIME FOR MORE DOWN HOME WISDOM

          Just a Minute: Several folks have told me they enjoy a break from “too much politics” when we quote some random thoughts from just plain folks: So here are some to savor over the weekend.

n     I had to look up what ‘parlous’ meant: it means perilous; dangerous or obsolete. – I had to wait ‘till Age 80 to find out.

n     A woman can stand anything but being forgotten, or not needed. – Age 89

n     Picking out a lunch box for an eight-year old is a major decision. – Age 30

n     It’s never too late to start reading the Bible. – Age 34

n     If you throw ten socks in the washer only nine will come out. – Age 27

n     My prayer most often is: “Lord please keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth.” – Age 34

n     Last one: When I’ve acted really dumb and I think no one’s watching, the guy I wanted most to impress is.  – Age 13

Have a great weekend – forget politics for a while. <> I’m Jack Buttram. (END)
