Good morning crew,
Old Mason and his wife are throwing a theme party this
Saturday night. That must be a consequence of being married.
Themes, not parties. Back in the day we never had themes. We
had lots of beer. Frequently a barbecue or maybe a turkey in
the oven. And occasionally vomiting. But never a theme.
But, I'm not prejudiced.
So the theme is The 1980s. I told the girlfriend about it
and she became all excited about putting an 80s-style outfit
together; speculating on where she can buy leg-warmers and
how much it would cost to "crimp" her hair.
"Do you have any 80s style clothes?" she asked me.
"All of my clothes are 80s style," I told her. "My fashion
sense hasn't changed much in 25 years."
Laugh it up,
Joe

Home Selling Mistakes
It's tough enough selling a home nowadays. Don't make the
mistakes that turned off these commenters on the City Room
blog of The New York Times:
"It was a good house, well-maintained. But the bed with the
person in it was off-putting."
"The family dog, long departed, was stuffed and standing
next to the fireplace. RIP Sparky."
"The main distraction was dirt. Although there was the tiny
child who proudly showed us the refrigerator full of 'Daddy's
beer' just outside an upstairs bedroom."
*-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes ---------------*
An acquaintance of mine was hired as a research assistant
by the physics department of a West Coast university to
investigate the thermodynamic properties of wood. Two weeks
after starting work he was approached by an encyclopedia
salesman who explained that purchase of the encyclopedia
entitled the buyer to have any three special questions
answered completely. To save himself a great deal of work,
the researcher bought the encyclopedia, stipulating for his
first free question a full dissertation on the thermodynamic
properties of wood.
Three weeks later the head of the physics department called
the research assistant into his office and said, "We have a
request from an encyclopedia company. One of their customers
has asked for a report on the thermodynamic properties of
wood. Please prepare the report for them."
