RANDOM THOUGHTS by Shane . . . . Dec 2014 1 ) Uncle Shane’s Cardinal Rule #3 for fast food dining : Th-oust shall forever leave ample space betwixt thy own vehicle and thy front vehicle in the drive-thru lane so has to make thy get-a-way if thine service is ridiculously slow. 2 ) I never have understood the concept of being outside in the winter weather wearing a coat and short pants. Are they saying: I’m a little chilly upstairs but I’m just fine and toasty down in the basement ? 3 ) I have seen every Elvis movie at least 10 times, so I know all the places where he sings. If you wanna have some fun , the next time you watch a Big E flick and he sings a song in a group setting, watch all the “fill in” people in the background. There facial expressions, the looks they give Elvis, the clapping and lip-syncing the background vocals is so out of time It’s hilarious. 4 ) I saw the funniest thing the other day. Setting in my truck in a park on the phone (it’s illegal to drive and talk now, and I’m not a “bluetooth” kinda guy”). A guy pulls up in a late 70s Toyota pickup. What paint is left is dirty white, the bed is setting crooked and rust has eaten away the whole bedside, the door pops when opened, there is no rear bumper, cracked windshield and plastic where the passenger window use to be. After taking his dog out of the bed and putting a leash on him for a walk, he walks around and locks the door. REALLY ! Is there international car theft cartels out there just looking for crappy 77 Toyota pickups. Here is a little casual tip from an unbiased observer..... the Saran wrap on the passenger window is not much of a theft deterrent to the hard core car thief 5 ) How many times have you packed a 12 pack of frosty brewskis for a day at the ol ballpark or races and you look down and say “Dang, I wish I could pack a couple more”. A tear rolls down your cheek has look down at your cooler and realize you could have packed 2 more of those luscious little icy barley babes if there wasnt all that wasted space between all those round cans. Well friends, wish me luck, cause ol Shane is pitching an idea to Budweiser. And if it “hits”, I’m rich and you’ll get to pack your 2 extra cans of suds.. My idea is for Budweiser to start making special square cans that fit close together in coolers to eliminate the wasted space between round cans. ......... They will be called “Bud Tights”. 6 ) It irritates me to no end to go to a concert by one of my favorite artists or groups and they perform their biggest hits totally differently from their recording. I didn’t drive 2 hours and pay $74.50 for you to “experiment” with different arrangements. 7 ) Big Mistake-O-The-Day. My wife makes the best cinnamon rolls. So I come home from work and there is a dozen or so in a pan on top of the oven laying in all that delicious pecan-cinnamon-sugar ooey gooey good-ness. I slip in and steal a good chunk of one of them to eat. It kinda gets stuck in my mouth and I politely tell her they’re just a tad bit doughy, dear. She says “Well, you big goof, I haven’t baked them yet”. 8 ) Why do people point at their wrist when they come up to you to ask for the time? I don’t point at my butt when I ask someone where the restroom is..
