Holy smokes! How did you get a picture of me 30 years from now?

Rodge, you wanted captions, right?
Wellll, you're gettin' a few:
• Harry found he could see over the wheel a lot better when he sat on his wife's lap.
• Irving hadn't been late in twenty years. Fifty dollars a week as a towel boy at Inga's Women's Gymnastics Spa wasn't much, but it was all he could afford.
• Harold sped off urgently looking for that new street market.
• Al was tired of tailgaters honking at 'im, so he put his turn signal on and slowed down.
• Wilmur thought to himself that, after a few drinks tonight, the car seemed a lot easier to drive. Then he remembered that his car was a stick shift.
• Gerald longed for the days when he could babysit his grandkids and go out for a couple drinks without them makin' all that racket in the trunk.
• Sometimes when Jerome came up to a busy crosswalk, he'd have flashbacks about pushing his Sherman tank through the hedgerows of Normandy.
• Sid always looked forward to getting home and chasing kids off his lawn.
• Leo sat there for a while staring at the long line of mailboxes. Then something just snapped.
• Jumping the half-open drawbridge had been a fantasy of Ichabod's for years; but, today, when no one was in the way, his wife wasn't with him, so he told himself there'd be another day.
• Orville hated Priuses, and there was one ahead of him waiting at the railroad crossing gate. The whistle was really close, now. -

Brevity is the soul of wit.

A joke can be as brief as ... not reading it.
• Wit is over-rated. (brevity)
• If brevity is wit's soul, then shaggy-dog is wit's expanded aura. (occult)
• Wit? We don't got no wit. We don't need no wit. We don't have to show you no stinkin' wit! (cinematic)
• Without wit, one can only be ... a critic. (theatric)
• Enlightenment comes from discovering wit's true brevity cleverly hidden within a long joke. (Zen)
(What? *shh* They were buyin' it.)

Besides, the guy who said that line in "Hamlet," Polonius, was an officious, garrulous, and impertinent busy-body and a "tedious old fool."
Oh, yeah, and he's killed by a rapier in the arras.
(Sorry, got carried away. As you can see, sometimes it takes me a longer to get bored with entertainin' myself than it does for others. I truly sympathize with 'em, though. It won't happen again on this post.) -

DougM, if this were fb I'd click the like button. If only for that final sentence.

Getting stabbed in the arras would make it hard to sit down.

Doug, I often apply that rule. I find that on long airline flights, it's best to be the guy who is a couple drinks ahead.
