OK.
Most of you know me well enough to know that I wear shorts year round, but for
those of you who don't, I wear shorts year round. Usually in any type of
weather no matter what. I wore pants twice last year. Once for my job interview
for the RA position (and they weren't even mine, I had to borrow them), and one
other time when I went out and played tackle football in the snow (and people
still called me a wus). Also, I'm a pretty sharp witted guy, and usually good
with little one liners. Well, you'd think as often as I wear shorts in the cold
that I'd have some sort of stock answer or witty comeback kinda deal for every
time somebody says to me "Hey, isn't it a little cold for shorts?" or
"Aren't you cold?" or "Hey look, that asteroid is going to kill
us all, and hey, there's that freak who always wears shorts. HEY YOU! YEAH, YOU
IN THE PINK HAT! PUT SOME DAMN PANTS ON, IT'S FREEZING OUT HERE! AND STOP CRYING!...
Weirdo." But I don't. I have no comeback. And I feel so stupid for not
having a comeback. Because then I usually just say something like
"Yeah." and keep walking, thinking to myself how much of a dork I
must sound like now. So if anybody has any ideas for witty retorts, please let
me know. It's easy if I have my ear muffs on, because then I can just take a
shot right back at them about "MY LEGS? AREN'T YOUR EARS COLD? AND STOP
CRYING!... Weirdo." But without my ears muffs, I'm lost, and I could use
the guidance of you 110 or so of my best friends. Thanks.
OK. I find quotes in the strangest of places sometimes. Like this one I got
from that dumb RA conference I went to in DC. I only say it was dumb because
for the most part, it was pretty dumb. Anyway, during our lunch this guy who
was some chairman of athletic academics or something, gave what they called a
"keynote speech." I didn't see the relevance. Anyway, in his opening
remarks, he said that a key player on Duke's basketball team was called in to
see his coach, because it was discovered that he was getting 4 F's and a D
midway through the semester. His coach sat him down, and said to him...
Quote Of the Day 11/10
"Son, I think you're spending too much time on one subject."
-Duke's b-ball coach
Alright guys, it's now 4:30 and I have a screenplay to finish by 10 (I just
like saying "I have a screenplay to finish." It sounds cool).
Grating you like cheese,
Extendo.
Still Standing Right Here...
