Trying to Be an Adult

Zoltan Kaszas, the stand-up comedian not the Olympic Gold Medal
winning Shot Put star from Scotland, with a splendid look at growing
old, and throwing rocks at the neighbor’s kids while screaming at them
to get the @#$% off your lawn!
From what I understand that is how most grown-ups deal with life.
I will never grow up so I can’t say for sure…

Mr. Wizard

Stevens and Grdnic with a parody of the old Mr. Wizard
television show that was on for many years back in the day.
I first heard this gem many years ago, and one of my all time
favorite utterances is “We will if we’re not careful, Timmy!”.
Most folks have no idea what the Hell I’m talking about.
So what else is new…

Roman Numerals

The Frantics with a classic piece on life’s constant changes.
Growing up with Canadian relatives on that side of the
border, and me living on this side, I was always a bit
confused between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
A quick rule of thumb is to take the Canadian temperature
double it and add 30, if Environment Canada says that it’s
20 degrees out, simply multiply 20 X 2 and add 30 to that.
A nice warm Spring day at 70 degrees Fahrenheit!
Their way is much funnier…
