Motoring

I enjoyed reading gerbean's post with my morning(?) coffee. It inspired me to try something similar, sort of a slice of what's bouncing around in my head. Might post that later today. But it also reminded me of one of Jack Handley's "Deep Thoughts" on SNL:

Once when I was in Hawaii, on the island of Kauai, I met a mysterious old stranger. He said he was about to die and wanted to tell someone about the treasure. I said, "Okay, as long as it's not a long story. Some of us have a plane to catch, you know." He started telling his story, about the treasure and his life and all, and I thought: "This story isn't too long." But then, he kept going, and I started thinking, "Uh-oh, this story is getting long." But then the story was over, and I said to myself: "You know, that story wasn't too long after all." I forget what the story was about, but there was a good movie on the plane. It was a little long, though.

  1. ya..sometimes I think my brain gets in that mode as the things I should be noticing are just ignored in the flurry of other thoughts.
