Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember when we were children, and fond of singing that song, "Onward Christian Soldiers." Some people often protest against that song, but I think that it says something very important for Christians. But of course if you are not really a Christian then you would not be able to quite understand what that means. But I digress.  

Which Reminds Me

Yes, i do not know when it would ever be safe for me to speculate out loud about my future plans to do something, whatever, go here or there, do this or that, for fear of launching a stampede of persons who are opposed to whatever I want to do. Did I say that I wanted to write a book? Well, it turns out that I do not need that much pain. I really do not have to do that, I can always change my mind and not write a book, or if I ever did write a book, I did not specify what sort of book it would be, anyway, your opinion would not be required for me to do that, if I should change my mind, although I am not sure that I would need to do that anyway. The time is long since past for having to discuss any future plans with you.    

Which Reminds Me

Yes, it is a good thing that I had State Farm insurance, so that whatever happens, the insurance would cover that without any need for me to revisit the technicalities yet again. I cannot quite remember how that happened, when I drive past where that happened I cannot quite think how that could have happened, everything is blurry in my mind, but anyway, I had more than the legally required insurance to pay for that.

Yes, my car rear-ended his car, so obviously I must rely on the mercies of the insurance company to pay for the damages. We pulled over and exchanged inusrance information. He seemed fine to me, but I am not medically trained so how would I know. The off-duty paramedic who stopped to help then worked him over and finally the ambulance arrived and carried him away on a stretcher

 Yet in the legal papers I read that months later he was vacationing in Ireland. I have never been to Irelan so obviously the car accident did not happen there, so I am at a loss to explain anything about these litigious novelists. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, truly, I would probably need to evacuate the planet entirely to rid myself of those evil warlocks Jeff and Rhonda, but no rush. In the meanwhile, if you choose to send me a free passport, no problem. I could always add another thing to my collections. Fine. No problem. Vanuatu or Nauru, whatever. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember thinking that it seemed incredible that you would be expecting me to somehow go out of my way to defend every single word that President Nixon ever spoke and/or uttered in his public and/or private sessions. But I was not intending to make some sort of speech on that point, I read the magazines too, but if you really must insist perhaps we can also talk about that other joke. And then there was the question of who said, "Go thou and do likewise," but that was part of a different joke of another sort. But I will let you learn to read the Bible for yourself. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, there is no way that I am ever going to sign any deal with that crazy person who was crowing about how she is going to teach us how to speak Ebonics and live like welfare moms. Who even remembers now who that was, anyway? Forget you. I will be just fine without your crazy deals. The oil executives will tell you when and what's what. Let them figure it out.
