I have been told by my friends, family and co-workers over the years that I have sometimes said things a certain way that is at once insightful and goofy all at the same time. The English language should have a word for that, but I don’t think it does. Ah, well, here are some, added as necessary.
- Before speeding the race car down the track, you may want to check with the pit-crew. The mechanic may not have tightened down all the lug nuts.
- Your opinion is always welcome but, regardless of whether or not you agreed with me, I still would have been right
- Kids may have more energy, but geezers have more patience and tenacity.
- You can make any decision you want, as long as you can pay for it.
- This is like the old joke about the five blind men feeling up an elephant. Someone has to see the elephant to lead.
- It is what it is.
- Trying to figure out what he wants is like nailing a pudding pie to the wall!
- Let’s not go poking alligators with sticks
