Giggle Time

It's time for a little giggle!


Ready? Here is pun #10.


"A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two-tired".





Check out the image in the middle between the two pumpkins. The flag at half staff is a bank. The Flag  at full stall is a US Post Office. 

The point  to be made here is this: What ever happened to the President being the only one that could order flags to fly at half staff.  I grew up under that rule.  When three flags fly---the President would order the federal flag to fly at half mask. But the state and company would also be lowered  to half staff. If a company flag is lowered to half mast, then the other two remain at full staff. But, under no circumstances should either the state or a company flag fly higher than the US Flag.

I took the time to ask the manager at the Bank of America why their flag was at half staff and the US Post Office was at full staff. In short, the Bank flag (also a US FLag)  should be at half staff along with the US Flag.He said that the property manager determined when the flag was lowered. Hince the heck with the President of the US. it seems. Point made. 

Every one talks about rules. And it seems that people do what they want. And of course you  can't count on social media to know what it was like in the early 1950 when every one respected the US Flag. It also seems to me (1960's was warning about the future generations not getting oral history passed alone from their parents) never did get passed alone. 

I once ask someone, who died and pointed to a similar situation like this and no one knew. Another point made. Everyone talkes about their freedom and the like but do they really know what freedom is?

Pun # 5 in the series.

 #5   "A hangover is the wrath of grapes". 


This afternoon, I got a chance to see first hand, the beginnings of the new Silver Line on the old Cottonbelt Railroad route. It is immediately north of the Addison Transit Center. While there, I walked over to Addison Circle  got some copies made from a Big Ten Boiler Maker. I had on my Ohio State Championship t-shirt and my Michigan baseball hat. The owner of the place where I got the copies made, picked up on that right away. In additional, his wife is also a photographer and he sells her prints in his business. They were quite good. After leaving there, I walked across the street and had lunch on the patio of EL Rincon Mexican Kitchen and Tequila Bar.  The food was excellent and the service was exceptional. 

After lunch, I made my way around the traffic circle to the park where the greens were sunny and bright and green. The dancing fountains were fun to watch for a bit before  revisiting the several various fountains that poured a stream of water into a canal that flows under several cross ways in the coolness of the trees and benches. I had just gotten back to the transit center when I say my bus rounding the corner. It was a 38-minute ride back to the house. Having had a late afternoon  lunch, dinner was delayed until the 8 o'clock hour. Then, it was only a light snack at that. 

Pictures came out very well. I'm  still  in edit mode, then getting them published. Once published, I'll release them on the blog. 




It All Started in the wee hours of May 28th when 80 MPH winds was tossing everything against the side of my house.

 Those winds were substained for well over 40 minutes. The results were trees everywhere down or large branches broken off. One of my bus ro...
