My brain is in a strange place today

[thewayne]

Not feeling good, and my brain is having a field day.

I'm reading my ebook sales newsletters and came across the following description: "...A police officer, a sharpshooter, and a Marine band together to survive in this high-octane series starter..."

So you've got the cop and the sharpshooter driving down the road in a beat-up Trans Am, followed by a bus of Marine musicians performing Sousa....

:-)

This is honestly how my brain initially interpreted that blurb. I really need to re-re-re-watch Police Squad and the Naked Gun movies.

Sitcom as copaganda...

......I'd read your version of the book before the intended-meaning one. :D

[thewayne]

ROFL!  So would I!

Your brain and mine, both on pretty much the same track. Warm weather, wind and LOTS of whatever I'm allergic to. It has pretty much shut me down. MORE water!!

[thewayne]

I so wish for more water!  We're at #4 of 5 on the fire danger scale, our winter was so pitiful snow-wise that we're in for a terrifying fire season.

I have much sympathy, things got pretty bad here by 2021. Of course there was no grass that year either, but that doesn't help when everything is tinder dry like you are. At least this year we did have a good rain year; it just stopped at the end of March leaving head high grass; but lots of moisture in the trees and shrubs. I'm trying to be really serious about clearing way, way back around the house, making sure there really is 5 feet of bare dirt around the house (not there yet, but getting there).

I hope you are feeling better real quick. :)


"Interesting" book.

That is a strange sentence, all those together, LOL!!

I read it like you did, but without that amusing visualization!

Ah yes, some good comedy movies would be good to watch.

Reminds me of some dialogue I had in Iceland (near the bottom) https://mile42.net/2021/09/business-in-egilsstadir/

Funny stuff!  As it happens, I've been shooting Canon since about 1990.  All of my camera gear needed service, dumped it all and bought an Eos body and lens and have been shooting it ever since.

This sounds like a beginning of a stereotyped joke. Did they go to a bar at some point? :)

[thewayne]

Oh, I think a bar would have been required.

I think going through the oeuvre of Police Squad! Would be an excellent idea. The blurb there is pretty word salad.
