Professional wrestling is the only sport that does not take a timeout when the referee gets knocked unconscious.
The “hook and ladder” play in football is actually called the “hook and lateral” play.
At what age do drivers forget they’re not supposed to drive ten miles per hour under the speed limit in the left lane?
I recently stopped biting my nails for the first time in nearly fifty years. I haven’t chewed a nail in eight weeks.

My ongoing recovery from knee replacement surgery has helped me understand how easily one could become addicted to prescription painkillers.

“Sale” and “sell” are two different words with two different meanings.
Every time I read how uneducated and backward-thinking Americans are, I think of the six flags planted on the moon.
Have a great day, and feel free to comment!
1. Who is going to call timeout? They are unconscious.
12. When are you going to have a sell at your coffee shop? I would like to sale you a doughnut with your coffee. Drives me nuts!
Number 12 should be posted on a billboard.
I was surprised when number 11 was revealed to me one day in your cafe.
