New Things I Just Learned

Tchockies...that's how you spell those funky little things you see in other peoples houses, and wish you owned...like old type trays from defunct newspapers...or voodoo dolls.
"Gimme the Beach Boys"........no, no, no, no. It's "Gimme the beat, boys." I don't care. I'll keep asking for the Beach Boys.
Giraffes use their tongues for a strange sexual identification....nah, I don't want to go there. Look it up.

This has been the month of destruction. My car aerial got twisted off. The lid over the gas cap fell off. My washing machine started smoking and had to be given Christian burial.The little knob that turns on the three-speed living room lamp stripped its threads and can't be replaced. But I'm walking around in one piece, so the rest is manini (Hawaiian for small...really small.)
