Randomly reprinted post (XII)

"Wonder of wonders
Irony of ironies
Usually I only take Bus 416 from school
But today, in a prelude to more irony,
I took it back from the library too!

When Glavine leaves the Mets to return to the Braves,
That is an irony;
When Arabs say Annapolis shafted them,
That is an irony too.

But of all the ironies large and small
The most ironic of them all
Is the woman passenger on the 416
Who asked if we had reached her stop yet long after we'd passed it and I don't care if this line doesn't rhyme and is too long ha ha 'cause I'm random


TODAY'S BOOK: 'The Adventures of Holly Hobbie', by Richard Dubelman ((c) 1980)"

What Nightmares Are Made Of
Michael Warner, 58, consumed so much alcohol over the years that he couldn’t drink any more due to acid reflux and stomach ulcers. “He was told that he could not drink alcohol or that he would die,” said a Lake Jackson, Texas, police spokesman. In order for him to still consume it, police say, his wife Tammy Jean Warner, 42, gave him a wine enema. She went overboard, they say, when she anally administered two bottles of fortified sherry, pushing his blood alcohol level to .47 percent, killing him. She has been charged with criminally negligent homicide, and with destroying Michael’s will for his $317,000 estate, which she has been fighting his daughter for since his death. She has already received $248,276 in life insurance. (Clute Facts) ...“I’ll drink to that,” Tammy said. “Bottoms up!”
