I want you to know something about my grampy. Even if he's sitting in a wheelchair and barely able to stand, he still says clever things. I don't know where he gets them. I'm not even related to him by blood, but I probably inherited his sarcasm. The other night, someone gave him a chocolate chip macadamia cookie and he said, "Thank you for this cookie. This cookie changed my life around". When everyone laughed, he maintained his deadpan expression. I don't know exactly what was funny about that, but the fondness I felt as I witnessed it almost made me drop the mug I was holding; a feeling on the border between fondness and idolization.

He also told me he found out about Lil Wayne while reading the paper. "They want to give him some award..." he said to me, "I looked at that face and I saw something evil in it. So I rebuked Lil Wayne. I said, 'ugly face, go away!'"
My Grampy is not racist (I don't think), but what he said had me running toward the powder room to pee. The man's a genius with his one-liners, like Tracy Morgan on 30 Rock. Have a nice day, my friends, and try to floss tonight.

You'd think so right? But no, that music was heard even by completely sober ears, not under the influence of anything. Imagine if I had been though....that would have been craAazy.
Lonven - a cult in holland of over-zealous gardeners who steal cows to use their manure for fertilizer. "Beware the Lonven."
