Random Thoughts from a Random World

Back by popular demand (I may be exaggerating slightly to highly), I present to you for your reading pleasure another installment of Random Thoughts. As always, these are random thoughts from my mind and they are in no particular order...

1. Yesterday I saw a long haired girl walking by my work. She was wearing a large red headband (not one of those ear warmer headbands, but a "fat guy playing basketball" headband) and what can be best described as a huge black cape. It made me think that I either really don't understand women's fashion or mental illness. Either way, it was a bit disturbing. It also sort of made me want a cape.

2. I heard a story about a woman that decided to walk into a bank wearing a garbage bag (one would assume it was over her head). It didn't state whether there were eye holes cut out, but again you would assume so. So this super intelligent woman walks up to the teller and shows her a knife. At this point a bystander in the bank sees what is happening and happens to have a taser gun in her purse. She pulls it out and proceeds to chase the garbage-bagged member of MENSA around the bank trying to taser her. The woman flees the bank out to where her accomplice and getaway wheelchair are waiting. Yes, that is correct, a getaway wheelchair. It is not clear whether or not she still is wearing the garbage bag at this point, but it would not surprise me if she was. Needless to say that they did not make it far. That just goes to show you that what might seem like a perfect plan is not always so. It also makes it funnier if you think of the garbage bag being a transparent one.

3. Apparently a guy that trained dolphins back in the 70s has written a book about his time with the dolphins. You're likely questioning why I mention this in my random thoughts...part of the story revolves around how he began to develop emotions for the dolphin. The dolphin eventually seduced him after he resisted its advances as long as he possibly could. This eventually led to a physical relationship. Yes, you read that correctly. He just couldn't resist the dolphin after a while and had the best relationship of his life. I can't make this stuff up. He then thought it was a great idea to write a book detailing this. Dolphins are smart, but who knew they were such master seducers? Keep this in mind should you ever go swimming with them.

4. If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you can feed him for life. If you beat a man with a fish, that is funny. People should be wary of fish beatings more than they are.

This concludes our broadcast day. I will leave you with these words of wisdom. Sometimes "good from far" is "far from good". Stay thirsty my friends.
