Small things 9 Oct

  • What if a werewolf goes to the moon? Do they werewolf full-time or only when they walk to a specific side or at a certain time of month? Asking for a friend.
  • I got to talking about NHL hockey. Plans are to start a fresh season by December 2020. If it wasn't for the border restrictions between Canada and the US, I said let them start next week. The winner of the playoffs and the participants who lasted the longest should suffer a handicap of a short break. It could give the other teams a fighting chance. Also, that's why they pay you all the big bucks.
  • Having another presidential debate would make as much sense as a sequel to the movie Cats.
  • Hey kids! When I was young, we had these things called 'radios'. Some were kind of big, like bigger than a breadbox big. What's a breadbox? Oh boy........

  • So, some radios were tiny because they finally made them out of transistors instead of tubes. Tubes. No, not like the internet..... 
  • Yeah, we listened to music on the radio. No, you listened to whatever the DJ played. No, they picked the music. No, it did not suck.......
  • Hey kids! When I was young we bought music on records. Oh you know about those eh? Since you couldn't put a record player in a car, we also had 8-track tapes. Yeah, you put a cartridge into an in-dash 8-track player. You prayed the tape didn't break and parts wore out fast. Yeah, it sucked.
  • Oh! But then came cassette tapes. They were much more reliable. You could even fast-forward the songs. You know - fast-forward. Skip a bit faster through the song to the next song. No, you couldn't instantly go to any song. No, it did not suck! [sigh]
  • Hey grandpa! There's this thing called Spotify. It's like every song ever made, almost, all in an app on the internet. You play whatever you want right now. If you don't wanna hear that song, you skip to a different one. No tapes, no DJ, no radio. [shut up kid]
