Today is the second week for a new feature here called Meandering Monday, where I…uh…meander on a wide range of topics, from sex to drugs and rock and roll. Okay, not really, but I thought if I could hook you in, why not? If that turns you off, then let’s say I’m going to meander about gardens, classical music and cooking. It’ll be like NPR or PBS, but without the letters and the pledge drives.

First, up Sudden Wallet Awareness Syndrome runs in the family:
On Saturday, my father “lost” his wallet while we were at a picnic. I had to stifle a laugh as I thought, “Is this what I look…and sound like?”
My father: “I know it was right here…I don’t understand because I had it right here…”
About an hour later, he found it:
Funny thing is just before we left my parents, I “lost” my cell phone, but it “magically appeared” in my coat pocket where I left. I “lose” my glasses all the time too. Oh, there they are: ON MY FACE!

Also while over at my parents, my wife…well…needed a feminine product, because she didn’t have one with her. Here is what she found from the days my sister was in college:
For some reason, it struck me as funny and made me wonder what other products could be advertised in a similar manner:
Choosing the right college is a smart decision…Choosing Scott’s Rapid-Dissolving Toilet Tissue is another smart decision!
Or for older people that might be going into nursing homes:
Choosing the right nursing home is a smart decision…Choosing Depends is another smart decision!
Basically, the slogan could go with any product for bodily functions of which you could think. You get the idea.

My sister yesterday put up a post about how I inform her via phone every time I put up a post here or at one of my other 20 blogs (okay four other, but still…). I’m really not that bad.
I’m much worse. I not only call, but also e-mail, Twitter (which goes on my Facebook status too) her and others when I put up a post. I haven’t hired a skywriter or gone to a radio ad like she has suggested, but I might think about posting a YouTube video. Everybody else these days is on YouTube, why not me saying “Hey, check out the blog post I just put up!”?
I’m a blore like Lobo, I admit it.

This Week’s Funny Find is papercages from the Outer Boondocks of California. I’ll be featuring her feed on my sidebar at right all week. Check her out. She’s someone I’ve seen a few times, but to whom I’m only beginning to be introduced. So far, I’ve highlighted Doug @ Taunt Vortex, Nick @ Buffalo This, Mike @ PlainOleMike and Kevin Lieber (a.k.a. Julius Bloop).
