Married conversations: Case by case, we understand each other better

(As I load the items in the iGo car with items to put in storage...)
Frage: "Is that a guitar case?" (with the previous knowledge that we had ditched our respective guitars at various move times....)
UIM: "It's a rifle case with a Nerf sword in it."
(Long pause while UIM puts the rest of the boxes in the iGo car.)
UIM: "I understand the loop playing in your head: 'Why do I even ask him?', 'Why do I even ask him?', 'Why do I even ask him?' ..."

The most useless dice I own

I will always be too lazy to make this my epitaph...

 He has gone where
short-sighted management
and over-confident developers
may lacerate his heart no more.
He served maintainable systems.
Traveler, imitate him if you dare.

Nostalgia: I audio-taped this very performance from Bill Boggs' Comedy Tonight when it aired in the early morning hours on channel 5 (WNEW). [We didn't have a VCR yet.]
