Quote of the Week From My Life.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life.

 

So we were at the Maryland Renaissance Festival earlier today, watching The Dueling Fools do their act. At the end, one of them has a sword sticking out of him. Also bear in mind that it's just the two of them (two men) on stage.

 

 

George: So how does this end?

Rocco: Well, that depends on whether it is a comedy or a tragedy.

George: If it's a tragedy?

Rocco: Somebody dies.

George: Oh! I don't like that. What if it's a comedy?

Rocco: Then somebody has to get married!

Me (calling out from the audience): That *is* legal in Maryland, you know!

:: the audience roars as the two of them exchange an awkward glance::

George: (hastily) If those are my choices... I'd rather be dead!

Bit of background: An acquaintance of mine died about a year ago. A friend inherited his gaming stuff, among which was a box of miniatures. Since I'm the only guy she knows that paints minis, she brought the box over to me.

 

Her: I have no idea what all's in here; I haven't even opened the box.

Me: So if there's a withered monkey's paw there...?

Her: I hesitate to think about what you'd wish for.

Me: Oh, I know exactly what I'd wish for. And the monkey's paw would think to itself, "Dude, that is MESSED UP! How the hell can I screw with a wish like that???" :eg:

(Wife is adding gin to her glass of orange juice last night.)

 

Son: "Oh, so you're being naughty, Mom."

 

Me: "No, she is not being naughty by putting gin in her OJ. She's being good. It keeps her out of my Irish whiskey."

There is more to life than money -- have you had your daily squee dose today?

 

I'm deeply in the red when it comes to my squee quotient, alas.

 

Having fallen back into crazy reclusive artist mode doesn't help my socializing much, although it does up the mystique factor when I make a rare personal appearance :P

Depending on the Faire, they could be excellent squee aggregators. :) Unfortunately, I've found there seems to be a lot of politicking going on, too. :-/
