Overheard and Shout Outs

OVERHEARD

Are there tid-bits of conversations you’ve heard while standing in line at the grocery store, serving a table, or walking down the sidewalk that make you smile, cringe or laugh out loud?

“Look. there’s the Mystery Machine.”

“The beach fell off.”

“I have Al Green coming out of my purse.”

“He was doing all the quarterbacky things.”

“I kept smelling something fruity…I thought it was my brother.”

“I used to drink grapefruit vodka when I was in bowling leagues.”

“I used to drink grapefruit vodka …and then I got sores on my tongue.”

“#43 of the Babysitters Club was also my favorite because I was obsessed with diabetes. And also migraines.”

“They’re dancing for cheese curds.”

“I feel so much safer with a colander and a tennis racket.”

“I want to touch the moon one time… I want to drink coffee one time.”

SHOUT OUTS

Is there someone or something that deserves a pat on the back or a slap on the wrist?

“Shout out to the huge turnout of people at the Gaddes benefit – I was proud to be in a community full of such supportive people.”

“Cheers to autumn – the BEST time of year!”

“I love the Green Bay Packers, even when they lose. They are still better behaved on the ball field than all those NFL thugs out there!”
