No respect

Ain’t it th’ truth? What the teachers don’t tell you is, people might think you’re intelligent, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to like it. I know some of you are itching to opine that Gene should be taking out the trash. I agree, but then the gag wouldn’t work, would it?

Many of the denizens of my back yard will be happy to learn the Cardinals are in the Super Bowl. Maybe they’ll be so happy they’ll stop trying to commit suicide by flying into the window panes. Every now and then, one will succeed, but as often as not they will stun themselves. I was assisting one such groggy fellow recently and was bitten for my trouble. Those beaks are strong!
