Sometimes your complete lack of sense or grasp of reality is quite amusing. Like your hero Trump normal everyday things others find mundane intrigue you as if you'd never heard of them before.

Leave the golf ball stealing perverted old man to
his own demise...
 
Whoever it was that cautioned me against regular use of naproxen was on the money, but different money. I laid off for a while and a certain distressing digestive symptom went away, but then came back when I restarted the drug. I'm off it for now, using a more natural painkiller when needed.
 
I have been getting those calls --

It's nice to know what they mean --“you have a package from Amazon at the Chinese Embassy, press 1 for more details”

I recall the time when I worked in a factory when they had a paging system installed. Anyone could punch in a short code number on their phone and then make a PA message to the whole place. The system was upgraded when it became apparent that it was too easy to misdial the code by accident and end up serenading the whole factory with a series of dial tones, followed by mumbled curses and hangup noises. Some pranksters (software engineers, I suspect) learned to patch in whole DTMF songs like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

We hear " Twinkle Twinkle Little Star "

You hear " Twinkle Twinkle Little Thief "

Twinkle, twinkle, little thief,
How I wonder what lets you sleep!
Up before dawn he spies them with his eye,
Like a crook he grabs them on the fly.

When the owners see they are gone,
When they know something is wrong
Then you show your little face,
Twinkle, twinkle, throughout the place.

Then the crook moves to the park
Knowing he can steal after dark
He can see the precious items as he walks slow,
If the lighting will twinkle with a glow.

In the dark blue night he creeps,
And often through pleated curtains he peeps,
For you should never shut your eye
When that thief wanders under the darkened sky.

As you play upon that precious course
Watch out for the thief who steals without remorse
Though we know not who you are,
Twinkle, twinkle little thief steals under the darkened star.

The Amazon ad algorithm is working in an intriguing way lately -- the three book titles it has been pitching to me all day are From Russia With Love, Off Topic, and Hard Time (Joe Arpaio's book).
 
Hoist on their own petard? -- Monsanto has been making a lot of enemies the last few years for suing farmers that they claim are violating their patent on Roundup-ready seeds by replanting the seeds instead of just selling them as crops and agricultural service companies for assisting the farmers in preparing the seeds for planting. The Monsanto patent is for plants that allow the farmer to spray Roundup weedkiller directly on the growing plants since they have a GMO-implanted ability to survive the treatment.

What I posted today on Facebook --

Is kendo the name of the Japanese martial art of stick-fighting? I might need to sign up for a course.

Today a young street entrepreneur grabbed cash out of my hand, and when I grabbed the pack off his bicycle handlebars in return, he whacked me in the side of the head hard enough to knock my hat off. I responded with my cane to the side of his head. I blocked his next attempt with my left arm (I have a little bruise to show for it) and caned him in the head again. I was also able to poke a few items away from him with the cane - I think it was a set of headphones and a phone charger cable - I didn't look, but just threw it over the parking lot fence.

Then he took off running down the street. No point to chasing him, but I did shout - "When you get busted tell your cellmates you ran away from an old man with a cane!"
