M'ello? Larry! Did you lock up the house last night? People are running out of your house with your stuff! Hey... It's the sound of Niagara Falls don't you hear nature calling? Got up during the night that... Your kids are eating you out of house and home... Plus there's college and your retirement. Better go chase that paycheck! Unless you're really too tired to get up- in which case you need to see a doctor. Who's on the phone? A recording I made for my new alarm app. How's the credit card?

People who need an alarm to get up are working on the wrong work shift.

I use 3 alarms. all I know – is last week, when one started beeping & I reached for the snooze button. I also thought I had cleared the memory and re-set the alarm. Found out much later (after work) I set it for 12 hours later. Same week, dozed off in front of the TV – thought I had programmed something on my cell phone. Two days later – found I had programmed the alarm clock function, but hadn’t activated it. I need more sleep!

Now about yesterday’s strip that turned into nasty comments about you know the risks, you get paid the big multiple million $ contracts, stuff it about the concussions. Concussions kill. They kill the athlete being hit. And depending upon how much damage – they kill the family of that athlete, by his own hand. Concussions cause brain damage. Brain damage can cause personality disorders which may or can lead to suicide and/or murder. Learn and know. Why do you think everyone is talking about protecting the younger athletes from concussions? It certainly isn’t because we want to coddle them!Now about those salaries. I agree, some sports salaries seem to be a little…. excessive. But if able to get the pay – ? But some athletes, playing the same sports, don’t get the same amount of money. NFL vs CFL.
