Brevity by Dan Thompson for December 30, 2012

I’ve often wondered what was done with all that daylight that was saved up.

Beats the daylights outta me.

Hey, If we reversed the process, would it be Daylight Spending Time? Daylight Losing Time?

I’m sixty today, pardon me if I hoard as much time as I can……

Susan, my dear Ms. Sunshine…You actually turned, what I saw as a scarred heart into a smiling tomato. Geeze, and I already think of you when I encounter tomatoes….Custom cards? They’re wonderful…

Some morning I’m going to look up at the rising sun and it will be a tomato, smiling…..Can I paint you red sometime?

Anyway, Bless you m’lady….Happy New Year…

Alexikacos, that’s pretty good…

Hey Varnes …. Happy birthday!

Glad you liked it… and sure. I think…. um… what?

Happy New Year to you too!

Dogsniff…. me say day me say day me say day-ay-ay-o…

Meanwhile, I guess that explains why the days get shorter and shorter towards the end of the year…

I think his closet started to get full about a week ago….he hasn’t been taking quite as much of the daylight to squirrel away.

But I could sure use a case or two, please….

He should put it where the sun don’t shine.

Susan, I’ve got it! A spa that specializes in the healing properties of tomato juice…Cool baths, warm baths, (my favorite!)..Tomato juice sprays and showers,( warm or cold) Tomato juice in the sauna instead of pouring water on the rocks…For a bit more money it can all be done with heritage tomatoes…I’m a freakin’ jeanyus…..

Affcionado, thanks…I intend to keep having them, as many as possible….

Saving time. Seems pretty standard to me.

Me too… I hope they have a better season this coming year. Drew, Victorino, Napoli, and Hanrahan should help.

Is this an intervention?
