   A friend of mine used to be an auxiliary cop. One night he was called to a hit-skip accident where a car had hit a utility pole guy wire. When the car drove off the front license plate got caught on the wire. My friend went to the driver’s house, where the driver denied having been driving that night — until my friend showed him his license plate.

   A year and a half ago I went to meet some dogs at a rescue organization. One of them must have been part pogo stick. He kept jumping straight up, as high as my head (and he wasn’t a big dog). I decided against that one. Though it would have cool to name him Pogo.

   Years ago I went to brunch at Denny’s with a bunch of friends. I ordered one of their breakfast skillets “with a side of Lipitor”. Even the server thought that was funny. When I got home I looked up the nutritional info on their website. That one meal had a full day’s allowance of fat.

   Seeing a hawk shred a kite would have been worth the loss of the kite. It would have been even better if the kite had been shredded by a kite (a bird of prey).

    A friend and I, both college-educated engineers, saw a UFO one evening over Lake Erie. It was doing all kinds of impossible maneuvers. I got suspicious when we disagreed on what it was doing, so I took a bearing with my phone and found it wasn’t moving at all — it was Venus, like most UFOs. The cloudless sky had no reference points for judging motion. We had a good laugh about it, but I realized how easily some less-astute observer could have been sure it was a UFO.
