How’s your Summer going?

My what now?!?

My summer is going way to hot!

I need to winterize my summer!

Oh, just moving along, before you know it, it will be Fall!!!

I was a paperboy back in the 70s and dreaded that part of going on vacation.

I seriously doubt that they let kids do paper routes anymore these days. The past several years, I’ve only seen adults in cars. Too few people buy them now, and the routes are too spread out for kids on foot or on bike. Plus, it has always been somewhat dangerous. My brother was nearly abducted one morning on his route (this was in ‘72, I think).

Since when? This kid has never left his bed before 8am without dynamite.

Paper routes are a thing of the past!

Carppy…. Can’t breathe

Wrong question.

OK, revise the question, who’s gonna do you paper route?

Those kind of responses would get me in trouble when I was that age.

seriously, confiscate that mobile device

I just found out my brother in law may lose his job as custodian of a public school. As a federal employee he was told to get the shot or hit the road. He is planning on moving to Texas. He feels as if his liberties are being thwarted. I hope he does eventually get the vaccine shot and gets to keep his job.
