Dave, if you had been born in April, Rita would have a perfect nickname for you......

Thanks for the laugh. NPR Weekend Edition Sunday had a good one today. Announced that today's Sunday Puzzle segment was its last one after 30+ years with Will Shortz, the NY Times crossword puzzle editor. Fooled me.

I’m not the greatest at originality but when my friend Don Powell over at Mink Trapping pulled it on all the members of his site, I knew what I had to do. My brother in Fort Collins was born on April 3 and my dad reminded him that a couple days earlier might have been appropriate. He went on to get his PhD so maybe April 3 was ok after all. He was my mom’’s favorite except when there was work to be done and then he would hide and read a book

License

I checked into the license and found out the Ponderosa steakhouse chain bought them all up. They outbid the Golden Corral. Wonder what they are going to do with them all.?

When they get those next ones out I’m hoping to get a pet Tasmanian devil. I’ve heard they are quite cuddly
