Default reply to “What can I do in Columbia?” Feel free to copy and paste

Black masses are held in all city parks at midnight. It’s a liberal town so altar can be a naked woman or man. Do not visit any of the 107 snake handling churches unless you are VERY experienced. Their headquarters is the Columbia Museum of Art which sold all the paintings years ago and is now devoted to snakes and speaking in tongues. Do not try the pimiento cheese. People will tell you it’s a local delicacy; this is a prank, like that “chili” in Cincinnati. Do not fall for it. The Saturday farmers’ market on Main Street is nice but do NOT drink anything served from the coffin-shaped lunch truck.

The first two pillars of the trinity of my new religion are definitely chocolate and rock n roll, but i’m open to suggestions regarding the third. Leaning toward more chocolate, however.

What should happen when you hit the cruise button on the steering wheel?

I’m thinking Ray-Bans magically appear, hair returns dark and full, car immediately transforms into ‘57 ‘Vette, blaring Runaround Sue from the speakers. Your thoughts?

Easily the best part of the recent colonoscopy was the stop sign on the wall, reading, “Don’t fall; call your nurse.” I asked her, “Are you going to coach me? Teach me how to roll?” Fortunately, she ran with it.

Bill Withers should have won the Nobel Prize because he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew he knew HE KNEW.

Do people know the backstory of the name Georgina Spelvin?

TL/DR It just means “This isn’t my name.”
Listening to old time radio, there was a point in the Sherlock Holmes run where Watson was played by George Spelvin. I thought, “Porn lady’s dad? Hella coincidence?” Turns out it’s theater lingo, usually for someone who’s already in the cast playing another part. In this case it was American actor Wendell Holmes and Mutual apparently decided they couldn’t have somebody named Holmes playing Watson. So he got anonymized. 20-30 years later…

Now that When I’m 64 is no longer science fiction for me as of next Tuesday

We weren’t too thrilled with the new Al Amir at Boozer

The special sauce on the pizza was not special in a good way, rendering what should have been a wonderful Mediterranean pizza almost inedible. But what do you expect out of a place selling chicken shakes?

McWhirter and Whoever now have a new billboard with a five-star review from Rhea to go with the earlier one from Rebecca. So they are absolutely running the table on fictitious women whose names start with R.

So today I was saved from scammers by my own financial incompetence. Get this breathless call from “Corporal Lisa Fields” from the Richland County Sheriff’s Department. Know that just reading this back I feel like an idiot, but they were pretty shrewd scammers with police radio sound effects and very smooth patter.

To give you the information you need, the story was that i had been sent notification that I had been called for federal jury duty, somebody signed the notice and sent it back and now there was a bench warrant out and I was subject to arrest. I can tell the entire epic story including the wonderfully specific $4549 I was supposed to pay the bondsman in crypto (I am not making this up) but you know enough now to hang up if you get such a call.
