Title: Whys
Post by: Dave on April 01, 2017, 08:50:24 AM
Why does my mind seem to operate better earlyish in the morning, before any food or drink, after a night invariably disturbed by "bright ideas", dreams (mostly lucid), hip and other pains, visits to the loo etc. such that if I get four hours total sleep I consider it a good night?

Maybe because like an engine in the winter it's warmed up by morning? And during the day you run it on empty.

Why do I let my Dad feed me unhealthy food?

Hmm, just realised, not only have I had no food or drink yet but neither have I taken my 6 morning cardiac medications . . .

Much the same story with me, I'm afraid, as regards bad nights.  As for why you function better, in the mornings, I've no idea.  I don't.

Perhaps because a fool and his money are soon married.

Which leads to a fool being divorced of his money . . .

Why do we have to drink a whole bottle of wine?
Why?
Why can't we just have one glass?

Dionysus, it's his fault!  :grrr:

I drank a bottle of wine just now, took me about 1/2 hour, with Natcho flavour Pringles & hot tomato salsa.

But it was only a 187ml bottle - my ration for the week :(

Note the volume of the bottle, Mags. Only a quarter of a full size job. And maybe it takes me 45 minutes some weeks . . .
Young guy at the lunch table at work once asked how long a bottle of wine should last. Our boss said, "Mmm, an hour." I added, "Maybe hour abd a half."

"No," he replied, "after you recork it."

Boss and I looked at each other, paused, then said - in perfect unison and harmony - "Recork it!?"

I then instructed him in the Greek method of opening wine bottles - you push the cork in, then you have to finish the bottle!

Because saying that to someone who needs to calm down is like adding wood and lighter fluid to a fire.

Maybe it sounds like telling someone who's angry that they have no real reason for anger?  It's dismissive and kind of bossy.

These nuns have a cell phone, but maybe they have to share because they are not allowed to have one their own? Perhaps you could ask The Senora Madre if you could get one to share with your fellow sisters?

I think that would be nice.
