Girlie talk … “My boyfriend really plans ahead. He always orders two beers instead of just one.”

A word to the wise: If at first you don’t succeed, be sure and destroy all the evidence that you tried.

At the office … “I hear the new boss’ toughest time was the three years he spent in second grade.”

Inside talk … “He’s been doing TV news so long, he calls a salad a ‘lead in.’”

And Cynic did radio and TV news so long ago that before he reported the weather, he went outside to check out the sky.
