You could probably get a good price for your clubs.”
Tim gets this horrified look on his face.
She says, “Darling, what’s wrong?”
“For a minute there you were beginning to sound like my ex-wife.”
“Ex-wife!” she screams, “I didn’t know you were married before!”

[Medieval Blind Faith] Things the history books didn’t tell us about medieval times. Many medieval saints were reputed to have healing powers, and they often cared for lepers and those afflicted with similarly gruesome diseases—by licking their wounds. St. Mary Magdalene of De’Pazzi licked the sores of the ill, and even sucked maggots out of wounds. St. Angela of Foligno drank water she had used to bathe a leper’s feet, and purposely swallowed one of his scabs. Link
Why in hell do construction companies or municipalities or utility companies, when they need to run a pipe or wire straight across a street, do they make a cut in the roadway about 1 inch wider than whatever they are installing? In short order the 4-inch cut and refill process fails, leaving one hell of a ditch for all vehicles to almost ruin tires or suspension on? Whoever got paid is long gone A wider cut and replacement of the road will last much, much longer, if not for as long as the original street.
