Have You Ever Noticed…

Have you ever noticed that the same person, who asks you in January if it is cold enough for you, is the same person who will be asking you in August if it is hot enough for you?

Have you ever noticed that during the first hot spell of the season, the nightly news feels obligated to tell us how to deal with it?

Have you ever noticed that the same nightly news are also kind enough to give us tips on how to handle the first snowstorm we have? They even tell us to slow down when the roads are slippery.

Have you ever noticed how much you appreciate the people you live with after a family member finally leaves following an excruciating, tension packed 10-day visit?

Have you ever noticed the long distance relative you do wish would come for a visit never does?

Have you ever noticed the long distance relatives you pray won’t come for a visit always do.

Have you ever noticed that the people who question your honesty and integrity are usually the most conniving, scheming cretins around?

Have you ever noticed that attention-seeking women that wear tops cut down to their waist always seem to ask, “What are you looking at?”

Have you ever noticed the people who merit the most recognition and praise are usually the ones that shy away from the limelight?

Have you ever noticed that most of the time; the people that love to talk nonstop about war have never served in one?

Have you ever noticed that some people are happier bitching and complaining than they are having things the way they want them?

Have you ever noticed that Texas Hold ‘em Poker is now considered a sport? What’s next, Scrabble?

Have you ever noticed that the guy who has been drinking tappers all night always seems to order a Beefeater martini when you offer to buy a round?

Have you ever noticed that the name of the best pizza places always end in a vowel? Coincidence? I think not.

Have you ever noticed if you enjoy something and it tastes good, it is never good for you?

Have you ever noticed that the things that are supposed to be good for you always are much more expensive? Why is that?

Have you ever noticed the ever-increasing number of remakes of old movies being made? Does anyone have an original idea anymore?

Have you ever noticed that people that act “Holier than Thou” usually aren’t?

Have you ever noticed that most of the time people, who don’t like a particular thing, have never tried, tasted, read or listened to that particular thing?

Have you ever noticed that the older you get, you remember the good old days being better and better?

Until next time…
