Things I think about while walking the dog

- Whenever my boss asks me to do something, I should give a Japanese bow and reply "by your command."

- Fist-pumping Wolverine is not a good idea.

- If I had a word-a-day calendar and today's word was "inasmuch" and I had a lisp, it would sound like "an ass munch."

- Why is intellectualizing bad in psychotherapy when the purpose is to change your feelings by changing your thinking?

- It's hard to use the words "bastard" and "Dali Lama" in the same sentence.

Words don't make good bones

Words don't make good bones.
Don't try to rib up your lungs
With a sublime or grotesque poem,
Or everything that makes you upright
Will vanish at the speed of sound.
