You would think,
by now,
Santa Claus
must have been
permanently
stuck in one
of the millions
of chimneys
he has climbed
down?

Slow learner
I had a
golden rule
which was
“Don’t apply
for another
job unless you
are invited to”.
But I seem to
always break
golden rules –
“Don’t read
the comments,
unless they are
your own”,
“Don’t contact
old friends
unless they contact
you first”.
You’d think I
would learn.
Last word
After you die
your first job
should be to
get your
obituary
written before
someone else
beats you to it
You say you want a
Revolution
can never come
about by the
gentle
persuasion of
the ruling class
to give up the
benefits they
receive from
the current
system
Age related
Any day now,
some day soon,
the young people
I see who are
nurses, shop
assistants, car
mechanics,
policemen; or
who are pushing
prams full of
crying babies, are
going to be old
enough to be
not my children,
not my grand children,
but my great
grandchildren.
The road taken
I took the road
less followed,
and found
land mines,
trolls, bandits,
potholes, mud
patches, fallen
trees, and then
my car broke
down. Next time
my way is the
highway.
Titled
Perhaps I
could call my
autobiography
“The Old Man
and the C”?
Definitions by example
“Religious cult”
is a tautology;
“Sustainable
development”
is an oxymoron.
Rock-a-bye baby
Let me get
this straight,
some people
think that telling
their baby that
while they are
asleep their cradle
will crash to the
ground when a
bough breaks
is a way of
getting them
to sleep?
I read the news today, oh boy!
Paul
McCartney
is seventy seven
and Ringo
Starr
is seventy nine?
Wait a minute.
I’ve lost fifty
years somewhere.
Anyone seen them?
