“May you live to be a thousand years old, sir.” 🎥

“Bye, Steve. Good party.” 🎥

I vastly underestimated how much not being able to run a Windows VM on an M3 MacBook Pro would cramp my style.

“Is somebody playing with the computers?” 🎥

“Hi. My name is Werner Brandes. My voice is my passport. Verify me.” 🎥

Made it through a speed check going 80 this morning. I did say, “oh fudge”, out loud, so I got that going for me.

Wordle tried to trip me up with letters I don’t usually pick. Whew!

Missed the Wordle today and ended a 58 day streak.

“You’d be perfectly happy with two eighths instead of a quarter? That’s awfully big of you.” 🎥

“Well, this whole thing is just who knows who. Then over here you have favoritism.” 🎥

“I want to get one thing straight here, or I’m walkin’ too. I don’t work on January the 8th…cause that’s Elvis’ birthday.” 🎥

“Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues brothers…has been approved.” 🎥

“Merry New Year!” 🎥

I made my first attempt to charge my EV at an Electrify America charging station. I tried to use the “second” plug on a unit, but another patron let me know that won’t work. Silly me, I thought two plugs on a unit meant two chargers. There’s two to accommodate either side of a car’s charging port location (the cords are short). There were no open chargers available and two other people waiting, so I left. I’m sure I provided a chuckle to everyone watching. Oh, well.

“Who own The Chiefs?” 🎥

“Great! You’ve killed The Invisible Swordsman!” 🎥

“How about a nice hot dog and a beer?” 🎥

“The ice…is going to break!” 🎥

“Can’t take it anymore, Felix, I’m crackin’ up. Everything you do irritates me. And when you’re not here, the things I know you’re going to do when you come in irritate me. You leave me little notes on my pillow. Told you 158 times I cannot stand little notes on my pillow! ‘We are all out of Corn Flakes - F.U.’ Took me 3 hours to figure out that F.U. was Felix Ungar.” 🎥
