… Un! Na, nah na nah (had to!)

Good lord, I love how you play with words. What a delightful exploration of something not often considered (Such an unconsidered, unnoticed un!)

"It’s drunk, bringing you only ten bottles from that twelve pack, and it probably wants to spend a half hour in your shop complaining about its boss before passing out in your restroom." A personification like this makes me wonder what stories this ununcouth character has to tell.

Hope your finger feels better!

Thanks Erin...I'm pretty sure the distributor is going to have tales of their one big wine sale that got away and a few hot takes on why the Oakland A's are moving to Las Vegas (...the mob...it is always the mob...)...as for the finger I just tried negotiating with my doctor to give me a back alley MRI instead of threats of surgery but no dice...the bright side is I will have a really really expensive picture of my hand to gift my mother next christmas...

Well if nothing else I will have a $4000 finger by this time next week (after all the bills for 3 doctor visits, and ER visit, and 2 orthos and a hand specialist)...my other fingers are going to be extremely jealous of this one...

Are you sure this whole article isn't just a cosmic return based on your "Toot Your Own Horn" article?

...my time would be better spent complaining to an ER nurse to feed me whiskey and pull my finger (medically)....

See? Related for sure.
