Wild Cards! – May 28, 2018

Happy Memorial Day!

Krazy Pic 1  In the fun category of Thou shalt not count thy chickens . . . 

Krazy Pic 2 I’m not a golfer, but I KNOW this can’t feel good!  (So do the spectators – check out their reactions, especially the guy in the yellow shorts, who mysteriously feels the need to hide!)

Life’s Truths! Just got this yesterday (Sunday), and I had to squeeze it in!  We’ve all seen similar ones, and smiled or chuckled; several of these made me laugh out loud!  And they’re so right on! (Well, most of them.)  They’re so good, I’ll share them over 2 or 3 mailings – Here are the first dozen!  ENJOY!

It Could Be Verse  An old once-a-month feature, I’m using this as a lead-in to the next topic.   A previously unshared ‘Verse’ (and it will quickly become apparent why it’s been unshared!)

Reader Contributions!  I’d like to start soliciting & sharing Reader Contributions again!  In the past, we’ve done Guest VoicesGuest Photos, and more, so let’s start there again.  I hope you can imagine (or remember) that Guest Voices covers a WIDE range of possibilities (see GuestVoiceThoughts, e.g.), and Guest Photos is likely an obvious category (include location, and short background with your pic).  So don’t be shy!!  Submission is no guarantee of sharing, of course, but I know the person responsible for selection, so . . .  Contact me (reply or use ContactForm ) if you have ANY questions at all.

Brain Teasers About a month left to get in on the fun for May/June!  THREE new BTs have been added this time, along with TWO new Bonuses!  Check them out, have some fun, and submit solutions!

June Birthdays FOURTEEN (known) subscriber birthdays in June!  (That puts June right up there with October for the most!).  See if you know any of them! (And of course, let us know if YOU should be there!)

Why He Teaches Part of a teacher’s blog eloquently gives insight into the life of a teacher – pain and joy – and why they love it!  Shared as part of today’s column, it makes an uplifting read.
