Limes: Lemons’ uglier more bitter brothers. Limes taste pretty bad so they are only used to make something that tastes worse than a lime, taste as good as a lime. And, in that respect, it works for things like Margaritas and Mexican beer. Also, it keeps you from tasting the keys in a key-lime pie…
Kermit the Frog: Soft spoken, self-deprecating de facto leader of the Muppets. Nothing special about him except that he is sporadically sexually harassed by an oversexed sow, as many of us have been. How did he get his job as leader? Not by charisma, that’s for sure. His father, Kermit Sr. was a mobster who had contacts in the entertainment industry… a great place to put a son who just couldn’t handle the family business. He tried giving the business to Gonzo but he was shot one hundred times at a toll booth…
Bonsai Trees: Serial killers often claim that they hear voices and have no control in the killing of their victims. That’s pretty much me with bonsai trees, except the voices say things like, “Don’t buy another bonsai tree” and “Put that back, now!”. I’ve accidentally killed so many bonsai trees that the Japanese embassy has a restraining order against me.
Edamame: All the fun of peeling away a tough husk with the reward being peas.
St. Patrick’s Day Beer: Green beer is like the worm in a bottle of Mezcal: Neither is going to get you any drunker but consuming either is a great indicator of how drunk you are. As the late night vomiting begins, you have what looks like dozens of Linda Blair impersonators walking the streets.
Ireland: Yeah, the Emerald Isle… HOW I HATE IT! Mostly because of the Samuel Beckett novels that they made me read in college; but, a little because that stupid accent attracts all women within earshot. That makes me so mad that I violated my rule against using the word “earshot”…
Grass Snake: The grass snake is non-venomous… so it kills its prey by poking its head out, surprising and stopping the heart of the poor idiot who is weeding his mom’s vegetable garden…
The Hulk: I have insane violent rages and all it ever got me was a trip to the therapist. Bruce Banner destroys buildings and he’s asked to join the Avengers. That, in my opinion, is enabling or codependency or something. I put my fist through the bathroom wall when they canceled Person of Interest… where’s MY Scarlett Johannson?
Pork Chops: Okay, they were too old to eat… but I contend that the mold on them might’ve cured some undiagnosed condition I might’ve had…
The Gables that Anne was Under: My father wanted me to read House of Seven Gables. My mid-term memory being what it was, I read Anne of Green Gables, which was definitely NOT a waste of a week of my life. My father’s Alzheimer’s kicked in before we could discuss either book and I am gabled out. If anyone asks me to read another book with the word “gable” in the title, I’m going to hit them with a dead bonsai tree…
I am at this moment wishing death on all things green. I am at this moment painting my cat green too

Why’d you tell me that they canceled “Person of Interest”?
I’m only on episode 4, – so much like “Blacklist,” it’s uncanny.

Both are beautiful shows… in fact, outside of Bojack Horseman, the only current shows I watch.

I must heartily disagree and stand up for my favorite color. Limes are essential to my beloved gin and tonics and Ireland gave us Guinness. Your arguments are invalid. Long live green!

Gin tastes bad. Limes make gin and tonic taste as good as a lime. BTW, my favorite drink, before I stopped drinking, was gin and tonic. Great beach drink…

I’ll save you my obvious comment here involving a phone call. Instead, I lament the poor bonsai trees that have been lost. Long live bonsai!

I still have bonsai books with lots of photos and techniques… but without owning one, it’s kind of like looking through a dirty magazine…
