1. Someone ripped the fifth month out of my new calendar. I’m dismayed.
2. A woman fainted and fell onto the baggage carousel at the airport. But she’s slowly coming around now.
3. I saw a CraigsList ad that said, “Radio for sale, volume stuck at 10.” I said to myself, “Man, that’s a deal I can’t turn down.”
4. I’m sorry to hear your uncle was run over by a boat in Venice. My gondolences.
5. Today I gave my dead batteries away. They were free of charge.
6. It’s inappropriate to make a ‘dad joke’ if you’re not a dad. It’s a faux pa.
7. I’m going to have to return the camouflage jacket I bought last week. I just can’t see myself wearing it.
