Missing That Leisure Suit Look

I did repaint our bedroom. My wife did wonder who gave me decorating advice. I do not have a leisure suit.

Missing Finger

Somehow, the other day, I heard someone on TV say "Give me five," and I wondered if that phrase should be adjusted if someone had lost a finger. That logically progressed into wondering what other phrases included a five that could/should be adjusted downward if someone has fewer than five fingers.

Super-Employee

I was thinking about the fact that we don't enough of some skillsets for all the proposed projects. I wondered if a few "super" employees could replace a small project team? That might introduce a different set of issues, though.

It's Called a Book

We can all suspect that there will come a day when everything will be digital instead of printed. Maybe not in our lifetime, but someday. This looks ahead to what our grandkids might say. I thought of it as I read a book recently on my tablet. In fact, since you can change the font size, my progress is displayed as a percentage read instead of pages since pages would be dynamic based on which font you use.

BDay at the Dis

Yup, it is my better half's birthday. Yup, she is on her way to Disneyland with the kids. No, we don't go there all the time, but we try to catch it 2-3 times per year in different seasons. That's a pretty good present, wouldn't you say?

Sincerest Form of Flattery

My daughter-in-law gave my wife a birthday card this weekend based on my CoV strip. It was funny and included a number of my wife's famous funny comments. I would have shared that actual strip, but it is only funny within the family where we remember when some of the events occurred. So, instead, I decided to honor her with a strip about creating the CoV-based card.

Naming Bathrooms

This morning, for some unknown reason, I started wondering about a clever way to use 'Bay of Pigs' in a Clarity of Vision comic. I really had no initial concept of what direction it would lead. Then, thinking of the word 'pig,' I thought of how some guys leave scraps of paper towels on the bathroom floor and don't even pick them up. Boom. The two ideas joined and I knew where today's CoV would lead.
