Thoughts of stuff

I got on Facebook a few minutes ago and there's a picture of my brother with my daughter. He went to see her in a play she was in yesterday. I knew nothing of this.
I really have to stay in touch more.

I hear the Gore's are getting divorced.
NOW I'm worried.

I was in a cab in New York recently.
The driver had that classic look of someone from India.
I'm not profiling here.
I asked, "Where are you from?"
He answered, "India"
Anyway, that hour of my life spent with him was quite enjoyable.
We just talked about life, jobs, economy, you know, just stuff.
At one point he said, "Yesterday is in the past...today is an adventure....and tomorrow a mystery."
I countered with, "Dude, I like that."
His beautiful accent made it sound like I was driving with Nostradamus or something.
I know this.
I exited his cab, in a better mood than when I entered his cab.
Nice guy.

For some reason I was thinking back today to a dinner date my wife and I had about 28 years ago.
We went to a upscale restaurant, hoping the Chef would be able to handle my wife's vegetarian palate.
I was in a nice suit, she, in a beautiful dress.
After I ordered my steak and baked potato, my wife mentioned to the server that she was vegetarian.
The blank look on his face should have been warning enough.
After we ate our delicious salads, we waited with anticipation for the beautiful meal that was sure to come.
As we sipped our wine at our table draped with a white tablecloth, I glanced around, and noticed a room full of patrons, all handsomely dressed. The ambiance was just perfect with a piano player somewhere in the background, stroking the ivory keys gently.
The server approached, and gently placed my wife's meal in front of her.
One dish had a baked potato.
One dish had a side of cooked spinach.
Thank heavens things in the world have changed.

I love how my Protein Pro V shampoo makes my hair look.
Just kidding, just seeing if you read the whole post.
