Philosophy
My Fellow Comedists,
Taking advantage of one of the days when my semester is over but the short people are still in school, TheWife and I went down to Fells Point. At its heart is an establishment named after the namesake of the neighborhood, a business with one of the best names ever -- the Admiral Fell Inn. Seems like a good excuse for a comedist post.
What are other great business names? My inner-3rd grader has always chuckled at Johnson Controls. I can understand the need to contract that out.
Others?
Live, laugh, and love,
Irreverend Steve

- Oxymorons
My Fellow Comedists, Today the less short of the short people asked "What is an oxymoron"? Not wanting to use "jumbo shrimp" or "military intelligence," I came up with "vegetarian meatballs." I'd have said "happily married," but TheWife would have...
- Mixed Breeds
My Fellow Comedists, So TheWife has been beginning to think about dogs. Mixed breeds are much healthier than pure breeds and in terms of intelligence and shedding, poodles are a great dog to work into a mix. As a result, we now have lots of poodle mixes...
