So, I’m getting my hair done<\/s> cut, and there’s an ongoing conversation about family, the holidays, and so on. My stylist shared a few real gems:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1) A decent definition of “sufficiently drunk” is when you think that cows are really, really funny – but are still sober enough to think that running out into a cow field to try to push them over is a very bad idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2) “There’s something to that whole boy, girl thing,” because “women tend to be too cold, and men tend to generate insane amounts of heat. Two men in a bed is just too much!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And finally, number 3) We were talking about travel with family, and how with some family members it’s comfortable to just sit and read – or to be in each other’s presence. At which point he exclaims “yeah, I’m like that with my mom. I totally should have married my mom.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The salon murmured with gentle approbation, so he continued: “y’all – I’m from New Hampshire. We’re allowed to marry 1st cousins there.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Someone allowed as to how that might, or might not, be over the line. He finished: “Damn, you’re all just jealous because you don’t have any hot cousins.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a lighter note, my<\/strong> cousin was telling stories over Thanksgiving. He shared the story of how his handgun safety instructor had actually shot a mugger. Apparently the instructor was up against a wall and had already handed the guy his watch and wallet. Then the story changed to “now I’m -a- shoot you.” He turned around, drew his pistol, and shot the guy 17 times. When the police asked why he shot the man 17 times he answered: “I ran out of bullets.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seems perfectly reasonable to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, I’m getting my hair done cut, and there’s an ongoing conversation about family, the holidays, and so on.
