BRUCE A. BRENNAN BLOG FROM THE WORLD AND MY MIND
The news as I see it and the views as I want them.
May 21 is … National Memo Day and National Waitresses/Waiters Day and National Ross Graduates From Law School Day
My Black Eyed Susan pick finished third.
If you are reading this, the world did not end today as predicted. We dodged another zealot moron and his followers. I have read the Bible and it does not mention a date for the end of the world and the Bible is not a puzzle book.
I am wondering, if the world ends will it do so by time zones like New Year’s Eve. Will we be able to watch Sydney, Australia end, then Europe and then New York? That could be fun to watch as a big glitter ball descends to Armageddon.
HAPPY GRADUATION FROM LAW SCHOOL DAY TO MY SON ROSS. WAY TO GO BUDDY. YOUR MOTHER AND I ALONG WITH YOUR BROTHER AND SISTER ARE VERY PROUD OF YOU.
Remember the story about the waiter stealing $91,000.00. Why we giving them a day? Of course there is also the story about the New York Yankees and Dallas Cowboys allegedly stealing from the waiters and waitresses.
