Wait, just wait

Really? I always thought Mars was larger than Earth…I learned that many moons ago. If this scientific consensus is true, how did Earth survive? A wallet that says Bad Motherfucker? Are we really two deeply-fused planetary bodies? If so, it would sure explain a lot of the weird shit I have to deal with, like Al Gore, and people who can’t listen to their voice mail before they return a call. “Whadja want?” Well, let me explain in detail again, since I’ve got naught else to do.
That right there is a big ‘don’t-give-a-shit’ gene activator. Alert the biologists.

Mars isn’t bigger, though.

It isn’t? OK, then, never mind. Is it Venus that’s bigger? Ah, piss on it. Bigger, smaller, it would still explain a lot.

Just reply, “I want you to listen to your voice mail.” FWIW, I hate rambling voice mails that repeat the same information, are full of pauses, and uhs and ums. If you leave me one of those and it runs 4 minutes, odds are good I will not listen to it for more than 30 seconds.

Mars is a lot smaller than Earth. That is why the gravity is lower, too (less mass.)

WTF was I thinking of? Man, I hate being that wrong. Senility creeps in. Yall will find me wandering down the street in a bathrobe with a wheelbarrow full of computer parts soon. I can’t wait.

Mars is just one tenth the mass of Earth. Size-wise, it’s a third or a quarter as big. I agree on rambling voice mail msg’s, though I do usually listen to them.

Mars is just one tenth the mass of Earth. Size-wise, it’s a third or a quarter as big. Venus is also smaller, but not by so much. It has about 80 percent the mass of Earth. Sorry about that.

Sorry for the double post.

When you leave a voice mail leave the return # first then the message.I cant stand to listen to the whole thing over again just to get the call back #

Good tip on the voice mail, Teddy. I’ll use that in my new job. If I can remember it long enough. And if I am employed there long enough.

Big Tex waves his arm … wait… That’s Big Tex Liquor Store

When did that happen? Who remembered that Big Tex’s arm waves only at the liquor store? I’m giggling.

That was an argument at By George in the 90’s. You were sure big Tex used to wave his arm. Some on efinally recalled The huge eon Big Tex waving customers over. The German believes the Store wa son Central.

On this one, you’re wrong. I was the one who remembered that it was the liquor store on Central that had a waving arm. It was one of those barfly friends of mine. Because, while I might forget planetary dimensions, I don’t forget liquor stores or their beckoning neon limbs.

No Sir. You thought in your child hood Big Tex used to wave. I believe it was th efollowing day that I recalled the Neon Big Tex sign. I called you and we got a tremendous laugh
