Deep(er) Thoughts
More from the Brain Pool...
Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what it has done for you lately.
Absence makes the heart go flounder.
Better to marry than be bored.
Better to divorce than to bore.
Love is a game where practice never makes perfect (unlike Russian Roulette).
Alcohol is a gift for the mediocre.
Reality TV is performance art as practiced by amateurs.
Technology is a fashion statement.
No city is worth living in if you are forced to enjoy it by car.
Whines get bitter with age.
The best-looking cafés serve the worst coffee.
If the shoe fits, put on the other one.

The Toronto Maple Leafs Haiku
You only get three lines: it's too funny for me; too sad for your fans. Golf, Leafs, Golf! Note: I wrote this after the team choked out in the second round (their first time there in 19 years). As a Montréal Canadians fan, I try not to laugh at the bozos on blades...but it is hard to do so...

To Speak of Secret Futures
Our coffees cool between us on the breakfast counter. You stare at the curls of steam so you don't have to look at me. That's always been your tell. Usually your gaze speaks volumes, so when you refuse to meet my eye, that means you have a secret you don't want to say.

Great stuff, Kendall. But maybe get out for a walk- good heavens you've all Montreal to distract you from the madness! 🤣🤣🤣🤪🤣🤣🤣
Some real gems here, Kendall! I have to consider whether this one "Love is a game where practice never makes perfect (unlike Russian Roulette)." couldn't also be "(much like Russian Roulette)" LOL great list. Well done!
