Things That Are Not Funny

* Old Age Begins at 27? Professor Salthouse, you need to study something that makes for a less depressing headline

* Jay Leno. As I stated in my last post, Bristol Palin jokes are not funny. Hooray to my dad for switching the channel when you went there. Also, still telling Bush jokes? He's been gone for a while now, so maybe your writers could think up a nice Obama joke or something that's not been done for the last eight freaking years?

* Gracie the Digging Wonder Dog. I wonder why the stores can put out Christmas stuff in September, but can't put out the garden fence I need in March since they seem so far ahead in the sales cycle. The digging wonder will be tied up until such fence is available for sale. Actually, Gracie the dog is quite amusing, it's the digging that's not so much.

* Long hospital stays. A friend of mine has now been in the hospital for over two months. Oh and to add further joy, she's been confined to her room except for three trips out into the hall with her mask. She was supposed to get out last Tuesday. Sadly, she developed a fever and won't be out for at least another week - after her fourth bone marrow biopsy in as many weeks. Ouch.
