"Now THAT'S a lame excuse!"

today I was in Big bux and I saw our local journalist.  She was by herself so I said:

"You are more then welcome to join me if you like"

she replied:

"I would but I have bills to pay!"

I thought, now that is one of the most lame excuses I ever heard.  It reminded me of when I had a blind date in Hampden (Baltimore) at a pizza shop.

the guy wasn't there but 5 minutes when he said: "I've gotta go, I think I left my oven on!"

"Waiting, waiting................waiting"

There he is......................No, this guy is wearing a black leather jacket, but NOT balding, i must be wrong. Oh, THERE he is, this guy's 5'7, and balding,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,no, that can't be him, he didn't mention being african american....................oh, there he is, 5'7, 150, black leather jacket,,,,,,,,,,,,nope that can't be him, he's wearing a wedding ring.

Oh, there he is. No, long black jacket, not leather. Oh, there he is! Nope, didn't mention being Asian, and that's a BROWN leather jacket!

Well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,time to head home...........................looks like I've been stood up again!

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME
