In response to last week’s
imponderable question, “Can you be outstanding indoors?,” my temple friend Tracey
observed, “Absolutely! It depends on where your talents lie.”
My writing and sailing friend Rich
replied, “Yes, yes you can,” to which my social media friend Mark explained, “In
several ways;
- you
can be an outstanding door salesperson
- you
can be an outstanding person, but only inside
- you can be an outed gay
proudly standing in all doorways
My dad’s beach buddy Bob recalled,
“Certainly. The best meals are cooked indoors....many in my
kitchen.....Jumbo shrimp stuffed with crabmeat ....a side of rice Florentine.
Desert will be raspberry ice cream with chocolate chinks.”
And my temple friend Henry
called out, “A great example of how to be outstanding indoors is Hal and his
team during the Ecumenical Thanksgiving Celebration the Thursday before
Thanksgiving (click here for details).” Note:
The same can be said for Henry and team as they finish another Habitat
for Humanity build.
Please send me your thoughts about this week's "things that
make you go 'Hmmm' ":
When are lefties right?
For the ‘right 13%
of the population,’ Aug 13 is Left Handers Day
Lord, give me a sense of humor; give me the ability to
understand a clean joke; to get some humor out of life, and to pass it on to
other folks.
Hal
Thanks to Demetri Martin, Steven
Wright and George Carlin for the inspiration for Hmmm. I invite you
to call or email me to catch up.
