Another tough week in the books. So it’s time for Dick’s Details from today’s podcast. Dick’s Details is a bunch of totally unimportant stuff for you to stuff in one ear, so you can squeeze the important stuff that could get you into lots of trouble out the other ear, and you can grab a grin and win. By the way you usually win when you grin. Lots of people will try to wipe the grin off your face. Grin some more. It’ll drive em nuts. The zoo guys claim lions can mate as often as 50 times a day. No word about what the lionesses have to say about that. I’ve got to admit that my lust lion isn’t quite that active. Most days. Statisticians tell us that the average American puts 3.2 ice cubes in his soda glass. Who puts point two ice cubes in a glass? Ever try breaking an ice cube into point two? If the answer is “Quicksilver” what is the question? I’ll tell you in a minute. The ancient Chinese used urine as a mouth wash. And we complained when our moms washed our mouths out with soap. By the time he died in 1910, the king of Siam had fathered 370 children. Talk about a guy with a Lust Lion. He probably died of exhaustion. If the answer is “Quicksilver” the question is “What does the Lone Ranger say to his horse when he’s in a hurry?” Quicksilver. Reminds me of my favorite Lone Ranger story…The Ranger and Tonto were at a bar, when the Ranger asked Tonto to go out and give Silver a bath. Tonto was thirsty so he did the job on the run so he could get back into the bar. While he was at it a guy came into the bar and asked the masked man if that big white horse was his. The Ranger said yes. So the guy said, I hate to tell you but you left your Injun running. I know. Politically insensitive. Dick’s Details. They take your mind off your mind. A little housekeeping here. If you like these podcasts, or my spoken word story CDs at dicksummer.com, or my book Staying Happy Healthy And Hot, would you please tell a couple of friends because they might like them too, and you’d be doing me a favor. Thank you very much.
