    Reminds me of a story I know I’ve told before but I’ll never stop telling it.

    I once worked with and hung out with this guy in São Paulo who would go to crowded bars and maneuver himself such that his back would brush up against a woman’s back. But instead of instantly pulling away like you normally would when that happened, he would keep it there a bit longer than normal or even lean in just a bit.

    He said most girls immediately pulled away but one in ten would stay still, or even lean back into him.

    He said invariably he’d end up taking those girls home.

    So I said to him ‘are you telling me that out of every 10 girls you do that to, 1 comes home with you?’

    And he said ‘No, Jon, out of every thousand girls I do that too, 100 go home with me’.

                                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                  Ha.

                                  I was curious what happened to him. He was killed in a car accident in 92, 6 days after marrying his third wife.

                                  The killer was a 17 year old drunk driver. He got probation and community service and lost his license for 2 years.

                                      I guess it has been 28 years so I can make the joke of... he probably went out the same way he lived his life. Screaming.

                                        I was thinking of trying to create a meme

                                        1918 - “My Spanish Flu wiped out 100,000,000 people”

                                        1349 - “My Bubonic Plague wiped out half of Europe “

                                        536 - “I started with a volcanic eruption that covered the earth in a dust cloud that dropped the temperature to the lowest levels since the ice age. No crops would grow. Millions died from starvation. Then came the plagues...Predators became far more aggressive due to lack of prey, leading to more attacks on humans, laying the foundation and the truth behind the horrible myths that would become legend.”

                                        2020 - “Hold my beer...”
