By now the lump, that only six months ago br had started out as a possible zit on the top of my head br has reached the size of a small Brussels sprout; br and it’s too bad because I like Brussels sprouts br I’m just glad it isn’t the size of a half gallon of Rum br or a two liter bottle of Diet Pepsi; because that would be br a real bummer and probably be call for a tall stiff drink. br I remember as a kid when I had jumped in a deep ditch br and knocked out my front teeth. It was nothing major; br a root canal, a little pain killer and a doctor’s note for school. br The note was the most important of the three. br But today at my advanced age; everything is a death sentence br and you don’t even get the sympathy notes anymore.
