Tip and Trivia

Scope it, as in Horoscope: Simply put, there is such a thing as a stupid question.

Bonehead Tip of the Day: Just because you feel like a fool (for some reason) while walking alone, go ahead and pick up the phone and use it. There is a good chance of walking into something. Then you will not want the attention. Bragging about your days off when you know others will be working a holiday is never a fun thing to do - - or funny.

Trivia: The term "jock" dates back to around 1670 and has nothing to do with the jockstrap. It is from jockeys - - those guys who ride the horses. And one way supporters (not the jockstraps) of the American Revolution separated themselves from the royal folk was to wear trousers.

Closer: You are there, yet. So be quiet.
