Now tagless for your comfort.

the Salem area has a mini-chain of package stores called Bunghole Liquors.

the one in Peabody plays a crucial role as a landmark when I give directions.

I can see this because of the use of the term in barrels but it's still funny.

Of course that word is never not funny.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Wait a minute there! Isn't a broach a thing a lady wears?

It is both a noun and a verb.

Hey, all!!!

My hand feels oh so much better today. One wee blister and a patch of oddly thick/white skin, but painfree. Yay!

Wait a minute there! Isn't a broach a thing a lady wears?

Isn't a broach a thing a lady wears?

Isn't that a brooch? Or did I totally make up that word, since now it seems totally wrong?

I thought "broach" was a cooking method (not really).

Our wings are not tired.

I was joking about the jewelry broach since my mom uses the word often, but now I see that it is often spelled brooch. Learned sumpin new I did.

It's Friday. This is a long day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Broach" is also a word describing when a torpedo fails to maintain its set depth and shoots up out of the water.

Broast is the cooking method.

Yeah, it's hard to get through the brewery tour at Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee without snorting and giggling like a twelve-year-old. Though it's just possible the amount of beer they pour into you on those tours is also a contributor.
