Inappropriate (but safe) Jokes (foot in mouth disease)

Well, I did it again!

Last night at work, I was telling a co-worker (who happens to be gay, and is quite a flamboyant dresser) about something really odd that happened, and I described it as being really queer.

I *never* use that word! What made that word come out of my mouth?! I was mortified, but we both pretended it never happened.

So my dad knows a baseball hall of famer, and a coworker has asked me if I can get this ball player to sign one of his baseballs. He said he had to find the right one, b/c there are 2 different league balls from back then..

We were discussing this last week, and yesterday when I saw him I asked him, "So did you find your balls over the weekend?"

These all cheered me up!

This is one of my great boo-boos:

I was in the Science Fiction section of a large Barnes & Noble in Manhattan, looking for a copy of The Man In The High Castle, a well-known novel by a great science fiction author whose works should appear on the shelves of any reasonably competent bookstore. I looked through the shelves, and they not only don't have the novel I'm looking for, but they don't have anything by the author I'm looking for, which I found frustrating, and kind of unbelievable.

A nice young man comes up to me and asks, "Are you finding what you're looking for?"

"You have no Dick!" I answered.

Would that the floor had opened up and swallowed me. I was, of course, talking about Philip K. Dick.
