- Thumbs up from Dennis Rodman at last night’s Bulls game.
- You’re selected as the next male cast member of “Friends.”
- Your date can’t quite decide which one of the Little Rascals you resemble the most.
- Rod Stewart, Lyle Lovett and Michael Bolton over at the next table pointing and laughing their asses off.
- An hour before the square dance, and there’s not an ounce of bacon fat to be found!
- Three cans of hairspray and you *still* look like the flying nun.
- To get to your office from the parking lot, you have to tack into the wind three times.
