I once read an account of a man visiting Spain who was trying to purchase an umbrella and a pair of men’s gloves. He gave his order in Spanish to the clerk who seemed quite bewildered, then left to summon the manager. Again the man repeated his order in what he believed to be perfectly understandable Spanish. “I want an umbrella and a pair of men’s gloves.” The manager blinked, then responded politely, “But, Senor, WHY do you want to wallop your horse with a parachute?” Apparently the words for “man” and “horse” and “umbrella” and “parachute” were similar enough that he mixed them up.
Actually, it doesn’t hurt to have a low cabinet or drawer with harmless plastic bowls, spoons, and such for the baby to pull out and play with. The trash, however, needs to be secured lest you have to take your dog to the vet with a case of “garbage gastritis” or a can stuck on her nose!
WAY back in the 70’s my hubby had a tan polyester leisure suit which he wore with a shirt with a black, tan, rust and white pattern. We both thought it looked pretty good! No longer have it, though.
Assuming he’s not sleeping on the side you need to get out by! I have had to move my cat more than once (earning an irritated meow) because climbing over my husband and waking HIM up is not the way to go!
Hockey players, especially goalies, are at risk of losing teeth when they get hit in the face with a hard rubber puck. I think boxing gloves are a little less likely to knock out teeth.
Classic villain weakness…while they are busy gloating the hero finds a way to escape and defeat them!
