If I only had a brain, Part 6

Recently, Kent embarked on a new business venture. He expanded the ice business to include wild game processing. I'm so proud of him! Now, how do I fit into the mix? And how does the 'if I only had a brain' figure in?

Well, I'm in charge of decorating & promoting the new and improved, Trainham Ice & Meat. On the deco-side, I've added an extra touch to the bathroom and the 'meat' room. On the promo-side, I've done business cards, posters, banners, coffee mugs, t-shirts, newspaper ads and, finally, a radio spot. This is where my brain forgot to work.

Well, for four long days I've been listening to the radio trying to catch our ad. And I was a little frustrated because it had a bit of static which I blamed on my living locale. Anyway, yesterday the host of the morning show talked of wrecking her car on Callfield and something or other. I actually thought, "Hmmm, did they move KVRP's station broadcasting to Wichita Falls?" Then the light came on...I had been tuning into the wrong station (KLUR) the entire time. DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One more reason to keep my 'if I only had a brain' coffee mug.

Tam...sometimes I think you just make up this stuff to make us older people feel better!

Well...it works!! (It's comforting to think that younger people might do dumb things too.)

What if you did things like this every day of your life??????

Ya'll both crack me up!!! I'm thankful that I'm not the only one this stuff happens to...and even then, I'm crazy enuff to share it with the whole world.

I only wish that I had made this one up...someday I'll tell ya about the cantaloupe story from when I was in college. You see, it's been a lifetime jammed-pack-full of 'if I only had a brain' moments.
