#160 - Fly Wet Glue
Johnny is rarely on the left side of anything. Driving in Barbados forced him to the other side of the road, much to the chagrin of his white-knuckled family.

Johnny dreaded his family vacation in Barbados. He worried it might not be "a day at the beach." But, much to his surprise, he was wr-wr-wrong.
Super Bowl XLIX is almost here and our 2 Legends are feeling anxious. As fans of the Patriots, Dave and Johnny don't want to, once again, feel deflated should their beloved team lose. (See what we did there?)
Dave and Johnny are nervous fans when it comes to the NE Patriots playing in the NFL playoffs. Now, before you and the rest of America get all hateful regarding our Legends' favorite team, just remember, the name Tom Brady has a nice ring to it... Actually 3 rings to it...
The internet is down in Dave's office, Johnny's LED bulbs don't work in his chandelier, and the podcast sound mixer is always a problem. We know, First World Problems are a real pain in the... circuit box.
A little bit of freezing rain sends New England drivers into a tizzy. Hello people? You didn't see winter coming? These drivers are divided into two groups, idiots or maniacs, and you know which type you are.
Dave shaved his goatee and Johnny was quite surprised. People say Dave looks years younger. In fact, if Johnny were to let his gray beard grow, our 2 Legends might be mistaken for father and son. Hey, it could happen.
There is a dearth ($10 word) of dining choices near Dave's office in "Idaho." Usually, it's the Chinese buffet or a place that doesn't have meatloaf. Please note: chopped sirloin is not almost like meatloaf.
Johnny's a bit miffed. What else is new? He offered to buy his dad's old car hoping his father might give it to him. Uh, not so much. Dear old dad did accept a bank check though. Ah, family.
So Johnny was suffering from "numb wrists", and he thought it would be a great idea to have an acupuncturist stick needles in his ears to fix the problem. Makes sense, right?
When someone close dies, do you "grieve" by cracking jokes? Johnny does; it is who he is; he can't help it. He's even prepared a few quips should Dave precede him below the grass.
It's fall in New England and Johnny's revving up his new gas-powered leaf blower. He should hurry though, because soon it might be outlawed in his snooty suburb.
Dave and PRY4SNO begged out of a rainy Thursday night Patriots game to "study." So, Johnny took his wife, daughter, and son (who brought a flask). It was painless.
You've all seen those avid cyclists with their colorful-spandex-Euro--scruffy-bearded-I'm-better-than-you attitude. Well, Johnny is having none of it, especially when those weenies feel the need to give him unsolicited "advice."
We love autumn in New England, but the daunting prospect of winter tempers that affection. And Johnny likes the smell of burning leaves, but his enviro-conscious, nosy suburban neighbors had to call 911 "and ruin it."
Dave and his college buddies reunite once a year, but no one knows why. Chicago was their place of choice this time and, as usual, Dave found many things which annoyed him, not the least of which were the hapless Cubs and baseball in general.
Johnny's whining about how his family seems to challenge him on everything. Dave rarely tests the big guy because he knows he comes off as reasonable by comparison.
One of our Legends is prone to vanity and, surprisingly, it's not the younger of the two. Johnny actually spent $75 on a tooth whitening kit which left his wife with some bitter aftertaste.
We know Johnny is old and he talks about his aches and pains ad nauseum. But, ever since Dave turned 40, he's been hearing noises emanating from his body, and they're not from the Mexican food he ate the night before.
Johnny was good this year and bought his niece's school supplies before the last minute rush. What he didn't realize was all that stuff was a lot more expensive than when he was a kid during the Eisenhower administration.
What would you pay for lunch at the local zoo? Johnny thought when he left Disney the price of a simple meal would be more reasonable. Well, it's time to wake up, smell the deep fryer and open your wallet.
Johnny's pickup truck has been in the shop for two weeks. He loves his mechanics but among his own crew, he's a distinct minority. And please don't get Dave started on the shady car dealer next door.
Have you noticed lately people are acting meaner than ever? It's gotten so bad Dave has come up with a new word, and Johnny, our resident wordsmith, is quite impressed.
Johnny assumed his appointment at the Apple Store would be as easy to work with as the products they sell. Ah, but somehow those "geniuses" forgot about the 215 lb. scowling bald man for 45 minutes. Time to "Think Different" again.
Have you ever eaten at a restaurant in North Carolina and been charged for something in Australia? Well, Dave has, and he's still got that sinking feeling 'Down Under'. Imagine that.
All Dave needed was an updated list of all his immunizations. What his local doctor's office wanted to do amounted to an involuntary full-body cavity search.
Would you ever eat a giant turkey leg, or are those "treats" just for the great unwashed masses? Check out the incident that began at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and escalated quickly into a meaty debate.
There are two things weighing on Johnny's mind: back waxing and rude Russians. What do these two subjects have in common? Stay tuned comrade.
Are we ready for the TV news hype as tropical storm Arthur is allegedly determined to ruin the 4th of July on the East Coast? Of course not, but like the weather, there's not a damn thing we can do about it.
You say you could not care less about the World Cup and soccer? We hear you. And while the rest of the global audience has been sucked in to this soap opera of an alleged sport, remember, it may be just a matter of time until "futbol" and professional wrestling agree to merge.
