Corny or Funny

My wife gave me a gale warning. I thought we got on with Gale. 

My wife came back from a conference having given a talk in a large auditorium, saying she hated mics. I wonder what upset her as she works with two Mikes.

We were camping in a tent and my wife heard someone outside in the trees. She even guessed their name! She said "Did you hear a rustle?"

My wife had a second man named Bill who joined the company. It seems to be bothering her because as she was going through the mail recently, she was muttering "Not another bill".

There is a mean kid in our street named Oscar that no one likes. My wife was telling off our teenage daughter for being dramatic. She said "You deserve an Oscar". 

Our neighbour's name is Blair. I know because he was playing loud music and my wife said I'm sick of that blare.

The Hunt: Prey vs Predator

A new TV Series The Hunt: Prey vs Predator was run by Channel 4 in the UK. It was shown on NZ television by TV One and available on demand. I like The Traitors and it had some similarities so decided to give it a go. At first I felt frustrated as fast runners had a distinct advantage. However, I persisted and enjoyed it more as it progressed. 

An unnecessary negative for me is the producers didn't bleep out swearing. It wasn't outrageous but enough to make me consider giving up. Otherwise it's worth a watch. It didn't have the budget of The Traitors but that didn't worry me. 

Apparently there won't be another one as it didn't generate the viewer numbers hoped for in the UK. Maybe many people didn't know about it. I only stumbled upon it after several episodes in. 

Musings

A look can say more than words.

Humility is not a weakness but a strength that is well worth mastering. 

Saving isn't about how much you earn, but what you don't spend.

Empathetic listening requires more than just hearing what is said; it also involves feeling what is said. 

We can be so impatient to arrive at a destination that we fail to enjoy the journey.

Tolerance isn't agreeing, but rather accepting someone else's right to think and act differently.

Never underestimate hope. It helps us cope with trials and uncertainty with positivity.

A plan only becomes useful when it's executed sucessfully.

It's one thing to be self-confident but quite another to be egotistical. A line not to be crossed. 

Getting angry is a reaction. Remaining angry is a choice.
