While watching “The Love Boat” the other day, a commercial for an adjustable bed came on. You know the ones – the head and/or feet can be adjusted to rise or be flat, depending on your needs. It’s sort of a fancy hospital bed for the home.
Anyhoo… Mister turned to me and said, “Do you wish you had an adjustable bed?” I paused a moment, then told him that when I think about it, I’m convinced that will be a sign I’ve simply given up. And then I said that if I ever achieve the trifecta – an adjustable bed, AARP membership and a minivan – he’ll know I’ve given up completely.
Now before you go thinking this all sounds like a wasted afternoon, let me tell you – it wasn’t. Because out of that entire episode of “The Love Boat,” one good line was uttered by Gopher: I’ve never smelled something so bad it went up my ears before.
Comedy gold, friends. Comedy gold.
