On two songs and two jokes
“Sunglasses at Night.” This 80s pop song was apparently a “one-hit wonder” (at least to me) for its author/singer, Corey Hart. The video for it shows him being jailed and tortured by a totalitarian government while wearing sunglasses. Once dated a woman who really did wear sunglasses at night while driving once when we went out. It may not have been safe for us. Was she just ashamed to be with me and wanted anonymity? She could have also worn a burqa.
“Save It for Later.” This was another pop song from the 80s that I like. It was by The English Beat. Used the title words of the song with the same woman who was driving at night wearing sunglasses, when she said she had purchased a book but not read it yet (done that a lot myself). The song also reminds me of the phrase “delaying gratification” from a book by a pastor. One of song’s lines is, “you run away, you let me down.”
“Joke” by yours truly
Had a pretty good joke but then forgot it.
Probably best: may have been misbegotten.
“Hey, is that Miss Be Got In?”
“She’s a tease, so don’t put a lot in… of effort, that is.”
“Secret” by yours truly
“What is the secret to life?”
“Learning to walk and chew dumb at the same time.”
