What the Bleep is Foolish Times? Foolish Times is a free monthly tabloid publishing the best humor we can find (some months we search harder than others). The opinions or ideas expressed by contributors are not necessarily those of Foolish Times, its owner, advertisers, or associates, or their extended families, or their friends or neighbors, or their associated pen pals, up to and including cockatiels. All articles, graphics, photographs, and what-not (especially the what-not) are copyrighted by the so-called”writers” and”artists” who contribute them. Foolish Times uses invented names in all its stories, except in cases where public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental.

The Chucklehead Speaks A new year, a new decade. Can you believe it? It’s a marvelous feeling to be alive. Resolutions anyone? Last year I gave up coffee. That’s right, for a whole year I didn’t drink coffee. Some of you may be telling yourself that that’s too hard and could never do it. To me, it proves that a year is a very short amount of time and you really can do anything you want if you really tried. Exercise for me is a different story. I’m in pretty good shape for a guy who pecks funny thoughts on a keyboard all day. I used to run but gave it up when I found out no one was chasing me anymore. I know people who run all the time trying to attain the ‘runner’s high’. It takes several miles to get there. I can smoke and drink and get the same feeling from a flight of steps.

I go to the gym a few mornings every week to get my day going. I like lifting weights and I love to be in the pool. I try to schedule my pool time before the water aerobics class which is really just an opportunity for old ladies to splash around. All the other times, people are swimming laps. The other day, I wanted to end my workout by jumping in the pool. Some hyped up guy jumped in after me and asked how long I was going to use the lane. I told him, “Until my bladder is empty”. Instead of coming up with unrealistic resolutions for the new year, how about making small changes in your life. Kindness and controlling your emotions toward others should be attainable. Another attainable change would be your socks.
