I learned about spodumene , an ore from which lithium is extracted.
He's looking at ways to invest in lithium.

Person: I can’t believe Kurt Cobain killed himself. He just seemed to be on top of the world
My best friend Mike: He f’ing wrote a song about lithium.

“It’s the plumber. I’ve come to fix the sink.”

I am definitely dating myself with that one.

I said, he's running a temperature. The assistant asked, where did you take it?

I almost said--the kitchen. But relented and said--in his butt.

I badly dislocated my left ankle in a senior softball tournament (I'll be 63 next month). One of the nurses said "You really did a good job on your ankle."

She had an accent I misidentified at first, and I said "You British have an odd definition of the word 'good'."

She replied I"m not British, but I'll let you work it out."

It then dawned on me she was an Aussie, so my retort was "OK then, I did a fair dinkum job on my ankle."

She got a big kick out of that.
