- I don't remember the Rose Parade being this boring. Parades were better when I was a kid. Parades today are dull.
- Bananas didn't used to be this hard to peel. They were easier to peel when I was younger. The world was a better place then.
- Why isn't somebody picking up after me? Somebody picked up after me when I was a kid. That made more sense than the way things are now. The world made more sense then.
- Is George W. Bush still President? He wasn't President when I was a kid. The world has gone so far downhill.
Happy New Year, everybody!

I've taken to slitting the skin just at the bottom of the stem (either with a knife, or with my thumbnail, a la the giant escargot hunters in Dick Tracy, when I was a kid) and THEN pulling downwards.
There, I've outsmarted that selfish Mother Nature, once again!
