Under the Wire

What do you do when there is “nothing” to do?

Well, my solution is to pick up the “Docket Gold” yellow pad, find my uni-ball ink pen and start writing “Under The Wire!”

Surprisingly within minutes I will have half of a page of sentences about … nothing. I have always heard that everybody is good at something. I seem to be the exception with my “good at nothing” skills! I probably don’t have much competition at my “doing nothing,” proving that most people are good at … something!

I might want to consider offering classes on “How to do nothing!” The only problem with that idea, as I see it, would be folks wanting to pay “nothing” to learn how to do “nothing.” Maybe I could offer free lunches or something like that! Of course, I’d have to feature only empty plates. That would reduce my costs considerably. Pretty smart, huh? OK, so I won’t be looking forward to your responses!

That’s OK because I just realized my “Docket Gold” legal pad has fifty pages! It’s going to take a bit of time to fill all of them with “nothing.” That’s OK because I’m getting pretty good at “nothing”!

Ironically, I just received a phone call from some lady who said she was with the “Better Business Bureau” wanting to speak to the business owner. I quite honestly told her he is on the phone and can’t talk to you right now! Guess I could have told her, “he is busy … doing nothing!”

Just had a thought. If there is a better business bureau, is there also a really bad business bureau?

Sure hope she calls back so I can ask her. Might even ask if there is a totally creepy or other named business bureaus?

Well, so much for writing about “nothing!”
