1. It’s absolutely beautiful this AM. A group of petite Latin fashion models are taking the train today. Oh, the weather’s not too bad either.

2. Whoops, sorry… I was standing on the wrong track. That’s what I get for starting the AM off with 3 screwdrivers.

3. A good marriage entails you be a motivational coach for your mate. This includes being sure they’re not motivated to kill you in your sleep.

4. I don’t know if I would kill for love. But I’d definitely use motivation tapes with subliminal messages to trick you into doing it for me.

5. I try to keep my mantras simple: Awaken. Consume. Persevere. Stop Being A Drone & Get The Fuck Off Your Ass And Make Something Creative.

6. It’s best to keep your mantras to yourself. This dude next to me keeps saying “a penitent man shall pass”. Hey, where’d this breeze come…

7. In lighter news, a Long Island BBQ restaurant is being fined for disturbing neighbors with an excessive odor that smells like smoked meats.

8. My wife and I once looked at a condo that was across from a Dunkin’ Donuts. My 400 lb alt reality self is pleased we didn’t like the place.

9. This morning’s SomBlock is sponsored by The Home Depot, because I have a list of items that I’ll be getting from them. Yes, all man stuff.
