Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for June 28, 2021

The after hours Sally Forth.

Always a delight in the summer.

Nothing like a breath of fresh air…

In Congress?

Don’t go outside! There’s a crossdresser.

Why a cross breeze?

cross as in using rough language. the act of being cross with someone. The term isn’t commonly used today but us older folks get it.

Some people write in cursive…. others speak in cursive.

I’m glad I can’t hear that breeze.

You should hear the crabgrass.

Those two-lips are whining again…

The sound of husband on the computer in the next room.

Back in my 20s, I was thrilled that this pretty girl went out with me. Then she opened her mouth and a true ‘cross breeze’ came out of her mouth! Ugh. I’m glad that I never got into swear words (at least until the computer was invented).

That looks more like an ill wind than a cross breeze.

And it is particularly foul today.

they must live ’cross town…
