		<description>No grumps allowed at the Pai Gow table sir.

Only children with mortgages and penchant for drinking themselves into level 24 stupidness.</description>

		<description>I have to say that the title was a bit misleading. There was no mention of George Clinton or Bootsy Collins. I expect more from a Funk ramble.</description>

		<description>Otis- it isn&#039;t you. The whole country is in a funk. Why? Because our president is trying to give away the farm before he&#039;s set out to pasture. 

I don&#039;t know about you, but having to work until I&#039;m seventy- five (to make up for this year&#039;s losses) can make anyone grumpy. 

Lot&#039;s of folks can&#039;t get excited about the holidays either because there won&#039;t be any holidays in the old sense of the word. Now, not only won&#039;t folks be able to afford it but also could get ridiculed for saying the word &quot;Christmas&quot; . 

See, you got me started.....

		<description>Grumpy. Curmudgeonly, even. I get that. 

Vegas in 3 weeks. Probably makes you grumpier given your noted aversion to Sin City, but I sure as hell hope it un-grumpifies me right quick.

		<description>You&#039;re the yin (or yang) to the yang (or yin) of those (sometimes annoying) people who are always cheery while standing knee deep in crap...

And, yeah, pffft - gray beard? Old? Can you make it up the stairs (sober) without having to drag your self up while your knees do a sad imitation of a breakfast cereal? Talk to me in a couple of decades. 

See. I understand grumpy, too.</description>

		<description>I was glad to see the last paragraph disclaimer.  Traveling the world because of one&#039;s pastime is not conducive to a lot of sympathy.  Hate yes; sympathy ... hardly.  Throw in the family and the hate grows.  

As to old?  Stop by and I&#039;ll explain old to you and drool on you a bit for added spice.</description>
