OverHeard OverSeen OverRead

The occasional overheard remark is like a story untold.  Taken out of context - and placed into a context all its own -- one can imagine whole adventures, distinctive people, heretofore unseen places.  The following are a miscellaney of comments I've noted online.

It’s like I’m finally growing up!
But not really
because I still feel 
 like a 16 year old.
I am going to hang on to that for
as long as I can though.
Not those crappy 16 year olds
that drive like crap and thinks it’s cool
to cuss loudly in public.
One of the cool ones
that likes to play games
and stay up really late.
Yes.
One of the good ones

I doubt that the imagination can be suppressed.
If you truly eradicated it in a child,
he would grow up to be an eggplant.
