So, a married couple, a recent widow and a divorced man go out for dinner…

No, that’s not the start of a joke. Those are my plans for the evening.
It’s a sad, little personal life, but it’s mine, all mine.

(An interesting side note, though there is a word for a divorced woman, namely divorcee, there is not, apparently, an equivalent term for a man. How odd.)

Coffee, with a punch!

Okay, not actually coffee, but a coffee mug.

In the same vein as T-Shirt For Tough Guys, a UK company is now offering a “Knuckle Duster Mug“. For those of you not familiar with the phrase, a “knuckle duster” is slang for brass knuckles. From what I understand, they’re quite nasty. Can’t say how well the coffee mug will stand up if you use it that way, though.

It’s the perfect thing for those of us who are thugish in the morning before we’ve had our coffee!
