Looking back over the month of September, I'm having a hard time picking my favorite Banter Bites.

You were a straight-A student, maybe you should just grade them.

Every month I hope that things will get better, whether in terms of the coronavirus, the presidential election, severe weather, the list seems endless. Unfortunately, it just seemed that in September things continued to get worse so I needed positive thoughts and inspiration. Which is probably why these are my favorite Banter Bites this month:

September 1: There Was A Stutter. There Was Eloquence – A brave young man showed us what true strength and character looks like.
September 5: Life, Lists, & Arcade Games – In the midst of craziness, my sister, Black, can always find a way to make me laugh.
September 15: Don't Believe People Who Tell You To Exercise – Sometimes a negative situation can lead to something positive.

Curious about Black's favorites this month?

Wishing You A Merry Little Christmas

No matter what holiday you may celebrate, Red can’t help but quote a line from one of her favorite Christmas songs, “Have yourself a merry little Christmas. Let your heart be light. From now on, your troubles will be out of sight.”

And Black can’t help but point out that the song wasn’t introduced in a Christmas movie but in the movie "Meet Me In St. Louis."

Wishing you a merry everything and a happy always!

It's Summer, So ... Fall In Love … With Corn?

This is one of Red’s favorite Banter Bites in large part because of Black’s “corny” puns, but also because fresh corn is a summer staple – whether cooked on the grill or in the microwave, whether eaten on its own or as a primary ingredient in refreshing summer salads …

This may be one of the corniest things you’ll ever read.

BANTER BITE BACKSTORY: It’s just a vegetable, so how can it possibly elicit such a strong reaction from Red, while, for Black, it’s more a source of amusement and even, it turns out, admiration?

Is Artificial Intelligence An Intelligent Idea?

Think you can avoid artificial intelligence? Think again …

BANTER BITE BACKSTORY: Red already fights technology at every turn, preferring to keep her ostrich head in the sand, plus, she finds Artificial Intelligence (AI) scary; whereas Black knows ignoring reality merely postpones the inevitable, so she’s started playing with AI to understand it better …
