  Topic:  Priceless:

  Like the commercial

  Or Not.

  Priceless?  Without price?  I am usually not cynical, but everything has a price when you think about it.

  When a kid does something really cute, we say it was priceless.   Or if something is really funny.

  Well, WE don't really say that, because I don't think I use that expression.  But some do.  It is probably used more after the commercials.  You know the ones I mean.
  

  My children are priceless by the definition we are all thinking of.  But without price, not so much.  As a matter of fact, they are pretty expensive, although worth it.

  Since it's Fathers Day I should probably say something like, spending time with Dad is priceless, but I hate cliche's in blogs, they are so cliche.  Okay, that's not exactly cliche, but close enough.

  Back to the original topic, priceless.  Obviously it means something is so great you can't put a price on it.  Like a baby's smile, or spending time with dear old dad,   You know, all the mushy stuff.  Or it can mean you just heard the funniest thing ever.  This would probably occur in a comedy club though, and the drinks they force you to buy are definitely not priceless.

  Mastercard has a priceless.com.  I know this because I googled priceless.  You can submit what is priceless to you.  Some of the picks look pretty expensive to me, like riding the waves in paradise.  Well you would have to either live in paradise, which is most likely expensive, or you would have to be able to travel to paradise, which I know is expensive.  That's why I live in non -paradise suburbia and don't travel to paradise. 

  So there you have it, priceless.  For other priceless entries ( hey is that a double entendre?) go here

   

  Happy Dads Day.  You know who you are.
