Well Dang,,, I almost forgot I had one of these here things to dicker with!
Time to get back to the old grind...Churning out witty blog after witty blog...
Cleaver little thang that I am. That's what happens when you step away
from the blog for a day or two...You just start writing the first thing that pops
into your head because you really don't have anything of substance to
actually write about.
Actually I do have something to write about. It's not controversial, but
it sure is interesting. But first....I want to tell you a joke.
Here it is:
Can you guess which of the following are true and which are false?
1. Apples, not caffeine, are more efficient at waking you up in the morning.
2. Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a belly button.
3. A pack-a-day smoker will lose approximately 2 teeth every 10 years.
4. People do not get sick from cold weather; it's from being indoors a lot more.
5. When you sneeze, all bodily functions stop, even your heart!
6. Only 7 per cent of the population are lefties.
7. Forty people are sent to the hospital for dog bites every minute.
8. Babies are born without kneecaps. They don't appear until they are 2-6 years old.
9. The average person over 50 will have spent 5 years waiting in lines.
10. The toothbrush was invented in 1498.
11. The average housefly lives for one month.
12. 40,000 Americans are injured by toilets each year.
13. A coat hanger is 44 inches long when straightened.
14. The average computer user blinks 7 times a minute.
15. Your feet are bigger in the afternoon than any other time of day.
16. Most of us have eaten a spider in our sleep.
17. The REAL reason ostriches stick their head in the sand is to search for water.
18. The only two animals that can see behind themselves without turning
their heads are the rabbit and the parrot.
19. John Travolta turned down the starring roles in "An Officer and a
Gentleman" and "Tootsie."
20. Michael Jackson owns the rights to the South Carolina State anthem.
21. In most television commercials advertising milk, a mixture of white
paint and a little thinner is used in place of the milk.
22. Prince Charles and Prince William NEVER travel on the same airplane, just in case there is a crash.
23. The first Harley Davidson motorcycle built in 1903 used a tomato can for a carburetor.
24. Most hospitals make money by selling the umbilical cords cut from women who give birth.
They are used in vein transplant surgery.
25. Humphrey Bogart was related to Princess Diana. They were 7th cousins.
26. If coloring weren't added to Coca-Cola, it would be green.
They are all true.
Now go back and think about #16.

Well, Jenn was practicing her trumpet this afternoon after school....What can one
say about listening to the sounds of Brass?? She's really getting serious about
it though, especially with her trip to Ottawa coming up, so it was music to my ears
anyway...but those high notes need some work!
OK...now the contestt...We now have our first week of February in and NO SNOW!
3 weeks left. Have y'all got your guesses in yet? I may wait for the last minute to
decide what the prize will be...Don't get your hopes up though...I don't have any
major sponsors for an Alaskan Cruise or anything like that. BUT...I might be able
to get my hands on an old postcard of Alaska's national bird...the mosquito...
IF I'm lucky, that is!
I've gotta take a break for a minute or two...I'll post this and then come back later to
finish it off. If I remember. If I don't fall alseep first. If I need to get up in the middle of
the night for a pee.

catch ya on the flip side all my militant blog fans.
