Thought for the Day!

Terrific, Sue.

HMMMMMM......so that only DOESN"T apply to Mike, huh?

Funny one Sue. Most of my friends would get a real chuckle out of that one.

OK, any man on here that gardens! How's that for saving face DP?!

It's OK Sue. I've got a very well developed sense of humor. You shouldn't be allowed to laugh at someone else unless you can laugh at yourself.


Hey honey. You know that trash can in the bathroom....I emptied it into the one in the kitchen, so you don't have to worry about that one, OK. It's alright, you don't have to thank me.

That's really ironic that you would post that, Sue...I remember my mom saying that very thing numerous times ! She said, "Every front door in the neighborhood should have a sign that says "Women at Work"(Remember, this was back when most women stayed home and were "housewives".)

DP pointed me to this thread. I'm far from a CA girl (in Illinois, actually); hope you don't mind if I lurk and laugh. I got a good chuckle out of reading through them all! Laughing is always a good thing!

Angie

You may only lurk for so long...then we demand you join in !

You mean I have to find something witty to say? Might be beyond my abilities. . .

...then plagiarize..,we'll never know !

Bookerc1,
Welcome! You don't have to be witty, you can borrow someone else's words. We do like to attribute them when possible, but hey, no one can remember everything. Like JD said! : - )
But this is what we've been playing with sort of, except me, I talk too much.

APHORISM: A SHORT, POINTED SENTENCE EXPRESSING A WISE OR CLEVER

Welcome IBookerc1,
If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, while dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons?
(Marie, we should start a thought provoking thread!!!)
I am enjoying each and everyone of these contributions!

What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

While where thinking about drivers licenses what do they due when someone has eyes that are each a different color?

I stole this from an e-mail going around these days:

"MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood."

Love that one GardenSox!!!

yes, good one about mapquest !

Yeah, especially when there's one way in/out of your street!

I like it when I turn the corner coming home and my GPS tells me I've arrived at my destination long before I reach my driveway. It's always nice to be welcomed home! ES has already requested one for Christmas that he can take from car to car. Any suggestions?
Marie, when I worked for the CDC, we put down bald, for hair color, and hazel for the oddly colored eyes, except we did have to note which eye was what color. That was for fingerprint cards though (I really hated typing out those fingerprint cards!). I'm not sure what the DMV does. I guess they do have the photo.
Absolutely, pirl, but isn't that an oxymoron? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxymoron
Fascinating definition.

Found this Arapaho proverb in a book the Librarian gave to me to keep!
Felt it was appropriate to share on this thread.

SW, re: GPS, DH got me a Magellan at CostCo that plugs in to the cigarette lighter, it was under $100 two years ago, probably less now. Or they don't make that model anymore. I've liked it just fine. And I'm sure you can still get them on eBay! I will check the model next time I am in my car (tomorrow when I go out for lunch).

~'spin!~
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. (Sorry if that is a repeat! I only started reading this just now.)

Thanks ~'spin!~, for the GPS suggestion. : - )
BTW, no one used the quote you sent yet, but we should have! LOL! : - )
Glad to see you here!

That is my DH's favorite slogan, only he says "more blessed" instead of easier... he was raised in a religious home, ha ha.

"Free gift".

Very unique.

How come abbreviated is such a long word?

good one, Marie !

Why is a PAYING patron of a hotel called a "guest" ???

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Sue and Mike those both were great!!

Why do most irons have a setting for permanent press?

ROFL! That one hits home, Ima!

Why do they sell glue for "pre-pasted" wallpaper ???

If a store is open 24 hours, why are there locks on the door?
