Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5.
I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

I've thought that one too

Shouldn't "good" and "food" be pronounced in similar fashions?
I'm a few months late with this but in some parts of the UK they are pronounced the same. 

Why does my window cleaner always come when it's raining?

What in the world creates a traffic "sunshine delay"?  Wear some sunglasses, put down your visor and don't tailgate the person in front of you.  That should take care of it.

Buying a whole new wardrobe from scratch isn't nearly as much fun as it looks on all those make-over shows.  But I'd probably enjoy it more if someone had given me a credit card with several thousand dollars on it, too.   :P

when you said you were buying a new wardrobe, at first I thought you meant an actual wardrobe, the wooden cupboard to keep clothes in.. I kinda need one of those

I often have very random thoughts and randomly think to myself that I should post these thoughts on the Random Thoughts board at ihd.com. 

Why do I always forget my random thoughts (which are genuinely amazingly random) before I get to post them? (< that's my random thought)

Why am I so envious of people with genuine spiritual faith but so taken with the mystery of the Universe in the same right? I love discovering how we came to be as organisms, but to think there might be a cheat sheet is a bit alarming.

Why do they never call you for jury duty when you actually have time to go? 


I got jury duty notice for this week, to be on call to report in for Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday.  Since I'm studying to be a paralegal, I thought it would be interesting to go.  Nope. I didn't have to report in for any of them. Apparently they don't call in anyone who actually wants to be there!

Not that I would have made it on a jury.  I'd have been excused as soon as they found out my two classes this semester are titled "Advanced Litigation" and "Access to Justice."   ;D

Why do they still make so many plastic combs, brushes and barrettes with mock-tortoise shell patterns?  No one wants a real one these days.

My daughter and I have morbid sense of humor sometimes. Posted off my Facebook Notes.

Have you ever glanced at something but what you read is not what it really says?
The first time I saw the name: "gothiclovemonkey" I thought it said "Garlic Clove Monkey"!   :rofl;

You two would probably love the show, "Dead Like Me". (One of my favorites! I have both seasons) It's about an 18 year old girl that gets hit by a toilet seat from the Russian Space Station. She then becomes a "reaper" Each episode has the most creative ways to kill people off that I have ever seen! Black humor. I wonder sometimes how did the writers think of these things!   :lol;

Probably sitting on the toilet while having a good crap.  That's where I get my best ideas. I think it's cuz you're alone with your own thoughts (and stink, depending on what you ate).  Unfortunately for me, by the time I'm finished, I've usually forgotten what I was thinking about.
