    Oh yeah Diane, I know that feeling all too well! Why can't they keep their insides inside.

    It is so hot here already (7:55) that the ice in my iced coffee melted before I was across the road

    When I was a kid my dad had this funny little saying, a non-sensical riddle:

    "If a half a hen lays a half an egg in a half a day - how long would it take a monkey with a wooden leg to kick the seeds out of a dill pickle?"

    That crosses my mind just about daily. I'm 42 years old. My dad's been gone 10 years. Legacies are strange and complicated things...

    First, the part about the 1.5 chickens laying 1.5 eggs in 1.5 days: The rate at which any single chicken or groups of chickens can lay eggs has no bearing whatsoever on the kicking ability of peg-legged monkeys. They are not even of the same species of animals. This part of the question exists entirely as a ruse to distract the audience. Unless you're trying to determine the total area of the field the blue tractor supposedly plowed, you may ignore this chicken data.

    The specific answer we seek is the total duration of time it would take a monkey with a wooden leg to kick the seeds from the dill pickle. The difficulty in resolving this problem lies within the fact that various pickles, dill or not, contain a varying amount of seeds. Furthermore, the size, strength and ability of a single-legged monkey can vary greatly. Therefore, without more specific parameters the question is impossible to answer.

    My father passed about 5 years ago. Previous to that he had to go into the hospital for openheart surgery. Two days after the surgery, I got a letter from him. He didn't think he was going to make it. All my siblings got one as well. I was cleaning out a drawer the other day and found it. I hope I can be half the Dad to my girls as he was to us.
    Further more, I'd have to question whether the monkey actually did indeed kick the seeds out of the dill pickle. Most monkeys don't actually kick, rather they grasp and toss... Could have been a trick question. :ohwell:

    Why does the other woman I work with think that when she blows her nose and it sounds painful tell me that she has a musical soul?

    It's so hot,

    I saw squirrels fanning their nuts.

    Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them
    from laying hard boiled eggs.

    the cows are giving evaporated milk.

    the trees are whistlin' for the dogs.

    Satan decided to take the day off.

    Even the sun was looking for some shade!

    the birds had to pick up the worms with potholders.

    I saw a dog chasing a cat and they were both walkin'..

    It was soooooo hot today that.....

    You've experienced condensation on your butt from the hot

    water in the toilet bowl.

    Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked

    out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

    I saw a bunch of winos passing around a Dilly Bar!

    Hot water now comes out of both taps.

    It was so hot today I saw a funeral procession pull into a Dairy Queen.:happy:

    No one has had any random thoughts since Friday? :noway: I think it's good to turn our brains off once in a while, but..... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:


    Is our country doomed? I think of the obesity epidemic and I really feel like there isn't much hope for the majority population unless the government steps in.

    Cheesecake would be an exception of course, I LOVE cheesecake!!!

    But maybe they could be forced to offer smaller portions of the cheesecake so we can try all their flavors and it will only be 1/4 as bad for us :bigsmile:

    Has anyone tried the new orange cauliflower? I saw it at the supermarket this weekend and HAD to try it. What a disappointment, it tastes like cauliflower. I was hoping for Nacho cheese.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: - love it.

    Why is the last cherry I have to eat always the only one of the bunch that is sour??? I'd really rather end on a sweet note.

    Same thing with those danged baby carrots... one bitter one and the bag is done.

    Oh, and I don't know about orange cauliflower, but DH bought "broccoliflower" at the store a few weeks ago... bless his heart, I said to get some broccoli and he came home with that (he doesn't normally shop). I said "that's not broccoli" and we argued about it, until I found the receipt....... :laugh: :laugh: Tastes like cauliflower :laugh:

    If I workout at 2:30 and go lay around in the bed and watch TV, read, whatever around 4:00...does that counter the exercise I did? It just feels counter-productive...:ohwell:

    An apple, not apple pie? Who cares how many apples you eat? Can you tell him to bug off or would that be insubordination?

    Sometimes I think of things and I would like to post my random thoughts here. Feel free to do the same.

    Okay. So today, while walking to the gym, I noticed that the street didn't smell very good - kind of like if someone was drinking urine, suddenly realised it, vomited and then tried to clean it up with a rotting fish they happened to have in their pocket. I thought to myself, I wish it would rain and you know what? IT RAINED. I made it rain. Then I thought to myself again, only this time the thought was what if everyone only gets one wish that comes true and instead of wishing for a pet giraffe or money to buy a pet giraffe or something equally cool, I wasted my wish on stupid rain? Then, I realised that there is no way that kind of power would ever be left in my hands by what or who is in charge of that sort of thing, and I felt better. I'll sleep tonight!

    Just came across this and gave me a giggle...thanks! I would love a pet giraffee....lol

    I think I'd have to strangle that guy...that's really annoying! I had someone do that to me at work when I cut into a cupcake and ate 1/2-and that's obviously worse than an apple-WTF man! I showed restraint, now leave me alone ;)
