    Kidnapping is stealing a person, dognapping is stealing a dog, but catnapping is sleeping.

    Tuna fish is unique in its naming. We don't say "chicken bird", "beef cow", "pork pig", or even "salmon fish".

    My son 3 born 2014= 2017

    Other son 9 born 2008=2017

    Clans of long ago that wanted to get rid of their unwanted people without killing them used to burn their houses down - hence the expression To get fired.

    I have seen this or similar things posted like it is something new, some of them even claim that it wont happen again for 1000 years when in face it wont happen again, ever.

    This year is the only year that birth year + age = 2017, next year it will = 2018 etc

    But every year is the same. What is said is the equivalent of saying water is wet or fire is hot :tongue:

    The saying was orignally (and still should be though most people say it wrong) is "You've got another THINK coming" as apposed to "You've got another THING coming".

    I didn't believe you so I googled it. looks like you are correct.

    "If that's what you think, you've got another think coming"
