Brian and i planned to go to Borders earlier this evening. he wanted to buy a journal, and we were going to hang out in the caf? awhile. we never got around to it because while i lay on the couch reading, Angelo gave me a lap dance just like this one: Lap Dance.
i found this in Reaz’s Mind
1. Why does Santa bring presents?
Santa brings presents because it’s his job.
2. Why isn’t rooves the plural of roof?
actually, "rooves" is the plural for "roof." however, after the Pilgrims migrated to the Americas, the plural form "roofs" came into use in defiance of King’s English.
3. Why do too many cooks spoil the broth? Would too many accountants also spoil the broth? And if so, how many accountants is too many?
they say that too many cooks spoil the broth because there are many variations of the same recipe. if these variations, however slight, are all incorporated into the broth, the end result would taste terrible. too many different overpower the subtle nuances of each one and complicate what, by the very nature of broth, should be a simple flavor.
too many accountants would spoil the broth as well, and it only takes one accountant to do so. broth, after all, is not an accountant’s specialty.
4. In American football, why does the center have to snap the ball to the quarterback? Why doesn’t the quarterback just start with the ball?
if the quarterback were to start the game with the ball, there would be fewer chances of committing a penalty, which denies spectators the privilege of seeing pretty yellow flags float to the ground.
5. Compare and contrast the food turkey with the country Turkey.
turkey the animal (or the dish) differs from Turkey the country because the former is mobile (hey–even a cooked turkey can be moved, with assistance); whereas, the latter is stationary. note that the word used to describe turkey is the adjective "mobile," not the proper noun "Mobile." also, "stationary" should not be confused with "stationery." similarly, "turkey" and "Turkey" are alike in pronunciation but differ in spelling.
this week’s featured site is The Story of Why. “Gladys Cortez” is a Chicago resident living on the West Siiiiiide!!! she describes her blog thus–that’s right, thus:
In defense of the unusual. This blog is being created to chronicle my reasons for many of the choices I’m making in my life; though this is one of those extremely-personal things, I suspect that more than one person has found himself/herself in the same situation I’m in, for different reasons.
read what the Chicago Tribune‘s very own Eric Zorn has to say about Gladys’s blog (see link below).
yay, Gladys! the link to her blog is also under “Neighborhood Watch” in the righthand sidebar.
…is Link2Blogs.com. if you look on the lefthand sidebar under "Ad Campaigns" you’ll see a text box containing 5 links to other blogs. one of them could be yours!
this works on a 2:1 impression ratio. for every 2 impressions on your blog for someone’s link, you get 1 impression of your link on someone else’s blog. as soon as you paste the code onto your page, it begins right away. i have yet to receive clicks, but i sure have a lot of impressions.
are you impressed? sign up! besides, it’s free.
they have added a chimney! just in time for Santa if they finish the house before Christmas.
they’re building some kind of…something, which extends from the rear of the house. a roof deck, maybe? it’ll obstruct my view of The Drug Dealer’s backyard, and that’s probably just as well. i only hope that it doesn’t block out the sun.
