  • 04/30/09 - Need a good laugh? Read on!

    These are GENUINE answers given by contestants on various quiz shows on radio and television in the UK. After my stint on "The Weakest Link", where I got to the final and answered "what boy's name, beginning with 'L', comes before 'Corporal' to give a rank in the British Army?" with "George?", I sh…
  • 08/23/08 - You have Two Cows...

  • 19th century haiku poets

    I love anachronism. I thought it would be funny to have people from the 19th century talk about a "quickie" (a quick sexual encounter) and a "kukai" (haiku meeting). The picture come from a royalty-free clipping book.
  • Whoville

    This post is inspired by the lovely @joiwinds and the most disagreeable @tendollars4ways. I thank you both for inspiring me.... Joiwinds wrote a post that introduced herself. I found it most enjoyable. Tendollars4ways wrote a post that I responded to and his response to me was most disheartening. An…
  • Chickened out

    I was roasting some chicken legs the other day. I usually pull the meat out and use the bones for stock. I saved most of the meat for my dad and my sister. This is what I usually do on Sundays. I try to make one meal and/or one soup (usually Chinese soups) for them. It saves both of us a bit of…
