Thanks for sharing, Clint!

Is that a fairly loose or a tight term? Are we talking Facebook or something else... Ha ha ha

I received an email recently about horrible places to stay on vacation. Their teasers are posted further below, but I wanted to chime in with a story of my own. Some friends and I took a trip to St. George several years ago for a weekend getaway. The details are a little hazy--and, no, we were not partaking of any substances that would impair memory. Age does a fine job on it's own. Thank you very much. We had a coupon for a discounted room rate at a certain hotel, which should have been our first clue to stay away--stay far, far, FAR away. I remember vague feelings of foreboding as we walked to our room, being a little nervous about us single girls staying there. We should have listened. The second clue was that the pool was disgusting. The third clue was that, when we called the front desk about the fire alarm beeping for a new battery, they removed the battery and replaced the cover. The fourth clue was that one of the beds broke when we sat on it. At this point we were still la...

A colleague from work sent this picture of an emergency department sign around the office. I'm not sure if it is doctored (pun intended) or not. Either way it's pretty hilarious.

(Thanks, Pam, for sharing a laugh...) 1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and point a Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down. 2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don't Disguise Your Voice! 3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, ask If They Want Fries with that. 4. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks . Once Everyone has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch to Espresso. 5. In the Memo Field Of All Your Checks, Write ' For Marijuana. 6. Skip down the hall Rather Than Walk and see how many looks you get. 7. Order a Diet Water whenever you go out to eat, with a serious face. 8. Specify That Your Drive-through Order Is 'To Go'. 9. Sing Along At The Opera. 10. Five Days In Advance, Tell Your Friends You Can't Attend Their Party Because You have a headache. 11. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream 'I Won! I Won!' 12. When Leaving the Zoo, Start Running towards the Parking lot, Yelling 'Run For Your L...

A friend and I have been training for a sprint over the past week or two. On Monday in the gym's swimming pool area , we spied this sign. (Thanks Linda for sharing your picture.) Notice anything odd? Instructions to call 911 in case there is a problem. Phone jack. No phone. Anyone know of a waterproof phone you can carry with you when you swim? At the same gym, the restroom sign below was on a stall door inside the women's locker room. How exactly does that work? The sign to come into the locker room says women only, but one of the restroom stalls will accept men...

A friend sent this to me and I couldn't resist sharing it. Thanks, Marie. I was packing for a business trip while my three-year-old daughter had a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point she exclaimed, "Daddy, look at this", and stuck out two tiny fingers toward me. Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out, stuck her fingers in my mouth, pretending to eat them, and said, "Daddy's gonna eat your fingers". I went back to packing, but looked up shortly to see my daughter standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face. "What's wrong, honey?" I asked. She replied, "What happened to my booger?"

It's a Brand New Day with Dr. Horrible and Captain Hammer .

Whoever said corporate America was dull? Someone at Nestle's sure has a great sense of humor! A friend told me about Nestle's "funner" automatic message system. It even offers a cure for cooties - and I had to try it. Dial 1-800-295-0051. Wait until after the automatic operator says to press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish. Don't dial anything. Don't say anything. Then you will will be asked to push 3 for nutrition information and the asterisk for Pig Latin. Press 4 to access the "funner" menu. Press 7 to find the long sought cure for cooties. Pressing 4 to access the "funner" menu and then pressing 1 will tell knock, knock jokes! What a way to brighten someone's day. Thanks Nestle!

So I've posted several funny passages from a new blog I'm following called My Life Is Average or MLIA for short. It is full of random short stories from people's lives that are ironic, silly, amazing or anything BUT average. Sometimes they make me laugh so hard I cry--so far no hyperventilating. Here is a recent find: Today, I was driving down a road in the middle of nowhere when a car passed me. On the back windshield it said, "Leapfrog?". I passed them, and they passed me again. This continued for about ten minutes until I turned off. As I was turning, the two guys in the car cheered me on. Thanks guys, you just made my life. MLIA

This one brought tears to my eyes. Love it! Recently, my little sister, who is a huge Harry Potter fan, turned 11. Out of boredom, I decided to make her a Hogwarts acceptance letter. I made sure to use official looking paper, and I quoted the letter and the supply list directly from the book. As a final touch, I collected a few feathers and laid them, along with the letter, beside her open window. When she found it, she was screaming the rest of the day. I told my Mom, and she told me to fix it. Today, I left her another letter, telling her that there had been a mistake and that officials would arrive soon to erase her memory. She is now hiding under her bed screaming that she won't let them get her whenever anyone knocks on the door. MLIA

New found love in MLIA : Last night some friends and I went to Toys R Us at midnight with about a thousand other eager Black Friday shoppers. Except we weren't there to shop. We were dressed as Spartans, and we walked up and down the line, and shouted out a speech encouraging our fellow warriors to stay strong and take heart in the upcoming battle for their children's happiness. MLIA Sure wish I would have heard about this sooner. It would have been awesome to try.
