I learn something new every day...
I have finally put in a link to sign up for my newsletter, over there on the right. If you wish to be informed about upcoming releases and special discounts, feel free to subscribe. I promise not to give your information to Jezebel...
I too learn things most days. Sadly I usually wish I hadn't.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course I want your newsletter. And Jezebel. And Jezebel's delicious beverage.
Most lessons are the pits, EC. :)
DeleteThanks for signing up! Jezebel is always happy to lurk...uh, help you out. She's currently swimming in the punch. It's almost ready...
I signed up for the newsletter but am not sure the promised Voodoo doll with interchangeable heads is really on its way. All I got in response was an incoherent incantation that kept mentioning monkeys. Now please send me my bananas, whoa, I mean doll (wow, where did that come from...)
ReplyDeleteBananas, huh, Julie? How Freudian of you. Don't worry, Jezebel is putting the final ingredients into your Voodoo doll...what do you mean, you didn't want it to resemble yourself?
Delete*runs to stop Jez bef...*
I'll remember that. And I can think of other things that can rip off heads...
ReplyDeleteYes, the writer's wacky imagination is always at work, Alex! We come up with lists for everything. :)
DeleteNext we'll be reading signs on the road, "Propellers Ahead." Happy Friday to you.
ReplyDeleteHi, Lee! Or alligators... ;)
DeleteHappy Friday to you as well!
They rip off heads, too, I'm told. :-(
DeleteBoy, I'm certainly glad I'm not tall. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL, Loni! Now all you have to watch out for are those pesky sideways propellers if you're lying down. That is really weird that they mention heads - why not feet or legs?
DeleteHi RIver .. there are some ridiculous public signs aren't there .. and you think .. are they necessary! I saw one today for 'animals don't cross' - can they read? No-one had told me! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteHi Hilary! Those darn animals get smarter every day, don't they?
DeleteYou have a sign in England that bowled me over when I saw it on a trip. It said "Cats eyes removed." I don't know what we call them here - reflectors maybe? - but that sign cracked me up.
Other valuable things to know (where are the signs?): Guns leave gaping bullet holes in bodies. Knives sever male sex organs.
ReplyDeleteUmm...about the second one, Ron. Do you have intimate knowledge of that? If you ever need a friend to bring a shovel, I'm here for you...
DeleteYes, River, I have personal knowledge of that "second one." When my brother and I were growing up on our great-aunt's farm, we had to hold down the baby pigs while my father removed their testicles. He was a skilful (and fast!) surgeon. He used his pocket knife. We had to grind the emery wheel by hand when he sharpened it, which was often.
DeleteROFL! At least it wasn't the human variety. ;)
DeleteHa! I love it. Makes you wonder if people are idiotic enough to walk by a moving propeller if we shouldn't just let them. Darwinism at its finest!
ReplyDeleteExactly, Christine. I say forget the signs and weed out the gene pool!
DeleteHi River,
ReplyDeleteThought I'd spin over to your site. I can think of many rip-offs.
Great post! Thanks for sharing! *splat!*
A good weekend to you.
Gary :)
Punning around, Gary? Oh dear, I see you got too close. Well, now you don't have to worry about the letter S. It's for splat.
DeleteThanks for sharing! We'll do lunch. Have your people call my people.
Paws up!
