Funny headline

Ok... this is not really that funny of a story... but the headline (as it reads right now) is...

"Ohio inmate says he's too fat for execution". Wonder if that would make it to Jay Leno's Headlines!! LOL!!

As I said ... the story is NOT funny!
btw... I found this on Yahoo Headlines under the NATIONAL news tab!!

What's even scarier... is that the photo they have is when the guy was at MANCI... which is the LOCAL prison!!! YIKES!!!!

Another trip to the vet

This time I went to get the meds for Sunny's rash. I came home & was actually able to give to with Peanut Butter... usually both her & Coleman will end up working it to the front of their mouth & spitting it out. Luckily not this time!

Also, they gave me medicated shampoo & some more of that "rinse". She has to be bathed 2 times a week with the shampoo... I don't know how I'm going to do this... because it's hard on the back!!

Today I put her in the kitchen sink (pictures to be posted later on their site!) & she was SO stiff legged that it was hard to get her underside... where she really needed it the most!

OH... & the directions said to leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes... Now, whoever wrote them directions must not have ever given a dog a bath... Because 9 times out of 10... at some point they will shake 1/2 way through the bath.

HOWEVER... Some how... some way... I kept Sunny from shaking during bath time... Though soon as I got her out & sat with her on the couch to dry her off... she shook & shook... So, I put her on the floor & started drying her & she had the mind to bury her head into the towel... & Then she tried to roll around to get that "clean" smell off... WHILE I WAS STILL TRYING TO DRY HER!!! LOL!! She is SOOOO silly!

Well, that's the ride for today! Have a great day!! :o)

For those who love the philosophy of ambiguity

1st things 1st... I am posting this in a blog so my dad will see it too!

2nd... the definition of ambiguity for those who may be wondering ...
(Found via Google)...
Ambiguity is the property of being ambiguous, where a word, term, notation, sign, symbol, phrase, sentence, or any other form used for communication, is called ambiguous... (Side note... That alone is hilarious!!)... Anyway what it really means is... if it can be interpreted in more than one way.

3rd... My mom doesn't usually email forward much ... but when she does... you can believe it's a doozie... & the following is NO exception!!! Thanks Mom... I laughed so hard that I'm still coughing!!  (FYI... That's a family thing... we laugh so hard we cry & then cough!! LOL!!)

The fly overs will just not be the same anymore... Our local Air National Guard is loosing there C130's... & will be replaced with C27J Spartan's...

The 179th Airlift Wing's new rides won't arrive until 2012 or 2013... so in the meantime they're will be flying C-21 Learjets.

See, what the problem is that at least once or twice a week we would hear the low rumble from 2 of the C130's fly over our house... I remember when they'd fly over the farm too.

Our next door neighbor, I believe, is a pilot... so, next time I see him, I'll have to see what he thinks of his new ride! (Hubby just told me that our neighbor will be retiring before all this takes place... I'll still talk to him about it... maybe! LOL)

Friday Five - Commercial Jingles from the Past

The list I did last week about movies... is from the Friday Five group... I joined & now I'll get to do more of these. It's a public group, if you want to join... click on their name that I've linked.

Here is this week's challenge...

Remember when you were a kid and those crafty marketers got all those jingles stuck in your head..."He's a honeycomb kid, givin' all he's got.." "If you believe in Peanut Butter Clap your hands..." Remember those? I noticed that today's commercials for kids and adults alike are all action, no jingles....Poor jingle writers sitting lonely in their Glendale homes obsessing over their great cereal campaigns. So...give us 5 of your favorite jingles that you remember growing up with!

1. Don't squeeze the Charmin.
2. Give it to Mikey, he will eat anything. He likes it... Mikey likes it! (Life Cereal).
3. They'rrrrrrrrrrrrrrre Great! (Kellogg's Frosted Flakes Cereal)
4. Plop, Plop, Fiz, Fiz... oh what a relief it is. (Alka-Seltzer)
5. Good to the last drop! (Maxwell House)

Those are the 1st 5 I could think of... what do you remember???
