I bumped into an old friend on the net. She taught geometry and trigonometry in high school.  Of course, she has retired. She says she is doing fine but having some problems dealing with the after math.

I want to be 15 again …so I can ruin my life differently.

If you are in a difficult situation and one door closes while another door opens  … your house is probably haunted.

Years ago, when we were married, my wife and I were to spend our honeymoon at an old grand hotel overlooking the Ohio River called “The Fiddler”.  It turned out to be a vile inn.

I want to be 15 again …so I can ruin my life differently.

Stumbled on an old cook book about cooking with fowl. Today I made a Tern for the Wurst.

Two silk worms decided to have a race.

They ended up in a tie.

My girlfriend asked me to take the spider out instead of killing it. So I did. We had drinks. He's a nice guy, works in web development.

A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Mirriam-Webster's Thesaurus spilled it's cargo leaving Toronto heading down the 401.

Witnesses were stunned, startled aghast, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, surprised, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, confounded, astonished, and numbed.

Just shows how important it is to go with the old stand-by cultural icons. I bought a thesaurus that was generated by an AI. I'm pretty disappointed- not only did it suck, but it kinda sucked.

When I went to get the mail, I saw that the neighbor kid took the time to build a snowman and carve a 6 pack into it.  He explained to me that it was an abdominal snowman.

I ran a marathon in Sweden.
I knew I was lost when I crossed the Finnish line.

“Now, I’m just rooting for them!”

Boy: Mom! I can't find my other shoe!

Mom: Well, it didn't grow legs and walk away, keep looking.

Boy: I can't find the toothpaste.

Mom: Toothpaste can't just grow legs and walk away, look a little harder.

Boy: My remote control car is gone!

Mom: It has to be somewhere, it didn't just grow legs and walk away.

Boy: Mom! I can't find my tadpole!

This morning some clown held the door for me.

I thought "That's a nice jester!"

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

My buddy just got kicked out of his house. His wife was hinting at Valentine’s Day plans and asked him if he knew her favorite flower. “Gold Medal All Purpose” apparently wasn’t the answer.

Day by day events on our farm can be turned into some cartoons
(sorry if I posted some here already but I cannot find them back)

7 Stray dogs adapted and what ever came on our farm and stayed forever.
Rod Steward (his hair style gave him the name) was even brought about 20 Kilometers away because he is a loose cannon, but only two days later he was back at his favorite spot
seven.jpg
our Scallywagg Name: 7 from eleven. Former stray dog and now the center of chaos on the farm.

Rod Steward the cattle heron. Our lake is so full of shrimps that he lost all fear and claims his part of the farm

In modern times the only right way forward is to come back to nature.

When one door closes, another door opens...

Other than that, it's a pretty good car!
