Whacky's Corner

Every February 2nd that poor little groundhog Punxsutawney Phill is rudely awakened and snatched from his home to predict the weather. The problem is, that the poor little guy never sees his shadow. - If you look closely you will notice his eyes are partly closed...he is still asleep! Or maybe he is afraid to open his eyes because of the crowd. I would be...scared that is. - I wouldn't blame poor ol Punxsutawney Phill if he were to try to bite that old bully who yanks him out of bed each Feb. 2.... Sign in to see full entry.

It was supposed to snow! Most people think it didn't snow. Well I know it did. I saw it! Both snowflakes...there might have been a third, but I'm not really sure. - You see Bo, my dog, talked me into taking him for a walk...or did he take me? Anyway just as we started out I saw the snowflakes flying. I tried to convince Bo to turn back but he wouldn't do it. - He dragged me halfway down the block before I caught my breath. By then he was running out of steam, a little. Good thing too. I was... Sign in to see full entry.

I did some spring cleaning today. I found one whole dollar in change around the house. Some in the laundry room, some in the furniture, and even some on the kitchen cabinet. Do you know the best place to look for money? I bet you said the furniture. Wrong! - The best place, in my house, to find money is (drum roll please) the laundry hamper. I found a ten dollar bill there once. Of course everyone I asked claimed it was theirs. Even one person who doesn't even live here said it was his. I know,... Sign in to see full entry.

I am not really worried that someone will listen in on my phone conversations. If they do, I'll know. You see after only a few minutes I'll hear them snoring. - As a matter of fact we have toyed with the idea of selling recording of our conversations as sleep aids. We'd never get FDA approval, they'd fall asleep before they could OK it. - Darn another million dollar idea down the drain. - What do we talk about that is so sleep inducing? See I even used another term for boring. - So what DO we... Sign in to see full entry.

WHEN... >>> You answer the door before people knock. Juan Valdez named his donkey after you. You ski uphill. You get a speeding ticket even when you're parked. You speed walk in your sleep. You haven't blinked since the last lunar eclipse. You just completed another sweater and you don't know how to knit. You grind your coffee beans in your mouth. You sleep with your eyes open. You have to watch videos in fast-forward. The only time you're standing still is during an earthquake. You lick your... Sign in to see full entry.

Triskai ahhh uhmm triskaidec errr triskaidek oh well, it is the fear of number thirteen and is kind of doubled on Friday. - Well, today is Friday the thirteenth, while everyone is cowering under their bed, I am cowering right here in front of my webtv. So there! - I have actually been out of the house once today. I'm brave! Gulp... I scampered out and got the newspaper. When the mail comes I may even reach out the door and get it. Did you know that the mail man (postal person?) doesn't have to... Sign in to see full entry.

I just brought some eggs home from the grocery store. The box says that they are JUMBO eggs. I opened them up and put them in the egg compartment of my refrigerator and I swear that I've seen bigger eggs fall out of the robin's nest out back. What are they doing to those poor chickens to get them to lay such small eggs? - When I would collect eggs for my grandma, she would feed the hens, while I snuck into the chicken coop to get the eggs. If you reach under the hen for the eggs sometimes she... Sign in to see full entry.

Do you ever think of something to say, then when you start to say it, your brain goes blank and you come across sounding like a perfect idiot? Well, nobody is perfect, but isn't it awful when that happens? I've discovered a way to get around looking like a fool. - What you have to do is: "shut up!' Your brain shut down for some reason so your best bet is to shut your mouth. Most of the problems of the world come about because someone's brain shut down and their mouth didn't. - It is bad enough... Sign in to see full entry.

Ka! Boop! The sound of the furnace kicking on woke me. My first thought was that I had forgotten to turn the heat down. I looked at the clock, 4 AM! It was then I realized I was really cold! - As a matter of fact my nose was so cold there was an ice cycle beginning to form on it. I got up to check the heat and noticed that even my bunny slippers were shivering. - I checked the thermostat and it was where I put it most nights 63 degrees. Funny in the summer with the sun shining down 63 is warm or... Sign in to see full entry.
