Where did the term Piss Poor come from? They used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot & then once a day it was taken & Sold to the tannery.......if you had to do this to survive you were "Piss Poor" But worse than that were the really poor folk who couldn't even afford to buy a pot......they "didn't have a pot to piss in" & were the lowest of the low The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it,...

This charlatan Terry Jones, the idiot who has threatened to burn several hundred copies of the Muslim holy book, ( I won’t even attempt to spell or sketch the title ) is beneath everyone’s contempt. He is purposely throwing gasoline on a huge fire, just to be able to glory in the focused heat and light of worldwide attention. He doesn’t care how many innocent lives will be lost because of his blatant hubris. He doesn’t care about the outrage that he already has, and fully intends to further... Sign in to see full entry.

Here are a few irritating things that people do, without even realizing that they are close to driving me crazy, and although I really ought to mention them aloud, being a well-controlled, serene sage, I just sit quietly, slowly grinding my teeth together. Do you also have a designated sugar spoon? Of COURSE you do! One that when properly scraped level, or shaken just right, gives you EXACTLY the right amount of sweetness, in your morning coffee mug? Of COURSE you do! I say "coffee mug," instead... Sign in to see full entry.

There apparently are times when honesty, might NOT actually be the best policy! Especially when the big, strong, muscular person, the one wearing the pants in the family, isn't the MAN! Oooh, I pity the fool! Guy Heard on the Walmart PA system: " Cleanup on aisle 25, we have a husband down." A husband and wife are shopping in their local Wal-Mart. The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in their cart. "Just what do you think you're doing?" asks the wife. "They're on sale, only $10... Sign in to see full entry.

I truly don't know if it was my boss or LBJ, Strat, Sam444, or another blogger friend who sent me this. I loved it anyway, and in case you haven't already seen it, I hope that you'll enjoy reading it, too. If it was YOU that sent me this, THANKS! Guy Alt Text: How Neanderthal Are You? Take This Quiz to Find Out By Lore Sjöberg May 13, 2010 | 7:49 pm | Categories: Current Affairs Two interesting bits of genetics news sauntered down the interpike this week.

All romances, however blessed they may appear to be, to those involved or observing, face obstacles, and living “happily ever after,” is not always or even usually the norm. This is true, regardless of what the fairy tales claim. As the old saying goes, “You have to kiss an awful lot of frogs, before you’ll find your prince.” The following story illustrates my contention that this is a sad fact of life. SIGH! An elderly couple of widowed residents met in their nursing home’s communal private... Sign in to see full entry.

First off, let me make this perfectly clear, these are my own personal thoughts, and should not be taken as advice, or an ill-advised attempt to influence anyone else's spiritual values or beliefs. We each must decide what WE personally believe, and then live out our lives, accordingly. This is only a feeble attempt to humorously examine one facet of one life, my own. Might as well try to inflict a smile on a few faces while I still can, because "Ain't NOBODY gettin' outa here, ALIVE!" A... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey everybody, after having survived the hottest June, in all of North America's recorded history, and if your area is like ours, much of the rest of this summer feels as though it will also break records for unrelenting stretches of Saharan heat, and tropical jungle humidity. Therefore, I thought that you might enjoy reading about much, much cooler weather, of a couple of years ago. I am writing this as I sweatily swelter, practically at the stroke of midnight, while it is still too hot to... Sign in to see full entry.

Why do Sharks swim in circles around you, before attacking? Two great white sharks, swimming in the Pacific Ocean, spied the survivors of a cruise ship, that had struck a reef and sunk. "Follow me, son." the father shark said to the son shark, and they swam over to the mass of bobbing survivors from the ship. "First we swim around them a few times with only the tips of our fins showing." And then the sharks did. "Well done, son! Now we swim around them a few more times, with all of our fin...

Angus McGregor This Scottish farmer walks into the neighbourhood pub, and orders a whiskey. "Ye see that fence over there?" he says to the bartender. "Ah built it with me own two hands! Dug all the holes with me shovel, chopped doon the trees for the posts by me ownself, split an' laid every last rail! But do they call me 'Angus the Fence-Builder?' Nooooo!"...... He gulps down the whiskey and orders another. "Ye see that pier on the loch?" He continues, "Ah built it me ownself, too. Swam oot... Sign in to see full entry.
