Ponderisms

This comes from an email from one of my many sisters. Some are just toooo funny!!!

PONDERISMS

1.) I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

2.) Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

3.) The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

4.) Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

5.) There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead.

6.) Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

7.) Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

8.) The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.

9.) Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

10.) Have you noticed since everyone has a camcorder these days no one talks about seeing UFOs like they used to?

11.) Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.

12.) All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

13.) In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

14.) Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.

15.) How is it that one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?

16.) Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer?

17.) If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about him?

18.) If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?

19.) If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby
oil made from?

20.) Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?

21.) Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

22.) Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster?

Weekenders!!!

It's that time again. For Michele's weekend Meet-n-Greet. Some frown, but others gleefully play. Here's a question for all who visit here, whether on your own or from Michele's: Last night during a prayer meeting, I had a memory flash through my mind. More like the shadow of the memory. I was five years old or younger and I was begging my father for a peanut butter cake. I really wanted one, and even though I was interupting the adult conversation and probably being a regular brat...my Dad quit what he was doing to search for a recipe for a peanut butter cake...uhm, I don't think he ever found one so he made me a chocolate one with peanut butter frosting. This is probably the best memory I have of my father. So - what is your favorite childhood memory?????

Shock and Awe

It is a strange thing. How someone can say, "I'm sorry, please forgive me" and still manage to correct you all at once...it is truly amazing to me. I was shocked that this person actually admitted to being wrong, and at the same time, I was ashamed for wanting it. But it got me to thinking. About Repentance and Forgiveness...how once they have happened...there is healing and restoration. I haven't completely researched it yet, but the verses I've peaked at in James make me think I'm not far off. I wonder, just as one person sinning can spoil others...can one person repenting turn others to repentance? Hmm.... Of course, as in any relationship situation...it helps to know the whole story. Why do we do that, I wonder? Close up and not share what is going on, I mean. I know that sometimes, there are things that hurt too deep to share right away. It is frustrating. Thanksgiving looks to be a dismal day so far. I'm not about ready to invite myself to any...

My Brother's Question and Answer Segment

As you all know from yesterday's post and comments, my brother slammed me on a few of my survey answers. I've left his questions/comments in black and my answers in blue. Letter: Q Now, I wonder why you would like the letter Q. I wonder what Jean-Luc REALLY thinks about that? Uhm---it's the only Star Trek related letter. :P Any comment Jean-Luc?? Body Part on Opposite sex: smile Age you wanna lose your Virginity: How old am I now? LOL Can these two answers really correspond? It sounds to me like you might be lying in one of these. What???? Sex doesn't start with a smile? Besides....you should see his smile. Strawberry or Watermelon: watermelon What! Watermelon! You...You... TRAITOR! :P Kiss or Hug: both Now, this answer seems to correspond well with both your answers in the above mentioned two questions. And your point is? Rap or Punk: rap You really like rap? Uhm...I think TobyMac counts as rap and I like a few of his songs. I also like hiphop. Wanna see me dance with ...
