Lame Jokes

A man went down to the pet shop, and asked to buy a pet that was very smart, and could do chores for him. The pet shop owner showed him a centipede and told the man it could talk and do anything he asked. The owner demonstrated. "Go and get my jacket." She told the centipede. So the centipede said "Yes, ma'am," went and got the jacket and gave it to her. The man was impressed, and bought the centipede. At the house, the centipede was as helpful as ever, making the bed, and sweeping the floor just as his master asked. One morning, the man said "Centipede, go outside and fetch the newspaper, please." "Okay." The centipede replied. So the man waited... and waited. Two hours later, the centipede came back with the paper. "What took you so long?!" The man asked. "Sorry, sir," the centipede replied "I had to put my shoes on first."

Weird But True

Recently I heard about something very strange, yet cool that many people believe. Here's the story: A long time ago, the vikings started traveling north, and dissapeared. No one knows what became of them. They were never found... until now. People have reported seeing strange mirage-type images of green mountains, have seen branches with live, green leaves on them, floating in the water, and found freshly killed Mammoths, all at the North Pole. It all adds up. People believe and have even seen a hole in the ground in the North Pole, where it's very warm and green year round, in a hollow spot under the earth's crust, where decendants of the vikings now live. A scientist claims to have visited this world, and says that the people there are very tall, friendly, and have blond hair. And there are Dinosours there, too. It makes sense. We know Dinosours still exist, though few are spotted. Some Dinosouars must have lived in the hole at the time of whatever it was that made them extinct up here. Whether it be the change in climate, or meteors, they escaped it. We're not sure if it's true, but it is a very interesting and exiting theory worth researching.

Politics

Obama. What is up with that guy? Did you hear he is going to outlaw guns and bring all our troops home (which he doesn't support) if he gets elected? That ain't right. Vote for McCain!!!

Sports

I have one thing to say... GO STEELERS!!!!! Okay, now I'm good. I just had to say that. :)

Cool TV Shows

I recently came across two very exiting documentary series on the Discovery channel. Destroyed In Seconds and Storm Chasers. There must be something wrong with me. I greatly enjoy watching stuff get blown up and destroyed. ;) On Destroyed In Seconds, there was a man who built a completely bullet-proof bulldozer, and started bashing down cars and buildings with it to get revenge! And in the end, he died. Boy, some people. :P And there was a van that suddenly came crashing through the side of a diner, and one guy was so startled, he ended up on top of the table, while another man, who had been sitting only inches away from where the van had landed, just stood up, put his hat on, and walked away as if nothing had happened. As for Storm Chasers, well, I think I would actually enjoy being inches away from a tornado. I do love taking good nature pictures. So, they are still getting all the glitches out of the new, almost-indestructible storm-chasing vehicle they just built. Those are two great action-packed educational shows.

Did Ya Know?

Did you know, there is a village in Whales called "LLAN-FAIR-PWLL-GWN-GYLL-GOGERY-CHWY-RNDROB-WLLLLAND-YSILIO-GOGOGOCH"? And there is an Indian-named river called "CHAR-GOGGA-GOGG-MAN-CHAUGA-GOGG-CHAUBUNGA-GUNGA-MAUG"? (Both those are really all one word, I just put dashes between them to make them easier to read.) Try memorizing those!
