AHH-CHOO!

Did you hear that?  That was my body kickin’ the bad guys out.  Y’see, I’ve got a slight cold.  Sniffling, sneezing, congestion in the head, sore throat.

Isn’t it amazing how when you’re sick your body never runs out of snot?  You can blow your nose 10 times in a short period of time and then just a minute later it’s ready to be blown again…  It’s an endless supply of snot.  But if that’s what it takes to get the germs out…

When you wipe your nose and get some liquidious snot on your fingers, then rub your fingers together, where does the snot go?  Is it absorbed back into the body?  If so, does it get reused by the body?  Or is it broken down into its basic elements?  No one’s ever been able to give me an answer on this…

new story #1 : Burford’s weekend

We’re going to start a story.  It’s really simple and there’s just a few rules.  Read through the post and the comments, then add whatever you want to the end.  You may not write back-to-back (even with different aliases), but you may participate multiple times.  No vulgarity or profanity.  (The language rules of the site still apply.)  End your part of the story with some type of cliff-hanger or unfinished sentence, to set up the next person’s part.  And keep it short.  (If you want to write a novel, get your own site.)  If we have two people reply at about the same time and it ruins the continuity of it, we may delete the newer post.  (If that happens, it’s nothing personal; it’s just a situation that might happen.)  At a time of my discretion, I will end it.  And, of course, remember to have fun with this.  Be random and funny.  Now, let us begin…

It was Friday evening, and Burford was sitting on his couch at home, trying to decide how to spend his weekend.  It had been a long work week, and he didn’t want to do anything resembling work.  He wanted to do something adventurous, something he’d never done before.  As he contemplated various ideas, the phone rang.  This surprised Burford, because he wasn’t expecting any calls.  He picked up the phone and was shocked to hear the voice of…

Flight Sim

I was perusing the web the other day and found an interesting site I’d like to pass on to everyone. (click here) It’s called ‘goggles’. It’s a flight sim that uses images loaded from googles mapping server.

To control the plane use the arrow keys to bank and dive. Use A and Z to change speed and use ‘SPACE’ to fire.

You can’t ‘actually’ destroy anything… but what random fun it Is to drive a cartoon plane around London, or even the moon!

the Boss Hogg Biscuit

This morning I stopped at a gas station to fuel up on the way to work, and for breakfast picked up what they call the “Boss Hogg Biscuit”.  Isn’t that one of the neatest names for a food product?  (If you don’t get it, it’s referring to the Dukes of Hazzard.)  As you might figure, it was loaded with sausage, bacon, egg, and cheese.  And it was good.  I wouldn’t say it was the best one ever, but it has what’s probably the best name for a breakfast biscuit.

More restaurants should come up with creative names for their food…
