Another story from our trip to Chicago: We were stuck in the airport so decided to have a meal. We struck up a conversation with a man at the table next to ours. He was born in Liberia, Africa. (His great-grandparents actually were slaves in America but got to return to Africa when President...

I got all excited seeing I had a Private Message on Ranchersnet. Did anybody else receive this PM? Maybe only I was chosen as being the most ignorant rancher. "I am Tony male, 24years old. Actually, I need your assistance in completing a project in UNITED KINGDOM, LONDON. it's a deposit that...

I googled "snopes, dwarf, census" and they said that story about the dwarf census taker being locked in a closet (which I heard from a friend told as a true story) was actually a legend circulating as least since Feb. I should be more wary about posting. :(

A friend here told us last night that her friend was at work when her Downs Syndrome son called her and said he'd caught a gnome. She couldn't think what word her son meant and kept asking him to repeat what he'd found while trying to think of what word he could be trying to say. He became more...

People on a British gardening forum I’m on are currently sharing their funny denture experiences (which has nothing to do with gardening and just shows how far afield we can get). I hope you laugh as much as my hubby and I did. .... “We were out in a boat...

Just read in the news about the "expected" grasshopper invasion and hoping you get a cold wet spring to kill the nymphs off. It said the govt had spent $5.9 million (if I remember) to count the number of grasshoppers in each state which wiped out its budget so now has nothing to give to kill...

Don't know if this was ever posted but too cute: 1. A bicycle can't stand alone; it is two tired. 2. A will is a dead giveaway. 3. Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. 4. A backward poet writes inverse. 5. In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count...

Once again, The Washington Post has published the winning submissions to its yearly neologism contest, in which readers are asked to supply alternative meanings for common words. The winners are: 1. Coffee (n.), the person upon whom one coughs. 2. Flabbergasted (adj.), appalled over how...

I'm watching an old 1944 movie "To Have and Have Not" with Humphry Bogart because I'm too stiff to move out of my sofa tonight. The guy just bought gas for his boat and complained it cost 28 cents per gallon! Those were the days.

This might turn out to be a real attack: http://www.philly.com/philly/hp/news_update/30754579.html

TTB recommended this book on another thread. I also read it, then found the author actually giving his last lecture before he died. He is funny and makes some very good points. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo&feature=related

I'm halfway through this book about an intelligent yellow lab mix hunter type dog and it's writer/owner who doesn't believe in the standard training for dogs but lets the dog problem-solve himself. Very enjoyable with its mix of current science and biography. What did the rest of you think...

This was emailed to me and I have no idea if it is true though it sounds reasonable: Is this ever an eye opener. Directly opposite of what we've been taught over the years! I can remember in school being told to, 'duck and cover' or stand in a doorway during an earthquake. This guy's findings is...

This takes 8 min. to watch but presents plenty to think about concerning the future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMcfrLYDm2U&feature=related
