EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jackie- I BURST out laughing! That was a freaking riot!

It reminded me that last night we tried to watch Snakes on a Plane because for months after we heard that it was coming out, my hubby and I would walk around imitating Samuel L. Jackson "There's Motherf*&%^n SNAKES ON THIS PLANE!"

We were so psyched to watch it and just laugh and about thirty minutes in my hubby couldn't take it anymore (it was after those MF snakes bit a guy in his hoo-hoo

Unfortunately, snakes are not a friend to me either. Previously living in the country, I had told my small son to let me know if he ever saw a snake in the yard, and NOT mess with it. He came screaming in the back door one day that a snake was on the carport. Well, they really creeped me out, but I figured I needed to do something. (Just want you to know that just typing this has the hair on my arms standing up!) So I looked outside and OMG there it was, about 8-10 inches long, a baby if you will. I couldn't find a garden hoe, so I got a broom, and commenced to beatin the tar out of it. You see, people that fear snakes, even tiny ones figure, the only good snake is a dead one. It was pretty ridiculous though, a grown woman having a "hissy" fit, (pun intended,) my child screaming, and me with a broom in hand just wallupin the snot out of this little snake. Do you have any idea how hard it is to kill a snake with a broom? I finally did it in, to only find out later it was a baby copperhead, so I felt I did the right thing, and we disposed of it properly. Their venom is even more powerful than the adult, I have heard. So when I hear that old song, "I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes," it brings back such unfond memories!!

OMG - I would have jumped on top of the nearest table/car/tree (with child of course ) and waited for someone to save me!!!

Thankfully - we don't get too many in London (england)

Hey, I dont' see anything wrong with any of those excuses.....? Oh and, can we call in sick for being "sad?" ha ha ha! Shoot, I hate when I"m drunk and showboarding off the roof of my house...kinda tricky.

A buffalo escaped from the game reserve and kept charging the employee every time she tried to go to her car from her house.

So annoying when that happens

Employee was sad.

This should be a valid sick-day alibi

Maybe it's due to our lack of endowment for tassel-twirling abilities. I am, of course, only speaking for myself and Susie Q.

Those videos ARE classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mommagoose I see you!

I am currently watching the rest of Snakes on a Plane without hubby.....OMG...so dumb but there is one redeeming scene where the effeminate male flight attendant puts one of the snakes in the microwave and says "Who's your bi-ach now?"

Otherwise...useless! the snakes are SO fake.

[Jestgar]

That is a seriously cute puppy. I'm way too allergic to dogs to ever have one, but I love playing with other people's.

He's so sweet...but I just spent half an hour cleaning out my car as he got car sick! Poor baby! He's so sweet. His name is Angus and he welcomes you to the thread with kisses!

Did you know there are dogs that have hair, not fur, that many people don't react to? Wheaton Terriers (so cute and peppy!) and standard poodles and I think sheepdogs.

My tassel-twirling radar must have been activated to motivate me to stop in today.

Things are settling down at work, so don't twirl the tassels without me!

CHUCK NORRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.

Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.

Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.
