What Cheered You Up Today? (1 Viewer)

[Maestro]

Finished math Project....it's not good but were not getting graded on how nice it is...as long as we can make a speech on the mathematician... the report was the big part.

A speech ? In Math ? Aren't you supposed to learn to COUNT in those classes ? Speeches are for the English/French classes !

Waking up, and not being blown up into little peices!!! Found out the furnace I had replaced last week had a small Carbon Monoxide leak. I suppose that explains the headaches I've been experiencing the last several months.

Jeez Bucksnort, good thing it didn't end up much worse!

My laugh of the day:
Went to the local supermarket to pick up the basics late this afternoon.
Got my groceries and was busy packing stuff in my backpack, when a tiny boy, age 2 or 3 or thereabouts, stumbles over to me and hollers: "Hi dad!"

Yes I've got short hair, and I was wearing black work pants and black work jacket suitable for a carpenter or a truck driver, plus a black baseball cap from a famous tool company, and sturdy work boots, but:
DAD??? Now THAT was a new one!

When I had finished packing my stuff, I went outside to walk home, and the more I thought about it, the more hilarious it became. I ended up walking home with a big grin plastered all over my face.
I mean: I do admit that I've said and done a lot of wild and crazy things in my time on this planet, and you can prolly blame me for some interesting things, but being a DAD sure as he** isn't one of them!

Hey Dad, I mean BB that was pretty funny

's alright son. *pats Bucksnort101 gently on the back*

The more I think about this little episode, the more it makes sense, seen from a 3-year old kid's perspective:
The kid's just discovered that he can use his legs for something else than kicking his feet in the air, he barely knows he's alive yet, then how the 'eck is he supposed to know the vital difference between boys and girls, let alone men and women, especially men - and a woman dressed in men's work gear?
This little episode had me totally in stitches the more I thought of it, I mean:
Here's this little boy, and in his little world, he's prolly thinking: Adult = DAD!
It's really cute when you think about it.

ALMOST finished with my god dammed book.........

 

[Loiner]

Walked into the local 'Smiths' bookshop and they had a soft back 'Special Forces Raids' book (from WWI and II) down from £7.99 to £1.99. There were two left and I thought I'll get one when I've finished browsing the store, a few minutes later there was only one left so thought I'd better get it immediately. It's a good publication featuring from Zeebrugge to St Nazaire raids and many in between, with most photos I've not seen before, mostly 'colorised', an excellant bargain. Made my day

 

[Catch22]

Got floor seats to an awesome concert in June! $110 though...

FINISHED my undergraduate degree! Not sure what I'm going to do next though, first thing is to drink (a lot) then ski and perhaps I'll think about what I'll do with my life next month...
