Careful what you say.

I have two verses of scripture that are in the Old Testament. They are in 2 Kings 2:23,24. I'll never mock a prophet of the Lord, ever...

23 And he went up from thence unto Beth-el: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

back spin

When you go anywhere and pay with a credit/debit card and the receipt prints out... did you ever notice that it usually curls under making it harder to sign? Some cashiers are nice and fold it so that it sits pretty much flat. I thought of something that might help... Why not just one more roller in the machine to back roll it so it sits flat? Would it work? It's a minor inconvenience but I'm lazy and want it to lay flat.

Are you walkie and talkie General?

Did you know that the walkie talkie was actually invented for military use... seems logical... I'd like you to watch Brian Regan's take on this invention...

22... that's it?

An elephants gestation is somewhere around 22 months (630-660 days). It is the longest gestation of all mammals and after which usually only one calf is born; twins are rare. I'm sure for my wife her pregnancy is like the elephants.

um... uhhh... its on the tip of my tongue...

When you can't remember what word you want to use in a conversation you can use "lethologica." This word will describe the state of not being able to remember the word. Good luck remembering the word to describe the state of not being able to remember the word.

whip it good

Did you know that when you crack a bull whip the tip of the whip actually breaks the sound barrier. Therefore the sound you hear is actually a small sonic boom. I don't dare try this because usually when I crack a whip I hit myself... no need in hitting myself at 700 mph...

New Blog

In my new blog I plan to just relate odd obscure things that I learn throughout my life. I don't plan it on being anything life changing and so you shouldn't either... if you read this.
