Merry Christmas! (movie provided courtesy of Al Boe)

Hey Everyone. Things are going great. Unfortunately my camera got dropped in the ocean so i can't update with pictures for a while. :o( Guess that's what happens when you take your camera to work with you every day. We'll be visiting Minnesota for Christmas, so we'll probably see most of you then. Happy Holidays, and Merry Christmas. Oh, and EVERYONE go see the Nativity Story. It's awesome! ok, good nite.

Here's a few fun pics for you. Yep, i'm still alive and kicking. Been pretty busy. (imagine that :o)





 

Here's some pics from mn i promised a while back.




 

Halo Wars!!!!! Another amazing addition to the Halo world. No this is not Halo 3. this is a strategy game not unlike Age of the Empires, made exclusively for the Xbox 360! When can i get mine????

hey everyone! it's been a long time, i know. At least i have an excuse... my computer crashed! Yep, so i've been pretty busy trying to get that up and running again, and with work and everything, it's just been pretty busy. i haven't even gotten the pictures off of my camera from MN when we visited the 22-24. Anyway, i'm starting to get caught up, so i'll post some pics in a few... Stay tuned...

Ok, here's some more nonsense for you...

Test for Dementia

Below are four (4) questions and a bonus question. You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, answer all of them immediately. OK?

Let's find out just how clever you really are.


Ready? GO!!! (scroll down)




First Question:

You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?





Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are

absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second!

Try not to screw up in the next question.

To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for the first question.

Second Question:

If you overtake the last person, then you are...?





Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person?







You're not very good at this! Are you?





Third Question:

Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only.



Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.





Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000

Now add 10. What is the total?



Scroll down for answer.

Did you get 5000?

The correct answer is actually 4100.



Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?







Fourth Question:



Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini,

4. Nono.

What is the name of the fifth daughter?


Answer: Nunu?


NO! Of course not.

Her name is Mary. Read the question again





Okay, now the bonus round:

There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By

imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is

done.


Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of

sunglasses, how should he express himself?

















He just has to open his mouth and ask, so simple.

Check this out!

Anyone interested?

Nobody like my videos????

this is GRRRRRRREEEEEAAAAAAT! Check it out!


















Another great vid. (You seen it?)

HEY STOOOOOP!

Just wanted to grab your attention, and tell you this is a new post, so don't turn the page yet!

"Stuff To Live By?"

Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.

Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors, and miss.

Cooking lesson #1: don't fry bacon in the nude.

Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.

Eat a live toad in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you for the rest of the day.

If life gives you lemons, squeeze the juice into a water gun and shoot other people in the eyes.

If you're not part of the solution, be part of the problem!

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

If you can't beat your computer at chess, try kick boxing.

If you try and don't succeed, cheat. Repeat until caught. Then lie.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Never buy a car you can't push.

Never eat yellow snow.

Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you don't have a leg to stand on.

Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.

The early worm gets eaten by the bird, so sleep late.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.

When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
