Oh,
Cranky.....you score again. My favorites were the Ipad and the
shark...brilliant.
But I am entering this week and I pick the oatmeal. I've tried it and it just doesn't stick my fingers together like the real stuff.

Hmmm is it the
super glue?
Yes, yes it
is. Find Nina and interesting posts @ http://benchmark60.blogspot.com/
I'm picking
the Oatmeal Superglue. Even though oatmeal sticks to your ribs, I think there's
a more secret ingredient to that glue.
Val and Fran…I’ll
get you yet!!

Seinfeld, 44 oz. Diet Coke and gas station chicken, then you will love the

Umm....what's a "Wales date"? Is that some kind of New Jersey thing? Is it something kinky? Does it involve farm animals?
ReplyDeletei'm with lowandslow. i didn't get that headline at all!
ReplyDelete:)
Not to make too much fun of a tragedy---but I'm glad the goats were ready with their hoses to douse that fire at SFO.
ReplyDeleteThis week I think it's Physicist proves water actually freezes at 31.99821 degrees Fahrenheit. I don't know what a "Wales date" is, either. I have to admit I don't understand New Jersey people!!
ReplyDeleteI understand these headlines ever since I bought a mobile home from an old lady with a new battery.
ReplyDeleteYou've got me totally baffled.....laughing but baffled.
ReplyDeleteNot only do I have not a clue about the fake, I am completely flummoxed by Wales Date.
Help us out here, Sweetcheeks....it's not fair to make things too hard.
I'm going with the poppy seed baby one as the fake story.
ReplyDeleteI don't get that one about the "Wales date" either, but I'll pick the tree lobster as the fake. Everybody know lobsters are lousy at climbing trees.
ReplyDeleteI missed last week's post, but I've heard of some oatmeal made by a sailor that was so thick and sticky, when the ship hit rough seas and the pot got knocked upside down onto the deck, none of the oatmeal came out of the pot. (True story!)
To JJ: That's probably my problem--I think I need a new battery!!
ReplyDeleteI say the Tree Lobster is fake. Isn't that what parents always tell their kids when they ask for lobster? "Lobsters don't grow on trees, you know."
