TIDBITS

They Walk Among Us

I was at the checkout of a K-Mart. The clerk rang up the $46.64 charge. I gave her a fifty-dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave it back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY favor and gave her the money back. She became indignant and informed me she was educated and knew what she was doing, and returned the money again. I gave her the money back again...same scenario! I departed the store with the $46.64.

This actually happened to me in Austin at MoPac Blvd and Parmer Lane.
----------------------------------------------------------
I walked into a Mickey D's with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a sandwich. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard that said, "Buy one-get one free." "They're already buy-one-get-one-free", she said, "so I guess they're both free" She handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door.
----------------------------------------------------------
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the north?" When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh I don't keep up with that stuff."
.They Walk Among Us!!
----------------------------------------------------------
I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?"Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific."
----------------------------------------------------------
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a seat belt if she is trapped. She keeps it in the trunk..
----------------------------------------------------------
My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount.
----------------------------------------------------------
I could not find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me , has your plane arrived yet?"
----------------------------------------------------------
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. "Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces."

They Walk Among Us, AND they reproduce, and WORST OF ALL..................................they may VOTE!

The Truth About the Pig/Tiger Cubs

The Internet lore has it that the female tiger pictured suckling baby pigs had lost a litter of her own tiger cubs and the baby pigs helped ease her through her depression at the loss.

Tigers with pigs dressed as tigers on back


The truth, it would turn out, is a bit more sordid.

From Snopes.com:
The images displayed above were taken in 2004 at the Sriracha Tiger Zoo in Chonburi, Thailand. Although the Sriracha Tiger Zoo hosts one of the world's most successful tiger breeding programs, unlike most western zoos it also offers circus- and carnival-like shows, exhibits, and interactions, including (as evidenced here) the mixture of adults and young of quite different species in the same enclosures. As described by the AWI Quarterly, a publication of the Animal Welfare Institute:


The Sriracha Tiger Zoo, an hour outside of Bangkok, Thailand, is truly an amazing place. Boasting more than 400 tigers, a handful of Asian elephants, piles of crocodiles, camels, snakes and other exotic animals, the zoo has some intriguing, yet troubling exhibits.

So okay, I admit that I'm a sucker for such cute pictures and the bittersweet lying explanations that accompany them. For with all the miracle wrought by the Internet and the instant communication allowed by same is surely how quickly a blatant lie can make it around the world whilst the truth is still sleeping. That tiger with the piglets all decked out in tiger fur coats is nothing more but a promotional hype or worse, it could be helping a slap-dash animal show continue with its errant ways.

While I might not catch these sorts of urban legends right away, I will always post any corrections on this Blog should they be required.

Don't Miss Al Gore's "Live Earth" On This Weekend Across the Planet

....and in case you were worried about the cancelled concert in Rio de Janeiro, do not worry any more....THE CONCERT'S STILL ON!

From TVNZ.com:
The Live Earth concert in Rio de Janeiro was expected to go ahead after organizers overcame security concerns and a judge lifted a ban on the climate change awareness event on Thursday.

"The show is on again. The prosecutor's office asked the judge to reconsider and she revoked the suspension," a spokeswoman for the Rio Justice Tribunal said.

Rio is the last concert in Saturday's Live Earth global series - partly organized by former US Vice President Al Gore - with events also due in London, Sydney, Johannesburg, Tokyo, Shanghai, Hamburg and East Rutherford, New Jersey.

I know myself is quite keen to tune into such a sack of lies because not only is global warming a total work of fiction us dumb peons should be singing and praising our wise celebrities across the planet who bring us truth.

I've got a hinky feeling about this earth-wide concert. I'm hinky that a lot of folks simply will not behave.

We shall see.

Speaking of Al Gore ...

I'll not rant about Gore's son who was arrested while breezing along at 100 mph in a Toyota Prius.

From TMZ.com:
!) When deputies searched the car they found pot, along with Valium, Xanax, Vicodin and Adderall. He is currently being held at the Santa Ana Inmate Reception Center on $20,000 bail.

My rant is about all those damn drugs these celebrated types keep managing to obtain. Of late there's been at least three celebrity types involved with a plethora of prescription drugs and first, where are the so-called physicians prescribing this stuff? Anna Nicole had a veritable drug store in her refrigerator, Chris Benoit the wrestler is alleged to have a house full of drugs and now Al Gore's son has a car full of this stuff.

Understand here that these are all LEGAL drugs although, heh, there's that little matter of needing a prescription.

Al Gore's son is Al Gore's problem although this wreckless driving on a public road, I might remind, is OUR problem. But the widespread use of these legal drugs troubles me greatly. Why have laws and rules if no one pays them any mind?

I Didn't Know That Vogue Had a Magazine for Men!

Although I'm betting it's read by very few men. Heh.

At any rate, the next issue had a stellar feature on our own Breck girl, John Edwards.

Michael Jackson Moving to Merryland?

The quiet town of St. Michael's, Maryland is the last place a pervert like Michael Jackson should be living. Yet as Yahoo reports, the pervert is looking for a home there.
Local media reported that Jackson helicoptered last weekend into the 17th century Chesapeake Bay-front village on Maryland's Eastern Shore, where the US vice president and former defense secretary keep holiday getaways, to cruise the real estate market for his own digs.

Only problem with Mr. Jackson's purchase of a home in those parts is that, heh, homes in St. Michael's cost money.

Michael Jackson has no money and has to travel the world freeloading with those who will have him.

Micky Mouse Murdered by Israel!

One of these days the world will get a clue about that crazy place called Palestine. A country populated mostly by Muslim criminals and governed for decades now by the United Nations but still they all live in ghettos.

They keep the population happy with those who have failed them by directing their collective hatred at neighboring Israel.

From Newsday.com:
A Mickey Mouse lookalike who preached Islamic domination on a Hamas-affiliated children's television program was beaten to death in the show's final episode Friday.

In the final skit, "Farfour" was killed by an actor posing as an Israeli official trying to buy Farfour's land. At one point, the mouse called the Israeli a "terrorist."

"Farfour was martyred while defending his land," said Sara, the teen presenter. He was killed "by the killers of children," she added.


Farfour the Palestinian Micky Mouse

I mean, come on. When does it get so bad that the sane people on the planet do something about these nuts?
