Today's Question: If I were to step inside your door and go left 10 steps, where would I be in your house?
Out in the street. Or did you mean the other door?

Extra Credit Question: Have you ever been in a hot air balloon?
Heck no and you couldn't get me to either. I think they're stupid.
Why would anyone go up in the sky standing in a big basket?
No. Not me. I'll sit on my porch and have a beer or two while you go.

Bonus Question: Have you kept your New Years Resolution so far?
Yeah. I said I would eat more and I am.

Just for Fun: If you had a vanity plate, what 7 letters would you have on it?
FEEDBAG

Today in History:
1493 - 1st sight of manatees by Christopher Columbus
What? So what? I had my first Pepsi in 1979 - whoopie do!
That's also the year that I had my first ham and swiss sandwich -
Oh God, let me call the TV station!
1788 - Connecticut becomes 5th state
To do what?
1793 - Jean Pierre Blanchard makes 1st balloon flight in North America What an idiot.
1854 - Astor Library opens in New York City
? Huh? When did Burger King open?
1857 - 7.9 earthquake shakes Fort Tejon California
Why don't they make shoes with shock absorbers in them?
1880 - 6' (1.8 meters) of snow falls in Seattle in 5 days
I had Seattle Seahawks picked for yesterday's great win over the New Orleans Saints! Yayyy, and I know....who cares.
1959 - "Rawhide" with Clint Eastwood premieres on CBS TV
Clint Eastwood, #1 actor. That man is truly great. Want to see a good Eastwood movie that you probably never saw before?
It's called, "White Hunter, Black Heart". Excellent masterpiece.
1973 - Luna 21 launched, to Moon What the heck is that?
1976 - CW McCall CB song "Convoy" hit #1 on the country music charts No comment, with respect for those country music fans.
But I gotta say, what's with the cowboy hats.
1979 - K-Mart pulls Steve Martin's "Let's Get Small" for being in "bad taste" Oh? Well then to heck with K-Mart. I hope they all burn down.
Steve Martin is one of my all time favorite stars!

Word of the Day:
sockdolager \sok-DOL-uh-jer\ , noun

Today's Question: If I were to step inside your door and go left 10 steps, where would I be in your house? You'd smack your head against a wall with only a couple steps. Going through the wall you'd be in the air tub. Not a bad place to be!


Extra Credit Question: Have you ever been in a hot air balloon?
No. Though I don't like heights I've always wanted to try this. To those who have, what is it like?

Bonus Question: Have you kept your New Years Resolution so far? No resolutions here.


Just for Fun: If you had a vanity plate, what 7 letters would you have on it? Breathe

Enjoy your day.

Today's Question: If I were to step inside your door and go left 10 steps, where would I be in your house?
You'd walk into a wall after one step but if you go straight 10 or 12 steps and then go left you'll be in my bedroom.



Extra Credit Question: Have you ever been in a hot air balloon?
No never have


Bonus Question: Have you kept your New Years Resolution so far?
Yes except for that Mexican food I ate day before yesterday

Good morning. Thank you GG for doing the QOD.


If I were to step inside your door and go left 10 steps, where would I be in your house?
The kitchen Island


Have you ever been in a hot air balloon? No but that would be cool


Have you kept your New Years Resolution so far? I didn't make any but I did start a diet last week and I'm doing well. Thank you

If you had a vanity plate, what 7 letters would you have on it?
HOTSTUF Only kidding.

I really would never have a vanity plate but if I did it would be something like:
BEHAPPY or
KISSOFF....lol


Too bad we can't use emoticons on our plates, lol. Who knows that may be in the future...not.



1493 - 1st sight of manatees by Christopher Columbus Ooh I love them

Balloon Ascension Day is always better than Balloon Plummeting Day.


Today's Question: If I were to step inside your door and go left 10 steps, where would I be in your house?

To the left, you'd be smushed against the wall that leds to the garage. To the right you'd be in a sunroom.

Extra Credit Question: Have you ever been in a hot air balloon?

Years ago. I didn't like it.

Bonus Question: Have you kept your New Years Resolution so far?

Yup, so far so good!

Just for Fun: If you had a vanity plate, what 7 letters would you have on it?

Hmmm... Caladium is 8 letters. Which letter gets dumped???? Decisions, decisions.
