Good morning everyone

It is going to be in the 90 this weekend I will gladly send some of that heat to anyone who is interested

Today's Question(s):
When I was little I really wanted A DOG and MY EARS PIERCED because a lot of the kids had them ?
Bonus Question:
Yesterday we talked about what famous people we wanted to have lunch with
How many of you said " OOOO I want to have lunch with this person too " while reading other posters answers ? There were a few interesting answers that got my attention.
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of scale & honesty day
Have you ever "fudged" the numbers a bit when asked "How much do you weigh"? Only by a couple of pounds.
Speaking of weight
Where is "Wanda the weight loss Fairy"
I would be really happy if she could make SEVERAL pounds disappear?
Just for Fun:
What "College Fads" do you remember being popular when you were younger?
Today in History: 1772 - John Clais patents 1st scale 1885 - Boston Pops Orchestra forms 1889 - 1st U.S. national holiday, on centennial of Washington's inauguration 1904 - The Ice cream cone makes its debut 1947 - Maps had to be changed as Boulder Dam was changed back to its original name, Hoover Dam. Some people, mostly those who live in the community of Boulder, Nevada, still refer to the dam as Boulder Dam 1955 - A few University of Iowa men students released a little pent-up energy. They conducted the first ever panty raids at the women?s dorm. 1952 - Mr. Potato Head is 1st toy advertised on television

Good mornin' folks! Been in training all week to be a census enumerator.

They're just doing there job!
Our crew leader joked that, if somebody asks what we get out of doing this job, we could tell them $11.25 an hour and 50 cents a mile! lol
