It seems even the bucket got filled with sand!  So to stay off topic, I thought I would start this thread (with a little encouragement and prompting).

Here is a fact, apparently:

 A South American scientist from Argentina, after a lengthy study, has 
 discovered that people with insufficient brain and sexual activity read 
 their e-mail with their hand on the mouse. Don't bother taking it off now, 
 it's too late.

So happy off topic to you.  Remember, if you reply the subject cannot be related to the previous post! (Like that will happen!)

So, if we reply to the previous post we will then be off topic. But wait!! NO! The title of the thread is OT, so to stay on topic we must go off topic, & to be off topic we should reply to the previous post, because we're not supposed to! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!

More coffee!!!!!!

I just woke up... took a shower... and am trying to decide what to do for breakfast.  I keep seeing the commercials for the new Bagel BELT at Tim Horton's... and I'm leaning towards this.  Although... waffles would be good too.  haha!

The BELT has cheese too, that makes it a BELTC (add an H you get a burp)

Why, oh why, does the Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson have to be on so darned LATE?  The host is hilarious (and I'm a sucker for a Scots accent), but I have to get up the next morning to go to work. ~sigh~

I must have been having a blond moment because I only just figured out now that the OT in the title of this thread stand for OFF TOPIC.  I thought it was OVER TIME.  hahaha!

Speaking of "off-topic", I had the funniest conversation with a little two year old girl at work this past week - it went something like this:

"My daddy plays hockey!"

"That's nice, do you ever go and watch daddy play hockey?"

"Yeah...I like eating cheese!"

And as if that in itself wasn't funny enough, later on she ran around the corner of the playground, put both her arms up in the air and yelled "TOUCHDOWN!!!"

Ahhh, the joys of children!

On Friday, one of the students from the class next door to mine came in for a visit during her break.  This lady's first language is Chinese.  She watched as a student in my class wrote some sentences in cursive.  The Chinese lady then tried to explain what the writing looks like to Chinese people, but she couldn't find the right word.  She made circles around her tummy, but I had no idea what she was trying to say.  Finally, with the help of another Chinese lady in my class, she found the word she was looking for.

To Chinese people, western cursive script looks like INTESTINES.

How's that for off topic?

Yesterday is yesterday. (This Town)

It's only heaven descending. (Black Ribbon)

Just remember, if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.

It was -22 C in Huntsville this morning.

There was ice fog rising off the river that runs through town and it was brilliant, sunny and windless.

Falling out of favour or embraced

Patiently waiting
So let the angels sing
Silently weeping

I just watched Northanger Abbey on PBS. It was very good! Gotta love a story about a heroine who reads too many novels. I must confess, though, that Jane Austen is about the only author that makes me openly act all girly about mushy relationship stuff, i.e., actually squealing at the screen or book when characters get engaged or married.
