It's Another Twisted List

November 25th 2007 23:21
Shocking News:


There are Simple Remedies to Simple Problems:

1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling coffee down your throat and presto, the blockage will be almost instantly removed. (Refer back to Swallow or Spit choices.)

2. Clumsy in the kitchen? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away with a short sword, pesky in-laws work well.

3. Guys, avoid arguments with the Lady of the House about lifting the toilet seat by simply using the sink; and quit putting cellophane wrap over the porcelain opening beneath the seat.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed into a container for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer and make a few blood sausages from the surplus.

5. Didja know a mousetrap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button, but then, so will dozens of large tacks glued to its surfaces.

6. If you have a bad cough and insist upon going out on the town, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough. But, hold with the giggles, it's unsightly on first dates.

7. So, you have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a hammer and chew on an ice cube, you will instantly forget all about the toothache, and the ice will help reduce the swelling.

8. Remember, you only need two common items to get through most household tasks:

A) An Industrial sized can of WD-40, if it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40, and
B) Gorilla Brand Duct Tape, if it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
(These rules are null and void if spouses are involved.)

9. Caution: Everyone seems normal until you get to know him, her, it, them or you.

10. Never pass up an opportunity twice to go to the bathroom and never ever jog barefoot behind someone that has.

Thoughts for the day:

If you woke up breathing, congratulations. You have another chance to really muck things up.

Be nice to your family and friends; you never know when you might need them to empty your bedpan or their bank account, especially gramma.

Did you ever notice that some folks are like cats...they are not really good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you boot them down a flight of stairs.

Raven has issues, how about you?

Raven does indeed have issues. Very funny! And I like your small monkey. (That is not a metaphor.)

a welcome break from diapertime newsletters and almost flushed toothbrushes. Thanks for the Chuckle. I gotta go, my daughter just swallowed something shiny
