10/17/2009 Now We Know Why.....

Now we know why most people wait until November to arrive in Arizona. Today we topped out at 102 degrees! Mid October and its 102. I don't remember it being this hot at this time last year. It couldn't have been, I'd remember that.

Bob should be thankful. Yeah, he bitched and complained about how much stuff we were moving from the 5th wheel to the park model and I have to admit, it did seem excessive.....until today. I took a bike ride through the park today to see who had arrived and I also wanted to go and say hello to Bonnie and Dan who recently pulled in. When I got there, there were large Rubbermaid containers everywhere, and suitcases and hatboxes and cardboard boxes and that was just Bonnie's clothes. Her closet was already full and she had taken half of Dan's small section that she had allowed him. This was in addition to the clothes she left there last year. I lost count at 16 pairs of shoes. She tried to explain to me why they were all necessary. There were Yoga clothes, bike riding clothes, clothes to be worn when driving her motorcycle, dress clothes, cleaning clothes, just hangin' out clothes. Now I was never, ever a clothes nut so this was just beyond my comprehension. I just don't get it, I wear the same clothes to vacuum the carpet that I wear to ride my bike. But hey, that's just me. I'm going to have to investigate this further and see if all the women here have vacuuming clothes versus just hangin' out clothes. Yep, Bob should be thankful.


Here are some things for you to ponder....


Can you cry under water?


How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

If money doesn't grow on trees then why do banks have branches?

Since bread is square, then why is sandwich meat round?

Why do you have to "put your two cents in".. . but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?

Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?

Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

What disease did cured ham actually have?

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby"when babies wake up like every two hours?

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

If you drink Pepsi at work in the Coke factory, will they fire you?

Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

How come we choose from just two people for President and fifty for Miss America?

Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway.

Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?

Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet soup?

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out!"

Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer?

If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?

If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?

Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

Can blind people see their dreams?

If Wyle E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?

Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?

Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?


"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well
preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out, thoroughly used up, and loudly
proclaiming, "WOW.....WHAT A RIDE!!!"

In Defense....no vacumn clothes...whatever I have on...when I bicycle I don't just ride around the park...minimum 15 miles so that requires special shorts and bright shirts that wick away sweat...motorcycle jeans are cut differently thru the seat( alittle fuller) for long distance sitting and leather is important for warmth, wind protection, and safety...and back 20 years ago when I race competitively I learned the importance of good shoes thus my walking shoes are decent (not great) and I walk a minimum of 3 miles when I set out...LOL Bonnie
