Today we ripped this meme off a blogger named Calvin at the blog Calvin’s Canadian Cave of Coolness. In fact this is not the first time that Cal has been the victim. This time though, he did not state where he got the meme. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft’s thieves might take some time. Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

(which we always seem to post on Wednesday)

Don’t forget to go visit the other participants’ blogs. Read and comment about all their Thursday Thunks! Thats what all this is about afterall, isn’t it? We’ll have so much fun and become lifelong friends….

These questions were inspired by the late George Carlin. His quotes are in bold. They were gathered from his routines. The TT questions are brought to you by Bud, the color KC’s eyes and the number 3.

1. Why do they ask you to get on the plane? Shouldn’t you get in it? When was your last flight?

About ten or eleven years ago. I used to fly a lot when I was a kid, mostly over seas. Once when we were flying back to Spain, my brother woke up from a nap and went to the restroom. The next thing we knew we heard some kid screaming and the flight attendants were running toward the back of the plan. My dad decided to see what was going on. It seems some kid had locked himself in the bathroom. Dad slid the little occupied sign over to available and out pops my brother. My dad was very surprised. My brother had still been half asleep, and had forgotten how to open the bathroom door.

2. Why do they call two planes getting too close a near miss? Shouldn’t it be a near hit? Have you ever been on a plane that was in trouble?

Not that I have been aware of.

3. If a mute swears, does his mother wash his hands with soap? What have you done when your child sweared?

My daughter makes a point of not swearing. My son is 20 and in the Marines, I am sure he swears often.

4. How about a restaurant for anorexics? What would you call it? The Empty Plate? When was the last time you went out to a fancy restaurant?

Years. It just not in our budget to do that.

5. Where do forest rangers go to ‘get away from it all’? What to you do to get away from it all?

The bathroom

6. Why do people who know the least know it the loudest? What do you do to get a know-it-all to shut up?

I walk away from them.

7. If a man speaks in the forest and there is no woman to hear him, is he still wrong? Men: does your woman (or most recent) think that you are always wrong? Women: Do you believe that men are always wrong?

No. Only sometimes.

8. If a turtle loses his shell, is it naked or homeless? Tell us about a time when you were caught naked.

ummm it happened just yesterday…….that is all of the story you are getting.

9. Would a fly that loses it wings be called a walk? How badly do flies annoy you?

Flies make me nutty. They are gross and annoying all at the same time.

10. Why do they report power outages on TV? When was the last time that you went without power?

Just a few weeks ago. The worst time we ever lost power was about four years ago. We had an ice storm and we lost power for three days. When we have not power, we have no water since we are on a well. When we lost power that time we had just gotten an order of one day old chicks in. They have to stay very warm and need light to eat. We put their brooder on a table and put them in front of the fireplace. We kept the fire very hot so that the chicks would stay warm, and put a battery powered lantern in the brooder so they would eat. We must have done a good job, because we did not lose any chicks during the power outage.

11. If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat? Have you ever been or considered to be a vegetarian?

No way, not even for a second.

12. If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent? Tell us about a time when either you were arrested or came close.

I have never been arrested, but when I was committed to the psychiatric hospital, I had to go by sheriff’s car. I had to ride in the back. The deputy could have handcuffed me, but since I was calm at the time, he chose not too.

13. Why isn’t there mouse-flavored cat food? Have you ever owned a cat?

We currently have two outside cats.

This week I decided to do thirteen pictures of me.

1.

2.
I am the girl holding the baby. The youngest boy is my brother. The oldest boy is my cousin, and the baby is my cousin.

The Queen’s Meme #32 ~ The Peep Peep Meme

Sometimes silly.
Sometimes serious.
Always fun!
Step out of the box.
Be creative.
Use your imagination.
No one’s answers are quite like you

Easter has come and gone. But I’ll bet you have stories to tell! We present: The Peep Peep Meme. I feel a sugar rush coming on….

1. What does Easter mean to you (if that is not too personal)?

To me Easter represents the day that Jesus was resurrected after being crucified.

2. When did you last go on an Easter egg hunt? Did you find anything?

I cannot remember the last time I went on an Easter Egg hut. I am sure I found the usual….eggs, candy, toys.

3. Your favorite celebrity is dressed up in a bunny outfit and about to jump out of a cake. Who is it?

It is a toss up between Johnny Depp and Edward Norton. Johnny Depp has the cuter butt, but there is something I find super sexy about Edward Norton.

4. What is the most unusual thing you’ve ever done with Easter eggs?

Grew grass in the broken half of an egg shell, it looked like a home made chia pet.

5. What’s your favorite color of peeps?

Purple, sometimes there are purple peeps hanging around. My daughter and I stuck some peeps on a stick and set them on fire.

6. Do you believe in the Easter Bunny?

Of course. The Easter Bunny is a personal friend mine.

7. Imagine: You are invited to the White House for the annual Easter egg hunt. What surprise should President Obama put in each egg for the kids?

A vote against the new health care plan, and a copy of his birth certificate so once and for all the debate over his birth place will be over.

8. What’s your favorite kind of candy to eat at Easter?

ferrio roche

9. Have you ever dyed eggs for Easter?

dyed them, glittered them, colored them with crayons, colored them with markers

10. You have just found a genuine Faberge egg (like the one pictured here) worth millions of dollars. Would you keep it or sell it for cash at auction? What would you do with the money?

Without hesitation I would sell it, and use the money to pay my bills, and then buy gifts for myself

11. Do you have an Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it?
Show us a picture of your hat.

no Easter hat for me, however I do have a picture of me wearing a hat when I was a teen, back in the 80’s. That is my brother with me.

12. Please share any special Easter memories or traditions you have with us.

One year we went to the Biltmore Estate and we got to go Easter Egg hunting there. It was very different for us,because it was a super fancy place.

My quote for today is:

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.~Nelson Mandela

This quotes represents all the times I have failed and how I finally decided to pick myself up and learn from my failures. It is a good feeling when I fail and I try again. Failures do not feel as bad now, because I know that I can get past the failure

I love quotes. Quotes of any kind, I just love ’em. I love to see what quotes inspire people on any given day. So I decided to start a meme that was all about quotes.

Starting Wednesday, April 7th, 2010 I will be starting and hosting a new meme, called The Quote Of The Day Meme.

It will be a very simple meme. All you have to do is to make a post with the quote you have picked for that day. If you want, you could even say why you picked that quote.

The quotes can come from the internet, books, poems, magazines, your own brain, your grandma, it does not matter.

I already have the button for it set up for it in my side bar.

I hope you all participate, Neighbors

This week we will answer some crazy questions brought to you by Kimber, the color of cooked crab, and the number 544.

No, I would never do that. However, I have encouraged my children to, so that we could see what would happen
