Interesting things you find out when you have sons, like...
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3. A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant. (That one actually applied to his sister at that age... wait, it still does.)
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9. A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old Man says they can only do it in the movies.
10. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4- year old Boy.
11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue is forever.
13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18. You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.
20. The fire department in Austin , TX (or Fremont) has a 5-minute response time.
21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24. 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.
25. 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.

Hmmm...why is it that I suddenly have a mental pic of your hubby mixing clorox and brake fluid???
:-)
Thanks for the funny!
hopefully our blogger issues will be resolved soon and you can see all the riviting posts I've done that have yet to appear....ooh! the suspense and excitement...or something....
eye
*lol* I know... I was picturing the same thing when I first saw that... :)
hmm...he's gotten predictable ;-)
how are you girl???
*lol* I'm good. Busy, tired, keeping warm, starting young adult thing for church (although most definitely not limited to "our" church cause that is just stupid), enjoying the snow...etc :) You?
we're about the same other than enjoying the snow ;-) we're ready for it all to go away or for God to move us to a tropical island :-)
Darryl's still teaching the young adult class on Thursdays...going pretty well!!
so...when you gonna trek to Buffalo for some Chilis?? or Olive Garden....or any of the restaurants I've come to adore since transplanting myself to the big city....my family finds it amusing how I've become such a city girl...dude, there is not one starbucks in all of allegany county...that's just sad! People need grande soy caramel macchiatos when recovering from surgery...lol...or so I tried to convince my mother.....
OK, so how many of these have you actually experienced with your guys? (You can plead the 5th). Makes me think of "things you never want to hear your kids say", but Mom remembers hearing: from your brother D - "Hey, Mom, guess where my car is?" and from you - "... you know how in the movies when cars are on fire they BLOW UP? Well, in real life thay don't actually do that".
