    Is a light bulb still a light bulb when it is turned off?

    As I understand it, it doesn't matter how many quilts we make out of our stash. What really matters is - She who dies with the most fabric wins.
    I wonder what I'll win?
    :lol: :lol: More fabric, of course!! :lol: :lol:

    I wonder how a special locket I have will sometimes fall off the chain, but the chain is still intact, and the locket bale (sp) has no gaps!! :shock: My sweetie is the one who gave it to me for my birthday. He is a magician so I often wonder if he has something to do with it! :lol: :lol:

    I wonder how it's possible for my mother to remember EVERYONE's birthdates right down to the YEAR, and I have trouble just remembering how old I am!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

    I wonder why all the maple trees in my neighborhood don't lose their leaves at the same time so all the raking can be done and over with, but oh no-o-o-o-o-o!!! My jumbo-sized maple tree drops them first, then my neighbor to the right of me, then my neighbor to the left of me, then the neighbor across the street from me!!!!! What's up with that??!! :shock: :evil: And get this: most of them seem to fall on MY YARD!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: Does my yard contain some sort of leaf magnet? :? :roll:

    I also wonder about Nudist Community's...Uhhh suppose a man sees an attractive woman and is stimulated. Gross~! :D[/quote]
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    At one time long, long ago, my late DH and I agreed with friends that we shouldn't be hicks and not even check out nudist camps on the CA coast. We went there..part way inside, and the sight of some skinny and one fat older men riding on small motor bikes with their long hair and ding dongs flapping in the wind sent us into convulsions of laughter. We were politely asked to come back some other time when we hadn't been drinking, as alcohol was not allowed.
    We didn't drink, but felt like it when we got home, still giggling at times from the memory. Never did go where we could take off all our clothes, decided that we really were hicks!!!

    When I went to live with my parents and many younger siblings, Mom had a hard time even remembering all our names, much less unneeded details such as birthdays. She would start with one name and go down the line..Patty, Ramona, Vivian, Judy, Richard..yes, you're Richard and you know darn well you are, so you're the one the neighbors said threw the rock that broke the window...

    Ha Ha, My daughters wondered the same thing about strippers!

    I wondered about that some time ago and asked one of the nurses we work with. She said there's a medical way of extracting the ...flow...all at once so the uterus will be clean. She said that she suspects that Nevada's Ladies of the Night might do the same.

    I wonder why pedestrians in DC/NOVA feel like they have the right of way and can run across a highway with 45 mph limit? Don't they value their lives?

    Ok I got another one. Why can't we keep our eyes open when we sneeze? And why is a yawn so contagious?
