If I could have any Superpower I would choose…

The ability to read people’s minds!
Why you may ask. Well, I will tell you:

Now close your eyes and imagine with me…
(Okay never mind, don’t close your eyes because then you can’t read. Duh)

With the power to read minds I would:
Read the thoughts of my dates. Dang that would be SO nice
Make anyone laugh because I’d know what makes them tick.
More easily solve problems and arguments.
Be the ultimate lie detector in the police field.
Finally understand how Men’s brains work.
Solve mysteries and crimes. I am very, very sneaky sir
Never falsely accuse or blame.
Predict future events, plots and intents.
Always know the needs of others and know how best to meet them.
Know where people are and how they are feeling.
Persuade buyers and be the best salesperson ever.
Hang around others with the same goals and aspirations.
Make myself better by following the suggestions of friends.
Know when someone is lying to me and discover why.
Never get caught being gullible again. At least I'd hope not
Surpass Batman because I could fight crime BEFORE it happens.
Transport myself through time so I could be a “Thought Police” in 1984.
I love that book, if you havent read it yet, DO!
Sounds great doesn’t it? But of course “With great knowledge, comes great responsibility.” I would not want such a Superpower unless I could easily control it; the ability to turn it on and off.


So which Power would YOU choose?

El Guapo Sandwich

Truly created by a Master -No one alive is faster
Soft white sesame breads –Not that gross wheat that sheds
Rich, creamy Ranch dressing –It’s great, start confessing
Sliced Jalapenos on top –Give it that special pop
Chicken in Mesquite dips –(The stuff goes to my hips)
Holey-moley Swiss cheese –Don’t forget the Cheddar please!
Crispy bacon scents fill my nasal –Add Oregano and some Basil
Send it through the flaming toaster –“Put this sub up on a poster!”
No! Lettuce is not allowed –Load on the 81, make him proud!
You’ll get thirsty, Grab a DEW –Get a pile of napkins too
Come around, buy a few -It always tastes so fresh and new

Random Pondering

If you had x-ray vision, and could see through anything,
wouldn't you see through everything and actually see nothing?

First Kisses

BITTER?
Naive, inexperienced, immature, awkward, fallacious, insincere.
The reason I wrote this is because Adonis and I were playing
-OR- the game Apples to Apples and the green card read:
Naive and he put down First kisses thinking his card would
SWEET? be chosen. I dont get guys, they make O sense
Pleasant, innocent, harmless, untainted, genuine, delightful.

Cow Tipping

THE TIMES

IT IS the kind of story you hear from a friend of a friend — how, after a long night in a rural hostelry and at a loss for entertainment in the countryside, they head out into a nearby field.

There, according to the second-hand accounts, they sneak up on an unsuspecting cow and turn the poor animal hoof over udder.
But now, much to the relief of dairy herds, the sport of cow-tipping has been debunked as an urban, or perhaps rural, myth by scientists at a Canadian university.

Margo Lillie, a doctor of zoology at the University of British Columbia, and her student Tracy Boechler have conducted a study on the physics of cow-tipping.


Ms Boechler, now a trainee forensics analyst for the Royal Canadian Mounted Corps, concluded in her initial report that a cow standing with its legs straight would require five people to exert the required force to bowl it over.

A cow of 1.45 meters in height pushed at an angle of 23.4 degrees relative to the ground would require 2,910 Newton’s of force, equivalent to 4.43 people, she wrote.

Dr Lillie, Ms Boechler’s supervisor, revised the calculations so that two people could exert the required amount of force to tip a static cow, but only if it did not react.

“The static physics of the issue say . . . two people might be able to tip a cow,” she said. “But the cow would have to be tipped quickly — the cow’s centre of mass would have to be pushed over its hoof before the cow could react.”

Newton’s second law of motion, force equals mass multiplied by acceleration, shows that the high acceleration necessary to tip the cow would require a higher force. “Biology also complicates the issue here because the faster the [human] muscles have to contract, the lower the force they can produce. But I suspect that even if a dynamic physics model suggests cow tipping is possible, the biology ultimately gets in the way: a cow is simply not a rigid, unresponding body.”

Another problem is that cows, unlike horses, do not sleep on their feet — they doze. Ms Boechler said that cows are easily disturbed. “I have personally heard of people trying but failing because they are either using too few people or being too loud. “Most of these ‘athletes’ are intoxicated.”

I almost chucked my visor out of the car window today

The sun visor in my old Camry is quite rusty these days. It is wearing out from serious over use. I must use all my strength to pull it off the clip and move it over the side window. My dad is a squeak freak, so he kindly greased it up for me yesterday without my knowledge.

On my way home from school today the sun was in my eyes. My natural instinct is to cover the sun with the visor. And that’s what I did. But because my muscle memory remembers how difficult it usually is to move I ripped too hard and too dangerously fast. And I threw it right out the window. I almost busted it off the hinge!

I am so VERY grateful the window was down. Had it not been I would be in the hospital with a crushed hand now. What a story that would be to tell everyone! I have to chuckle when I think of the cars around me who saw. Can you imagine seeing someone push their visor out the window so it was sticking straight out? What fun!

Puzzled

I am sitting before you as a very confused daughter of God. I have spiritually been placed in a blender. I wish God had not given me such a desire to seek knowledge about other beliefs. Religion has always fascinated me. It is human nature to question; yet I know we must set aside the natural man. I believe the Bible to be the Word of God, as long as it is translated correctly, but I sure wish all Bible-reading religions translated it the same.

My last name is Terry
It’s much better than Terri.
I have a friend named Gary
Who is always bright and merry.
As we run through the prairie
We sometimes pick a berry
On our way to the dairy.
The owner is quite a fairy
He is really tall and hairy.
His wife’s name is Cheri
She is short and very scary.
I think she’ll soon remarry
To her new boyfriend Larry
He’s a much bigger fairy
Than her current hubby Jerry.
Someday soon I’ll marry
Hopefully to my dear Harry
I’ll change my name to Mary
And call our daughter Carrie.
Then we’ll buy us a Canary
And name her Contrary
