Way to the Man's Heart through his LEFT ear?..pardon??


This article needs to be LEft out. You get a better result of whispering sweet nothing into a mans left ear? what about his right? If you whisper things into his right does that mean they will hate you and then break up with you? Or maybe thats just me????? damn it. Why didn't I choose the left ear....would my jokes have seen funnier? ughhh...


"if you're thinking of asking your beloved to marry you, make sure that you utter your declaration of love into his or her left ear; it may increase your chances of hearing a heart-lifting “yes”. New research suggests that declarations of love, jokes, or words of anger are best remembered when they are heard through the left ear, while instructions, directions and non-emotional messages have more impact on the right side."

WHISPERING SWEET NOTHINGS

Loving words - and angry ones - are likely to have the biggest impact through the left ear. The research at Sam Houston University of America, based on 1,120 people, showed that the subjects were able to recall more emotional words connected with love and anger when they were delivered though the left ear. When emotional words were presented in the left ear, the percentage of recall accuracy was 69 per cent compared with 56 per cent for the right ear.

Sad Person's Check List

OK, I did not create this list, I found it in a book I was reading.....but it's funny and I want to share.

"Overindulgence, like a great art is in the eye of the beholder. In other words, how can you tell if you are really pushing the envelope on what's safe and what's not? Give yourself 5 points for every statement that rings true"

Here is the test: (red answers mine)

1. When someone yells, "Hey, Boozebag!" you automatically turn around. True probably goes for all my friends
2. The guy you buy your pot from considers you family. False.
3. You are dating both Ben and Jerry. True They are both sweet.
4. The shopping mall has named a wing after you. False.
5. Jack Daniel's has offered you a sponsorship. False. Lisa:TRUE
6.You hear yourself say things like " I don't know, I think clowns are kind of sexy". I've probably said something like this before....tralse?
7. The guy you buy pot from wants to get married. False
8. Domino's has your name on speed dial! False
9. You've taken up smoking to kill the time between eating and drinking. False
10. The guy you buy your pot from thinks you should get your shit together. False

"if you've scored even five points, you've got problems". Phef, I passed in my eyes.

Pirate Pub Crawl 2008 -St.Croix Part 2

Anytime you decide to go to a tropical island it is only necessary to bring goodies! On the second visit to St. Croix, I brought only the essentials: Personalized foam puffy painted pirate hats, puffy painted beer cuzzi's, 2 pairs of "dangerous" flip flops, and bathing suits. Not only did I know the hats would be adored by the local islanders, but would be used very gracefully at bars.







Island Essentials + Booze= Pirate Pub Crawl 2008

Captain Smitty , Commedore Greens, First Mate Jack made their voyage (in a car mind you) to the open sea of bars, beaches, bananzas ...

Tom Hanksfrom Castaway decided to join our pubcrawl and I decided to shimmy . Captain Smitty just kept making it happen. HI Bootz you made the BLOG! Every pirate found their own adventure. Lisa brought out the hook of death.






















Hog Size Bacon- St. Croix Part 1.

1000lb princess pig. You'd have bacon for days, months, years...

Ew, that title sounds gross, but seriously....I ventured back to the Croix. This time I brought a friend and was able to see the Enormous pigs that crush a can of beer in seconds kinda like frat boys do except they aren't 1000 lb hogs or wait...

Norma's in the rain forest was happy to have us once again. She's a peach!

After a few cocktails we ventured off to feed the lil piggies except they were super sized and in the earliest of mornings Lisa Marie Greens did indicate that I resemble one of these piggys....... Needless to say I was scared out of my mind even though I was heavily intoxicated. All that was asked when giving the pigs beer, was to gently put it in the pigs mouth so it wont hurt their teeth. I am pretty sure what I heard was "throw the beer can in the pigs mouth as hard as you can and have it bounce of a tooth" so that is what I did to the lil pumpkin.


Then I found this picture online...if a 3 year old can give a pig a beer, then I must tear. But I do know Captain Smitty held me just like that...haha and I did have a toy in my hand too!









A Proper Pedestrian


Walking around downtown Detroit has made me realize a few things about crossing streets


1. "Get off my party line"- I realized I HATE when strangers are walking at the same pace as me. Like when you were little and were swinging and if someone was swinging at your level they were chirped at by saying "get off my party line"...well that's how I feel about walking. Once someone is directly in line with me...I start to pick up the speed and I leave them in my dust or shit gets awkward.


2. "You're only cool if you cross before the crossing signs"- OK, traffic control has made crossing signs because they are there to protect you from wild cars flying through green, red, yellow lights. Well in that case...if there are still cars coming and you start to walk on Orange Hand, does that mean you are the coolest person at the stop light? the rebel with out a cause?There was no reason for me to get glares today as I waited properly for a friendly white cross signal. All I know is, me and the "cool/rebel" kid got to the same point at the same time and I waited.


3. "If the lil guy glows, Im going"- Heaven help me the day I get hit by a car when I cross on one of those friendly white crossing signals that I was talking about before. If the lil guy glows, Im going. Hello people I'm a White Pedestrian!!!!



Are vehicles required to stop for pedestrians?
Drivers must yield to pedestrians at unsignalized crosswalks, at traffic-control signals that are not in operation, or when making a turn at traffic-control signals when pedestrians have the "walk" signal. However, pedestrians must yield to vehicles under the following situations: at any unmarked crossing, at unsignalized crosswalks when vehicles are too close to yield safely, and at traffic-control signals when the "do not walk" signal is illuminated.
