Robin needs

Silly meme, via. (With comments in parenthesis.)

Robin needs your help coming up with a hip/cool blog/domain name. (Uhm. No.)

A normal-sized adult robin needs about 40 calories a day. (Crikey!)

Robin needs to pay the ransom for King Richard’s release. (What? All on my own?)

Robin needs lots of cuddles and tender loving care. (Don’t we all?)

Robin needs to choose between a local college and an out-of-town college. (I seem to be leaving it a bit late.)

Robin Needs $600. (Certainly, I could find the use for that.)

Robin needs to find a new crush. (Eh. I’ll make do with the one I’ve got, thanks.)

Robin needs an address from Prolix. (Who or what is Prolix? And why do I need an address?)

Robin needs some help. (I think that’s pretty obvious, don’t you?)

Robin needs to go to school. (I don’t have time, as I also have to work.)

One of those was from this, which I will read at some point.

Tounge all in a twist?

I need to keep these somewhere:

Beginners:
Three witches watch three swatch watches. Which witch watch which swatch watch?

Intermediate:
Three switched witches watch three Swatch watch switches. Which switched witch watch which Swatch watch switch?

Expert:
Three swiss witch-bitches, which wished to be switched swiss witch-bitches, wish to watch three swiss Swatch watch switches. Which swiss witch-bitch witch wishes to be a switched swiss witch-bitch, wishes to watch which swiss Swatch watch switch?

Du vet

Når biler står “orginalt” parkert med blinkende lys, hvordan er det meningen at vi skal tolke lysene? Jeg leser dem slik: “Jeg vet at jeg står i veien, men siden jeg anser min tid for å være mer verdt enn din, driter jeg i det.”

Jeg tror det ville gjøre meg mer vennlig stemt om folk spilte dumme og lot som om de ikke forsto at de var i veien, faktisk…

1001 things

Mirthful

Through bookcrossing I found Heart on my sleeve and the 1001 Things blog.

I bought a book called ‘1001 places to see before you die’ and it struck me that we often have lists of ‘things to do’ but rarely celebrate things we’ve done….so, the lists of things we haven’t done get longer and longer and we forget how lucky we really are.

This is an exceedingly good idea, and one I’d like to copy. However, I need yet another blog like a hole in the head, so I will include the posts towards my 1001 things list in this blog, and simply tag them with the correct category.

Silly quiz

With a not entirely explicable result, but I’m not fussy today, so I’ll post it anyway.

You are ‘growing one’s own food’.

You are guided by two words: ‘Live simply.’ You
value quality over quantity in most things, and
you have little use for the materialism and
consumerism of modern culture. You know the
value of hard work and try to be
self-sufficient as much as possible, and what
you do you do well. Unfortunately, no man is
an island, and you cannot do everything
yourself. Your puritanical work ethic makes
makes people think that you are weird, and not
much fun. Your problem is that growing one’s
own food has been obsolete for a long time.

What obsolete skill are you?

Heldigvis så jeg derfor ikke det nevnte programmet. Men jeg er lettet over å se at det ikke bare er meg som har problemer med Skavlands såkalte “intervjuer”.

Forøvrig anbefales man selvsagt å lese M hver dag.

Castles galore

Mirthful

I was trying to locate a castle in Wales – that is, I was trying to identify which castle we visited in 2001 because I’m using the pictures in a scrapbooking layout and thought it would be nice to have some specific details (though I think I’ll stick to the title “someplace in Wales” – I like the way it sounds). The point is I stumbled on this excellent webpage (excellent if you like that sort of thing – castles, I mean): Castles of Wales, and thought I’d better link to it, for your edification and my failing memory.
