I'm reminded by something I used to say long time ago... Referring to the time I went to an eye doctor and he dilated my pupil. After that, I would go around and startle people by getting close and staring intently.

"RAAWK! I am the CAT. Beware of my all seeing sight!"

Heehee!

Watching a baseball game with my dad, and watching all the player spit every few minutes, I said, "You could water the field with all the spit they produce." My dad looked at me funny and said, "You come up with the wierdest things..."

Um. Wow. I just read the whole list and giggled my way through every single one. My brother stuck his head in three times to give me weird looks and shake his head in despair. That was hilarious!

These are all taken from the greatest movie that ever graced a screen!
Plan 9 from Outer Space!

"It's murder, and someone's responsible!"
"It's hard to find something when you don't know what you're looking for"
"Your stupid mind! Stupid!"
"They attacked a town; a small town, but still a town, full of people; People who died!"

If you enjoyed these highly intelligent quotes, I would encourage you to watch the 88 minute movie as soon as possible....

So I was watching TV today, and this is what the Channel 4 news ad said between programs:

"Bones found near a local river. Hear was police have to say about the disturbing find. And - find out if rain will ruin your weekend plans!"

Excuse me - what? Is rain more important than a possible murder case?

Well rain sort of lets plants grow and stuff so I guess in a larger sense it is. Besides you can't do anything about the murder but you can still change your weekend plans. Razz
