Watch the video. Go ahead, I dare you.
I should warn you, you’ll probably end up humming the dang tune all day.
Sorry, I should have warned you before I told you to watch.
Kristin at Dragondreamer’s Lair, a fellow Wordless Wednesday participant, gets the credit for finding this one.
One could say it was just an oops. Like the anchor who said “ass cream” instead of “ice cream.” That’s understandable.
But in my featured video, the guy (Ernie Anastos) tried explaining it away by admitting what he meant to say was, “Keep plucking that chicken.” But as this NY Times bit points out, what does that mean?
Ever find yourself at a loss for words when someone does something indescribably stupid? Maybe you’re just tired of using the same, old, plain-Jane words every day. I have the cure for you…
It’s Urban Dictionary. The Web site where you can go to find creative new ways to use words and, even better, write your own word definitions.
Some are funny. Some are dumb. Many use not-so-nice words in the definitions (don’t say I didn’t warn you!). Most are pretty creative.
Here’s today’s term of the day used in a sentence… Who needs or even wants flowers when you can get an enragement ring instead?

Here are some random other words used in a sentence…
That librarian had kanus breath.
I’ve been working at the same place for seven years and just got my third no-motion. My parents are really very embarrassed.

I hope Shan’s lucky enough to get a ghetto upgrade on her flight to Barcelona.
“Dude, did you read ToadMama’s blog today?”
Get the picture? Check it out. When you have absolutely nothing better to do of course.
However, I was at my doctor’s office yesterday. She told me about a paper she’d read in one of her journals that explained exactly how one can tell, without a doubt, if what ails them is the Swine Flu.
Wanna know how?
First, you need one of these.
Make sure there’s lots of light, too, ’cause you’ll have to look pretty closely.
Now, look in the mirror.
If you look like this, you’re screwed.
If you don’t look like this, you should be okay. I hope.
My Mom gets credit for e-mailing me this image, which I just had to share.
Every now and then I stumble across really cool stuff that I just have to share. Check out these pics.
I didn’t take any of them, but I thought they were interesting enough to share.
I hope you enjoy them.

This sign was on the back of one of those for-hire vans. Hubby, Eric and I were on our way to my parents’ house to pick them up for their party.
I think you’d find this way funnier had I gotten a picture showing the name of the business hand-painted on the side of the white van.
