I'm not sure that's true - I count 17-18 posts in the past 24 hours, not counting yours and this one. I think we were all just waiting for you to come back and defend the Jello... |

To quote Charlie Brown: (And Minstrel feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :))"Why is everybody always picking on me?"
I can't defend Jello, it's the weekend and my mind IS Jello! And anyway, why should I defend Jello, it's never told me what flavor it is!!!! :)
Ohh that reminds me, well actually the note next to me reminds me :) I bought my puppy a puppy toy and on the package it says: "This is NOT a toy" Now does that make sense or what? Sounds like they've been think like Jello to me! :)

Only in Nebrasqua :-)
That's a little like a radio ad for "hassle free no strings no gimmicks loans" I heard the other day, which ended with the guy saying, very rapidly and quietly, "some conditions apply".
But I must say I don't understand how a toy cannot be a toy, even when it's a puppy toy... |

I don't get that one either Minstrel, but then you know what they say....Life is to short to be funny...or is that Life is to funny to be short? I'm just short either way and it's not always funny. :)

This quote reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:
"I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards who haven't got the guts to bite people themselves."
I just wish I knew who said it. I also like:
"You're slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter." |

There are 548 peanuts in a 12-ounce jar of peanut butter, so that's pretty tough work to stampede thru them ;-)
Why don't blondes eat jello?
Because they can't figure out how to fit the two cups of water into that little package.

I thought that was Kool-aid? I've heard it both ways and it's just as funny, but then I like blonde jokes! :)

I don't know! I'm still trying to figure out who counted all those peanuts mentioned there above! Because in order to state that with some degree of tact, one would have to count the peanuts in numerous jars and determine an average.
Likewise I was wondering why a toy for a dog would be labeled "This is NOT a toy." You have to wonder how people find jobs doing such things. I mean really folks, somewhere out there in the world, there is Doggy Toy Engineer laughing his ass off over this one! He's sitting there saying "I just designed a toy that isn't a toy, and everyone's going to buy it thinking it is!" Then there is the marketing genius sitting back behind him saying, "Well that isn't a toy we must warn everyone and put "This is NOT a toy!" on this package containing a doggy toy." And, both of these people are still employed!!!
Speaking of which, Do you know what the all time ultimate greatest job in the world is? |

Because the turtle let the snail pick the 19th alphabetized racecar and then was helpless as he watched that S car go!!! |

Hi Wen,
that quote was from August Strindberg.
Another doggy sentiment...

PS. I've also got a recipe for uncooked jello if you really need it! ;-) |

You missed off my personal favourites:

On sleeping tablets Caution, may cause drowsiness
If you want a laugh at the expense of others I highly recommend http://www.darwinawards.com the award they give to the person that most benefitted the human gene pool by removing themselves from it. |
