My daughter turned me on to them….her friend had them.  The next thing you know, I’m like a crazed person, playing Goobers Lab daily…….I’ve earned the prized Lava Lamp so many times she sends them to her friends now.  Now I’m into Home Before Dark!  Level 7 is my personal best.  I even got my own pet….the little poodle with the pink bow, we call her Trixy!  She looks like a Trixy!  C’mon, share…are you into your kids Webkinz?  Mitzi

Helpful tips!

I don’t know if this is all true or not but it seems like it would be worth a try, especially the bees part!   Thanks to my friend Rhonda for passing this along.  If you try any of them let me know!  Mitzi

Bounce This Along  

My mail carrier told me that the US Postal service sent out a message to

all letter carriers to put a sheet of Bounce in their uniform pockets to

keep yellow-jackets away.

Use them all the time when playing baseball and soccer. I use it when I am

working outside. It really works. The yellow jackets just veer around you.

1. All this time you’ve just been putting Bounce in the dryer!  It will

chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice.

2. Spread sheets around foundation areas, or in trailers, or cars that are

sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

3. It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don’t get opened

too often.

4. It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when

outdoors during mosquito season.

5. Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer) Screen.

6. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your

television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.

7. Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.

8. To freshen the air in your home - Place an individual sheet of Bounce in

a drawer or hang in the closet.

9. Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.

10. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a Sheet of

Bounce before beginning to sew.

11. Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside

empty luggage before storing.

12. To freshen the air in your car - Place a sheet of Bounce under the

front seat.

13. Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill

with water, let sit overnight, and sponge clean. The anti-static agent

apparently weakens the bond between the food and the pan.

14. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom

of the wastebasket.

15. Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will

magnetically attract all the loose hairs.

16. Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with

a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.

17. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce

will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.

18. Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce

at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.

19. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or

sneakers overnight.

20. Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees away.

21. Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before folding and

storing them. It will keep them smelling fresh.

22. Quick, bounce this on within the next 5 minutes! Nothing will happen if

you don’t, but your friends will be glad to hear these Hints.

Question!

Friday, April 25th, 2008

There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals, a Lion,
a Chimpanzee, a Giraffe, and a Squirrel, who pass by.  They decide to
compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.
 
Who do you guess will win?
 
Your answer will reflect your personality.
 
So think carefully . . . Try and answer within 30 seconds
 
Got your answer?
 
Now scroll down to see the analysis.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If your answer is:
 
 
Lion = you’re dull.
 
 
Chimpanzee = you’re a moron.
 
 
Giraffe = you’re a complete idiot.
 
 
Squirrel = you’re just hopelessly insane.
 
 
 
A COCONUT TREE DOESN’T HAVE BANANAS!
 
Obviously you’re stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax!
Try again next year.

 


I am insane!  I hope that you did better!  Mitzi

Teacher’s Pet

This is from my friend Pam, who has the BEST sense of humor!  Thanks Pam!  You seem to find a way to make me smile everyday!  Mitzi

Teacher’s Pet

On the last day of kindergarten, all the children brought presents for their teacher.

The florist’s son handed the teacher a gift. She shook it, held it up and said, “I bet it’s some flowers!”

“That’s right!” shouted the little boy.

Then the candy store owner’s daughter handed the teacher a gift. She held it up, shook it and said, “I bet I know what it is! It’s a box of candy!”

“That’s right!” shouted the little girl.

The next gift was from the liquor store owner’s son. The teacher held it up and saw that it was leaking. She touched a drop with her finger and tasted it.

“Is it wine?” she asked.

“No,” the boy answered. The teacher touched another drop to her tongue.

“Is it champagne?” she asked.

“No,” the boy answered.

“What is it?” she said.

“A puppy!”
