You're right. I do.

Eh. Whatever.
I can't smell anything, my nose has boycotted smelling.

Painting animals on planes.


Yanni.

Imagine you've just won your own private jet! WOOT! Even better, they're going to let you customize it! Of course you want them to paint an animal on the side (who wouldn't?), and they give you the following. Which do you choose?
Panda. No question.
A lynx. Cool name, weird ears!
A starfish. That makes sense, right?
An LOLcat! I LOVE THOSE!
A majestic elk. Perfection.
A hippo. Who doesn't want a flying hippo?
A shark. Because I'm ferocious like that.
A komodo dragon. Not as cool as a regular dragon, but close enough.
Forget animals, paint Yanni!

This is definitely the most important feature of any customized private jet. I don't know if I can make up my mind!

Dave Matthews is asking the questions here.

Dave Matthews Band asks, "Where are you going?"
Space. I'm the Rocket Man.
All the way to Reno.
Into the sunset... we will become silhouettes.
The Distance.
To a mad world.


Bonus points for those who can come up with the bands who sing the other song references!

Laughing to tears, a poll.


Laughing to Tears
Originally uploaded by ski_sarahjane
When was the last time you laughed to tears?
Two seconds before making this poll. (Ah, "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" how I miss you.)
Last week.
About a month ago.
A few months ago.
It's probably been a year.
Years ago.
I'm lame and have NEVER laughed to tears. (But by lame, I mean full of potential.)

I have probably laughed to tears during "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" at least 3 or 4 times in my life, let alone all the other times I've laughed to tears. I love it.

Three... two... folding chair... FIGHT!

A folding chair
Queen Latifah
Captain James T. Kirk


Yet another fight, but this one seems even more likely than the previous poll-fights. I really can't decide if Stephen will win with his sharp wit, or if Queen Latifah or Captain Kirk will make better use of the folding chair... quite the conundrum we've got here.

And now boys and girls, we'll search for a random word like, stitches, and answer the first question that I can find in the results... OUR QUESTION: I have a company owner looking for light blue and yellow knit Henley shirts for men. Is there such a shirt?
Yes
No
I believe henley shirts aren't allowed to come in light blue... too sky-like.
"I believe Alteril™ can help you sleep."

So, how about it? Do they exist?

Are you PT?

A kid on the playground from my childhood asks: Are you PT? (giggles)
Yes
No



If you said "Yes" then you're potty trained but you're a Pregnant Teacher, if you said no then you're not Potty Trained! LOSE, LOSE! (Well, of course, if any of you happen to BE a pregnant teacher, I guess it really isn't a Lose, but a serious win! If you could help me out and answer yes and then say, "TAKE THAT CHILDHOOD WORD-BULLY!"... I'd really appreciate it!)

Chesley Sullenberger... a kick-trash pilot!


Chesley Sullenberger
Originally uploaded by HELLO CHICAGO
If any of you don't remember, or never heard about it, Chesley Sullenberger was the pilot who successfully landed his plane full of passengers in the Hudson River after having lost power to BOTH of his engines from hitting a flock of birds this last January. No one died, the injuries weren't very severe, and he searched the plane to make sure everyone got out successfully. He did everything right. This all landed him in the Time 100 and has frequently branded him a hero. I know this poll isn't totally ridiculous, but answer it anyway!
The pilot Chesley B. Sullenberger, "Sully," is...
FO' REAL!
Kick-trash.
Awesome!
A great man that did his duty heroically.
A good guy.
The best of the Time 100 this year!

Exercise goals, too many or too few?


Don't Exercise Too Hard!
Originally uploaded by Legolam
On average, how many personal exercise goals do you set every year?
Exercise? I hardly remember how to spell it!
1-12, (New Year's/ New Month's Resolutions?)
12-52 It seems I set them more than once a month, or almost every week.
52-365 -- I need a new goal almost daily!
I don't set goals, other people set them when they see me! (By answering this, you make yourself instantly hated, just so you know.)


I thought of this, because I set a new exercise goal tonight. (To go along with at least 2 others that I already have.)
