Face cream and 24 cans of Budweiser.

Humor March 24th, 2009

A husband and wife are shopping in their local Wal-Mart. The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in their cart.

- “What do you think you’re doing?” asks the wife.

- “They’re on sale, only $10 for 24 cans,” he replies.

- “Put them back, we can’t afford them,” demands the wife.

They carry on shopping. A few aisles further on along the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.

- “What do you think you’re doing?” asks the husband.

- “It’s my face cream. It makes me look beautiful,” replies the wife.

Her husband retorts:

- “So does 24 cans of Budweiser and its half the price.’”

Google – son of a bitch search.

Micro Blog, searches March 6th, 2009

Google has many uses, one of which being a spellchecker. But when a word has different spellings, whit different meanings, it is time to start experimenting with searching for the word in sentences.

This morning I was looking for the correct spelling of the plural of “son”. I was not sure if it was “sons” or “sones”. The first describes male offspring, the second apparently is: a unit measuring the loudness of sound as subjectively perceived, equal to a tone of 1 kilohertz at 40 decibels above the threshold where sounds become audible to the listener. Thank you Encarta. One of the pages in my search results was – What’s the plural of “Son of a Bitch”?!

I would answer #5, just because I find it hilarious. But I’m sure that many would choose the last answer ;)

A Dad Moment – Reading in English

AJ, Around the World, Humor, Micro Blog March 3rd, 2009

The following quote is from my desktop Dads calendar, given to me by my wife:

A Dad Moment

Ricky held his one-year-old daughter Emily in his lap. She was jabbering in baby talk as she flipped the pages of a picture book. Nearby, Ricky’s five-year-old son Tim said, “Dad, make her read it in English instead of Spanish.”.

I extremely enjoy listening to my son talking in his own language. It is fun, entertaining and animated – full of facial expressions and gestures. Moments like these are priceless, which only parents can appreciate for their true value and not just their comical relief.
