What do woodchucks do with wood? That seems to be a good question but maybe not the best for mixed company. It may result in screaming oppossums or Jhawk getting hot flashes ...... :shock: \:D/


Well now that you've brought it up. Maybe you should explain to us how screaming oppossums and Jhawk's hot flashes are connected by woodchuck's chucked wood. Now I don't expect you to go into great detail. As you've said it is mixed company. But before today I would have thought the ony way Jhawks hot flashes and screaming oppossums could have been related, would have been if Jhawk, during a hot flash, was beating an oppossum with a broom and it started screaming.

I look forward to seeing how these two subjects are connected by woodchuck chucked wood. I know there's probably a lot of people out there they have doubts you can show the connection. But unike the others I have faith in your abilities.



Ok, if a woodchuck had some 'special wood' to chuck :wink: and there were no female woodchucks around another point of interest might be the local oppossum. That might result in a screaming oppossum if anything did, especially of the oppossum was not interested but the woodchuck really really was. Of course, all of this talk of "special wood" to be chucked could give J those hot flashes of "wood chucking" ... :shock: :wink: :wink:

Now would you like to discuss how pigs bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes? (Monty Python yet again)

That sounds almost as interesting as which came first, the chicken or the egg?

From an e-mail I received................



Why do you have to "put your two cents in".. But it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?

Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

What disease did cured ham actually have?

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway.

If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?

If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?

Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs!

If Wiley E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?

If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?


Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

That is what Kirk did in his Starfleet Acadamy exercise, but that involved changing the program. It is hard to change the program in life unless you have supernatural powers and then why not just prevent the need for the lifeboat?

I am with Xo.....I said it a long time ago in another thread......I would try to save both. In real life you always have choices.

So who's going to save the lifeboat? You can be floating with a baby and a dog in the sea, or safe and sound on a lifeboat. Of course you'll have to live with the the guilt of not saving the kid or Fido; but at least you'll be alive to do so.

Ok......

I better warn all.....I'm in a mischief mood. I suspect I'll be disagreeing about everything, just to do so. :twisted:

Sorry ahead of time.
