    I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you are overweight and possess an IQ hovering somewhere in the 90’s.

    @ Joc ko: For the record I have an IQ of 125 and I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you are middle aged, lonely(not by choice) guy, who’s only way of feeling good about yourself is to put someone else down. Get a life (preferably off the internet)!

    I am going to go out on a limb here.

    Thats it, go out on a limb like I used to do as a kid. I read half of these and thought, hmmmm this is similar to what kids would say, and if more adults listened to the kid instead, we would all be better for it.

    Great list. Being grateful for the little things in life, let us deal with the big problems when they do come along.

    Noreen, wonderbra and Arkansas thundershowers I don’t really appreciate, don’t know noreen, never worn a bra in my life and don’t live anywhere near arkansas, but I will take your word on those. Substitute Brian, boxer shorts and BC storms and it works for me. And lets not forget the sparrows and stellar jays hopping through the cedars 1st thing in the morning, chirpy and cheerful.
