Well this should be interesting.

[Beamhead]

Well then for the good Lord's sake (and ours), get some sleep Man!

Now stop distracting me from my homework... I have 3 pages to write on the history of the American correctional system... due in 5 hours!

Too late for sleep until tonight now, and I could help but my take on it may cause a failing grade.

So get busy typing/writing.

Your take couldn't be any worse than what I got from my husband, my girlfriend (a probation officer for sex offenders) and a friend who worked in corrections back east for 18 years... the consensus amongst them is "bring back the guillotine!" ... ... and then the talk of showers...

Drat. Carefully monitoring all evening, and then missed out on the riddle because I was reading Tolkein to my kid! The irony is almost unbearable.

Congrats Beamhead and Lighthouse 1!

I meet the requirements. One NPN entry please

Do you know this test, where over 90% of people fail?

You get a form with lots of questions. The first sentence on that form is "First read the whole form, then answer the questions". The last sentence is "Now that you've read everything, answer question 13 ONLY"

By the time those over 90% read that last sentence, their form is already completely filled out...

No kits, no cats, no sacks and no wives. Just you.

2,042. They were walking faster than I was and they overtook me lol

[AnotherADDiction]

Oops

2,042. They were walking faster than I was and they overtook me lol

Not surprising - after taking all of those cats out of the sacks, they could be used in lieu of husky dogs to pull a pretty fast sled all the way to St. Ives. After all, that's a lot of felines.

I lost them! Argh!!

And Cosmo... you made me laugh!

Definitely people don´t read ALL the rules before posting. It was always like that, and it will be always like that... relax.

[AardvarkSagus]

I'm actually starting to find it humorous. How many have we had so far?

I always find these give-away threads funny. It's like seriously, are they doing it on purpose??? So not only do they not read the rules, they don't read any of the replies either I guess. I feel sorry but it gives me my laugh for the day.
