'I come from a family where gravy is considered a beverage' Erma Bombeck
I am off tomorrow for Thanksgiving so I wanted to be sure and wish you Happy Bird Day today!! Here's a toast for you:May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!

"There are lots of people who will do things to someone else's sink or toilet that they'd never do to their own," he said. Here are some things you can do to avoid having to call a plumber on Friday. Hmmmm...throwing egg shells down a garbage disposal is the same as throwing a hand full of sand down there....OOPS!!

Grating jingles, DayGlo wardrobes, shrill child actors, cheesy dance montages. If you wanted annoying, you could find it in the TV-commercial breaks of the 1980s. But today, 21 years removed from that decade of regrettable advertising, a few spots from the era do manage to spark a glimmer of misty-eyed nostalgia. These are just ads that, for better or worse, made us smile in looking back at them - a glimpse of a simpler time when, occasionally, it wasn't so bad when Knight Rider went to commercial. Here are 21 Ads That Make You (Almost) Miss The 80's. Remember the Folgers Gold couple??
