Deep Thoughts
by Jack Handy. Some of the nicer thoughts:
- If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is
"God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell
him is "Probably because of something you did."
- Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first
instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what is I was an ant, and she fell on
me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.
- Maybe in order to understand
mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up
of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a
mystery, and that's why so is mankind.
Very mean yes. But oh so funny in that "I can't believe he said that"
way.
Did you know you can get 7 water guns for $5 nowdays? That's
less than a buck a gun. Because UF is such an awesome college, they not only
have a great academic program, they also own their very own lake that students can get
into for free. So I went there today with a bunch of people from the DDR team up
here, and had lunch and a huge water gun/water balloon fight, where I ended up
getting completely and totally soaked. I felt like a little kid again, and man
did I love it. I hate when I feel old, even though I'm only 18. I miss those
things that you could do as a kid and no one looked at you funny, cause you were
jsut a kid. I miss playing on the McDonalds playground, going down slides, and
watching Saturday morning cartoons. Well actually I still would watch Saturday
morning cartoons if they weren't on Saturday morning, I mean I don't usually get
up till 1 on the weekends. I'd watch Saturday afternoon cartoons, but do they
make those? Nooooooooo. Sometimes I think about how if I were like 8 years old
today, I'd be into those Razor scooters and watch Pepperann (I LOVE that show,
but I hardly ever catch it on TV) and there would just be so much stuff that I
dont' know about because I'm too old. But on hte other hand, if I was 8 years
old now, I'd have to deal with Power Rangers and Barney growing up, and I would
have missed out on Ninja Turtles, Transformers, and Pogs. And yes, somehow I
managed to go from water guns to pogs in one long rambeling paragraph.
For only $78 million, you too can have your very own luxury
submarine. Add weapons to it, and you might be able to create your very own
little floating country. Now wouldn't THAT be cool?
And finally, a guy got TCP/IP
and PPP to run on his Gameboy Advance, essentially turning the awesome
little gaming device into a webserver. Now you're playing with power! :) (5
bonus points and a cookie to everyone who recognizes that reference).
