Why are Tim Allen and Daniel Pearl Doppelgangers, and why do the Germans have a word for unrelated people who look like identifcal twins? Is that a common occurence in Germany?

“Gebco Insurance” must have the most incredibly gullible/stupid management. Whoever ok this stupid singing/dancing commercial for their crappy @ss local car insurance should be mocked. Maybe I should write them and email telling them that their stupid commercial has ensured that I will never do business with them-- wait that is too much work . . . .

If you were playing a game where each person had to think of a word or name that began and ended with the same letter, the person who had “a” would have a much easier task than he person who had “b”. “Z” would be easier in French, if you could think of a verb.

How come punctuation marks have no sound? Why don’t you pronounce them?

I am an intelligent hornball. Actually someone called me that today. So this isn’t _my_ random thought for today.

It would be “I really like my toes painted. I am going to get a peticure every week instead of every two weeks”.

I would really make an exceptionally good looking woman . . .

Bilirubin makes your shit brown (I think) . . .

I wonder if Pugsley (the wonder dog) is a virgin . . .

I wonder what would happen if I took some of these (so I posted about expired drugs in GQ).

I’m sure today is Thursday. Just because everyone keeps telling me its Friday doesn’t mean it isn’t Thursday.

and then

What if the colour I see as blue someone else sees as red and so on, then we would all be seeing the sky in different colours, but because the general consensus is that its blue thats what we call it even though we all see blue as a different colour?

Beelzebub starts and ends with the letter b. I miss my doll Cabbage. Those boys in kindergarten shouldn’t have laughed at her when I took her to school. So what if she wasn’t wearing any clothes? I like phthalo blue. A lot.

A new day, so a new thought to share:

" Yuppies. I’m not one. Young and professional, yes, but since there are no Urban areas in this state, I guess it’s Rural by default, though there’s not many farms either. YRP. Doesn’t roll off the tongue. If we add an ie to the end it sounds like a social disease…yrpies."
