I have something important to say.
When I lie on the couch in my office and look up at the ceiling, the ceiling fan looks exactly like the expression Bullwinkle the Moose would wear after being shoved out of a plane without a parachute as he plummets to his death.

9. A drinking game played around dice, LOL.
12 women, each hosts once a month all year long. You sit at tables of four each, roll three die. First roll is for ones, if you get 3 ones, you get a 3, if you get 2, you get a 2, etc., etc,. etc,

First table to get to 21 wins. If you roll three ones on the first game, it's called bunko. You continue with twos, threes, fours, etc.

It's not hard. Even I can do it, obviously.

10. Do you ever just look at one blade, on the ceiling fan, as it spins around...
until it looks like the fan is moving slowly?

Just one of the many fascinating ways I spend my free time. lol

Then I pull them out, and smell my fingers.

26. Jeez Midlo, you're scarin' half the people around here.
You know he'd never hit the ground. Rocky would save him in the nick of time. Everybody calm down. The moose will be okay.

The whole foundation of my childhood is in tatters here; I can not process the idea of Bullwinkle turning into bug-splat... :(

or something like that about serenity or whatever.

Series. It truly looks like Bullwinkle plummeting to his death. Either that, or I'm have a cerebral vascular accident.
