Tuesday Morning

This is going to be a long day at work...I live about a mile from the end of the runway of our local Air Force base.  Bless, their little pink hearts they were flying their planes until almost 2 am , when they come in to land, they are about 400 feet above my house.  So it was a short night.  I called out there at 1am and asked them when they were going to stop...I was desperate !  It's overcast and cool here today but the weather guy promises that sun is on the way.  I haven't bought a cute little sweater for "Summer cat" yet but I may have to do that.  (It's been suggested by one of my brunette friends) I got the following from friend Deb..it's the best I can do today.   Until next time.....Linda

In Honor of Stupid People

>> In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through
>> stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.

>>
>>          On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
>>          (That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)
>>
>>          On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No   purchase  necessary.   Details inside.
>>          (the shoplifter special?)

>>
>>          On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap."           (and that would be???....)
>>
>>
>>          On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost."        (but, it's just a suggestion.)
>>
>>
>>          On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn  upside down."           (well...duh, a bit late, huh!)
>>
>>          On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after  heating."          (and you thought?)
>>
>>          On packaging for a Rowenta iron -- "Do not iron clothes on  body."        (but wouldn't this save me time?)
>>
>>          On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car or  operate machinery after taking  this medication."
>>          (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those   bulldozers.)
>>
>>          On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."          (I'm taking this because?)

>>          On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use  only."        (as opposed to what?)
>>
>>          On a Japanese food processor -- "Not to be used for the other  use."        (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)
>>
>>          On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
>>          (talk about a news flash)
>>
>>          On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open  packet, eat nuts."        (Step 3: say what?)
>>
>>          On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does  not enable you to fly."
       (I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)
>>
>>          On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."     (Oh my Gosh was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
>>
>> Now that you've smiled at least once, it's your turn to spread the
> stupidity and send this to someone you want to bring a smile to (maybe even  chuckle)...

>>

I always wondered why they put`do not turn upside down` underneath the container!  They are very funny anyway   :-)
