Why do sharks live in salt water?

Because pepper water makes them sneeze!

My niece told me that one over the weekend, and I'm still chuckling.

In other stuff...I'm not going to recap every stage of the Tour, because anybody who cares is already glued to the sites with the good Tour news. (I have some listed there on left, if you need to catch up.) The first week has had me saying "holy sh*t" an awful lot, from the doping through the crashes to today's news that Floyd Landis pretty much has no hip left. (I've known people with avascular necrosis, and it is seriously debilitating before the hip replacement...I can understand that being on the bike is probably about the most comfortable Landis is. I wonder how he can sleep though the pain, though.)

Since Sori isn't in the home run derby, I'm not payng much attention to the All-Star stuff until the actual game tomorrow, but I was anxiously awaiting the news from Stan Kasten about what the RFK makeover would include. I'm happy to see half smokes on the list.

In theory they are also going to improve the fan experience by giving the staff more customer service training. I must say, we've been to a lot of games already this year, and I haven't seen customer service as an issue. Really. The ushers, the concessionairres, the security guards, they've all been really friendly and helpful. (One game last week...probably the 4th, when it was so brutally hot...my ponytail band broke, so I went to the souvenir stand hoping to find a Nationals scrunchy. [I hate that word, but that's what people call 'em.] They don't sell them, but the vendor realized why I needed one [my hair must have looked awful] and offered me a regular rubber band. Little things like that have been the rule, not the exception.)

I did hear a rumor that spiffing up the stadium would involve painting Hondo's white seats, but that's gotta be crazy talk...Ted Lerner was a Senators fan, after all.

And to wrap up this random post, another joke:

One muffin turns to the other and says "Do you smell something?"

The other muffin says "Holy sh*t! A talking muffin!"

(Blame that one on Victor.)

Currently it seems like Wordpress is the preferred blogging platform out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you're using on your blog?

Thanks for the publish. My partner and i have usually noticed that a majority of people are desirous to lose weight simply because they wish to look slim and attractive. However, they do not constantly realize that there are additional benefits for you to losing weight in addition. Doctors declare that fat people are afflicted with a variety of illnesses that can be directly attributed to their particular excess weight. The good news is that people who definitely are overweight and also suffering from several diseases are able to reduce the severity of their own illnesses simply by losing weight. You'll be able to see a constant but notable improvement in health as soon as even a slight amount of fat loss is accomplished.
