Jabborwocky!

Yes, I'm doing another blogging challenge. I shall succeed this time! I promise you! The person I'm doing it with (yes, I have mentioned her before!) is Stephanie over at What's So Random. The challenge is you have to blog out your name (starting today!) I'm doing Jennifer so... today is J!

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood a while in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One two! One two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

This is the poem is by Lewis Carroll, even though Jabberwocky just actually means gibberish. Come to my arms, my beamish boy! Sound really creepy. So there is some literature for you. Just another hump day. Last Wednesday of the school year!

Big Bang Theory!

So, this is like my most recent obsession. A quick summary (for those of the blogging world that do not watch it as religiously as I do) it is about these four guys who are all like super nerds. Sheldon, a theoritical physicist with an IQ of 187, the uber geek that really sucks at telling sarcasm amoung many other things. Leonard, an experimental physicist with an IQ of 173, and probably the most level-headed of the group. He is the one that is always trying to have a relationship with women, and always fails. Oh and then there is this girl, Penny, who is the dumb blonde that hangs out with them because she gets free food. Anyway, if you still have no idea what the show is about, try watching it instead of trying to figure out what I just said =P

Now, quotes from the show! (Thanks to http://the-big-bang-theory.com/quotes/)

Howard: If it's "creepy" to use the Internet, military satellites, and robot aircraft to find a house full of gorgeous young models so I can drop in on them unexpected, then fine, I'm "creepy".
> this is the episode when Howard and Rajesh are trying to find the America's Top Model House

Sheldon: I made tea.
Leonard: I don't want tea.
Sheldon: I didn't make tea for you. This is my tea.
Leonard: Then why are you telling me?
Sheldon: It's a conversation starter.
Leonard: That's a lousy conversation starter.
Sheldon: Oh, is it? We're conversing. Checkmate.

Sheldon: Why are you crying?
Penny: Because I'm stupid!
Sheldon: That's no reason to cry. One cries because one is sad. For example, I cry because others are stupid, and that makes me sad.

Rajesh: Why so glum, chum?
Sheldon: Apparently you can't hack into a government supercomputer and then try to buy uranium without the Department of Homeland Security tattling to your mother.

Zack: Is that the laser? It's bitchin'.
Sheldon: Yes. In 1917, when Albert Einstein established the theoretic foundation for the laser in his paper "Zur Quantentheorie de Strahlung, his fondest hope was that the resultant device be bitchin'.
> In order to get this quote, you would have to know that Zack is Penny's stupid tough guy boyfriend

Sheldon: I am not crazy, my mother had me tested.
> I use this line a lot.

Penny: I give up. He's impossible!
Sheldon: I can't be impossible; I exist! I think what you meant to say is, 'I give up; he's improbable'.

Now, if you didn't find any of these funny, you need to go watch the show. Then come back, and then you can say none of these are funny. But you won't. Because that would be lying =) Thanx for reading!

Achoo!!!!

It's my first day of A-Z Blogger Challenge, and I'm so excited! Look! I even followed to A-Z part of the rule! So today is April Fool's Day (I guess I could have titled it that), but, I didn't get to play a trick on anyone today... =( I was tempted though! My dad always talks about how he saran wrapped one of his co-workers van.... It's so easy to! You just go up to the car with a buddy, and toss over, under, over, under. And than the can't get their door's open..... haha it wouold be sooooooooo funny! And I was determined today was going to be the day!!! I actually got Rosanne and walked around the highschool parking lot with a roll of saran wrap scoping out potential victims... but it IS spring break...

BUT

There was one teacher's car... (ok, I'm not a stalker, she has her name on her licence plate -_-) But we would have had an audience of druggies... so we chickened.


Now the real reason for my title..... drum roll please *du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du*

RANDOM FUN FACTS ABOUT SNEEZES!!!
(haha I even forgot I used to do random questions/facts on Fridays... and it's Fridays =D)

  • You can sneeze at up to 100 miles per hour >Wow!!! That's one speedy sneeze!
  • Iguanas sneeze the most often of all animals on Earth
  • You can spray saliva and other particles up to 5 feet during a sneeze > ewwwwww!
  • It is impossible to sneeze in your sleep
  • Sneezing too hard can fracture a rib > now I'm kind of scared of sneezing... =S
  • Suppressing a sneeze can cause a blood vessel in your head or neck to burst > "yes sir, I would rather have your millions of germs all over my hand than have you burst a blood vessel or something"
  • Saying "lamp" or "cucumber" repeatedly when feeling a sneeze coming can actually stop it > hmm...

Did you know there are things that can make you sneeze? Like, weird things? For me, it's Dentyne Ice Gym. Like, not stick gum, but the other kind, in the packages? I always sneeze. But only once! So bizarre. Anyway here are some of them:
  • Sunshine > This one is a little questionable... Really?
  • Plucking your eyebrows > Apparently it has something to do with hitting a nerve =)
  • Working out > Exercise? Makes you sneeze? Who knew.
  • Making Love > HAHAHAHAHA not that I would know... Must be kind of awkward "Just give me a minute, I feel a sneeze coming on!" Wow, I wonder why? Never mind, don't really want to know...
And that's all I got for today. Again, thanks for reading! Always appreciate! And, if you did know, this A-Z Bloggers thingy is everyday of April, excepts Sundays I post, each starting with a different letter in alphabetical order. Actually, the last four sentences all began with my letter of the day! (btw, I included a video for your entertainment!)


Look! I'm being all computer geeky!
