Crap

I'm writing this post because I do not know what else to write. If your not intrested in reading a pointless post, please stop reading right now...leave...go home...oh you're already home? okay fine leave your computer...you're still there? Alright then, if you're still reading I can see you're an a very adventurous person, or you're just bored.

So over the past year I've written about 30-40 posts (I don't really care to count). And sometimes I ask myself why am I doing this? I usually don't have very much to say anyways. What's the point of having a blog if you don't have anything to say? It has become more of an obligation that I must obey and have done so for about a year and it is driving me insane. So I have stopped writting for about a month or so and it's been great. No obligation, and no insanity. What a great way to live! Well now that I've gotten that off my chest, so long. Maybe I'll write again this week. Maybe in a year. Who knows.

P.S. Go Cougs

Good Old Reader's Digest

I was browsing the internet one day, and I decided to look up the reader's digest. There, I found a link titled "Our 50 funniest stories" Well I looked at it and as it turns out, the stories were actually really funny. I decided to post a few of my favorite ones. If you want to see the rest click here.

Watching a movie recently, I couldn't hear the dialogue over the chatter of the two women in front of me. Unable to bear it any longer, I tapped one of them on the shoulder. "Excuse me," I said. "I can't hear."
"I should hope not," she answered. "This is a private conversation."
 
My husband decided to install a light switch in our master bedroom. Cutting into the wall, he discovered a stash of bottles and boxes.
"Honey!" he called excitedly. "Come see what I found!"
I ran in and quickly realized that his next task would be to fix the hole he had made in the back of our medicine cabinet.
 
A friend and I were hitchhiking, but no one would stop. "Maybe it's our long hair," I joked. With that, my friend scrawled on a piece of cardboard: "Going to the barber's." Within seconds we had our ride.


Although desperate for work, I passed on a job that I'd found on an employment website. It was for a wastewater plant operator. Among the job requirements: "Must be able to swim."

Random Facts

In the past week, I've found a lot of random facts and pick-up lines. I decided to write a post on some of them. Enjoy!

The longest book title is 1,433 characters, or 290 words, and was written by Italy's Davide Ciliberti in July 2007. Click here to see it

In the United States, 2000 people receive major injuries a year from prying apart frozen food. Not even joking.

Police dogs are trained to react to commands in a foreign language; commonly German but more recently Hugarian.

Your odds of being killed by space debris are approximately 1 in 5 billion. Be careful. It's a dangerous world out there.

The town of Kennesaw, Georgia has required its citizens to own firearm and ammunition since 1982. Stay away!

I asked Chacha for some pick up lines: the first one I got said, "A dance tonight, an eternity tommorrow." They then said that pick-up lines are meant to be romantic, not funny.

Well, I wasn't really looking for any serious pick-up lines so I asked specifically for a funny one. They said this, "Don't be so picky...I wasn't! Good Luck Casanova!" Harsh, but funny.

And this is one of my favorites: Can I have your picture? (Why?) So I can show Santa what I want for Christmas!

By the way you guys, I don't see the resemblance between me and the monkey. I'll stare at it for 5 minutes if you want me to. Maybe if I squint...uh no. I think you need your eyes checked. I suggest you see an eye doctor...IMMEDIATELY!

Random, Pointless Post

And here's my random post of the month: my dedication to one of my favorite animals, greater and more powerful than all others except for the cougar.

Yep. There you have it. So since I'm excited for BYU football, I need to put a little blue in a post before the season. Here's some pretty cool facts about BYU and some of the players. By the way I got these from this site.

BYU has won 70% of its games since 1972. Based on a 13-game schedule, that's a solid 9 wins per season.

BYU Football has produced 4 of the 10 largest ESPN audiences in the program's history. I've heard this stat before, but it's still amazing.

Travis Bright benched 540 freaking pounds.

Di Luigi rushed for 2,159 yards as a senior in high school. His high school mascot was the Cougar.

Ray Feinga had over 70 knock-down blocks last season. Come for breakfast, because he makes pancakes.

For a white guy, Kellen Fowler has wheels. He runs a 4.47 second 40.

Spencer Hafoka averaged 24.6 yards per reception his senior season of high school. If you ain't haulin' in a long bomb, it ain't worth catchin'.

Justin Sorensen kicked a 62-yarder in high school. His once killed a man with his big toe.

Why I like Michael Phelps

So I was just browsing the web on what I could say about America's favorite Olympian. Obviously I could have said that he's considered one of the greatest athletes of all time. But that would've been a very short post and wouldn't serve this amazing swimmer justice. Then I read this. It's a post about Michael Phelps on someone's blog I found. I couldn't have said it better myself. So I am basically dedicating my post to this guy's post and pretty much his entire blog. I am seriously considering putting this random guy's blog on my blog list. Just from what I read, (Olympics, and everything else is BYU) it looks like a awesome blog. Anyways, I just wanted to dedicate a post to Michael Phelps and the random guy's blog. There you have it.

Crazy Life at the House

So first of all, after thinking about my lifeguarding rant, I decided that I could start a another whole lifeguarding rant. I was looking through the comments and I thought of a ton of other things I could say. I almost could have written a book with all the ideas that were poping up in my head. But I decided not to. Summer's almost over. Why complain? Just another two weeks and lifeguarding will be over.

So anyway, there has been a lot of crazy things going on at my house. These are just a couple.

So this is a picture of what used to be my pool. It is now a tangled ball. I wasn't there when the wind blew it over but it must been exciting to watch that thing blow over.
I don't know if you can tell what this is. If you didn't know, that is the bumper to the entire back of my dad's Toyota Camry. I wasn't there for this either but I guess he wasn't looking when he backed up his car and hit our broken down junk car which doesn't matter anyways. The saddest part is that with only one car to use, I have to ride my bike to work for the rest of summer. I'm not going to lie. Life's rough.
