TIDBITS
­
1) The humble aardvark is a mammal that burrows at night. It hails from Africa and is the only living species of the order Tublidentata. I’ll bet you didn’t know that last bit.
­
2) On the other hand, a medallion is a large medal or something resembling a large medal such as a wall panel. It can even be some dish that resembles a small medal, such as a pork medallions. Pork medallions can be eaten. Metal medallions cannot. Score one for pork medallions. Aardvarks don’t eat pork medallions. They eat ants. They burrow at night and we have come full circle.

Public Service Announcement – Online DMV Tests

Plate tectonics

My friend wanted to take the online DMV test. Her friend said it would be easier than driving to the DMV and taking the written driving test. So she plugged away on her cell phone at home. Off and on. For two days. And got nowhere slowly. The DMV’s test site was glacial when it worked. But mostly the test site stopped her cold, Often and early.

So she thought she’d use the computers at her library. Which was closed today. So we drove for 3o minutes to get to a library that was open. Logging on was a snap on the 13th attempt. She started the test, which stopped. For minutes on end. So. Many. Times. The stock market closed before she finished the test. From pillar to post, the test took her three hours. It took 30 minutes. So in total,  the online test took four hours*, which is officially slower than plate tectonics.

All in all, I have to say, I was unimpressed.

* = You could have six colonoscopies in that time.**

** = To be fair, the online DMV test is discernably more pleasant.

Now you know.

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Obliviousy

Sure, we often find ourselves in a situation where we’re unaware of something; being oblivious to things around us. Sometimes, we know we’re supposed to looking for something right in front of our face. In other instances, we ‘re unaware that we’re being unaware of something,

If only there existed a word to describe this scenario. There is, it’s:

Misheard Bible Verse

That is, if it’s heard correctly during the chuch readings.

Am I the only one, who when little, misheard “peace on” during a Christmas service to be “peas on?” This changed the meaning of the following verse and made the mysteries of the faith even more mysterious.

Here is the real verse:

“Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”

Luke 2:14

And here is what I heard.

The Great Latch Hook Project – Part 5

Yesterday was a horrible day as I hurt so much and couldn’t do anything. I am happy to say that I was able to take up latch hooking again today. I am about 42% done and am doing about 1.5 squares a minute. I am up to Charlie Brown’s belly button.

Here’s what it looks life:
