Christmas Gift


I got this tshirt for my brother for Christmas. Now i wish i got one for me!

Exact Change


Ok.... So i have a fiancee a lovely fiancee... anyway once you have been in a relationship for a while, or spend a bit of time with someone... sometimes their quirks.... can end up becoming your quirk.. and you find your self acting in a manner that they do even if at first you thought was strange or obsessive or even annoying. My fiance likes exact change. Say for example something cost $1.35 he will find that 35 c somewhere & i would also look for this change if i was in his company. So anyway doesnt matter if its not a neat note or bill the change search is on. I even asked him why does he do this... he says he just doesnt want to carry heavy coins but i think their is a deeper reason that has to do with a sense of eveness....
So anyway i have found myself competing in the even change ritual....even when i am sans fiancee. Its like a quest for even change so i can recieve an even amount of change... its annoying & a bit obsessive....
The funniest thing is now that when we are buying something together from a pack of gum to drive through its like a competition who can get the change out the fastest.... we both are digging through our coin purses like maniacs trying to find the right change..... i actually get nervous..and sweaty to find it..... should maybe work on this....
Ps; The coins are aussie... cause im aussie oy oy oy... aussie aussie aussie oy, oy, oy.. sorry got carried away

WHY DO WE SOMETIMES SHIVER AFTER URINATING?


Ok... im not strange and have no weird fetish or anuthing. But anyway i was in a car full of friends once & were talking about Why... You know why do your cheeks go red when you blush.... Why do you always fall over when your trying to be cool.. etc. So i ask why do we shiver sometimes after peeing? This was met with complete silence and denials of that never happening by all people in the car. Started to feel a little paranoid about so googled it for an answer i thought i would share with you all what i found on the topic...
When we urinate, we sometimes just shiver uncontrollably. This happens especially during winter. What causes that? When urine is kept in the bladder for some time, it maintains a certain heat. If urine is released, so does part of the heat. At this moment, you immediately feel a tinge of coldness. This reaction is quickly received by the nerves and transmitted to the skin and causes it to contract. Thereafter, you start to shiver uncontrollably.
So there science & everything. Just to confirm i dont remember the last time i shivered.... but it has happened... you are not alone!

I love ringo


Growing up i had the biggest crush on ringo starr.... im talking about the 90's man... not in the hey day... Anyway Ringo Starr was by far my favourite beatle. The big distinguishing nose. The heavylid eyes of deep blue... That cute little headroll as he would beat on his drums. You can tell alot about people by asking them who their favourite beatle is. John- You are idealist, probably have an interest in art and love avant garde. Paul -you are mainstreaming, souless, driven (never did like paul) George you appreciate the quiet thinker & Ringo- you have good taste & definatley quirky. (i think im biased). Where did Ringo as in aka richard starkey derive his stage name from... i read alot of beatle books in my teenage phase but dont recall this bit of trivia. Why ringo?
