What did YOU learn today?

[Canadian Jayne]

Often, when the kids came home from school it ask,
What did you learn today?
Usually it was a mumble...
but you know learning everyday I think is a good thing.

Today I learned what the words

leno (reminded me of Jay Leno)
zeugma
and
mikvah

mean while playing scrabble
words can be quite interesting

[mysticwryter]

I learned:


I need to write a book either on Jim Carrey, a fictional story, or submit articles of fun to a local newspaper.

i finished reading a book about Tourettes syndrome........i learned how hard it is for the kids with it........on a lighter note i'm halfway through a book called 'Oink' about a fmily who adopted 2 minipigs..........i had no idea you could get such teeny porkers......

[mysticwryter]

Fluffy, those pigs are adorable!!

My husband actually thought about getting one as our first pet. I would still name it Gizmo.

[fluffy]

if he reads 'Oink' he'll probably change his mind.........they're naughty wee horrors.......lol........(adorable though )

[Canadian Jayne]

I met someone at Kareoke who had Tourettes and every so ofter
some odd words would come out of his mouth but
he is an excellent singer, really good, very talented

[fluffy]

It's a hard condition for the kids.......often it goes undiagnosed for years and the kids are tagged as major behavioural problems........
Today i learned not to try and squash my size 6 feet into size 5.5 sandals........lol.........i was in friggin agony..........

[cotton]

Today I learned that Fluffy has 6 feet.

[fluffy]

lmao........the truths out there now..............

[mysticwryter]

I learned:

Doing pushups while you have sore muscles, hurt like crazy and you feel even weaker!!

[fluffy]

swimming's good when your muscles are sore..........

[Canadian Jayne]

That if someone wants to steal your bike they'll even cut
a link chain to do it, just because they can.
I hate not having my bike
Very irritating

[cotton]

Sorry to hear about you're bike being stolen

[fluffy]

awe that sucks CJ.......someone must have been going around with bolt cutters looking for bikes....... ......perhaps it will turn up at a car boot sale........

[Canadian Jayne]

I've learned...
I'm like my mom,
if her bus or car broke down
things just get turned up side down.

For me it's my bike,
no wheels = no life, things just fall apart

I have a back up bike but
it's so old they don't make the
tire tube anymore, and it has a flat.

Life sucks, life sucks (to the tune of "Love hurts)

I was thinking maybe someone on
Kijiji may have something
