Mel sent me this today. It is really very funny and you will pick up the dual message right away. Enjoy …
How Big is Your Wiener?
“How big is your wiener?” I actually said this to the girl at the food booth at Costco today. Let me explain …
My boss let me in on this game that he plays with his son a while back. The object is to get the other person to say or do something embarrassing in a public place. It’s like a dare.
For example, last time we were in Costco (Costco is a large membership only warehouse store that sells just about everything in bulk, for those of you not from around here) I dared him to ask the clerk to gift wrap the 6 cases of soda cans that we were buying for the youth picnic. He did it without batting an eye. On another occasion I dared a co-worker to tell the waiter at the Chinese restaurant that he had forgotten to bring our chips and salsa, he chickened out. The game goes back and forth like that and there is usually a bet attached.
Today at Costco I told my boss after completing his purchase of an umbrella, that I was going to make him ask if the umbrella worked in the snow as well as in the rain since it didn’t say anything about snow on the package. I chose not to use the dare because I wanted to think of something more embarrassing.
Costco has a food booth that sells Polish Dogs and Pizza slices and being near lunch time my boss says, “I’ll buy you lunch if you ask the girl how big her wieners are.” Heh … free lunch. No problem.
So I’m looking for dares that push the envelope without putting us at risk for arrest. If you have any ideas, or can tell me about a dare you once suffered or dealt out just leave me a comment below.
By the way, thanks for being patient with me during the long break from blogging. It has been a busy summer!

The Song in My Head #1
This happens so often I thought I might try to make it a feature on the site. I’m going to call it “the song in my head” and I’ll just post the lyrics to whatever song is currently stuck in my head so you can share in my misery … or joy … whatever.
Here’s the first one. It’s a catchy little ditty from Rod Stewart.
If I listened long enough to you
Id find a way to believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believeSomeone like you makes it hard to live without
Somebody else
Someone like you makes it easy to give
Never think about myselfIf I gave you time to change my mind
Id find a way just to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believeIf I listened long enough to you
Id find a way to believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believeSomeone like you makes it hard to live without
Somebody else
Someone like you makes it easy to give
Never think about myself

Moola
Here’s one of my recent distractions. Remember that old math “trick” with the penny where you ask grandpa to give you a penny today, two pennies tomorrow and continue doubling it every day? In a month you end up with over 10 million dollars.
I found a place willing to make this bet: Moola.com. They give you a penny to start out with and you get to play double or nothing games with other players until you either win enough to cash out, or lose it all and have to start over with a new penny. It’s kind of fun. If your interested click on one of the links and try it out.
Hey, it’s free …
