Smile!

A friend, and fellow Mom, sent the via email, and I just had to laugh. Hopefully this will bring a smile to your day! (As a mom of two boys, I can relate!)

And you also find out interesting things when you have sons, like:

• A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep. 2.)

• If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

• A 3-year old boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

• If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42-pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room. 5.)

• You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

• The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

• When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late.

• Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

• A six-year-old boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.

• Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4- year-old Boy.

• Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.

• Super glue is forever.

• No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

• Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

• VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

• Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

• Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

• You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.

• Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.

• The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.

• The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.

• It will, however, make cats dizzy.

• Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

• 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.

• 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.
