Rockford, IL | Maybe some of us can help ya out a bit Master Po !! Ask you some questions we have been pondering.
After all you do seem to have some type of great answer for everything.
I'll start....
Do sheep shrink when it rains?
Where did the Great Lakes get thier names? I mean...I understand Lake Michigan. But what about all of the others?
Are you EVER gonna find a place to put your Hot Pocket?
Whats the second smallest state after Rhode Island?
Do they have cartoons in Canada? |

No, but they will if you toss them into the dryer afterwards.
Where did the Great Lakes get thier names? I mean...I understand Lake Michigan. But what about all of the others?
Huron - Came from the French word for the Indian tribes that inhabited the area. Legend has it it's a derogratory term
Superior - Named by a French explorer, apparently because it is superior to the other great lakes on the map, that is, the most northwesterly. Not sure I buy that one...
Erie - Named after the Indian tribe that lived there, who were in turn named for the Indian word meaning "long tail" for the feline cat tail they wore on their headdresses.
Ontario - Named for the Huron word that means "big lake."
Michigan - Chippewa word for "big lake."
Are you EVER gonna find a place to put your Hot Pocket?
Good question. My suggestion would be to leave it in the freezer. Yuck
Whats the second smallest state after Rhode Island?
Delaware. Third would be Connecticut.
Follow-up question: What state has the longest name?
Do they have cartoons in Canada?
Well, duh. Everyone knows the only thing the Canucks watch is hockey. |

Brighton, TN | I thought wrastling was adult cartoons.
Do sheep shrink when it rains? I dunno, never hung around long enough to find out. They smell like a dirty old carpet though.
Are you EVER gonna find a place to put your Hot Pocket? Every time I get it warm, my Teenager comes along and eats it. I agree also, not so tasty, but the teens love'em.
Looks like the other questions have been answered, please try again, with another set and I will see If I can get to them, first. |

And we watch football, 'eh? Pamila Anderson (a Canadian) was discovered when a cameraman zeroed in on her at a CFL game. And oh yeah, didn't Toronto win the World Series a few times? And Holy Cow! Don't forget about Lacrosse! |

Pitt Meadows, BC Canada | And another 'gotcha' for you Canadian bashers:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOP STORY T.O. woman named Rock Paper Scissors world champ
A Toronto woman walked away with thousands of dollars in prize money and "bragging rights" after being crowned the 2008 Yahoo! Rock Paper Scissors World Champion over the weekend. New Yahoo! Rock Paper Scissors World Champion Monica Martinez celebrated her win in Toronto after being awarded the championship trophy and a cheque for $10,000. (Yahoo! Canada)
Now THATS a 'Ranking Milestone'! (and of course, another post for me - Watch out, Po' ... )

Why did Jimmy crack corn? And why didn't anyone care?
On what side of a pollo are the most feathers? Perhaps a quiz......? Hopefully for Po only? Lets say you are driving a school bus. At the first of six stops you pick up seven children under twelve years old. Four boys and three girls. At the second of the six stops two boys get off the bus and nine children get on the bus. Five girls and four boys. Two of the boys are over twelve years old. At the third of the six stops four girls and one boy get off the bus and three children get on the bus. This time its two girls and one boy. The two girls are both eight years old. At the fourth of the six stops none of the children get off the bus. But seven children over five years old get on the bus. These seven children consist of four boys and three girls over six years old. At the fifth and almost final stop two boys over four years old and six girls get off the bus. And three boys get on the bus. At the sixth and final stop two children get off the bus. And eight boys over thirteen years old and four girls less than ten years old get on the bus.
What color are the school drivers eyes?

Hey P.O looks like everyones pullin for you.
I still think StarShip capt. should be the top rank.
If varyder wins maybe a name change from the bentley to the enterprise.

New Bohemia, VA | Okay, what's going on here? Number one this is the Tech Q&A and this post is waaaaaaay off base. I think it needs to be shut down immediately, no, removed immediately to include all frilious post counts. Do Net Racey, besides you, I only know one of one famous Canuck, and that is Paul Shaffer of late night fame. Plus, I did work with a North Carolina Canuck, and my brother married one and now lives down here. My wife and I are talking about taking a trip to Alaska, but I'm sure I would need a Canuck sponsor for safe passage. Since I have so many Canuck Connections, do you think you could talk with the prime minister to see if we can pass unimpeded? We promise to check guns at the border and pick them up on the way out. JAM, Miles, I want to report a misposted post. Will you please remove all evidence of this one? Sincerely, Captain Nemo, USS Nautilus

New Bohemia, VA | Okay, now I'm really confused. You mean to tell me that Sandman from Road Island is Pocopollo's alternate ego also? I thought Songfan, wait, Songfan, Sandman, Sandman, Songfan, I'm starting to see a connection here. It's a plot to overtake my posts in a single swoop. Combine all of Pillarladle's post with the alterego, and alternate ego's and you'll have a way whole bunch. Me sees whatsa up! Thanks Lattefunz! Where's my Bib? |

Brighton, TN | Well, I must start this by saying once work was done, I had to go home and really get busy. Dance class, fill up wife's mustang, grab rest of crew and go coach 6-10 year olds in soccer, get home fix some din din, baths, put to bed, grab laptop and make a few posts before bedtime, which I am so far past. 4:30 comes so friek'in early. See you in the AM. Congrats to the main dude varyder 13 posts away and I gave it a go. Otherwise, I'll finish in the morning just to go over the mark, kinda like VAryder in his miles, gotta keep going just to get there. Adios amigos, till tomorrow. |

Pitt Meadows, BC Canada | Well varyious, milestone zero is not far from my place. And Alaska is a mere skip and a jump north. So if you want to set a 'milestone' do it here, and it carries over into Alaska. And the bonus is, Po' doesn't get any if he don't come.
And in Kanada, carrying guns might warrent a tsk tsk and please pick them up on your way out - so don't worry bout that.
If ya come up this way, me and Co-pilot would be happy to put you up for a nite or two....
But your dancing buddy - well, he probably wouldn't do so well on our 'real' mountain roads. 'Cept maybe in a Hummer..... <grin>
Good luck to the First Starship Officer !

Brighton, TN | Yes, the tutu goes into the tour pak, I'm a little sensitive about being seen at the grocery store dressed in my best. However, they don't seem to make a good tutu for a grown man, I seem to have a problem with the big boy parts and embarrassing the adult female instructor who is like 18 or 19. Makes for a good time though! Last I heard they were trying to put me in a part where I could wear the chicken suit and not look like man with a stick when I make my big leap. Still working on the whole Sachey and pointey toes thing. The splits are absolutely killer on the man boys. But other than that, I LOVE IT! |
