Posted March 10, 200322 yr comment_29236 For those of you who have kids past this age, this is hilarious.For those of you who have children this age, this is a warning.For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, TX.Things I have learned from my children (honest and no kidding):1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house with 4 inches of water.2. If you spray hairspray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.3. A 3 year-olds voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.4. If you hook a dogs 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 foot 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, and a ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.6. The glass in a window (even double pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words, "uh oh", it's already too late.8. Brake fluid mixed with Chlorox makes smoke, and lot's of it.9. A six-year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36 year-old man says they can only do it in the movies.10. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old.11. Play dough and the microwave should not be used in the same sentence.12. Super glue is forever.13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in the swimming pool you still can't walk on water.14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.15. VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials say they do.16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.17. Marbles in gas tank makes lots of noise while driving.18. You probably don't want to know what that odor is.19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.20. The fire department in Austin,TX has a 5-minute response time.21. The spin cycyle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.22. It will however make cats dizzy.23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.24. The mind of a 6-year old is wonderful... First grade, a true story...One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of the Three Little Pigs to her class. She came to the part of the story where the first pig was trying to accumulate the building materials for his home. She read, " And the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full of straw and said, "Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to build my house?"The teacher paused, then asked the class, "And what do you think the man said?"One little boy raised his hand and said, "I think he said..."Holy $^!#!, a talking pig!"The teacher was unable to teach for the next ten minutes.........

March 15, 200322 yr comment_29879 Hey no pick'in on engineers. I think that the clorox+brake fluid is really bad news. Doesn't that produce toxic gases? What was bad was when my brother who was in 5th grade(about a year ago) made my supposely broken car alarm work in unison with my brake lights. I came home wondering what in the world was going on and he came out laughing and said april fools(this was a year ago). Except I didn't find it too funny at the time, especially since i drove it to school like that.
