How Much Are You Worth?

Last week I participated in two quizzes from Mingle2.

I am 77% addicted to blogging and only 18% Geek.

Does that mean I am 82% Normal? Now, according to the Cadaver Calculator my dead body is worth $4,665.00. How much are you worth....DEAD?


$4665.00The Cadaver Calculator - Find out how much your body is worth.

The weekend is doing what it is supposed to do...End. I hope everyone had a wonderful one and come Monday morning we all will be working with sharper pencils. I plan to sharpen mine by reading and savoring the 164 Essential Tools for Online Success from Char of Essential Key Strokes. Thanks Char for re-posting these valuable Tools for Online Success.

Methaphors For Fun

I love metaphors and analogies and I would like to share some of my favorite accidental assaults upon the English language from Anguished English by Richard Lederer. It is Wednesday so we all need to laugh. Laughter is the best medicine for all of our needs.


It's time to grab the bull by the tail and look it in the eye.


Let dead dogs sleep.


When we get to that bridge, we'll jump.


I wouldn't be caught dead in that movie with a ten-foot pole.


The slowdown is accelerating.


Then there are the mangled headlines.


Grandmother of Eight Makes Hole In One


Doctor Testifies in Horse Suit


Eye Drops Off Shelf


Organ Festival Ends In Smashing Climax


Sisters Reunited After 18 Years in Checkout Counter


Some of these metaphors and headlines can also be good writing prompts.
