elephant dung & Jack Palance

Surprised to see those two together?
So this was pretty amusing.  For Father's Day, dad got stationary... made out of recycled elephant dung.  Ha!  So I went to go look at the maker's website, and on this page of elephant facts, it includes "Elephants produce 220 lb (100 kg) of dung & urinate about 15 gal. (60 L) everyday."  HOLY COW!  THAT'S BIGGER THAN ME!  So I went to find the video clip from City Slickers where Curly utters the immortal line "I crap bigger than you."  And I found, surprisingly, Jack Palance doing one-armed push ups!  Ha again!  I find that amusing.

The Jerk playing a banjo?  I'M ALL OVER THAT!  This is going to be so cool... I love that movie.

And next week, I'm playing disc golf with Jimmy Buffett & sailing with Barack Obama!  ;-)

that was cool...

So after class today, I went to my old hangout, Barley's ("... where everybody knows my name").  On the way through the dining  room to the restroom, I stopped cold and stared at a lady about my age sitting at a table I was passing.  "Pardon me, I have no idea who you are, but I know that I know you."  The fellow to her left says "Oh, hi there, Jeff."  Her: "You do know me.  I'm Allison P-----. <>  We went to Furman together."

THAT WAS 13 YEARS AGO!  HOT DIGGITY THINGS ARE (slowly) FILTERING BACK!

see if you pass the Jeff Knox IQ test...

... which is very simple.  Read one of these, and answer in one of these ways:
A) this makes total sense to me,
or
B) crackpots aren't pots that are broken-- they're human, sorta
