Well no I did not trip, 
In fact me and boo had a good time playing games and playing scare tactics around the house. My back was toast so it was limited but none the less. I also got in several games online and finished my legal challenge to the Ontario government.
Here's one for you:
A lady about seven months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed the man opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to another seat.
This time the smile turned into a grin, so she moved again. The man seemed
more amused. When on the fourth move, the man burst out laughing. She complained to the driver and had the man arrested.
The case came up in court. The judge asked the man what he had to say for himself. The man replied: "Well, your Honor, it was like this, When the lady
got on the bus, I couldn't help notice her condition. She sat under an advertising sign that said, "The Double Mint Twins are coming" and I had to smile.
Then she moved and sat under a sign that said, "Slogan's Liniment will reduce the swelling" and I had to grin. Then she placed herself under a
sign that said, "William's Big Stick Did the Trick" and I could hardly control myself.
BUT....when she moved the fourth time and sat under a sign that said, "Goodyear Rubber could have
prevented this accident" I laughed out loud.
CASE DISMISSED" said the Judge.

PICTURE ON THE NIGHT TABLE
After a long night of making love, he notices a photo of
another man on her nightstand by the bed.
He begins to worry.
"Is this your husband?" he nervously asks.
"No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him.
"Your boyfriend, then?" he continues.
"No, not at all," she says, nibbling away at his ear.
"Is it your dad or your brother?" he inquires, hoping to be reassured.
"No, no, no!!!" she answers.
"Well, who in the h*ll is he, then?" he demands.
"That's me before the surgery."

I forgot to mention, Ontario Canada has 400,000+ lakes, rivers and streams. 
The great lakes:
VOLUME
6 quadrillion gallons of fresh water; one-fifth of the world's fresh surface water (only the polar ice caps and Lake Baikal in Siberia contain more); 95 percent of the U.S. supply. Spread evenly across the continental U.S., the Great Lakes would submerge the country under about 9.5 feet of water.
TOTAL AREA
More than 94,000 square miles/244,000 square kilometres of water (larger than the states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire combined, or about 23 percent of the province of Ontario). About 295,000 square miles/767,000 square kilometres in the watershed (the area where all the rivers and streams drain into the lakes).
TOTAL COASTLINE
United States and Canada -- 10,900 mi/17,549 km (including connecting channels, mainland and islands). The Great Lakes shoreline is equal to almost 44 percent of the circumference of the earth, and Michigan's Great Lakes coast totals 3,288 mi/5,294 km, more coastline than any state but Alaska.

Has everyone seen this commercial?
quote:
There are no computer graphics or digital tricks in this film. Everything you see happened in real time exactly as you see it.
The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually very minor, didn't work. They would then have to set the whole thing up again. The crew spent weeks shooting night and day. The film cost six million dollars and took three months to complete, including a full year engineering the sequence. In addition, it's two minutes long, so every time Honda airs the film on British television, they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of us in clover for a lifetime. However, it is fast becoming the most downloaded advertisement in Internet history. Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in "free" viewings (Honda isn't paying a dime to have you watch this commercial!).
When the ad was pitched to senior executives, they signed off on it immediately without any hesitation, including the costs.
There are six and only six handmade Accords in the world. To the horror of Honda engineers, the film makers disassembled two of them to make the film. Everything you see in the film (aside from the walls, floor, ramp and complete Honda Accord) are parts from those two cars.
When the ad was shown to Honda executives, they liked it and commented on how amazing computer graphics have gotten. They fell off their chairs when they found out it was for real. Oh, and about those funky windshield wipers; on the new Accords, the wipers have water sensors and are designed to start doing their thing automatically as soon as the windshield becomes wet. It looks a bit weird in the commercial.
Just one second of computer generation is used to link the two halves...when an exhaust pipe rolls across the floor. At one point, three tires roll uphill because they have been weighted inside with bolts and screws.
Go to this website and watch the commercial....you won't believe it! |
