Bathroom break saves neighbors

by

Neighbors of Renjis Empati, 57, of Borneo are very thankful, and some might say relieved, that he heeded natures call.

When Renjis walked outside to use his toilet he noticed that his kitchen was in the process of being swallowed by a sinkhole. He immediately called out to his neighbors and saved them just in the nick of time.

Said a grateful neighbor: “If it were not for him, most of us would be dead by now.” Approximately 100 neighbors were saved by Renjis Empati’s call to get out of their homes.






TV and Pets

Has your cat ever freaked out over something that’s been on TV?

I think it’s hilarious when you catch an animal watching TV. We used to have lizards – a big iguana and a few smaller water dragons and they would actually watch TV. We’d put nature shows on for them.

It was interesting when our iguana would see another iguana on TV. Very much like it is when a cat or dog notices another one of their species on TV.

I think cats are the best for watching TV though. It’s funny when they try to investigate behind the TV to see where the other cat or the bird went. Yes, I’ve seen it, they really do do this!

Do your pets do strange things when they notice the TV?

Binoculars as a gift?

by

I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out what kinds of gifts I could get my friends and family this coming Christmas. The idea of giving a pair of binoculars to a couple of these people occurred to me.

We’ve got really nosy neighbors … sometimes I think that I might as well give them a set of binoculars. Am I joking? Uh maybe, maybe not. They really are totally nosy. Why not make it easier for them to stare at us? They’re gonna do it anyway.

Nah, but I think my Uncle might find a pair of binoculars useful. He lives in an area where he can over see a beautiful park. He’s always telling us about the birds he sees- blue jays, cardinals, huge crows. You name it and he’s probably seen it. Yeah, I think I will get him a pair. He’s been great to us over the years and I think he’d use this gift and really enjoy it. Ok one down on the gift list. Muh hahahahah!

Hey, maybe I could do the same with my brother. He goes to a lot of baseball games and football games. What could be better than a pair of binoculars at a game? Yep, I think I nailed that one. Two down on the old gift list. I’m doing well aren’t I?

I have no idea what type I’d get for either of them though. There are so many brands and types of binoculars. I just went searching and I found a site that tells you how to buy binoculars. I think I might spend a bit of time there reading the information. Hopefully it will help me decide which type would be best for each of them. The site that I found that information on Opticsplanet.net also sells binoculars and offers free UPS shipping on orders over $29.95. I guess I’ll spend sometime looking at what they have to offer too.
