Valentine’s Day – Got your Present? 🙂 Having trouble deciding on a gift for your Valentine? Flowers still usually work (for the ladies, anyway), though they may suffer from being ‘predictable’. And, chocolates are sometimes a mixed blessing for dieters! Bet you can’t guess what I’m suggesting! How about a nice PHOTO gift?! Unique – and you can’t go wrong. 🙂 There are photos ( 5×7’s, 8×10’s, matted or not), wall or desk calendars (still good for 11/12 of the year!), photo note cards, and so much more! Just contact me – soon! – and I can fix you up, and for a GREAT price (and free shipping)!
February PRIZE Opportunities We have TWO FUN EVENTS going this month – and each of them will offer prizes, including cash!! One is a Valentine’s Day VERSE contest and the other is a chance to make helpful AME-related suggestions. Check out February Fun Prize Events.
Cartoons -Far Side We continue our exploration of some of the old ‘classic’ cartoon strips. This week we feature The Far Side, whose humor is almost as off-beat as Herman. Once again, there are two strips. See Far Side 1 and Far Side 2. Again, the first one is one of my all-time favorites!!
Brain Teasers – Outside the Box A slightly different twist on a collection of Brain Teasers. No mathematics required, just thinking – probably of the ‘outside the box’ variety. These are such that you may instantly see (or know) the answer, or you may have to think long and hard – and come back later. Either way, I hope you have fun! See BTs.
Airbus Stunt – WOW! I just stumbled on to this. Last fall Airbus did a formation-flying stunt to promote its new Airbus 350. Imagine 5 Airbuses flying the same kind of formations that jet fighters do! It’s a COOL video. It runs 6 minutes, but if you don’t want to see the background, you can start at about 2:00 with the take-offs, and the flying formations start about 3:15. Neat stuff! See Airbus Stunt.
Riddles (and Answers!) Subscriber Joshua Walters (my favorite son-in-law!) sent this along last week, and it seems like fun. It’s called “18 Ridiculously Corny Riddles You Won’t Be Able to Solve” and the answers are provided for each riddle. So, rather than challenge you with these, I’ll just share them, and you can use them on someone else! I knew 2 or 3 of them – maybe you’ll do better! See Corny Riddles.
February Birthdays A feature we started last month – in fact last week. But sharing now will put us on a first-Monday-of-the-month schedule, which is better. See February Birthdays for our (known) subscriber birthdays this month. (If you haven’t shared your birthday, please consider letting me know what it is. You do not need to include year.)
