Elephant's Child said...

Lots of smiles today.
My bladder is a very, very effective alarm. I am glad that it is able to wake me.

Mike said...

Cloudia - I identify with that one.

Sue - Same here.

Kirk said...

Aha!

Mike said...

Kirk - Did you know that? I sure didn't.

Bilbo said...

As it happens, I DO have a favorite cashier at the grocery store. It's me, because none of the cashiers that actually work there can bag groceries without damaging them.

Ole phat Stu said...

Those are not valid Roman Numerals.

Shaw Kenawe said...

This was a great way to start my Saturday morning while under 16 blankets.

-5 with windchill at -10 degrees.

Kathy G said...

Thanks for the giggles.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

Hahahahaha, joke #2 made me laugh out loud!

Mike said...

Bill - The union wants to talk to you. Not to make you stop, but to collect your dues.

Stu - Stu - Stu - 512, 153, 557. 😁

Shaw - We had that for one day just the other day. It's supposed to be in the 50s(f) all next week.

Kathy - Did you know about 123123?

Deb - I'm jealous. I haven't had a joke catch me by surprise like that in a while.

Anonymous said...

123123 is only for USA

Mike said...

Anon - And Canada and Belize.
Also... The United States is one of the few countries that use “mm-dd-yyyy” as their date format–which is very very unique! The day is written first and the year last in most countries (dd-mm-yyyy) and some nations, such as Iran, Korea, and China, write the year first and the day last (yyyy-mm-dd). But why did Americans choose to write the month first? One of the hypotheses is that the United States borrowed the way it was written from the United Kingdom who used it before the 20th century and then later changed it to match Europe (dd-mm-yyyy). American colonists liked their original format and it’s been that way ever since.

The United States has a rather unique way of writing the date that is imitated in very few other countries (although Canada and Belize do also use the form). In America, the date is formally written in month/day/year form. Thus, “January 1, 2011” is widely considered to be correct. In formal usage, it is not appropriate to omit the year, or to use a purely numerical form of the date. For example, if you were to write a formal letter for business, you would write out the entire date, including the name of the month (January 1, 2011). Writing it out in full allows for the notation to be understood even by people for whom the month/day/year form is relatively uncommon.

As a matter of fact, I DID know about 123123. And re your missing comment on my blog there is nothing in spam.

Mike said...

Kathy - I probably forgot to hit the publish button.

River said...

Good ones, all of them.

Mike said...

River - Thanks.
