Ah, the return of Friday Funnies!
There’s one piece of classical music that just about everyone in the so-called developed world has heard at least once in their life: Pachelbel’s Canon in D.
Some people love it (I’m one of the ones who loves it played properly), others loathe it because it is one of the most overplayed pieces ever. Here is a great rant that put a smile on my face:
And, now if you’d like to hear a beautiful harp version, the real thing, I invite you to listen here. Beautifully done:

And this rock version that I’ve heard before that is …read more

This one may be a bit culturally insensitive but boy, did it make me laugh:
Siamese twins walk into a pub in Vancouver, B.C. and park themselves on a bar stool.
One of them says to the innkeeper, “Don’t mind us, we’re joined at the hip. I’m Joe, he’s Jim, we’ll have two Molson Canadian beers, draft please”
The innkeeper, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. “Been on holiday yet, boys?”
“Off to England next month,” says Joe. “We go to England every year, rent a car and drive for miles, don’t we, Jim?” …read more

For the word lovers:
1. A bicycle can’t stand alone because it is two-tired. 2. What’s the definition of a will? (It’s a dead giveaway). 3. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. 4. A backward poet writes inverse. 5. In democracy it’s your vote that counts; In feudalism, it’s yourcount that votes. 7. A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion. 8. If you don’t pay your exorcist you get repossessed. 9. With her marriage she got a new name and a dress.10. Show me a piano falling down a mine shaft and I’ll …read more

Friday Funnies took a break last week. I couldn’t find anything I wanted to put and I didn’t want to use LolCats yet again. Not that I have anything against them – I’m just looking for different things too. If you have any submissions for Friday Funnies, I’d love to know about them.
Anyway, here is this week’s Friday Funnies. This is more of a fun thing but it’s very interesting:

Thoughts for the weekend
Wouldn’t it be nice if whenever we messed up our life we could simply press ‘Ctr Alt Delete’ and start all over?
Just remember…if the world didn’t suck, we’d all fall off.
If raising children was going to be easy, it never would have started with something called labor!
Brain cells come and brain cells go, but fat cells live forever.
But Most Of All, Remember:
A Good Friend Is Like A Good Bra: Hard to Find, Supportive, Comfortable, And Always Close To Your Heart.

A Professor’s Nursery Rhyme – see if you can figure out what childhood nursery rhyme has been translated into academese:
A research team proceeded towards the apex of a natural geologicprotuberance, the purpose of their expedition being the procurement of a sample of fluid hydride of oxygen in a large vessel, the exact size ofwhich was unspecified.
One member of the team precipitously descended, sustaining severe damage to the upper cranial portion of his anatomical structure; subsequentlythe second member of the team performed a self-rotational translationoriented in the same direction taken by the first team member.
But in simple English what does …read more
