“Safety Vintage: People who stand on swivel chairs wind up in wheelchairs.”
There are more than one swivel chair in my house, and I’ve stood on both, numerous times, in order to change light bulbs. It’s not that hard, really. You just need to have a good sense of balance, keep your wits about you, and don’t make any sudden moves.
Oh ick! There’s a big spider up on the ceiling, right in that corner above my desk. I just know it’s gonna drop down on me when I least expect it! Hang on a sec- I just need to climb up on my swivel chair so I can kill it. Hang on…
Traditionally, (analog) clocks in adverts are displayed showing the time “10:10” (short hand pointing to the “10” and the minute hand toward the “2”). This is partly to fill the otherwise blank space of the plain clock face, but also to subliminally suggest a “happy face.”
Notice too, that her(?) legs are positioned in a similar “10 and 2” angle, the upward-pointing one appearing shorter, like the hour hand at the “10,” only offset by an hour and 5 minutes, more like “11:15.”
Why i always liked geometry.
I always carry a measuring tape too, but I’ve never had the opportunity to use it like that.
I’m not the most observant, but…”Teresa Burritt?” When did that happen? And why?
I can finally reveal my real name— it’s Joe Burritt….
I was mesmerized the first time I saw a picture of Teresa, and began an intense email relationship that evolved into our meeting .
for some reason, when she found out I was a multi billionaire, she became attracted to me and we were wed last week.
we are very happy but I can assure you most of the time I have idea what she is talking about…
Nighthawks, I can prove you’re lying. You gave it away when you said that most of the time you had an idea what she was talking about. I’m sure the multi-billionaire part is true though.

I don’t know Ziggy, but I would say things are looking up.

Frankly, Ziggy, I don’t give a d*mn. What I want to know is, why is it 1:50 o’clock?

Employing my Holmesian level of deduction, I can hear an old Tammy Wynette song. That and I can read…. I hope things will be better now Teresa.

How did Ziggy get here? Maybe he was downwind of the burning dog hair and toxic encrypted love slush.

Not sure about this “1:50,” though…

To me it looks like the longer leg with the “Spy vs. Spy” shoe is the origin point of Ziggy’s preregrination.
It doesn’t get me any closer to a solution.

No wonder you can’t find a bag of dog hair around here when you need one…

Maybe Teresa practices polyandry. It would solve a lot of problems around here.
Ray_C almost 15 years ago
A guy who would take part in polyandry would have to be a real Polyanna.

How did Ziggy get there? I think he just popped out!
grapfhics almost 15 years ago
to Ray C: is he being Candide?
Ray_C almost 15 years ago
grapfhics: Oh, you almost threw me there. Maybe you did! Are you referring to Candide as a “male Polyanna”?
