Knowledge and Chuckles-What a Recipe


Good Evening to All!

This and That


First on the agenda of my blog tonight is the answers to last night's Bible Challenge. I don't know how many of you participated, but I hope those of you who did, did well on it. By the way, I learned something during this Challenge. A behemoth is an animal, according to Webster's dictionary like a hippopotamus, but according to my reference guide in my Bible, it is like a dinosaur. Another definition from Webster says it is any grotesque or monstrous creature. I keep getting the behemoth and the mammoth (from IceAge the movie) mixed up in my mind.
Now for the ANSWERS:

1. a) behemoth (Job 40:15-17)
2. b) Dan (Gen. 49:16-17)
3. b) quail (Ex. 16:11-13)
4. d) ostrich (Job 39:13-18)
5. c) horse (Job 39:19)
6. b) swine (Matt. 8:28-34)
7. c) a hen gathers her chicks ( Matt. 23:37)
8. True ( Mark 16:16-18)
9. b) scorpions (Luke 10:19)
10. c) goats (Matt. 25:32)

Inspirational Story from "especially for Moms"
"Things Learned from Children"

My question is "were these things learned from first-hand experience when the adults were children, or from their own children?"

1. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
2. A three-year-old is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
3. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, to spread paint on all four walls of a large room.
5. When using the ceiling fan as a baseball bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double or triple pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words, "Uh-0oh," at the same time, it's already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke and lots of it.
9. A six-year-old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a thirty-six year old man says they can only do it in the movies. A magnifying glass can start a fire, even on an overcast day.
10. Certain sized "Legos" will eventually pass through the digestive tract of a four-year-old.
11. Play-doh and microwave should Never be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue really is forever. And, yes, it does stick to fingers, tongues, ears, hair and toes as well as eyelids and eyebrows.
13, No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool, yo still can't walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCRs do not eject Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches even though TV commercials show that they do.
16. A king-sized waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2,000 square fott house to a depth of 4 inches.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise in a moving car, van, or SUV.
18. You probably do not want to know what that particular strange odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on ...as plastic toys do not like ovens very much. The same goes for microwaves or dishwashers or washing machines. Neither do vacuum cleaners like toys or coins or anyother kind of trinket.
20. The spin cycle on the washing machine does make worms dizzy.
21. Cats will always spit up twice their body weight when dizzy or upset or when hung by their tails.
22. Anything whispered between parents can be heard loudly spoken to the town gossip in church the next Sunday.
23. Dogs and cats don't like each other when thrown together in the same kennel.
24. Mommies and Daddies are not happy when stepping on "Legos" at night in the dark.

I just saw something disturbing I was looking for pictures to put on this post when lo and behold guess what I came across. A website called "Prank Space .com" On that site were listed quite a few of the anecdotes I mentioned above. I don't know which was written first my book or the website, but I hope you got some chuckles out of them just the same. Haha! I guess that's kind of like which came first the chicken or the egg?

Good Night to All and May God Bless! Somehow I must have accidentally deleted the my closing and signature. That's what I get for trying to correct and edit after it's been posted. Sorry everyone.

Sorry about that deleted comment. I messed up.

I missed out on the game. Well, not really. I just didn't want you to know how many of the answers I didn't know. :-)

These are great reminders of my own childhood with my little brother. Whooo-Whoooooo!
