Pick your brain and save some pets

It is not a secret that I love puzzling. Not because I think it is such an awesome thing to do when you are bored, but more because every now and than it’s good to let those grey cells inside your skull work a bit. The older I get the more forgetful I am getting and I haven’t even hit the 30 yet!

Anyway, I found a great site that picks your brain and has a great reward for your correct answers. Every time you answer a trivia question correct Experience Project will donate a kibble to Rocket Dog Rescue & the Urban Cat Project. So not only are you giving your brain a nice work out, you are also saving some cats and dogs while doing it!

If you love playing Trivia or you just would like to earn some kibbles for shelter animals, click here to play.

Your ad could be here, right now.

Come to Australia!

When people ask me what it is like to live in Australia I always answer in one word: Great! Australia is beautiful; it has a dessert, big rocks in the middle of nowhere, beaches, wild life, tropical rain forest, the great barrier reef and so much more.

But whenever I get the question from some freeloaders (so called) friends if they can stay at my house while they come on holiday (for a free roof over their head, free meals, free tours through the area and whatever else they can think of to improve their holiday in Australia for free), I send them the video below as a reminder to how wonderful Australia really is!

Husbands for sale

A store that sells new husbands has just opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE!

There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs.

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 2 -These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

“That’s nice”, she thinks, “but I want more.”

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 -These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.

“Wow,” she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework

“Oh, mercy me!” she exclaims, “I can hardly stand it!”

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 5 -These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

PLEASE NOTE:

To avoid gender bias charges, the store’s owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.

The first floor has wives that love sex.

The second floor has wives that love sex and have money.

The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited
