Strange Question #1
This is the first of a new category/label "Strange Questions"
A lady read a book, turned the light out and went to sleep. In the morning, when she saw in the newspaper that a ship had sunk drowning all on board, she committed suicide. Why?
The answer will be in the comments section, so no peeking until you're ready to verify your answer or give up!
What Happened?
From the

What Happened?
At first I thought this was funny...
then I realized the awful truth of it.
Be sure to read all the way to the end!
Tax his land, Tax his bed, Tax the table at which he's fed.
Tax his tractor, Tax his mule, Teach him taxes are the rule.
Tax his cow, Tax his goat, Tax his pants, Tax his coat.
Tax his ties, Tax his shirt, Tax his work, Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco, Tax his drink, Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his cigars, Tax his beers, If he cries, then Tax his tears.
Tax his car, Tax his gas, find other ways to tax his ass
Tax all he has then let him know that you won't be done till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers, then tax him some more, tax him till he's good and sore.
Then tax his coffin, Tax his grave, Tax the sod in Which he's laid.
Put these words upon his tomb, "Taxes drove me to my doom..."
When he's gone, do not relax, it's time to apply the inheritance tax.

What happened?
And I still have to "press 1" for English
I hope this goes around world 10 times
No Pix to Nix
There aren't too many photos of me "out there" that I'd be ashamed of letting anyone see.
This is just about the most scandalous one I have ever have had taken of me.

A Masterpiece
You Are a Painting |
 You are a passionate person. You see the emotional undertones that others miss. Compared to other people, you are sentimental. You allow yourself to feel everything. Believe that art should capture the beauty and mood of a moment. The best art speaks to your heart. It makes you smile, dream, or even cry. |
I sometimes feel like a painting
Hanging crooked upon a wall
And people keep adjusting me
To make sure that I don't fall.
To some, I'm a colorful masterpiece
Others see shades of gray
My friends are those who stop and look
The rest just walk away.
I may not be a masterpiece
Hanging in a golden frame
I might not be a Rembrandt
But I'm an original, all the same!

England is Getting Shorter!
Don't know why that comes up that way; the length is referring to an old US ship, the USS England (named after a man, not the country)
At that rate, there will not be room but for a couple of soccer fields!
