MILITANTPLATYPUS

Written by Dorothy Cole

#10 Life is sexually transmitted.
#9 Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
#8 Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an
erection, make him a sandwich.
#7 Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a person to use
the Internet, and he won’t bother you for weeks.
#6 Some people are like a Slinky ….. not really good for anything, but
you still can’t help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.
#5 Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying
of nothing.
#4 All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to
criticism.
#3 Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars and a
substantial tax cut save you thirty cents?
#2 In the 60s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is
weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

AND THE #1 THOUGHT FOR 2007:

We know exactly where one cow with Mad-cow-disease is located among the
millions and millions of cows in America , but we haven’t got a clue as
to where thousands of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located.
Maybe we should put the Department of Agriculture in charge of
immigration.

In yet another odd variation of the Wednesday contest, I am pleased to present: Coffee density.

This week’s winner is wishiniisfishin, with 198 stores in a five mile radius!

Here are the contest rules:

1. The object of the game is to find the address in the world that has the highest density of Starbucks within a 5 mile radius.
2. Go to http://www.starbucks.com/retail/locator to perform your search
3. To be considered a valid entry, you must state the number of stores in a 5 mile radius, AND provide the resulting URL for verification.
4. If you happen to beat my density rating (which I have already found), I will throw in a magnet as well.

Put your guesses in the comments to win our fabulous prize (a militantplatypus sticker). You must be a registered user to enter.

Notice: I forgot to mention that comments won’t immediately appear since they contain links. Don’t fret though, they go into moderation, and I will release them in order (they get time-stamped).

Artnatomy is a great tool for people wanting to learn how to sketch faces. Of course, that is not what I use it for. I like to make up a phrase, and then see if I can get the face to reflect it. I call the one above: Who farted?
