101/1001 (17)

In the excitement of sticking bits of paper to my son’s bedroom wall, I forgot to write this week’s update.

I completed one task:

• Get a bike.  I got one.

I have added two new tasks:

• Ride my bike twenty out of thirty days – I’m already behind on this task, but you can blame the relentless rain (the week just gone) and the wallpaper (the week to come).  When Spud comes back from Lancaster he will drag me out to ride with him, so I’ll start the count then.  I need the other ten days to allow my legs to remember they’re attached to me.

• Answer all comments received in one day with song lyrics – this popped into my head the other day when I wrote a comment that I’m sure came from a Showaddywaddy hit.  I’m looking forward to this one.  I think I won’t tell you when I’m doing it, and see if anyone notices.  I will use a variety of songs and artists and hope it will take a while for anyone to catch on.

I have adjusted a task:

• Not play on King.com for a total of 30 days has now become Not play on King.com for a total of 101 days.   I thought thirty days would be difficult to achieve in three years because I’m quite addicted, but you are all so generous with your comments (that need replying to) and so interesting in your blogs (that need commenting upon) that I find I have days when I just don’t have time to play.  Thank you for breaking me of my addiction to King.com.  Now I need a task that will cure my addiction to blogging.

Don’t forget to check the links on the right to see how the other 101ers are getting on.

Can a movie be better than the book it was based on?

Forrest Gump.

I rest my case.

And that’s all I have to say about that.

Is it possible to know someone too well?

If you know that someone picks their nose, doesn’t wash for days, has a bottom so active British Gas uses it for the smell they put in to let you know it’s a dangerous substance you’re using to cook your beefburgers, and you’re not married to them, then, yes.

When is it acceptable to kill things?

When it’s crawling up your arm and has more than two legs.

Joke 122

Why would the judge not allow the cast of Cats to sit in on the trial?

Because they were guilty of purrjury.
