Hahaha! This is one of the funniest lists I've ever seen!
too funny!
Funny? No, no your too much. ***blush***
Thanks for the laughs!!
And, yeah, that's a great image Carl chose! I'm feeling very anti-join, right now, still coming off my month of writing and feeling flattened but watch out in January! I think I've already signed up for 3 challenges (including my own, for which I still don't have a cute button . . . hmm, how's that friend of yours doing?).
I can check it out... he has exams but next week is free for the holidays.
I was gonna sign up for 2 others but then desided against it... I took one and will do it with a bang. The others... I cant make promises right now. Too many good book to be making lists.
Hilarious! Great ideas all!
Loved this list!
This is just such a fantastic list. Hugely entertaining!
