Not all Newfies are Stupid!

A guy from Newfoundland is sitting at a bar in Mississauga and looks at his watch several times in the space of a few minutes.

The woman sitting nearby notices this and asks, ‘Is your date running late?’

‘No,’he replies, ‘I have this state-of-the-art watch. I was just testing it.’

The intrigued woman says, ‘A state-of-the-art watch? What’s so special about it?’

The Newfoundlander explains, ‘It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically.’

The lady says, ‘What’s it telling you now?’

Well, it says you’re not wearing any panties.’

The woman giggles and replies,

“Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!”

The Newfoundlander smirks, taps his watch and says,

‘Bloody thing’s running about an hour fast…. can I buy you a drink?!’

Software to Share Your Family Calendar

Over the past weekend, I was talking to Aimee, Margaret and Maria about the family calendar software that Lily and I started using a while back. Our kid’s schedules got so busy that it became virtually impossible to coordinate a calendar on paper. We still maintain a paper and whiteboard calendar for easy viewing on the fridge but cozi manages the conflicts and overlaps as well as providing a family journal, shopping lists, text messaging to your mobile phone and many more features.

Beanerman (Thanks For the Huge Laugh, Steve!)

Steve posted the You Tube link to this hilarious skit. I thought I would try to embed it into a post so you can play it without going to Youtube.
