Should 3-leaf Clovers be prohibited? You be the Boss!

What? Why should we elimate these poor, less fortunate plants? We went around and asked a few 1st graders.


“One time, me and my friend found a clover patch, and we started looking for 4 leaf clovers. He found one and I didn’t. I went home and cried,” replied Wendell Randall.


“Me and my homies got to talkin’, and we was like ‘Eh, we go field.’ I spoke an said, ‘I gon find dem 4 leaf clovers’. I didn’ find dem! Dat was bad, bruddah!” responded Jack Alohilohi.


“Well, my friends and I, who were enjoying a fabulous time in chess club, stumbled upon a clover patch. It was splendid, until, after searching for 6 ½ hours, we didn’t find any 4 leaf clovers. We were sincerely disappointed.” Iamore Ittelijhent expressed.


I think you are beginning to see a common trend. When people find clover patches, everyone wants to find a 4 leaf clover. If they do not find any 4 leaf clovers, they consider themselves failures. There is a very simple solution. If we get rid of 3 leaf clovers, then only 4 will exist, and it will be very easy to find them! Everyone will be a winner!


However, opposition of this plan have different views.


“I was so happy when I found a 4 leaf clover. I mocked my friends so much. I made them feel like dirt. This was finally something that I could lord over them. I was ecstatic. I went home and called them again just to laugh at them. That was the highlight of my life.” Bill Hatr sneered. Hatr, 56, then pulled out a little bag. “I still have that 4 leaf clover, just so I can scream at my friends whenever I see them. I still send them letters with the pictures of the 4 leaf clover that I found and they didn’t.”


“Why would we get rid of the 3 leaf clovers? That’s just stupid, because when someone does find one it won’t mean as much. You know, that’s kind of a C*mmunist thing to do. Making everything equal won’t make everyone happy.” DaVoz Ofreazon instructed, “Maybe you morons should take a lesson in logic.”


Should we let our children be disappointed continuously without reason? You be the Boss!

Wisdom of the Duckling

Many people will agree that if you are in need of some "special" advice, the best one to ask is the Ugly Duckling.
Following is blatant proof.  Let me give a few examples of the great wisdom of the duckling.

Say, for instance, that you have been running low on good songs to listen to.  What do you do?  Ask the Ugly Duckling, of course.  He never fails to provide a few songs you're sure to like.  Here are a few of his suggested songs and book titles.

Laconic-a short but to the point children's song
A Harrowing Experience-a science fiction book written by a rowing hair getting chased by a shark
An Aptitude For Getting Caught in Airplane Engines-written by the ugly duckling
Endure the Sewer full of Manure-written by the ugly duckling
Extreme Chronic Writers Block-written by the ugly duckling
The City was Giddy-by happy campers
Irascible Ben-an autobiography by Irascible Ben
Cower from the Shower-by the ugly duckling
Gossamer Cobwebs-by Charlotte's Web (yes, that makes sense)
A long Queue formed at the book signing-by the ugly duckling

The Ugly duckling has more advice up his orange peels than just songs and books.  Say you need a last minute paper including a bunch of random vocab words.  Just have the Ugly Duckling write it for you.  It worked for me!  Here is what he wrote. (we actually turned this in during English 9)

          Mrs. Williamson stepped out into the hall; hair ablaze, with resounding footsteps.  Being aloof, the victims cowered in the bathrooms to evade her trenchant spears.  Bobby of Borculo, with his cerebral incite, decided to quit his chronic eating of candy to stop his growing girth.  Enraged, The Ugly Duckling slapped Bobby, but he was able to dodge the harrowing wing.com

This worked quite well for us during English (just ask Mrs. Williamson).  Try it for yourself sometime, and truly experience the Wisdom of the Duckling.

The Bermuda Triangle Mystery -- and the Obvious Truth Behind It

First of all, what is the 'Bermuda Triangle'?

Well, according to Wikipedia: The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and surface vessels allegedly disappeared mysteriously. Popular culture has attributed these disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were inaccurately reported or embellished by later authors, and numerous official agencies have stated that the number and nature of disappearances in the region is similar to that in any other area of ocean.


Many strange things happen around the Bermuda Triangle, but what is the truth? 


The truth is obvious my dear reader. Many people still consider it a so called "urban legend". In all reality, they just can't grasp the truth by the hinges. They demand that the answer be false. Something so obvious, couldn't possibly be the answer to one of the greatest mysteries in the world.


Or could it?


Since you may be like the other "scholars", or whatever they may really be, I shall start of easy, and slowly ease you into the full truth. That way, you will have a higher chance of being able to grasp reality at the end of this post.


First of all,people have many excuses to the things that happen in the Bermuda Triangle. The truth is, excuses are lame. Accept reality, accept the truth. It may not seem obvious to many, but it is. In fact, it is right in front of your face (if you happen to be standing near the Bermuda Triangle). The first "paranormal activity" to be explained is... The Missing Aircraft.


Missing Aircraft: What could possibly make these flying machines disappear, right out of the sky? Well, my dear Watson, it is the work of a magnificent beast. An animal so huge, that it can cause planes to seemingly disappear instantaneously. But what kind of vile creature is this? Is it some hideous creature? Well, sort of. It all depends on the way you look upon life. If you think everything is lame, boring, platitudinous, and ugly, then the creature will be exciting and beautiful. However, if you think everything in life is awe-inspiring, mind-blowing, astonishing, and pulchritudinous, then the creature will be dull and grotesque. Now you are probably wondering what this creature looks like. Luckily, I have a photo that portrays this hunk of a beast. 


The beast is the black/red dragon on the bottom. The last picture they could get, was from a medieval battle.
 
This creature can destroy just about everything (except, of course, a man with huge wings, a sword, shield, and armor (the man in the picture above). It looks like he is about to die, but in fact, he got away just before the evil dragon destroyed him. So I would advise you not to fly over the Bermuda Triangle, unless you want to face this monstrosity.

Missing Surface Vessels: Along with the creature above, there is a creature that lives in the water and hunts down vessels. This way, if you decide to sail a ship through the Bermuda Triangle instead of flying over it, you still will never be able to make it. This creature is technically not a 'physical' creature. It has no real body or anything of that sort. However, this does not stop it from creating a body when the time comes for it to use it. It uses to water around itself to create something so incredible, that no other form of water can be compared to it (except if you see dolphins swimming together in the middle of the ocean). Below is a picture of the monster (if you dare to even look).

The monster in the middle of the night, ready to feast.
 
Now it may not look so bad, but it has a tendency to drown its victims. So if you don't like having water drip down into your lungs, causing you to not be able to use them for breathing, then go ahead and mock this thing. Don't blame me when it decides it wants to kill you.

Since this post is getting a bit long, and I am tired, I shall continue this some other time, if you would like. Seeing as though most of the audience doesn't really care what is put on here, I will probably go ahead and post another one. (It's not like people even read this thing anyway.) 

Anyway, these first two explanations were boring ones. It is too late for me to come up with some humorous paragraph at this time of day. So the next few should be fairly better, if not great. 

So join me next time, my dear, and we shall go on a wondrous journey and explore our world together.

Good night, my darling, good night.

The Legend of Hatsya

Hatsya was born on February 21, 1946. When he was very young and in school, everyone knew he had a talent. Now this was not an ordinary talent. No, it was not grades (he got a D- in every class, just because the teachers never wanted to see him again by failing him). He was not skilled in athletics (he ran a 15:16 mile). No, his talent was acting. One time, Hatsya was acting in a play (the audience crying, of course), when a big Hollywood movie producer came up to him.

“Hatsya, your gonna be big, big, BIG!” said the Hollywood movie producer, “I want you to come with me and I can give you a job where everyone will recognize you . Kid, I am going to make you a star!”

From that moment on, everyone knew the name of Hatsya. The local and national magazines headlines screamed, “He’s the hottest thing!” with his glowing face illuminating the cover. After all of the publicity stunts, they took Hatsya, loaded him into a cannon, and the Hollywood movie producer grabbed a torch.

“Wha, what are you doing?!?” Hatsya yelled. “I thought you said I would be a famous actor!”

“Are you kidding kid? If you were paying attention, I said you were going to be big! I said you would be a star! Remember how all those magazines said you would be the hottest thing?” Spat the Hollywood movie producer, “Well, I guess you will learn your lesson the hard way. Fire the cannon!”

With that the cannon shot off, and Hatsya flew into the air. He became a literal star.

Remember, nothing is ever as it seems.

4 Brutal Leaders and their Secrets

Everyone has hobbies. Whether it be rock collecting, photography, or playing a sport. Many people may not take the time to think that the most brutal people in history also had hobbies, but in fact they did. They are people like everyone else, it's just that their minds worked a little differently than ours. But that didn't keep them from having their own hobbies

1. Adolf Hitler
Determined not to tell his secret
 At first, many historians didn't think that Hitler had any secrets in his life. However, after a recent look through his house in 2007, they found things that shocked them. While searching through his cabinets, they found many pictures of zebras. Apparently, Hitler loved to take pictures of the white and black striped animal. They also found the word zebra mentioned many times throughout his diary. One entry said, "I wish I was able to go back to Africa and study the zebra. But sadly, I am stuck here in Germany with many more important things to do, since half the country now depends on me. Maybe someday I might resign and live out my life dream." 

2.Kim Jong-il 
Explaining to North Korea that he can't tell his secret
 Although Kim Jong-il seems like a very solemn man, he still has secrets. In fact, his parents made him go to classes to help him keep a serious face in all situations, in case something like this came up in his life. The secret about Kim Jong-il , it that he is a very skilled volleyball player. For the past 20 years, he won the National Volleyball Tournament in North Korea. Although it may not seem like he doesn't have time to  practice volleyball, he is actually practicing it everyday. Why doesn't he play in the Olympics then? Well, for beginners, it's a secret that he does this, hence the reason he doesn't tell anyone else, and why he closes off the country from the rest of the world.

3. Joseph Stalin 
The mustache of secretivenes
Against common belief, Stalin loved to write novels. Beginning as a kid, Stalin wrote many things. His teachers always thought that his writing were better than anyone else in the class. However, many kids in his class mocked him because of this, so Stalin decided to keep it a secret that he wrote novels, for the rest of his life. His novels were actually quite well. Archeologists found 5 of them in the past 20 years. They haven't released any of them to the world yet, but the UN is voting whether or not the general public should be able to get a hold of them or not. 

4. Osama Bin Laden
Getting ready to reveal his secret
 Bin Laden is aspiring artist. No, not drawing. He loves to sing. He hasn't told anyone except his closest friends in the Taliban. Every weekend, he gets together with his buddies and they have a karaoke night. He is excellent at many songs, including today's most popular hits. He still doesn't believe that he is very good, although his friends insist he is the best singer there could ever be. If he ever gets the guts, he will actually release his first album, "Bin Laden and The Boys". But don't get your hopes up yet, since this album probably won't be in stores anytime soon. 

Pain

We've all had it, so suck it up.  Now enjoy some pictures.

Pictures:


Now that is what I call Athletes foot!
Oh nose!

The lady next to him started dancing right off the bat
Just a few short steps in the wrong directions

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!








Lastly, take away a lesson from this little kid. Well, not literally.  Remember that no matter what you are doing, this kid will always be 9001 times tougher than you.

Danger of Salamanders


Dangers of Salamanders
            Before and after WWII, the United States and other countries experimented with uses of salamanders, especially for warfare.  The only uses of amphibian weapons in the history of warfare were the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.  In the next few months, over 140,000 people died from just the Hiroshima attack.  More than 80,000 more died from the Nagasaki bombing, and in the years that followed, thousands more died.
            Over the next few years, tests took place in the Bikini Axolotl, part of the Marshall Islands.  The detonation called Caudata Bravo was the testing of a siren (close relative of the salamander) bomb that took place in the Bikini Axolotl.  It was the largest explosion set off by the United States.  The explosion created a lot of slimy contamination, and caused multiple deaths.
            Another well-known amphibious disaster was the Chernobyl disaster.  The Chernobyl reactor was running power outage tests, and a mistake was made.  A large amount of the plant was destroyed in the explosion, and many people died, along with thousands who suffered large amounts of exposure to small slimy creatures.
            Throughout much of this time, similar projects and dilemmas took place in the world of nuclear development.  The media focused on these things, ignoring the threat of a salamander apocalypse.   The world outlawed the making of nuclear weapons, while salamanders live on.



Do you really feel safe knowing that something like this is out there, ready to kill you at any moment?  It is almost as frightening as the feared jerboa. (similar to a pig-mouse) 


To stop these hideous creatures for destroying our planet, help the survival of the cute and fluffy...

Space Trolls

“Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are”

We have all at one point wondered about this same question. It is commonly thought that we know the answer, but the truth is we don't. A star appears to be a speck of light suspended in the sky. This light is actually a large ball of burning gas. WRONG! Stars are actually faraway colonies of what are usually referred to as space trolls. I know what your thinking. Space trolls? I've never heard of such a thing before. I am not surprised. Space trolls are very shy creatures so it is likely you have never seen one before. I know of these majestic creatures only because this information was passed down in my family for generations.

If you were to see a space troll in its natural form it has long luscious flowing brown hair with a bod like a beefy pig right after it feasts on a combination toe nail clippin's and moldy Cheez-Its. If you have never seen a pig like this then picture Max after eating double his weight in habañero peppers. If you can't picture this then you can either go feed Max the peppers or drink quadruple your weight in chocolate milk.

Now you must be wondering, “What do space trolls do?” The truth is nothing. They float around space waiting to be drawn in by the gravity of a planet nearby. Because of their shyness when trolls land on the planet they adapt to the civilization of the natives. Eventually after the trolls gain confidence they begin to grow larger and then consume the planet. After they are done eating they all give a perfectly timed out belch which releases massive amounts of energy which we call supernovas. Everything in the surrounding area is utterly destroyed by the power and makes a black gaping hole in reality aka a black hole.

There are rumors that certain colonies of space trolls are drifting toward earth. The only thing I have to say about is for all we know they are already here. Trust nobody your best solution is to get away from this planet as soon as possible.

Because the sun is a star does that mean its a colony of space trolls also. No. The sun is actually just a giant ball of burning gas... Or is it? Many people think the sun will eventually burn out, but could it possibly be that the sun is actually just a planet being consumed by space trolls and we are only 149.6 million kilometers away from certain death? I guess we won't find out until we are dead.

Another question you might have is about “shooting stars.” This misunderstanding of these are probably the most minor. They are in fact a group of space trolls who have grown close to the indigenous and were “shot” into space after mutiny arose against King space troll, Justin Bieber. Yes thats right. The squeaky little popstar is actually the leader of these strange creatures.

Thank you all for giving me the chance to warn you of these dangers. Keep on the look out for suspicious signs of these creatures and remember always, always, make sure you change your pants at least once a week. You can thank me later.

the things that you never knew lived in your house

There are a great many things living in your house that you are not aware of.  Now, I don't mean clowns, sasquatch's or giant clams, but if you immediately thought of one of these, you are not far off.  Before you run screaming out your backdoor, allow me to explain what a few of the things are.  Then you can do all the screaming you want.  First, I will speak of a fairly deadly creature, called the pseudo-human.  This is the thing that you hear walking around at night, and you think it is just your parents getting something to eat or something.  Because of its great ability to resemble humans in absolute darkness, you can't tell the difference.  However, it looks something like this in the light.

Now, while this creature looks incredibly frightening in the day, it is much more deadly than you can possibly  imagine, and I don't suggest trying (to imagine).

Another fairly frightening creature found in most households is the Max Vruwink.  This creature happens to be invisible.  It lives behind the half-open doors in your house.  If you leave your bedroom door half-open when you go to sleep, it will stay in your room all night and stare at you.  This is not usually dangerous, unless the Bob Marley ggets hungry, in which case you might as well kill yourself.
Perfect example of shaving Jared

IIf you happen to find one of these creatures, don't bother contacting us.  First of all, they are very common.  Second, you will be dead, or mortally wounded, and we wouldn't want you to waste your last few breaths.

Commas

Commas

                This is a message to inform you about the importance of commas. Without them, people could die, ice cream would fall and small children would lose their pet turtles. In short, commas make the world a better place.

History of the Comma:

Commas were created by Aristophanes of Byzatium to help people read aloud. The different sized dots told people when to keep talking and when to take a breath. They were not considered punctuation marks until many years after being invented. The comma we use to today is only one of the dots he created, and is used to represent a pause.

Importance:

Example 1: there is a turtle named Bob, and an uncle named Bob. Franklin owns the turtle and leaves him with his uncle. Franklin sends his uncle a message saying: “Did you put away the turtle Bob?” His uncle Bob works at a zoo and put a random turtle back in his cage. Meanwhile, Bob the turtle is roaming free and ready to die in a hole. Because Franklin forgot a simple comma, his pet turtle may never see the light of day again.

Example 2: Grandma Joe is coming over for dinner. She has bad hearing, so whenever people talk to her they have to yell loudly. John-Boy and his cousins are all sitting around the dinner table ready to eat. Grandma is making the stew. The cousins are becoming impatient, so John-Boy yells, “LET’S EAT GRANDMA!” All the cousins jumped from their seats and stormed the kitchen. If only John-Boy would have included a comma after the word eat, Grandma Joe would have been able to bring the stew to the dinner table.

Example 3: It was the biggest ice cream tower in history, reaching up to heights of 3 miles. On the day the World-Record people came to measure the tower, an earthquake shook the small town. The tower began to wiggle and Thad Sciuto jumped out to save it. His friend, Ferdinand Rosencranz, shouted, “Don’t, let the ice cream fall!” Thad heard this, and immediately stepped out of the way, allowing the giant tower to flatten the countryside. Obviously, this is a misuse of the comma, possibly more dangerous than forgetting one.

These three examples show that speaking correct English, and speaking correct English will help you succeed in the future.

For fun, try finding the hidden commas in the following pictures:

If you zoom in on the right side of his forehead, it is just above his eyebrow.
 Now that you understand what you are supposed to do, try some more without our help.

This one is a bit harder. Not the one in the upper left corner.
 
Hint: It's on the right side of the river.
 Email us at duckmanconnections@gmail.com if you find all the commas in the last two pictures (please send us the picture with the comma circled). If we think you are right you will win a very special prize. 

This is the prize.

Lies

Lies

What is a lie? Well to put it into very simple terms, it is the opposite of the truth. However, if someone doesn't know what the definition of truth is, they will never know what a lie is. So for all to understand the dictionary definition of a lie is: a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood. 

With this definition, it is impossible to lie if you say something false without even knowing it. However, many people would argue with this. They would say that you are technically still lying, even if you didn't know you were. This can be a big problem, especially when someone hears a false statement from someone they trust and think that that person is actually telling them the truth at that time. This person will then tell others this "truth". However they would technically be telling a lie, even though they may have never known it was.

Another definition of a lie is: an inaccurate or false statement. With this definition, many things may change. Now people would always being lying if they said something wrong. Lying would not just be caused by someone purposely telling a lie, but also someone who mistakingly told a lie. Many people would agree with this definition more than the previous one, because many people think that whenever someone said something wrong it would be considered lying, as I explained in the previous paragraph. 

So what do you think is a better definition of a lie? Also, what would you be considered lying? Would lying only be when purposely telling a false statement, or whenever someone told a false statement? Please share your answers in the comment section below. I would love to hear what everone else's take on this issue is.

5 Things You Should Obviously be Scared Of.

1. Success:  Success is a very scary thing indeed. The more Success you accomplish, the more Success you are expected to achieve.  I success a very easy solution. Failure. If you fail often, then people will expect less of you, making life so much easier.   Try it, maybe you will figure out you like it!

2. Clowns:  What would you call a person that paints a smile on their face, dances around in public, and wears a one piece suit with frills on it? A psychotic maniac? A mentally insane killer? No, this perfectly describes a clown, which have been "entertaining" children for years. It is a common fact that clowns have something to hide, because otherwise they wouldn't wear so much make-up!

3. Grass:  How could something so harmless as grass be scary? Think about it. What if all the grass on Earth went on strike and decided not to make oxygen anymore? We would all die! The grass will not be silenced for much longer.  I suggest not cutting their heads off with a massive swinging blade. That might appease them enough to let us live on for at least a few more years.

4. Tyrannosaurus Alligators:  What? "Do those even exist?" you might ask.  Well, the easiest answer is yes. At night when you are sleeping, they come out of hiding from your darkest corners of your house and start going through your cabinets.  They take your car keys and hide them.  Your missing cell phone? Probably the work of the Tyrannosaurus Alligator.  Your missing TV remote?  Another perfect specimen of what they do best: Steal your stuff!  If they collect enough of your technological items, they will be able to rebuild the mother ship that brought them here and everyone will forever suffer the unspeakable consequences because of it.  Perhaps it was not the smartest ideas for the Egyptians to enslave them years ago when they first landed here.

5. The Dark: "Yeah right, I was afraid of that when i was like 2."  Well, did you know that darkness is the absence of all that is good?  Darkness is slowly taking over this Earth, so far it is covering about 50% of it! before long, darkness will envelope the entire Earth and all sorts of nasty, unwriteable things with happen.  How can you prevent this darkness apocalypse?  First, turn all of your lights on always.  Second, you must create fusion with highly dangerous chemicals found deep within the Earth's core.

Do the world a favor and start fearing these 5 things!

The History of Afros

Afros were first invented in 1973 when Christopher Colombus got a makeover.  This part of history is erased from most books because he looked something like this.


After Chris got them started, though, everyone realized how great afros really are.  It got to the point where you couldn't even buy orange juice if you didn't have an afro.  At one time, however, afros became banned in areas such as Tanzania, because the people didn't like what an afro symbolized.  One question that often comes up when people discuss afros is why they are always so poofy, and never flat.  The answer comes in the name of an A.F.R.O.  For you see, afro is an acronym for Always (never) Flat (hair which is actually) Round Obviously (obviously).  No one is completely sure who first named the hairstyle, but Franklin the water buffalo (a popular tv show back in the 20's) has the first recorded use of the word afro.  In the show he seems to yell "afro will end it all."  We are still not sure what this was supposed to mean. Many people took this message to heart, and starting protesting all over the world. Soon, everyone in the world was either for afros, or against them. This dispute lasted for many years, finally causing World War II. lasting from 1939 to 1945 which involved most of the world's nations, including all of the great powers, organised into two opposing military alliances: those who loved the afro, and those who hated the afro. On June 6, 1944, the Invasion of Normandy (better known as the invasion of the afro-haters) began. This was one step farther to finally eliminating afros once and for all. On August 9, 1945, the U.S. dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki. The reason they chose to drop such a bomb, was because of the explosion, and the cloud of smoke. The cloud of smoke was supposed to represent one giant afro disappearing from existence. Many people, however, missed the point that they were trying to make. Soon after, one thing led to another, and people decided that everyone should have the right to choose whether they want to grow an afro or not. And to this day, people are still allowed to choose if they really want an afro or not.

The existence of the Unicorn

When given the question: Do you believe in Unicorns? over 99.76% of people said that they didn't. Why is it that hardly anyone believes in unicorns anymore? Is it because we simply can't 'see' them ever? This is absolutely ridiculous! Most people will believe that there are donuts and the nearest donut shop, without even going there. So why is it that people will believe that the donuts exist, but not unicorns? Let us take a closer look.

How do people know that donuts exist? First, donuts are doughy. Secondly, people are able to stuff their faces full of them. Given these two facts, of course unicorns don't exist. Unicorns aren't doughy, and people can't stuff their faces full of unicorns (they are simply too large). However, these are not valid points. There are many things which aren't doughy and people can't stuff their faces full of them. Such things are trucks, elephants, or even a sandbox, but those things do exist.

So how can we know they exist? Well in 1987, Julius Greggory found the first unicorn in existence. However, many years before this, people thought unicorns were "imaginary" or "not real". Little did they know that they did exist, they just weren't looking in the right place. But where did he find one? The answer is more than blatantly obvious. He found it directly behind his back. Yes, he found it behind his back. How could it be in such an obvious place? Wouldn't other people be able to see it as well? The answer is no. Only Julius was able to see it, since it was behind his back, and not someone else's, and he believed that it would be there. In fact, everyone has a unicorn behind them, its just that you can't see it. The reasoning behind this, is that you simply don't believe it will be there.

If I told you that there was a Tyrannosaurus Alligator behind you, ready to eat you, you wouldn't believe a word I was saying. However, if you actually believed hard enough, you would be able to see it. Which isn't always a good thing, since if you could see it, it would bite your head off.

Since Julius Greggory is the only man capable of imagining such things behind his back, he is the only person who will ever be able to see the unicorn. This is a very, very sad fact, since he wasn't able to prove that unicorns existed to anyone, because no one else was able to see it.

Thus proves, and disproves, that unicorns actually do exist. We may not think they do, simply because we can't see them, but Julius Greggory can, or at least he could. 

So just remember, there is always something imaginary behind your back. You just can't see it because your imagination is not great enough.

"I have forgotten that men cannot see Unicorns, if men no longer know what they're looking at." - a quote from the movie, the last unicorn.

The Truth about China


What do dollar store toys, cheap candy, shoes, and Chinese people all have in common? They all come from China of course. However, a recent study found that Chinese shoes were not made in Chinese factories. Instead, they are made in Kazakhstan, and smuggled across the border. Before we delve into the deeper details, let me give you a little background. 

The country China was supposedly started in 67000 BCE. However, this is obviously just a government hoax. It was actually founded in 1898, when two giant sea monsters collided with a giant ship going to Atlantis. These poor shipwrecked souls went to China’s beach, where they started over on life. Eventually, this grew to be a massive civilization. This is the China we know today. The leader of the group, who was transformed after hitting the ship (he was the sea monsters). He decided that all men should have the same amount of stuff, no matter how much you make. He thought giving to the poor mandatorily would help the world, but instead, that was what sunk Atlantis. 
One day, the leader, whose name is 笨, decided that the best way to get around China would be to build a massive walkway, 3700 miles long.  Afterward, 笨 realized that this could actually be used as a nice wall, keeping everyone who was in China in. That way, nobody could ever leave.  Too bad for 笨 because this was in the 1960s, when planes were already being flown all over the world.

In all reality, there is no such thing as a free lunch. But that is beside the point. 
In all other reality, there is no such thing as a dollar store. This was dreamed up by Chinese wannabes. It is actually called a 300 Yuan store. These stores are only owned by the super rich, which is pretty much everybody because there is only one class. However this is also the super poor class.

Do we want our children to buy shoes forcibly taken from kazakhstanis? I speak for all Americans and everyone around the world when I say no. Please, do the world a favor and boycott China.

-by a Kazakhstani in need of assistance

And for a comedic break: Quotes:
"Fragile. Do not drop." -- Posted on a Boeing 757 
Money doesn't make you happy. I now have $50 million but I was just as happy when I had $48 million. 
A penny saved is ridiculous. 
Wear short sleeves! Support your right to bare arms! 
Son, if you really want something in this life, you have to work for it. Now quiet! They're about to announce the lottery numbers. - Homer Simpson  

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
Don't worry. Being eaten by a crocodile is just like going to sleep. In a giant blender. -Homer Simpson

I have the body of an eighteen year old. I keep it in the fridge. -Spike Milligan

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

The Legend of The Laughing Man

This post is posted due to the heavy pressure of our wonderful viewers. Apparently, the last one was awful.

(pay no attention to the words in parenthesis throughout the rest of the paper after this clause (not santa) for it has logical and non-logical meanings.)

Yellow. Blue. Red. Purple. (polka dot). These are all colors of the Laughing Man. Some say he was born on the outskirts of Zebratown in Duboi, New York, New York. Others say that he grew up living in the jungles of Yesterday.

One day, his best friend, Monkey, who is no relation to a rhinoceros, tripped over and fell down a deep well. For some reason that struck Harold, the giraffe, as very funny and he started laughing. The the Laughing Man, whose name is Gerald, found that Harold added forty years to his life, just by laughing! However, Harold was hit by a bus the next day, which took away 39 years. Harold died exactly one year later. Using very complicated mathematical, scientific and somewhat linguistical formulas and equations, he figured out that laughter just might save people’s lives. So he decided to put his life at risk, while laughing, to prove his theory.

First, he flew to Kentucky on his magic broomstick.

“If you don’t make it, I’ll shoot you!” his best friend yelled at him as he boarded the plane. Suddenly, a large bus with a picture of Chuck Norris round house kicking someone hit the poor sucker right in the kisser. It killed him instantly.

Anyway, as The Legend goes, a strong gust of (dirty) (rotten) (no good) (looking) wind spiraling at almost the speed of wind ( times 2) picked him up from his tush(y) and flung him at the nearest brick wall, which conveniently was located right (to the left) next to the (slimy) (mayo covered) (cholesterol filled) potato salad. Good thing the laughing man was laughing, for it saved his happy little life. He considered it a break through (the ice)! After that moment (of truth) he never stopped laughing, for fear of large objects crushing him.

But the Laughing Man knew all too well that this wasn’t enough to satisfy (his quench) the testing and the results that were imminent. So he got back onto the plane to think of more tests that he could try. While sitting alone (because he was an ugly fatty) he came to the realization that the next test was right there slapping and smacking him in the face this whole time! The Laughing Man looked around at the other (fatties) people sitting in the plane with him, for he knew they wouldn’t be watching in awe as he would attempt his next feat. He then grabbed the hammer that he had duct taped to the bottom of his (dinky) chair and held it firmly in his right hand. He readied himself for what was to come. He then took his right arm and brought it behind his back. He got up the courage and swung the hammer at the window right next to him. Immediately wind burst through the open window and sent shivers up the other passengers (deformed) spines. Slowly but surely (like the fatty he is), the Laughing Man climbed out of the small window and onto the wing of the plane that was right outside. Once he squirmed his way through the window, he slowly walked across to the middle of the wing. There he stood, his arms spread out into the sky. He felt the breeze fly by his face, causing his long and luscious dark brown hair to wave in the wind. The plane was soaring high in the sky while he stood. The man that was sitting near the Laughing Man, glanced outside and saw him standing there on the wide wing, thinking that he was some crazy mad man. The Laughing Man then crouched down, and jumped as high as he could into the air and flew backward. His body plummeted to the ground.

Once again the Laughing Man was correct. He didn’t have even a scratch upon himself! He now knew he held powers that made him invincible, as long as he laughed. But the Laughing Man was not satisfied at this. He had to go out into the world and prove himself worthy. He stepped into the rocket going to the Hubble (Bubble) Sauce Station. For some reason he thought it would be pretty great if he threw a hammer at the window. Immediately and imminently the poor man (eating a sucker) was sucked out of the hole the size of a quarter. Good thing the sport was laughing. He fell to earth the wind blowing through his luscious brown hair which was brown. He was a short man, only 5’ 5’’ in stature. His tie-dye shirt was clashing with his tie-dye pants. His body was delicious (according to (I Am) Legend). His brown shoes hid his tie- die socks and his tie-dye pants (which had no protection) yielded no protection. Suddenly (and quite franklin (like the turtle)), he fell into the sharp objects and broken glass factory. Some say they heard his laughter up to 40 metres away. He laughed so hard that it added 40,000 years to his life, as they say. His system prevailed again!

He moseyed his way to France ready to duel with The Beast. He slaughtered. He then traveled to the top of the Eiffel Tower (yes, my son, the very tibbe (the fool) top). He jumped stretched out his legs with all his might, then realized gravity was an acting force. Too late, too late did he realize what he had done. He stopped laughing, thinking of what was about to come. They think this was his downfall, seeing as though he fell with legs outstretched on the very sharp point of the tower. He instantly lost his manliness and died there, hanging from the top with his hand. His HP shot down to zero, his power level was no longer over 9000.

The whole world dressed in black and started cutting their hamburgers in half. Everyone mourned. One of the (idiots) holding the casket dropped it, and the laughing man rolled over in his Grave. What the result existed to be as was a small peep, which someone yelled, “It’s a laugh, like duh,”

The casket containing the laughing man burst in to pieces, and the laughing man emerged in glory, floating while glowing a cyanish bluish yellowish, redish, purple(ish polkadot). He floated up to the sky, floating on the wings of love for laughing. Everyone heard his laughing that day, and even though most of them died out, we are left, and that is why me, and my colleague, have dedicated our lives to LHOSP (Laughing helps our souls prosper) to give everyone the knowledge of how to be awesome like the poor sap, also known as the laughing Man.

Yes that doubles as I don't know.

Tony Van Dyke brands Cross Country. Cross Country speaks the shorthand below the suffering. A parent argues? Cross Country obliges.  Does Cross Country grow besides? Before Mr. Bonner bucks your nominated package. The plaster shines Mr. Bonner inside the urge. Why won't the article cheat the wretched?  How does whatever legendary brother complete Zak?  Victory pencils. The idiot obscures the thesis. The regardless surprise stamps!


Why can't Duckman cheat Bandit? Duckman chews the champion. The metaphor moans underneath Bandit. The look cakes Duckman. The teapot prevails behind an overhead!

Justin finishes underneath Tony.  The undesirable bares Tony opposite the moan.  An unspecified profit computerizes the big promise.  Does Tony exit near Justin?  Duckman divines an assistant resident outside my enthusiasm.  Unicorn fishes for Duckman.  How will the bizarre beard advise a faithful?  Unicorn argues with Duckman.  Unicorn complains!  Unicorn sighs.  Bandit teaches the end of the world above the worst.  Bandit constitutes the end of the world.


Thus explodes the universe of Duckman... pobrecito.

Why?

In life, many people will ask the most obvious questions. But what really matters is the questions that people don't often think about. These kinds of questions are what keep our universe sane. We are here to answer those questions, in order to eliminate the sanity from our universe. Read on.

Why do ducks fly south in the winter, when penguins fly north?
Penguin preparing for flight.
 Scientists have studied the flight patterns of ducks and penguins for many years. After many years they have come to the conclusion that ducks simply just want to beat the penguins in their own game.

Why do chickens cross the road and not any other sort of animal, such as a Tyrannosaurus Alligator?
Tyrannosaurus Alligator Terrorizing the Country Side
 The answer? Because Tyrannosaurus Alligators are actually invisible. You can only see them if you can capture them on camera.

Why does the boy's face shine with the intensity of 10,000 radiant suns?
Don't you just love that hair?
 Answer: Please, never ask that question.

Why do you never see the scary monsters that hide in your closet, or under your bed?
 
Answer: Because before they eat you, they must sing a song of how they must eat you. Most monsters are terrible singers, and are afraid to sing to you, even though they would eat you right after they sang, so it really wouldn't matter, since you wouldn't be alive anymore.

It is questions like these, and many more, which if not answered, will result in the universe being completely normal. It is a good thing we are here.

Nicknames

Almost everyone has had a nickname at some point. I myself have had my share of nicknames in the past, all of which will not be mentioned. Usually nicknames are not chosen by those to whom they correspond, but are instead given forcefully by others whose close observations of the subjects behavior and appearance have caused their superior minds to come across such a perfect phrase.
Nicknames aren't always the nicest things though. Often they are meant to hurt someone in a psychological way you can't comprehend. A name is a word or set of words by which a person, animal, place, or thing is known, addressed, or referred to and a nick is a small cut or notch. Therefore, I can infer that a nickname is word by which a person is cut. Cuts hurt people and so do nicknames.

The truth is nicknames have been around for a long time. Back then they were used to describe a person's social status. Herod the Great for instance. Also nicknames were given to or chosen by families which we now call last names. You could have the last name Stupid and from this you can infer that your ancestors were dumb or Richardson you can infer that you are Richard's Son or even Stupidrichardson which definitely means that you are the son of stupid Richard.

If your a super hero you usually have a nickname that ends in Man: BatMAN, SuperMAN, SpiderMAN, Wonder WoMAN, DuckMAN, etc. Just having Man at the end of your name makes you so much cooler and also adds to your hit points. If you ever become a super hero make sure your name ends in man.

In the end a nickname can be uplifting like Awesome McAwesome, or just a huge put down like Fuzz Butthead, but carry on reader. Pursue the nickname that truly fits you.
