Hide under the duvet until it's all over. Still, only 1hr 12mins to go...

Wait, what was that apocalyptic klonk above your head, it's not the roof falling in is it?

No, you're ok, it was just a fat sea gull landing on the loose chimney stack.

:har:

Yeah, it's good luck if it doesn't land on you! :doh:

Same day the British were wiped out at Islandlwana. Coincidence?

On this date Bob Keesham, Captain Kangaroo, died 10 years ago; age 76...the only man most of us really trusted...:Kaleun_Salute:

I never trusted him because he always had that shifty Mister Greenjeans hanging around. Not to mention his snobiness with the mentally handicapped Mister Moose and the mute Bunny Rabbit too. He seemed to have complete dis -R E S P E C T for his elders by always waking Grandfather Clock. I hear BR got a new gig whispering sweet nothings into the ear of Nelson Mandela's statue.:up: Which was heard muttering... "Could somebody get this little pecker out of my ear?"

And the cartoons just plain sucked, when the captain wasn't clowning around with the rest of the retards that is.

Who gave you the trivia calendar?:D

The man is a Hamms swillin' fountain of useless information BBY!:haha:

That's a symptom, not an excuse.:O:
