What I Learned Today

@Gloria Mitchell @Beth Gallagher Okay....i'll tell you, only if you promise i get a " Dumbbell Award " .....When i'm typing, and see that i've made a mistake earlier on, i always deleted all till i got to my error, i learned to click where the error is, and or delete , and correct, and go back to where i left off, and continue. Told you it was dumb. Will wait for my " Dumbbell Award " ..

 

@Micki Pembroke At least you notice them BEFORE you post. Nothing worse than seeing a post you made 2 months ago with typo's and there is nothing you can do about it. Happens to me frequently.

I learned today, on DisneyPlus, that an elephant can hold EIGHT - 8 ounces of water in their trunk at one time. That is amazing.

 

@Bess Barber Thanks for keeping me company on that one. .

 

Look at that....Did something dumb again....clicked too many times. .

 

Well, I just made an uber error on another site and still haven't been able to delete it no matter what I do. Oh well.

 

Look on the bright side, younger people don't care what you do and older people won't remember by next week anyway.

 

Being a so called " Senior " gives us so many automatic excuses to use, without any further explanations........Life is good..

 

I learned a 10 year old mattress weighs twice as much as it did new due to dead skin cells and debris.

 

@Beth Gallagher It sounded like a song that should be on a Disney 'Mary Poppins Retires' movie.

 

It's from Monty Python's Life of Brian.

I learned that this verse was added for Prince Charles' 60th birthday...

We Are Most Amused version (Prince Charles's 60th birthday party, 2008)

"If Spamalot is hot
And you like it, or per'aps not
A bunch of knights in search of Holy Grails;
When you're 60 years of age
And your mum won't leave the stage,
It's good to know you're still the Prince of Wales!"

 

I learned that "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" quickly becomes an earworm. :whistle:

 

Now I'm not bragging here, because I don't wanna jinx myself, but I can never get away with pulling the ''old person' card, when I do something daft or wrong, because no-one ever believes I'm almost a pensioner..
