I had to share this link just because the imagery is spectacular. How this could be considered “The Great Debate” is beyond me since there really is only one correct answer and it’s not A.
Thank you to DH for sharing!

Not Debatable
February 24, 2009How to Piss Me Off
February 18, 2009If you don’t like the “We Card EVERYONE Buying Alcohol” policy at your local grocery store, go talk to the manager or write a letter to your congressman. Do not take it upon yourself to hold up the express lane of the store cafe during the lunch rush to debate the 21+ laws or the store policy with the cashier. While the cashier may agree with your points, it’s certainly not in her best interest to overthrow the powers that employ her at that particular moment just because you forgot to bring in your wallet.
Sing Along
February 3, 2009I have a song for everything — Ask just about anyone who has spent any length of time around me. I always have a song running through my head, a readily available ditty to dance to (whether anyone else can hear it or not), or a contextually relevant song for whatever the situation. (Thanks to my mother, I also tend to have a silly song for any occasion as well, but that’s another story.)
While putting The Kid’s hair into a ponytail the other day, she winced, grunted, and said “oooo-eeeee-oooo.” It was no surprise to either me or my sister that my immediate reaction was to break into bouts of “Oo-E-Oo-Ah-Ah-Ting-Tang-Walla-Walla-Bing-Bang. Oo-E-Oo-Ah-Ah-Ting-Tang-Walla-Walla-Bing-Bang.”
The Kid looks at me like I’m insane and asks “What was that?!” To which I respond, “It’s a song.”
She obviously doesn’t believe me and is ready to argue so my sister (19) backs me up by explaining that it is indeed a song, an OLD song, and it’s been around even since Grandma was a kid.
I agreed and finished with “You know, it’s from back before they had words.”
“OOOoohhhh” responds The Kid as she walked away, now convinced of the song’s legitimacy.
