Joke of the Day

A couple, desperate to conceive a child, went to their priest and asked him to pray for them. "I'm going on a sabbatical to Rome," he replied, "and while I'm there, I'll light a candle for you."

When the priest returned three years later, he went to the couple's house and found the wife pregnant, busily attending to two sets of twins.

Elated, the priest asked her where her husband was so that he could congratulate him.

"He's gone to Rome, to blow out that candle!"


Me Myself and I

Quick quiz... what is our favorite topic in the whole world? Is it our kids, our pets, or ourselves? If you said 'ourselves,' (ding, ding, ding) you're a winner! A new study found we love, love, love to talk about ourselves because, well, it makes us feel good. Harvard researchers discovered that humans get a biochemical buzz from self-disclosure, which explains why we devote 40% of the conversation talking about ourselves.

When participants in the study started gabbing about themselves, brain scans showed the rewards area of the brain become active. The same area that lights up for sex and food.

We especially love sharing personal information if we know other people are listening. We seem to get a rush knowing that the information we share may get passed along to another person.

All of this explains why we're addicted to social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

How to Bust a Liar

It's hard to believe, but occasionally, a guy will...lie. For those rare times you may think he's fibbing, just check out his body. His body gives it all away. Here are four Liar Moves:


  • Liar Move #1 - Busted if he wraps his ankle around the leg of the chair. (A liar's body will tense up, so he'll take a more rigid stance)
  • Liar Move #2 - Busted if he suddenly puts his hands in his pockets (Showing palms is a sign of comfort and openness)
  • Liar Move #3 - Busted if he shrugs one or both shoulders (The shrug cancels out the untruth, like crossing fingers behind the back)
  • Liar Move #4 - Busted if he uses his index finger to rub just underneath his nose (This move is from men who typically don't lie, and feel remorse. It's a move to hide his mouth, as if he can't believe what he just said)


Phones/Facebook: How do you instantly know he's lying?

Number of the Day

1,000...

...the number of dollars the average American family will spend on prom for their children this year. That's up from $807 last year! If that's not strange enough, get this -- the less a family makes, the more they will spend. Families that make between:
  • 20 to 30 grand will spend, on average, $2,635 for prom
  • 40 to 50 grand will spend $695
  • Over $75-grand will spend $842
What you spend depends on where you live, too...
  • Northeast families are paying $1,994 on average
  • Southern families will spend $1,047
  • Western families will shell out $744
  • Midwest cheapos will spend $696
Experts blame reality TV and red-carpet crazed publications.

Facebook/Phones: How much have you shelled out (so far) and for what? Who's spending the most, and who's spending the least? How much should parents pay for their kid's prom?

10 Ways to Ruin Your Child's Day

Funny article from Marla Jo Fisher who writes for the Orange County Register, and a mom. She, of course, admits her life would be empty without her kids, but she also wasn't surprised to read that parents tend to be more depressed than people without kids. She has 10 ways to get back at your children when they drive you bat-crazy. She calls them "non-pharmaceuticalmood elevators."

Here they are...10 ways to ruin your child's day:


  1. Do a little happy dance around the living room when your kid's friends come over. Invite them to join in.
  2. Put a country station on the car radio, don't let anyone change it, and sing along at the top of your lungs.
  3. Put everyone in the car to go to Disneyland, and then announce, "I have to use the bathroom." Take your time.
  4. Two words: Spinach quiche.
  5. Blow kisses at your son when you drop him off at school.
  6. Go through your kid's backpack every day, asking him to explain every item inside.
  7. Wear your pants without a belt, with the tops of your underwear showing.
  8. When you go into a store, beg your kids to buy you something. Keep getting louder until everyone hears you.
  9. Go on your kid's Facebook page and post loving messages there.
  10. Make her take piano lessons and practice every day.
Phones/Facebook:  What do you intentionally do because you KNOW it drives your kids nuts?
