****The Official Friday Silliness Thread****

Well, I'm off to take my kids to the zoo today!!!


I'll have to keep my eye on my kids


And I hope they have safe containment for the animals...


And I'll have to make sure my kids leave the animals alone

The most fun my family ever had was at the Olympic Game Farm in Squim, WA.

Copy and paste. Gets me every time.

I was so concerned about the HTML that's all I was looking at.

Check out the front page at Huffpo. The headline "Air Force Missile Launch Crew Falls Asleep With Classified Codes" is illustrated with a fighter jet firing a missile.

I bet the libs are wondering how the Air Forces fits all those people into that tiny cockpit.

Good morning!

[EX52D]

Hi Day10! How have you been?

[Responsibility2nd]

You’re too young to remember this Simon & Garfunkel classic, but I remember it well:

Someone told me
It’s all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it’s true
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
Oh ho ho ho
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm

It’s a light and tumble journey
From the East Side to the park
Just a fine and fancy ramble
To the zoo

But you can take the crosstown bus
If it’s raining or it’s cold
And the animals will love it
If you do

If ya do now

Something tells me
It’s all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it’s true
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
Oh ho ho ho
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm

The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants are kindly but they’re dumb
Ourang-outangs are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum

Zebras are reactionaries
Antelopes are missionaries
Pigeons plot in secrecy
And hamsters turn on frequently
What a gas
Ya gotta come and see
At the zoo
At the zoo
At the zoo
At the zoo
