I prefer mine sunny side up

HOW YOU LIKE YOUR EGGS REVEALS A LOT ABOUT YOU
• Sunny-side up: You are optimistic and easygoing.
• Hard boiled: You’re a no-nonsense type. You’re quick to form opinions.
• Soft boiled: You’re gentle, sensitive, neat — but you’re not always easy to please.
• Scrambled: You’re agreeable and very steady. You go with the flow.
• Over easy: You are very precise. You know exactly what you want out of life.
• Poached: You are very orderly — you don’t like to see anything out of its place.
• Omelets: You enjoy taking risks.

THE ONE WORD YOU SHOULD NEVER SAY WHEN APOLOGIZING _ Apologizing is never as easy as it seems, and it hardly ends at just saying “I’m sorry.” Your body language, demeanor, and word choice all play a part in how your apology comes across — which is why you need to be extra careful in choosing the words you use. In fact, according to experts, there is one word you should never use whenever you are apologizing: but. The problem with the word “but” is that once it’s uttered mid-apology, it is the only word the listener will focus on. Even if you are sincere in saying sorry, the person you’re apologizing to will immediately get defensive when they hear this word. Not only that, the word “but” often makes you look like you’re blaming the other person.

STUFF THE DOG ATE _ Responses from a poll:
• My dog eats socks. She is a Golden and has always done it. We have never gone to the vet because of it though, thank goodness.
• Our yellow lab ate a 5 gallon bucket of rat poison. The vet saved him but it cost $2,500!
• My parents have Shitzu who eats women’s panties! It’s awful! I’ve lost so many because of that damn dog.
• My Chihuahua eats used condoms no matter where you put them or what you wrap them up in. How about flushing them? I doubt your Chihuahua will follow it down the toilet!
• My black Lab ate his whole shock collar… including the lithium battery inside!
• My dog ate my 25 dollar pair of pig skin work gloves.
• My fiance had a 180-pound pit bull that ate an 18 pound bowling ball. Sadly he didn’t make it.
• My dog ate a pound of uncooked rice, a half-loaf of bread, a half-pound of butter, and the molding between the kitchen and living room.
