1 to state that a light bulb does not emit light, it sucks dark. After it is full, it stays dark.

I’m always amazed at the Pharisees who feel the need to correct everyone who posts on the Hog. One bellyaches if a post seems to be under the wrong heading. Small people who’ve never been in charge of anything.

I LOVE THIS! This is one of my favorite post of all times. Everyone is so true and it brings to light all of our human quirks. I really had to laugh at most of these as I am guilty of a lot of them myself. This woke me up. Thanks
