  7. LOL! I have seen sOMe of these before - but not all of them. It's CRAZY what they will put on instructions!

    Mr. Gattino and your friend are both in my prayers Gattina... I hope his surgery goes smoothly and he heals quickly -- and I hope her treatment is all that is needed! This is not Ilona is it?

  12. Hi Gattina...
    Where did you find Thursday Thirteen to sign up again? I miss playing this. Did someone else take over the meme?

    These are truly funny.

  13. Good advice but sometimes you just have to iron clothes while your wearing them.

  14. I have actually read that peanut package while bored on a plane flight!

    You know those are on there because some idiot was stupid enough to try or ask those things.

    I get a kick out of the "things you cannot claim" list in the IRS instruction booklet - all those things people tried to claim as deductions on their taxes because there was a loophole - like pet cats for example!!!

  15. I guess there are just a lot of idiots running around out here in the world that need those warnings.
