These Are The Things I Think About -- Apr10th-15th

Let’s start with a question plaguing humanity for some 23 years. We now know where the Simpsons live! We all know their hometown is Springfield, but what Springfield, what state? Creator Matt Groening has settled it. Oregon. The Simpsons live in Springfield, Oregon. Still a made up place so don’t send your letters. Instead send them to me…Don’t forget to include cash!

From my only in Germany file, an chocolate egg hunt had to be cancelled there on Easter Sunday. Why? Because kids found a rusty, yet fully functioning WWII bazooka under some leaves…Yikes! Don’t know about you, but there’d be lots of chocolate in my pants if I found a functioning Bazooka during an Easter egg hunt… :-P

Moving on, a new study out confirms those who work in the customer service industry can get super stressed out by being forced to smile at customers and act friendly to people all day long. Stressed out, by being nice to people; Government office staff must be the most unstressed people around!

Finally, The ‘World’s Fattest Man’ is ready to lose weight. Oh, good for you ‘World’s Fattest Man'....Weighing 812 pounds, he says finding out he was the fattest man in the world was his wake-up call. Really?!, that’s what it took?….Not being able to walk, heart wrenching chest pains, wearing a tarp for a T-shirt, that didn’t do it?

--Oh P.S. This past Friday was Friday the 13th. If you are one to be worried about bad luck, keep this in mind. A new study says roads are safer on Friday the 13ths then on other Fridays…Interesting. Gotta wonder if it’s cause all the bad luck worriers stay home on Friday the 13ths.

P.S.S.-- NHL Playoffs started this week. Check out my playoff predictions HERE
