WHAT IS THURSDAY THUNKS?

Thursday Thunks (TT) is a blog meme written by Berleen, Kimber & Bud - because really, they had nothing better to do with their Thursdays. It's for those who need a little kick in the butt to find something to post about. We picked Thursday because... well, it's an odd day. Thursday is odd, isn't it?

And let us warn you... we aren't just going to say something like... "Tell us a story about your last family vacation"... oh no, we are going to make you think thunk about it! Just trust us - you'll love it! You will if you like to think, that is. If you don't like to think... well then, we're sorry.
Your blog posts/answers to TT's can be type or pictures, doesn't matter! YOU pick, not us, we just give you the assignment (yep, just like English class... only we won't grade your spelling & grammer).

How This Whole Thing Works

Check this blog each Thursday for the week's Thursday Thunks - or I've got an idea! Sign up for email notices and we'll send you a little sticky note type reminder. Subscribe by Email
(you will get notices on all blog posts for a StraitJacket & a Padded Room with this link, not just TT's)

We pick a subject, and your job is to interpret it anyway you want. Write about it on your blog... simple as that. Maybe you can interpret it as a picture - we don't care!

When you enter your link on Mr. Linky, you will most likely notice that it says "delete link" next to your name. If you click on that, it will let you delete what you just posted. No one else can see it, just like you can't see the "delete link" next to my name on my computer.

Please only leave a link if you have written a Thursday Thunks post. Please mention us in your post, and link back to the blog here.

Don't forget to go visit the other participants' blogs. Read and comment about all their Thursday Thunks! Thats what all this is about afterall, isn't it? We'll have so much fun and become lifelong friends....
