The end of an ear...

Yep. I know I said "ear". I meant to say era, but ear sounds so much better.

And yes, Thursday Thunks has posted it's last thunk last week. I'm sure you heard the rumors on Bud's blog. The rumors are true. After 2 wonderful years of trying to come up with the most insane questions anyone wouldn't want to answer, Kimber & I have decided to call it quits.
We want to send out a huge thank you & big cyber kiss to Bud. He stepped in when we hit a brick wall... if it wasn't for him this post would have happened months ago. We love you, Bud, and you will forever be our favorite thunker. We know we kinda forced you into doing to the meme - I mean, really, how could you say no, right? We're glad you didn't and stuck with it these 2 years.

We've been asking you forever and we'll tell ya one more time.... since we are done blogging and if you really want to stay in touch, you can still find both Kimber & I over at InsanityCafe.com. We still haven't figured out why you haven't gone over there yet! We've done everything short of begging!!! (Its just like blogging, just in conversation form! And yes, the insane questions are there, too!)
And to those of you who have friended us on Facebook - we'll still be there too. (Oh - and you can now connect to
InsanityCafe Forums using your Facebook account!!! - Just sayin'.)

Thank you all who have been there from the beginning, joined us in the middle and stayed with us till the end!

- Berleen

.... and now a word from Kimber.....


It has been fun doing Thursday Thunks and seeing what kind of crazy questions we could come up with. We had some insane ones! Sadly all good things must come to an end. Thank you to Bud for stepping in so much! Thank you to all those who played week after week! Berleen said most of what I would have said so with that I will just Take Care and Happy Blogging. :)

-Kimber


To finish it off on a good note - if Kimber & Berleen were standing on top of a building and Kimber dropped a purple crayon & Berleen dropped a yellow one, which one would hit the ground first?

Thursday Thunks - The Christmas Version

The TT questions are brought to you by Berleen, the color of the foot spray on the table and the num
ber 25.

C- What color/flavor candy cane should I put in your stocking?

H- If Santa really comes down the chimney of people's houses and he busts out the bricks on the way down, do you think that is covered by his Christmas insurance?

R- Did you know that rabbits eat their own poop to get the nutrients from the food that they didn't get from it the first time they ate it?

I- Have you ever sucked on an icicle?

S- Do you think there is too much sex on tv?

T- We're eating tacos. Taco sauce - hot, medium, mild or OMG my butthole is going to hurt tomorrow! ?

M- Are you sick of Christmas music yet?

A- Add up the number of windows in your house, subtract that number by the number of doors you have in your house, multiply that by the number of hallways you have in your house and then add the number of light switches. Whats your answer?

S- You build a snowman (yes you really do), what color hat do you have him wear? And now you are going to build a sand castle (yes, shut up, you do that too), does it have a moat?

Everybody wants to know - Why haven't you joined ICForums yet? We upgraded last week! You can now connect with Facebook. It's a really cool thing. But don't go there now - you don't want to get in on the debate that Kimber's debating with everyone.
Have a great day. Or not. See you next Thursday.

Thursday Thunks: Live Long, and Prosper

The TT questions are brought to you by Bud, the color of a one eyed jack and the number 69.

1. There are a lot of emotions in life. Except for Mr. Spock. What emotionally scares you the most?

2. Do you have any present goals that are tough enough that you'd like to forget about them?

3. Your Internet service goes down. What would you miss the most?

4. Name one thing that you do as a parent that you absolutely know will make your kids happy. If you're not a parent, feel free to substitute "friend" or nomenclature that works for you. (Nomenclature? Can you tell that I stole this question?)

5. If money was no object, and you had a free month or so, what would you love to do?

6. Why did you start your blog? Was it because you were pissed at someone?

7. Kimber and Berleen (Thunks founders & BFFs) are finally going to meet in person. Who are you friends with in the blogosphere that you'd love to meet? Why?

8. When you were in high school, if you can remember back that far, what mistake did you make that you'd like to change?

9. Do you believe in forever, as in 'love forever'?

10. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being uninhabitable and 10 being cleanliness that meets the standards of OCD, what is you favorite romantic comedy movie?
