Here’s your hat, what’s your hurry?

From the extremely random department, it’s The Amazing Hair Hat Man from the Japan Probe. They go on to explain “The narrator introduces him as “Danny, a man who has never taken off his hat for 20 years.” Seriously? I don’t know which is funnier, the Hair Hat or the Japanese graphics and commentary.

Coyote in Scarsdale? Really?!

Posted by Jackie On August - 25 - 2009

coyote_roadsideI kid you not, I saw a Coyote run from my backyard neighbors property — although I thought it was a wolf and proceeded to run through the house like a mad woman screaming “WOLF!! WOLF!!” — into my driveway and across my front lawn. He was headed straight for the duck pond… Oh, oh!

I called 911 and as it turns out, (read the following with a strong southern drawl) “Ma’am, they’re natural to these here parts”. Really? Scarsdale!? Coyote country?!? Hmmm, Sotheby’s did not happen to mention that in their real estate brochure?! Hello? I have a five year-old daughter and a 4 pound dog! So, am I no longer allowed to have them play outside? The Wildlife Conservation person from upstate New York told me to just make sure to keep my garbage up and if it becomes a consistent problem to call my local wildlife control. Keeping my garbage up? No problem. Dealing with my 10 year-old son who wanted to go after him on his bike? Priceless.

“The weather is so PMS-y.”

09-september-2009-039This is credited to Lisa’s dear friend, Alexa, who literally came up with this brilliant word. “Kajankety” is perfect for anything that goes wonky or is kinda thrown together.  As in “Don’t look at me! My hair’s totally kajankety.”  to “Was that dinner party kajankety or what?”
