Time for a Laugh?

I have been doing some surfing lately, looking for some humorous sites to bookmark for those moments when I need to take a break. As the end of the school semester looms on the horizon, I have less time to take a break, but significantly more need for one. There are, as I'm sure you know, many sites available to enjoy. I recently found one that lists peoples excuses for various situations. The site is called The Mother of All Excuses Place.

If you have a few minutes, or if you need to take a few minutes, navigate your way there and check out some of their submissions. They have over 35 pages of excuses in almost as many different categories. They have everything from Work Excuses (Why I can't/didn't come in to work today...) and School Excuses (Why I can't/didn't turn in my homework...) to Debt Excuses ("I only spent $500 so I only repaid you the $500. That is fair." The man had borrowed $1,500.). I will be checking back to this site on a regular basis. It's rather unnerving to consider that many of these excuses are "real". Many of the excuses I read were prefaced with the claim "This is an actual excuse".

There is also a link to submit our own excuses. They don't have to be "real" (actually used), but they do need to be creative. The old "my dog ate my homework" has already been submitted. (I used to think that one was pretty silly until my mother actually had to use it... and she even had the chewed up pieces as evidence!) LOL!

Hang in there, folks... for those of us in school (still, or yet again), the semester is almost over. We are in the home stretch. Take a deep breath. There is light at the end of the tunnel. (Okay, that's enough cliches for one night!) Until next time...
