   There are posts I won't read because of the poster's name attached to them; however, it is just the opposite when I see "LindsaysGrandma."  I click because it bears your name.  Thank you.   


@IamMrsG   What a fantastic compliment, thank you so very much, I hope I never fail to live up to it.

Hi All................I may have indulged in too much chocolate today, but I don't "get" number 8.

Help?


@Irish1210   When the man said his wish was to be rich, the genie gave him the name "Rich" as opposed to making him rich.  So once the first wish was given he still had two more to ask for.  Hope this helps.

@Lindsays Grandma  No matter what kind of day I’m having when I see your post I know I’m going to laugh. Happy Valentines Day 😘


@Leggett28   Laughter is the best medicine and when I laugh after reading these when I find them, the best thing I can do is pass them on so you and others here can share in the laughter.

#4 cracks me up because I watch a lot of real crime.   So often you see the perp go to Walmart and purchase all this stuff in one fell swoop. Don't they know there are cameras?  Smiley Very Happy

@chickenbutt ...Okay, I'm curious, in real crime the perps actually purchase things like that right out in the open?

I read that one over and over again trying to "get it".  Gave up and continued reading the rest of the responses and was relieved that it wasn't just me and happy to see Lindsays Grandma's explanation.

I didn't get it either.  Glad someone explained it!
