THE GAME OF REGIFTING ROBIN! HAVE FUN!

Did you ever get a gift you knew you would never wear or use and finally felt it would be a better idea to give it to someone else?  Well someone devised a game that is quite different.  Did you ever play this game?  Well here goes.  I am hoping that this post will stay up! To my gifted friends. This stumped me. If you can figure out how she does it, please let me know.  I never even touched the cursor on my chosen number. Once I did not even follow the directions, I just looked at the number and she still got it! This will drive you crazy! Click here: Regifting Robin

  A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward.This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward.  Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite. This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant.   Make sure you read as well as listen,forward and backward.  This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old.   The contest was titled "u @ 50"  by  AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause.  So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.

PEER PRESSURE !

A little koala was sitting in a gum tree trying a cigarette for the first time
 
 when a little lizard walked past, looked up and said, 'Hey Koala!  What are you doing?'
 
  The koala said: 'Smoking , come up and have some.'

 
 So the little lizard climbed up and sat next to the koala where they enjoyed a few cigarettes.    After a while the little lizard said that his mouth was 'dry' and that he was going to get a drink from the river.
 
 The little lizard  leaned over too far and fell into the river.
 A crocodile saw this and swam over to the little lizard and helped him to the side. Then he asked the little lizard, 'What's the matter with you?'

 The little lizard explained to the crocodile that he had been sitting with the koala in the tree, trying smoking cigarettes for the first time, but got too dizzy and fell into the river while taking a drink..

 The crocodile said that he had to check this out and walked into the rain forest, found the tree where the koala was sitting finishing a ciggy. The crocodile looked up and said,


 'Hey you!'

 So the koala looked down at him and said,
 
  Geez, dude...
 How much water did you drink!?'
  

JUST FOR LAUGHS!

Male Date-Drug (be sure to watch the video link at the end) Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties & local pubs to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink by any woman. Many females use a date-drug on the market called 'Beer ' . The drug is found in liquid form and is available anywhere. It comes in bottles, cans, or from taps and in large kegs. Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade their male victims to go home and sleep with them. A woman needs only to get a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then simply ask him home for no-strings-attached sex. Men are rendered helpless against this approach. After several Beers , men will often succumb to the desires to sleep with horrific looking women to whom they would never normally be attracted. After drinking Beer , men often awaken with only hazy memories of exactly what happened to them the night before, often with just a vague feeling that 'something bad' occurred. At other times these unfortunate men are swindled out of their life's savings, in a familiar scam known as 'a relationship' . In extreme cases, the female may even be shrewd enough to entrap the unsuspecting male into a longer-term form of servitude and punishment referred to as 'marriage'. Men are much more susceptible to this scam after Beer  is administered and sex is offered by the predatory females. Please forward this warning to every male you know. If you fall victim to this 'Beer ' scam and the women administering it, there are male support groups where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter with similarly victimized men. For the support group nearest you, just look up 'Golf Courses' in the phone book. For a video to see how Beer  works click here: Beer Demo

ITS HAPPENING IN CANADA AND ITS FRIGHTENING........

Another 'Toronto 18' member pleads guilty

Another member of the so-called Toronto 18 group has pleaded guilty to charges of participating in a terrorist group.
Amin Mohamed Durrani admitted in court Wednesday that he took part in training camps organized by the 18 men and youths who were accused of plotting to blow up several landmarks and attack other high-profile targets.
Durrani was sentenced to 7½ years in prison, but taking into account time he has already spent in custody, he could be released by Thursday.
He told the Brampton, Ont., courtroom that he participated in the group's terrorist training camp in December 2005 near Washago, Ont. Durrani, who was 19 when he was arrested on June 2, 2006, told Justice Bruce Durno he made a "mistake" and wanted to get on with his life.
"The Toronto 18 group, which is normally referred to as one group in fact encompassed two plots — one was the bomb plot that we've heard a lot of," said Bill Gillespie, CBC's security correspondent.
"Durrani was involved in the second side of that — the attempt to create a large al-Qaeda type cell in Toronto — to arm themselves with weapons, and then to create some sort of mayhem that would scare the Canadian public into withdrawing troops from Afghanistan."
This group planned to storm Parliament Hill in Ottawa and behead politicians, including Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
His sentence comes two days after the group's ringleader, Zakaria Amara, received a life sentence for his role in the bomb plot, in which the suspects planned on blowing up the Toronto Stock Exchange and other prominent Toronto buildings.
Amara pleaded guilty in October 2009 to knowingly participating in a terrorist group and intending to cause an explosion for the benefit of a terrorist group.
Of the 18 people arrested in 2006, four have pleaded guilty, seven have had their charges dropped or stayed, one youth was found guilty, one man's trial began last week and five others will be tried in March.
