They were asked to participate at a fashion show where the proceeds went to an Alzheimer's group. My grandfather had Alzheimer's disease and my sister was eager to contribute her time and funds to this endeavour. However, she was very upset that they constantly played Barbra Streisand's rendition of "Memories" during the entire fashion show!!! <br /><br />Needless to say, many family members of people with Alzheimer's were in attendance, and furious. Many left before the silent auction (which was the big money maker for the event).Pink Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08531563324111806275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-12517048814891055212009-11-15T23:16:35.737-05:002009-11-15T23:16:35.737-05:00I used to worry about Alzheimer's, but I can&#...I used to worry about Alzheimer's, but I can't remember why.<br /><br />MikeBMG Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-14467306593037819002009-11-15T02:42:03.140-05:002009-11-15T02:42:03.140-05:00HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

As I looked out my classroom window I saw drug addicts, street people, suicidally depressed people, schizophrenic people, crazy criminals not pretending too hard to be crazy standing in line for their turn to get into the clinic. On the building wall for them to look at as they waited for their turn to get into the clinic, I saw a brightly colored poster with the headline: <b>Celebrate Mental Health!</b><br /><br />Once I saw a man running down the same street pursued by police officers, pulling off his clothes as he ran. As he ran by my window he escaped from his pants. Perhaps he was celebrating.modesty presshttp://modestypress.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-51785791627532875862009-11-13T11:37:49.147-05:002009-11-13T11:37:49.147-05:00Introductions should be REALLY fun there..."H...Introductions should be REALLY fun there..."Hi, I'm...uh...er....who am I again?"<br /><br />Please tell us you submitted that to FailBlog..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-90822760702885002722009-11-13T11:23:32.550-05:002009-11-13T11:23:32.550-05:00I guess it is better than "Twist the night aw...I guess it is better than "Twist the night away!

The ad claims that they a "study of unprecedented magnitude reveals the secret of a longer life in dogs with congestive heart failure!" Okaaaaay. They want to sell the drug on the grounds that THEIR study is BIGGER THAN everyone else's study? Seriously? That's the best they could come up with??webhillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05938934194973454729noreply@blogger.com
