      1. Hey Paul, I think I’ll order a “diet water” the next time I go out to eat just to enjoy the reaction!

        1. Yeah Millard. i like that one too. Hey Millard I lost your email address out of my contacts for some reason. would you send me an email so i can relist it?

  1. 3. Skip down the street rather than walk and see how many looks you get.

    My boss was 6′ 4″ tall, built like a linebacker, and had one of those crazy Mohawk haircuts. He was a bit of a clown, and one day we were walking from one job to another down a bust street in midtown and he said “C’mon Roger, let’s skip”, and he started skipping down the sidewalk. I didn’t join him, but instead I just watched the reactions of other pedestrians, and that was hysterical. People were pushing other people to get out of his way because he looked like a raving lunatic. I almost wet my pants watching their reactions.

  2. I actually found a product called diet water, I don’t think its a hoax anyway. It’s a Japanese product so it could be a bad translation. I wonder if its low carb.

    1. hahahaa Meg. Low carb. that’s a good one. You on a low carb diet? It works by the way. All the meat you can eat. mmmmmmmmmm!!

  3. On the subject of ordering ‘diet water’, I’ll have to tell my son about that one. He has called different WalMarts asking if they have any ‘left-handed hammers for sale’ and the sales clerks that answers the phone have actually checked to see if there are any left-handed hammers for sale. 🙂

  4. 🙂 Looks like you started something here Paul. I’m going to try the diet water too 🙂 🙂 Good one
