Here is a random collection of interesting things that make me chuckle.

Spaghetti. I like fresh spaghetti. I enjoy spaghetti best right after I pick it fresh from my orchard. I don’t even bother drying first.

Flying Penguins. One of the top 10 things I want to see in my life is the migration of this amazing breed of penguins.

Rumors. I’ve created some fun rumors and jokes through the years. Several years ago when I worked at Novell, I started a rumor about NetWare for Macintosh. We were still developing it and had not even made any public announcements about it. So I wrote an article that prematurely “leaked the news” about our upcoming product. It was believable at first, but as the story progressed, the claims became more and more ridiculous. I printed my story and glued on top of the “Mac The Knife” rumors column of a popular Macintosh magazine. Then I photocopied it and I placed copies on several managers and VP’s desks. I went back to my office and silently chucked as they read it. The surprising thing is that none of them got to the part where it became obvious that it was a joke. Instead, they came to me to figure out how this leak could have happened. Needless to say, I won company’s April Fools’ day contest! Otherwise, I wouldn’t be bragging about it here.

Or at least maybe I think I might want to become a famous blogger, perhaps possibly. It could be, perchance, conceivable to me. It may be plausible for me to believe that I can imagine it being likely, feasible, or logical, for me to become a famous blogger. You’d have to admit that it’s a reasonably rational idea.

My brain is calculating the concept that it is my hopeful aspiration — yes, even my yearning desire — to become a famous blogger, since I have intentionality and deliberately given the theory of the notion a considerable amount of forethought, preplanning, and formulated contemplation. Paradoxically, I have often musingly pondered, meditated, and introspectively studied upon the puzzling cogitation.

I reckon what I think I’m trying to say is that I am attempting to articulate the hypothesis, and surmise the supposition that anything is possible if I prudently impart enough foresight, farsightedness, and premeditated vision of become a famous blogger.

I mean, there is nothing inherently wrong with me if I anticipate, dream, or even expect to become a famous blogger, is there?

So, it is my opinion to remove any hesitation, uncertainty, or indecision on the matter. Therefore I am herby announcing the proclamation that, yes indeed, it is my ambition to become a certified, bona fide, indubitably qualified famous blogger! Yesiree, true-blue, died-in-the-wool through and through.

Now that I have made that decision, I need to figure out which of these two paths to take.

Oh no! I think I’m in trouble!
