Things learned from raising boys:
1) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with rollerblades, they can ignite.
3) A 3-year old boy's voice is louder than 200 dbs in a crowdedrestaurant.
4) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strongenough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Supermancape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spreadpaint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. Whenusing a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit bya ceiling fan.
7) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late.
8) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9) A six-year old boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies.
10) Certain Legos will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old boy.
11) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12) Super glue is forever.
13) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
14) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15) VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TVcommercials show they do
16) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19) Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.
20) The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.
21) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22) It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24) 80% of women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.
25) 80% of men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brakefluid.

Thats funny!
26) Boys left to bring their own footwear out to the van when leaving on vacation will instead walk to the van barefoot, fall asleep and awaken two hours later to ask, "Did anybody bring my shoes?"
To Love, Honor and Dismay
I love that one Andrew! Something very similar actually happened with my son last week. :-)
These were all too funny. I have one brother and if he ever got a hold of this list, he would probably try all of them just for fun.
(come here through average girl)
