some LOLs for ya

Okay so most of us know that when a group of geese get together, one refers to them as "a gaggle of geese", right?

But... have you heard of...
  • An obstinacy of bisons?
  • A coalition of cheetahs?
  • A cast of falcons?
  • A smack of jellyfish?
  • A surfeit of skunks?
I hadn't, until I stumbled across this pretty comprehensive list of Names of Males, Females, Babies, and Groups of Animals.

now THIS is why you shouldn't take candy from strangers!

okay, I've heard of the poor girl named Ima by her parents, Mr & Mrs Hogg. It seems there are even worse (read: funnier! so long it's not yours!) names in the phonebook.

my fave: RECTION, Hugh G

They HAVE to be changing their names on purpose, on their own... because I really don't think parents would name their son JABLOME, Haywood, would they???

don't remember who to H/T for this one: some fler's 100 GREATEST
MOVIE POSTERS OF ALL TIME
. Some are interesting. What's amusing is at this point in time, there are not yet fully 100 posters up there, so if you have a suggestion/opinion, you can email the fler and see if he agrees with ya.

  2. Would you believe I had a classmate back in high school named EVENFLO? That being the brand name of rubber nipple.
