A Groupon fail

A 50% discount on a jacuzzi room, with a king size bed, roses, buffet, and an incredibly romantic evening at one of the local area hotels.

This is where Groupon fails. I do NOT want to know that there are 189 other couples about to have the same experience.

“How is one supposed to get a bay leaf out without removing the top?”

A great question posed by a reader from Chicago!

Any clever suggestions for this reader?

In thinking about the life that astronauts lead when they are in space, I wonder about how well they adapt to the day-to-day of existence once they return to gravity-effected earth.

I’ve made a short list of some pros and cons about returning to life on earth after an extended stint on the international space station.

Pros

  1. Not having to drink recycled piss
  2. Being able to go for a walk outside without an extensive ‘getting dressed’ session

Cons

  1. Actually having to walk everywhere and all the time if wanting to change locations
  2. Not flying
  3. Not being able to pick up and throw everything
  4. The standard hum-drum of the office routine
  5. Not being allowed to throw food at the dinner table

What pros and cons would you add to my list?

As we prepared our birthday celebrations around the ChickenMonkeyDog offices, we did our best to keep the gift give-away contests under our hats, and the phrase “don’t let the cat out of the bag” was thrown around.

While we are generally fans of that phrase, for a site named chickenmonkeydog, the phrase “let the cat out of the bag” seems ill matched.

Can you help us think of a more appropriate phrase which means the same thing, for us to use around chickenmonkeydog?
