  1. I came across this while going through my study materials.
    I've trimmed it a bit, but thought it might be amusing...

    How to Handle Stress

    - Jam 39 tiny marshmallows up your nose and try to
    sneeze them out
    - Use your Mastercard to pay your Visa
    - Pop some popcorn without putting on the lid
    - When someone says "have a nice day" tell them you have
    other plans
    - Make a "to do" list of things you've already done
    - Dance naked in front of your pets
    - Put your toddler's clothes on backwards and send to school
    as if nothing was wrong
    - Retaliate for tax woes and fill out your tax forms using
    Roman numerals
    - Tattoo "out to lunch" on your forehead
    - Leaf through a National Geographic and draw underware on
    the natives
    - Pay your electric bill in pennies
    - Drive to work in reverse
    - Relax by mentally reflecting on your favourite episode of
    "the Flintstones" during an important meeting
    - Read the dictionary upside down and look for hidden
    messages
    - Start a rumor and see if you recognize it when it comes
    back to you
    - Bill your doctor for time spent in the waiting room
    - Write a short story with alphabet soup
    - Stare at people through the times of a fork and pretend
    they're in jail
    - Make up a language and ask people for directions

    I already do this, but sometimes it is Visa to pay Visa,
    just a different bank. *smile*

  8. That one jumped out at me too.

    Today (see my weekly WI post for the story), I'm also drawn
    to the idea of looking at people through fork tines and
    imagining them in jail.
