For those who don't know, I've been visiting the same barber shop for years to get my hair cut because I try to keep it really short. What you may not know is that all 5 barbers look like someone from www.fitstuds.blogspot.com(lol). I asked the owner if it was a requirement to look like that to work there, but he swears that it just worked out that way.
If you're lucky enough to get there early in the morning, you'll see them practicing new fitness moves,lifting weights or talking about exercise stuff. They're always quick to hand me a 10 lb barbell, but I promise that no one wants to unsee a vision of Ms. RO pumping iron.(lol)If someone gifted you with lots and lots of candy during the holidays, you'll be pleased to know that 12/26 is National Candy Cane Day. Feel free to re-gift or use them in recipes. By the way, the candy cane capital of the world is located in Bryan OH, which is home to Spangler Candy Company.
Do you like crossword puzzles? Every now and then I work on those that are pop-culture related. Did you know that the very first crossword puzzle was printed in the New York World in 1913? Originally it was called Word Cross, but an error during publishing transposed the letters to what we all know and love as Crossword.
Speaking of texting - how quickly can you type "The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human."? If you can type this faster than 17 seconds on your cell phone, you'll beat the current Guinness World Record holder, Marcel Fernandes Filho who won when he was 17. He's held the record since 2014.

No, I have no clue who this woman is, but I was intrigued by her job as an Official Lipstick Reader, and thought I'd share her info. This is a real thing, blogger buds, and she's considered an intuitive psychic. You can visit her site at http://officiallipstickreader.com or call 877-605-6389.
I'm going to end this post with a conversation I had with someone who's been a friend for 30+ years, and I totally adore, and he told me this. " We wear our masks all the time - even during sex". How's that for a conversation starter, Blogger Buds?
