Bedlam Definition
.
Bedlam describes a noisy lack of order, a scene of confusion. Near synonyms include: chaos, pandemonium, hubbub and uproar. Example: "When the referee awarded the penalty kick, complete bedlam broke out among the home team's fans."
The word is a corruption of Bethlehem the popular name for the Hospital of St. Mary Bethlehem in London, England, which was used to house the mentally ill. In 1403, the asylum became Britain's first to exclusively serve this purpose.
Bedlam is capitalized when used as a noun describing a lunatic asylum. It was also used in the early 16th century to refer to an insane person. Madmen were labeled Tom O'Bedlams. In Shakespeare's King Lear, Edgar disguises himself as a Tom O'Bedlam. See also Democratic Party.

Magic Lamp
.
One night a UNC student found a magic lamp, picked it up, rubbed it and a Genie appeared. "Your wish is my command," said the Genie. "Well, there is one thing," the UNC student said. "Just name it," said the Genie.
"It's those UNC jokes. They are so demeaning to UNC grads everywhere, not just to me. I would like for UNC jokes to stop." "Consider it done," said the Genie. "UNC jokes shall be stricken from the minds of humans everywhere. But surely there is something that I could do just for you."
"There is one more thing. But it's really small, and not worth your time," said the UNC student.
"Name it. Please," said the Genie.
"It's those M&M's," said the UNC student. "They're so hard to peel."

Tallest Dam
.
The world's tallest dam is the partly-constructed Rogun Dam in Tajikistan, a tiny country in the jagged mountains between China and Afghanistan. At 1100 feet tall (336 meters, about as high as a 100-story building) this earth and rock dam overtops its nearby neighbor the Nurek Dam, which is the world's second tallest at 985 feet (300 meters).
The unfinished Rogun Dam was severely damaged by floods in the early 1990s and is currently undergoing major repairs, so its reservoir is not yet filled. The completed Nurek Dam produces electricity and water for irrigation.
The third tallest dam is Switzerland's Grand Dixence, at 285 meters. The tallest dam in the United States is the Oroville Dam in northern California, at 755 feet (230 meters). Oroville is 16th on the world list.

Running Out
.
There are a lot of folks that can't understand how we ran out of oil here in the USA.
Well, here's the answer: It's simple.........nobody bothered to check the oil. Didn't know we were getting low. And of course the reason for that is geographical. Most of the oil is offshore or in Texas, Alaska and Oklahoma, and all the dipsticks are the liberals in the U.S. Senate.

Was Hurricane Katrina 'Intelligent Design?'
.
NPR Senior News Analyst, Daniel Schorr, observed that President Bush had “staked out a non-position” on the debate between evolution and intelligent design. Bush had said that “both sides ought to be properly taught in the schools of America.”
Then, with manifest scorn, Schorr linked the devastation of Hurricane Katrina with the concept of intelligent design: “[Bush] might well have reflected that, if this was the result of intelligent design, then the designer has something to answer for.” MORE!!!

Blog Statement
.
We work like a horse. We eat like a pig. We like to play chicken. You can get someone's goat. We can be as slippery as a snake. We get dog tired. We can be as quiet as a mouse. We can be as quick as a cat. Some of us are as strong as an ox. People try to buffalo others. Some are as ugly as a toad. We can be as gentle as a lamb. Sometimes we are as happy as a lark. Some of us drink like a fish. We can be as proud as a peacock. A few of us are as hairy as a gorilla. You can get a frog in your throat. We can be a lone wolf. But I'm having a whale of a time!
