Online Bingo chat rooms are often a breeding ground for terrible jokes. Not terrible in the sense of dirty or offensive (luckily, the chat room moderator sees to that), but rather in the sense of being really corny. And yeah, sometimes excruciatingly so.

But it’s all in good fun, and I have to admit, some of my lame jokes have made many an Online Bingo player’s hair stand on end. So we send good-natured ‘lol’ replies to each other’s weak jokes, rather than express the gagging motions we’re secretly thinking. And the occasional bad joke is a small price to pay for the camaraderie and fun chats we love so much.

The truth is, we’re all subjected to bad jokes every now and then. I think everybody has got that one stinker that they dust off every now and then. Yes, the one that you (and only you) think is hilarious after a couple of glasses of wine, and that actually makes people LEAVE parties and other social gatherings.

Now, Asylum.co.uk reports what we’ve always suspected... That new research has shown that those who tell a bad joke could be subjected to intense hostility and violence.

The site reports that a linguist at the Washington State University in America tested reactions to the joke, "What did the big chimney say to the little chimney?" with the punchline, "Nothing, chimneys can't talk."

She endangered her students’ lives by sending them out in public with this armpit of a joke and ordering them to drop it into normal conversation and then record the results.

Although no lives were lost in the process, the results did show that 44% of the responses "were basically attacks intended to result in the social exclusion or humiliation of the speaker, punctuated on occasion with profanity, a nasty glare or even a solid punch to the arm."

So there you go. It has been statistically proved that you could be the victim of grievous bodily harm the next time you decide to clear a room with your stinker of a joke. You have been warned!

Oh and by the way...

Q: what do you call a deer with no eyes?

A: what do you call a deer with no legs and no eyes?
Q: still no idea
Waaaahahaaha.....!

You’ve left the site, haven’t you...?

college
The old saying, “Choose your friends wisely” might be more relevant than you think in today’s Online society. We’ve all heard horror stories about people losing potential job offers after companies and recruiting agencies came across half-naked pics or lewd comments on the applicant’s Facebook profile. But it seems that things are going a step further...

According to a frightening clip on MSNBC, your next job reference could be from your friends on Facebook. More and more companies and recruitment agencies are using social networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn to check out applicants and to talk to contacts and friends.

Now I don’t know about you, but my old drinking buddies from college will not make a great job reference.

Question: Is the applicant trustworthy?
Answer: Well, you could always trust her to be where the biggest party was! Rock on!

Question: How would you describe the applicant?
Answer: Man, she was a hard-core chick who didn’t take any S#%t from nobody – a real ball-buster, you know? But that was when she was falling around the place with a pint in each hand. Weird, now that I think about it, I don’t really know what she was like sober...
And so forth.....

The MSN clip goes on to say that your resume is simply not enough for a prospective employer these days. What they’re more interested in, is your Top 10 results on Google, as that gives them a better idea of who you are, and the type of person they’re employing.

So the bottom line is that if you’re on the market for a job, it might be a wise decision to clear up your Facebook profile and get rid of all those dodgy ‘friends’ you added just to get your numbers tally up, and delete all those embarrassing photos you were tagged in.

You never know – it could be what’s standing between you and your dream job....

I have spent the last couple of weeks unashamedly gripped by Olympics fever. I watch in awe how the divers twist and turn and make almost no splash, in blurry-eyed amazement at the speed of the table tennis games and in thinly veiled jealousy at the shapely legs and butts of the beach volleyball teams.

But generally I just sit back, relax and try to figure out how I can also look and perform like an Olympian – but naturally without all the tedious training and exercising...

Olympic chocolate brownie scoffer? Olympic shopper-that-returns-half-the-clothes-the-next-day?

Olympic Online Bingo Gold Medalist? Now there’s an idea...
All the gold and all the glory for merrily doing what I love most – chatting to my roomies, kicking butt in chat games and even winning Bingo every now and then! Oh, how I would love to go for gold... 

Naturally, when I brought this up in the Chat Room, everyone got very excited and we had a ball trying to come up with Olympic Bingo events and games (no pun intended). It’s a good thing the Bingo software marks off your tickets automatically and alerts you when you’ve won – since I’m sure no one paid any attention to the game – we were so busy laughing and joking and coming up with silly ideas!

Someone also commented on the amount of older women who are not only taking part in the Olympics – but also winning medals! Dara Torres, who narrowly missed Gold in swimming, is a jaw-dropping 41, while Oksana Chusovitina, Silver medallist in gymnastics, is a 33-year-old mother!

Here’s to all the more ‘experienced’ athletes giving the young ones a run for their money – You make us gals proud!

Please forgive the flippant heading in this very serious matter – please understand that it is not my intention to ridicule or jest. It was simply the best way I could think of to salute someone who is showing such bravery and honesty in such a sensitive situation.

According to news reports, Christina Applegate is recovering after a double mastectomy about 3 weeks ago, after discovering the cancerous lump through the second of two MRI tests as a follow-up from a biopsy she had last year. Since the mastectomy the beautiful actress has openly and bravely discussed this highly sensitive issue, giving hope to millions of women facing the same difficult circumstances and decisions.

Since I felt very strongly about all the good that Christina is doing by being open about her situation, I brought up the topic in my Bingo Chat Room last night. As expected, my roomies had insightful comments and ideas, and we spent an usually long time discussing this serious topic. (in general, serious topics tend to be nipped in the bud quite quickly).

By the time I logged off, I felt truly blessed and thankful that I had so many wonderful friends to share with and talk to. Strange as it might sound, finding my online bingo hall buddies have made a wonderful change in my day-to-day life.

Thanks guys, and thank you Christina. Big up girl!

Sometimes it feels like life is just passing me by. The one moment you are the centre of your children’s existence, and the next they’re all grown up and ready to take on the world. I had a cruel eye opener the other day when my daughter (who is only 14) asked me if I could buy her some thongs! Thongs? What need would my innocent little darling possibly have for a thong...?

After blurting out a curt “NO!” and sweating it out in silence for a while, I finally built up the courage to ask her why she wanted to wear thongs. She sweetly replied that she simply didn’t want her panty line showing... (!!!)

Well, after settling the kids and getting dinner out of the way at record speed, I couldn’t wait to logon to my favourite bingo hall and ask my trusted roomies and chat friends what to do! Online Bingo brings together people from all over the world, across many age groups, which is why it was interesting to take note of the diverse reactions and advice.

Well, after the online laughter and exclamations died down, the general consensus seemed to be that a thong was just another style of underwear that some find very comfortable, and that I’m a prude and worry wart and should seriously chill out and get a life.

Nice!

Not quite the support and understanding I expected from my trusted Online Bingo buddies! But it did give me a fresh perspective, and (lucky for my daughter) a new insight.

Will I be buying her thongs in the near future?

The jury is still out.....

Ok , I'm still cross, and I'm gonna take every oppportunity to let people know that I think the service of taking off blogs after 3 days is areally bad practise, but seeing as I have people actually reading this blog, I'm gonna post here anyway.

I had a think, and 3 days notice is unreasonable - I've had colds last longer than that - there is no back up and i lost 78 articles.

I am really pissed at Blog.co.uk - I think they could do a better job!

Sorry to all of you that loved my blog, and loved it. The people here deleted it cos i put a banner on it. I was away on holiday, they gave me 3 days notice which is, in my opinion totally unreasonable.

Honestly - all that work, and effort and I didn't even ghave a copy!!

So, I moved to http://bingoforfun.blogspot.com

PLease subscribe to me there, and SORRY!!!!!
