Ha! Now eat the crust!

I bookmarked this while I was sick and meant to post about it and kept forgetting to. :) Anyway, it’s a great little article about Old Wives Tales. I enjoyed it and will be using it as proof that I can crack my knuckles without giving myself arthritis. ;)

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to get back to lying to my kids. ;)

    I’ve always thought that “sitting too close to the television is bad for your eyes” was true… lol

    Me, too! And I use that on my own children, lol! It can’t be that healthy for you though.

    Old Wives Tales
    I’ve always thought that sitting too close to a television and reading a book under dim lighting were bad for your eyes, but this article, which I got from Denise, says otherwise. :) It’s like something else our parents used to tell us: Too much…

    Cracking your knuckles may not cause old Arthur but it is surely irratating.:furious::wall:

    Hehe… Was wondering if you’d see that, Mom! :angel:

    Aha! My mom was wrong, but not about the TV thing. I like to read in the semi-dark, you know, when the light is fading from the day and there are no lights on in the house. And every time without fail, she’d put a light on and tell me if I continued to strain my eyes to read I’d go blind. “And we can’t afford new glasses!”

    “Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to get back to lying to my kids.”

    lol.

    Yep, even after reading that article, I still find myself telling them the same old lies, lol.

    Where’s the one about feeding a cold and starving a fever? Or is it feeding a fever and starving a cold? I can’t ever remember…..:bounce:

    I can never remember either! I should ask my mom, she knows this stuff. ;)
