I’ve been tasked with updating my company’s Facebook page and have spent the better part of my lunch hour thinking of things to post that would be a) genius-like in its delivery, b) Funny, c) informative, d) creative, e) relevant to our business and our audience, and f) not make my company look silly.
Do you see why I’m stuck? It’s all so subjective. Which is basically what our business sometimes is—at least according to clients. We know what is creative, relevant, important, smart, and will work. But words and graphics affect people differently. Anyway, my rambling point is that I found some fun stuff online and can’t use it all for the company FB page so I thought I’d use it here since I am the master of this domain (name) and may post what I like. HA!
Being the end of one year and start of another I got on the top-ten list kick. Here are a few that I found particularly amusing.
Top ten things to put on toast.
They did not list turkey, egg, cheese, coleslaw and fries (together) which would have been on my list.
Top ten smartest dogs.
I find it somewhat unbelievable as the mother of the Grendel dog that his breed is #7. I guess figuring out how to take the lid off a can of anything lying on the counter is considered bright in dog country. Even worse however was that the poodle got the #2 spot. Shivers…
Top ten bizarre jobs that were popular in the past
By popular they probably mean there were a lot of people doing those jobs. Because I’m pretty sure that whipping boys and gong farmers were not loving life.
So there you go. And just for kicks, here’s my top ten list for today.
Top ten fun quotes I can think of right now (in no particular order)

“ I don’t know.”
“Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?”
