Giggle, Wiggle and Jiggle

Morning Jumble Mashers! Welcome to another installment of Giggle, Wiggle, and Jiggle!

First, the poll results.
CDs took the win with 52% which surprised me. CD sales have cut in half in the 2000's. Ya'll must be downloading, huh? I listen to music the most at work and that's on my iPad.

So new poll for the week! What are your vacation plans? Poll is over there to your right!

On Tuesday, I asked the question, What is the number 1 selling commercial cookie in the USA and Dangerboy answered it correctly. It was Oreo. And I had oreo pie yesterday for lunch and it was AWESOME. Ah hem. Anyways, go click the Giggle Button!!

And last but not least, my recommendation this week is...

I Make Soap

Skippy Mom is absolutely awesome and I think she is just as excited for my wedding as I am! She always tells you what's on her mind and her blog is a very good read! Check her out!

This one is about cookies...kinda

Remember when I told you guys that an old friend and I reconnected and I was super excited about it?

Well, we made plans on Saturday to have a cookout at my house. I went out and bought all of the hot dogs and hamburgers, chips, pasta salad, alcohol, pop and even made Fiance cut some fire wood. They were scheduled to arrive at 7:00 so at 5:00 I started baking cookies. Lots of cookies. Snickerdoodle, Macadamia Nut, Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter.

By 6:00 I had a nice assorted tray of cookies.

At 6:10, she TEXTED and canceled.

Fiance and I ended up having our OWN cookout, which actually turned out to be quite nice. Piss on her. And we had tons of cookies that we just HAD to get rid of. Before they went bad. You know. The sacrifices!

Now for a relevant trivia question...

What is the number 1 selling commercial cookie in the USA?

First to answer gets to choose who will go on the Giggle Button this week!!

Giggle, Wiggle, and Jiggle

Good morning Jumble Mashers! This is this first Giggle, Wiggle, and Jiggle I've done in a while. Let's see if I remember how to do this!

We'll start with the Giggle Button winner. Lyndylou was the first to answer the question, What was the name of Morgan Freeman's character in the 2007 film Bucket List? It was indeed Carter Chambers. By the way, what did you guys think of that movie?

Lyndylou picked the next Giggle Button occupant. Go click and find out! I will tell you, that she didn't pick herself!

This week, I highly recommend to you Make Daddy a Sammich.





His blog name alone should let you know that he is one funny dude. And definitely not afraid to said what's on his mind. You've been warned :)
 
Now for the first poll in FOREVER!
 
Where does your music come from? I'm talking about the majority of your music. Do you love your Ipod or do you prefer CDs? Please vote! (Poll over on your right)

It's baaaaaaack

I'm bringing Giggle, Wiggle, and Jiggle back. For all of you new Jumble Mashers, that means that every Tuesday I will ask you a trivia question. The first to answer it correctly, gets to pick who goes on the Giggle Button for a week. You can always choose yourself!

On Thursday, I will start a new poll, announce the Giggle Button winner AND do the weekly blog recommendation.

And I promise that I am going to try to keep up with it. As a lot of you know, the company I work for got bought out and we are in the middle of a merger. We are supposed to be completely done by the end of June, but we'll see. Also, I'm trying to plan a wedding, which is proving to take up a lot of time, but I do have a lot finished already.

Ok, so for the trivia question...

What was the name of Morgan Freeman's character in the 2007 film Bucket List?

Ready...set...GO!

If your life were a movie...

What would the soundtrack be?

Saw this floating around on the web and thought it would be fun!

So, here's how it works:

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool…

Opening Credits:

Come to My Window- Melissa Etheridge
LOL, Don't really know about that.

Waking Up:

Dragonfly-Shaman's Harvest
The first lyrics to this song are,

Maybe the sky's falling down around them babies
Maybe the world is gonna spin out of control
I don't care anymore
What if I quit today workin' for the man
And said I had enough

So I guess that would be cool to wake up to!

First Day At School:

Seether- Fine Again
Again, check out the opening...

It seems like every day's the same
And I'm left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
And there's no color to behold

Falling In Love:

Inside Out- Eve 6
 Hmmmm. Not very romantic.

Fight Song:

February Stars- Foo Fighters
Well the band is called Foo Fighters, but this song? Not much for fighting.


Breaking Up:

Tiny Heart- Flyleaf
Ah, now that's pretty spot on


 Prom:

Caress Me Down- Sublime
 LMAO, depends on how you look at it and what your after prom plans are :)

Life:

Letters to You- Finch
Not so sure, more of a breakup song.

Mental Breakdown:

Because of You- Kelley Clarkson
Haha, sure?

Driving:

Bad Girlfriend- Theory of a Deadman
 I do like blasting this song in the car, but don't think it necessarily pertains to me.


Flashback:

What Would You Say- Dave Matthews Band
Love the song. Not very fitting.

Wedding:

Hey Mister- Pop Evil
 Ok this game is starting to suck. That's not a happy song. Maybe its my playlist.


Birth of Child:

Zoe Jane- Staind
 Another one that fits!! Check out the chorus.

I want to hold you

protect you from all of the
things I've already endured
I want to show you
show you all of the things
that this life has in store
for you
I'll always love you
the way that a father
should love his daughter

I mean, I'm not gonna be a father, but still. Good song.
Final Battle:

Hey Jealousy- Gin Blossom
I couldn't wait to see what this one was. I was disappointed.

Death Scene:

Blood on My Hands- The Used
Umm...ok.

Funeral Song:

Ain't No Rest for the Wicked- Cage the Elephant
Haha. That works.

End Credit:

Had Enough- Breaking Benjamin
Good ending, if I hadn't died and had a funeral already.


I don't even know if you are supposed to tag people in this, but if so, I tag anyone that wants to play along!

The One Where I Show Blogger What's What

I have about a fifteen minute window now-a-days to read and comment on all of your lovely blogs. So when that fifteen minute window came today, I was all "YAY ME!" and then BLOGGER decided that I am not worthy of commenting and would.not.let.me. But does that stop me? No. I'm a rebel.

The Onion- On your post about blaming everything on The Rapture, I was GONNA say...

I blame everything on someone or something. I may steal this idea.

Mrs. Hyde and Bruce- On Bruce's guest post... I was GONNA say...

I will be saying f*ck for the rest of the evening now.

Amy-On your post about what you've been up to...I was GONNA say...

I've missed you, but busy is good. And LOL about signing up for the wrong 401k. Hee Hee. **

Meg O.- On your post about your new living room...I was GONNA say...

I absolutely love the first pic and would totally move in with you if you were to ask. Just sayin'. Bowen and Dexter could be BFFs.

The Empress- On your post about pimping oneself and your anniversary...I was GONNA say...

I would love to pimp myself out BUT I CANNOT COMMENT!! Oh and btw, congrats!

Barb- On your post about your letter A

LOL that makes me giggle. I'm going to write my emails at work like that for the rest of the week. :)

And that's all the further I got. Stupid 15 minute window.

Off to meet with a potential DJ!

** Edit- Amy, I have no clue why I said 401k. Ok, yes I do, I was rushed. I know that you signed up for the wrong RUNNING group. Not retirement plan. :)
