Tra la la la! It's Thursday

Wow, there's 4 1/2 days of school left!!! OMIGOSH!!! Now, I know today is the 3rd, so I'm writing this...a bit belatedly, but HAPPY INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN'S DAY! June 1st was Children's day, so yay!!! I'm going to give you a big ol' list of countries, and their Children's Day dates. The list only goes up to Pakistan, so if you want to know more, just go to Wikipedia! :P That's where I got most of this!

Let me ask my questions, and then if you feel like just skimming through a couple of the dates, click "read more". I feel so happy that I get to use it!

1.If you were a worm, how long would you be? 

2.What would you want to be written on your tombstone?
3.When you looked in the mirror first thing this morning, what was the first thing you thought?

4.If Superman is so smart, why does he wear his underpants over his trousers? 

5.Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

6.Why isn't there a special name for the tops of your feet? 

Luv, Lynda
