Ever have the opposite of writer's block? You know the scenario where your mind is spinning with so many timely topics and ideas that you can't choose just one? Here are a few that didn't quite make the cut:TOP 5 REJECTED BLOG TOPICS
5. "Barney Is Dead" - Tips on how to explain to your two-year-old that Barney has gone the way of all dinosaurs and is now extinct - along with all of his DVDs and CD soundtracks. We can continue to be a "happy family", just without purple T-Rexes.
4. "In Your Face(book)" - What to do when you no longer recognize all of your "friends" on facebook and are inundated by constant updates such as "Taking my dog Fluffy to the groomer, then stopping by my doctor to have a hemorrhoid checked out." TMI anyone?
3. "D.C. Overexposure" - Coping with a president who seems to never stop campaigning although he has already been elected. Maybe some of my hard-earned stimulous dollars can go toward buying this guy his own TV network so he doesn't keep bumping my favorite shows? Just a thought.
2. "That Sinking Feeling" - Channeling your inner plumber to cope with good sinks that go bad. (As in your son accidentally knocks a candle into your porcelain sink and shatters it. But if Murph had not done this, I probably would have!)And the #1 Rejected Blog Topic:
1. "When April Fool's Pranks Go Wrong" - Repairing relationships with friends, family, and co-workers in the aftermath of a tall tale involving bicycles, croissants, and berets.
Talk to you soon. Until then, remember to pick up the pace and run your own race.

Hokie,
Dont perp the Barney is dead CONspiracy on Baby A.
Regarding the shattered sink. My boy Murph gave me the inside line on what occurred.
Let me translate into my own words what Murph told me.
You had just exited the the Chamber of Grunt and Groan. With a twinkle in your eye and a piece of toilet tissue stuck to the left heel of your NIKE waffle trainers, and gleefully said "Be Careful Son That Vegetable Medley Has Got Me Churning".
Murph being wise beyond his years make a detour to obtain the necessary tools to defeat the wallpaper staining, shower curtain fading, misty cloud of vaporized poop pellets. Armed with a large candle of Vanilla Cinnamon aroma, and a box of matches he dared to enter the chamber of intentinal distress.
Entering with the determination of a trained Navy SEAL, with the clear intention of saving Jackie and Baby A from a day of watery eyes and odor induced nausea he attempted to srike a match to light the candle. The foul stentch grabbed ahold of him like a fat girl grabs a dance partner at the senior prom he became light headed. Not thinking about his own health he refused to be defeated. He bravely tried to fight off the smelly sin which mortal men would flee from in fear, however without the needed self contained breathing apparatus he became light headed. Faling in to a state of unconsciousness he spun to the floor dropping the candle into the sink.
Murph should awarded the Brown Medal of Valor.
