Bud's World



Totally useless information:

· On a Canadian two-dollar bill, the flag flying over the Canadian Parliament building is an American flag.
· Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.
· Peanuts are one of the ingredients in dynamite.

How to Lead a Church Choir

“Leading a church choir takes a caring, yet stern and experienced choir director. The director must be determined, ready to work hard and have ample supply of prayers in time of need. The rewards and joys of a full choir singing religious songs during a service are triumphant. Follow these steps to realize this dream…
1. Organize all the formalities for an exciting and successful church choir. Set short-term goals and long term goals. Have a room with chairs, a dry erase board or blackboard, a piano, and someone to accompany the singers and schedule a weekly rehearsal.”
[eHow] (continued next week)

I was just wondering:

· Can you cry under water?
· What disease did “cured ham” actually have?
· Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
· How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
· How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
· Why do you have to “put your two cents in”…but it's only a “penny for your thoughts?” Where's that extra penny going?
· Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?
