It's A Hard Knock Life
I'd kill to have the problems of a three-year old right now. Their only important life choices are playtime, snack-time and nap-time!

The Odd Couple
Why were Marty and Doc hanging out in the first place? It's not like Marty seemed like the science type?
Thing-a-ma-jig
Auto Zone should have a "Girl" button. When pressed, a trained expert would appear to decipher the "whatchamacallit" and "doohickey" that lady is looking for!! In the end, everyone wins...frustrated but winning!!

Seperated At Birth??
Doesn't GOP Presidential Candidate, Jon Huntsman, resemble the actor, Christoper McDonald, who always played "That Douchey Guy" in all those 1990's movies??
Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman
Christopher McDonald
Huh? Huh??

Jesus H. Christ
I am not the only guilty party who's said it. But have you ever wondered what in the H does the H stand for?? I did some research (God BLESS Wikipedia HA!) and this is what I discovered from multiple (unverified) sources:
From http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-jes1.htm
- There have been various theories, but the one that seems most plausible is that it comes from the Greek monogram for Jesus, IHS or IHC. This is formed from the first two letters plus the last letter of His name in Greek (the letters iota, eta, and sigma; in the second instance, the C is a Byzantine Greek form of sigma). The H is actually the capital letter form of eta, but churchgoers who were unfamiliar with Greek took it to be a Latin H.
It's HILARIOUS people think Jesus had a middle name!!!

The oath does indeed seem to be American, first recorded in print at the end of the nineteenth century, although around 1910 Mark Twain wrote in his Autobiographythat the expression had been in use about 1850 and was considered old even then. Its long survival must have a lot to do with its cadence, and the way that an especially strong emphasis can be placed on the H.
Nineteenth-century Americans weren’t the first to take the Greek letters to be Latin ones — since medieval times the monogram has often been expanded into Latin phrases, such as Iesus Hominum Salvator, Jesus Saviour of Men, In Hoc Signo (vinces), in this sign (thou shalt conquer), and In Hac Salus, in this (cross) is salvation.
Wikipedia states all this and adds that it may (and I use may loosely) stand for Hallowed or Harold (which was a mispronunciation of Hallowed).
