10 of Daddy's Rules for Dating
Rule One:
If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering
a package, becasue you're sure not picking anything up.
Rule Two:
You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance
at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If
you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I
will remove them.
Rule Three:
I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age
to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling
off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all
of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and
open minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise:
You may come to the door with your underwear showing and
your pants ten sizes to big, and I will not object. However, in
order to ensure that your clothes do no, infact come off during
the course of you date with my daughter, I will take my electric
nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.
Rule Four:
I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without
utilizing a "Barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me
elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrrier, and I will kill
you.
Rule Five:
It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each
other, we should talk aobut sports, politics, and other issues of
the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require
from you is an indication of when you expect to have my
duaghter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from
you on this subject is: early."
Rule Six:
I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many
opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as
it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out
with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until
she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you
cry.
Rule Seven:
As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to
appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget.
If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be
dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process than
can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of
just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like
changing the oil in my car?
Rule Eight:
The following places are not appropriate for a date with my
daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer
than a wooden stool. Places where there is darkness. PLaces
where there is dancing,holding hands, or happiness. Places
where the ambient temperature is warm enough to introduce my
duaghter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything
othere than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka - zipped
up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme
are to be avoided; movies which features chan saws are okay.
Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes
are better.
Rule Nine:
Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a potbellied, balding,
middle-aged, dimwitted has-been. But on issues relating to my
daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe.
If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one
chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the
truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the
house. Do not trifle with me.
Rule Ten:
Be afraid,. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake
the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in
over a rice paddy near Hanoi. When my Agent Orange stargts
acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the
guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as
you pull into the driveways you should exit the car with both
hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in
a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely
and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to
come inside. The camoflaged face at the window is mine.
Send this to 0 people and you will never get a date
Send this to 1 -5 people only dorky people will be attracted to you
Send this to 5-10 people you will get asked out, but it won't amount
to much
10 + you will live a charmed life, and will have lots of dates.

1. If they want to loan you money, tell them you just filed for bankruptcy and
you could sure use some money. Ask, "How long can I keep it? Do I have to
ever pay it back, or is it like the other money I borrowed before my
bankruptcy?"
2. If you get one of those pushy people who won't shut up, just listen to their
sales pitch. When they try to close the sale, tell them that you'll need to go get
your credit card. Then, just set the phone down and go do laundry, shopping or
whatever. See how long that commission based scum waits for you to get your
credit card.
3. If they start out with, "How are you today?" say, "Why do you want to
know?" Or you can say, "I'm so glad you asked, because no one seems to care
these days and I have all these problems, my sciatica is acting up, my eyelashes
are sore, my dog just died...." When they try to get back to the sales process, just
continue on with telling about your problems.
4. If the person says he's Joe Doe from the ABC Company, ask him to spell his
name, then ask him to spell the company name, then ask where it is located.
Continue asking personal questions or questions about the company for as long
as necessary.
5. This one works better if you are male: Telemarketer: "Hi, my name is Julie
and I'm with Dodger & Peck Services.... You: "Hang on a second." (few seconds
pause) "Okay, (in a really husky voice) what are you wearing?"
6. Crying out, in well-simulated tones of pleasure and surprise, "Julie!! Is this
really you? I can't believe it! Julie, how have you BEEN?" Hopefully, this will
give Julie a few brief moments of terror as she tries to figure out where the heck
she could know you from.
7. Say, "No," over and over. Be sure to vary the sound of each no, and keep an
even tempo even as they're trying to speak. This is the most fun if you can keep
going until they hang up.
8. If MCI calls trying to get you to sign up with their Family and Friends plan,
reply, in as sinister a voice as you can muster, "I don't have any friends...would
you be my friend?"
9. If they clean rugs: "Can you get blood out, you can? Well, how about goat
blood or HUMAN blood - chicken blood too?"
10. Let the person go through their spiel, providing minimal but necessary
feedback in the form of an occasional "Uh-huh, really, or, "That's fascinating."
Finally, when they ask you to buy, ask them to marry you. They get all flustered,
but just tell them you couldn't give your credit card number to someone who's a
complete stranger.
11. Tell them you work for the same company they work for. Example:
Telemarketer: "This is Bill from Widget & Associates." You: "Widget &
Associates!! Hey I work for them too. Where are you calling from?"
Telemarketer: "Uh, Dallas, Texas." You: "Great, they have a group there too?
How's business/the weather? Too bad the company has a policy against selling
to employees! Oh well, see ya."
12. Tell the Telemarketer you are busy and if they will give you their phone
number you will call them back. If they say they are not allowed to give out
their number, then ask them for their home number and tell them you will call
them at home (this is usually the most effective method of getting rid of
Telemarketers). If the person says, "Well, I don't really want to get a call at
home," say, "Yeah! Now you know how I feel." (smiling, of course...)
Ways to reject pick-up lines
1.) Man: "Haven't we met before?"
Woman: "Yes, I'm the receptionist at the V.D. Clinic."
3.) Man: "So, wanna go back to my place?"
Woman: "Well, I don't know. Will two people fit under a rock?"
4.) Man: "I'd really like to get into your pants."
Woman: "No thanks. There's already one asshole in there."
5.) The most memorable rebuttal to a turn down (used by the guy who
used to live across the hall from me in residence) when he asked a girl to
dance and she refused:
Man: "Want to Dance?"
Woman: "No, thank you."
Man: "Don't thank me, thank God somebody asked you."
6.) Man: "I'd like to call you. What's your number?"
Woman: "It's in the phone book."
Man: "But I don't know your name."
Woman: "That's in the phone book too."
7.) Man: "So what do you do for a living?"
Woman: "Female impersonator."
8.) And here's one including the correct snappy return
Man: "How do you like your eggs in the morning?"
Woman: "Unfertilized, screw off!"
9.) A girlfriend of mine once had a graying man in his 60's approach
her in a club while she was in college with the line,"Where have you been
all my life?" She took one glance at him and said, "For the first half
of it, I probably wasn't born yet."
10.) A friend of mine came up with a very quick response over vacation.
We were walking down the street and I glanced at a girl who had just
walked by. She turned around and said to me, "What are you looking at?"
My friend, walking next to me came to the rescue, "He thought you were
good looking, but he was mistaken."
11.) While at college, a few friends were discussing how their "passes"
had been rejected by the intended female receiver. One of the ladies
explained how she handled it once...
When the guy, obviously getting irritated, blurted out something like,
"Hey, come on, we're both here at this bar for the same reason!"
She responded, "Yeah! Let's pick up some chicks!" He immediately
blanched, and decided that maybe he would look someplace else.
12.) "Sorry, I don't date outside my species."

40 MISTAKES MEN MAKE WHILE HAVING SEX WITH WOMEN
1) NOT KISSING FIRST.
Avoiding her lips and diving straight for the erogenous zones makes her
feel like you're paying by the hour and trying to get your money's worth by
cutting out nonessentials. A proper passionate kiss is the ultimate form of
foreplay.
2) BLOWING TOO HARD IN HER EAR.
Admit it, some kid at school told you girls love this. Well, there's a
difference between being erotic and blowing as if you're trying to extinguish
the candles on your 50th birthday cake. That hurts.
3) NOT SHAVING.
You often forget you have a porcupine strapped to your chin which you rake
repeatedly across your partner's face and thighs. When she turns her head
from side to side, it's not passion, it's avoidance.
4) SQUEEZING HER BREAST.
Most men act like a housewife testing a melon for ripeness when they get
their hand on a pair. Stroke, caress, and smooth them.
5) BITING HER NIPPLES.
Why do men fasten onto a woman's nipples, then clamp down like they're
trying to deflate her body via her breasts? Nipples are highly sensitive.
They can't stand up to chewing. Lick and suck them gently. Flicking your
tongue across them is good. Pretending they're a dogie toy isn't.
6) TWIDDLING HER NIPPLES.
Stop doing that thing where you twiddle the nipples between finger and
thumb like you're trying to find a radio station in a hilly area. Focus on
the whole breasts, not just the exclamation points.
7) IGNORING THE OTHER PARTS OF HER BODY.
A woman is not a highway with just three turnoffs: Breastville East and
West, and the Midtown Tunnel. There are vast areas of her body which you've
ignored far too often as you go bombing straight into downtown Vagina. So
start paying them some attention.
8) GETTING THE HAND TRAPPED.
Poor manual dexterity in the underskirt region can result in tangled
fingers and underpants. If you're going to be that aggressive, just ask her
to take the damn things off.
9) LEAVING HER A LITTLE PRESENT.
Condom disposal is the man's responsibility. You wore it, you store it.
10) ATTACKING THE CLITORIS.
Direct pressure is very unpleasant, so gently rotate your fingers along
side of the clitoris.
11) STOPPING FOR A BREAK.
Women, unlike men, don't pick up where they left off. If you stop, they
plummet back to square one very fast. If you can tell she's not there, keep
going at all costs, numb jaw or not.
12) UNDRESSING HER AWKWARDLY.
Women hate looking stupid, but stupid she will look when naked at the
waist with a sweater stuck over her head. Unwrap her like an elegant present,
not a kid's toy.
13) GIVING HER A WEDGIE DURING FOREPLAY.
Stroking her gently through her panties can be very sexy. Pulling the
material up between her thighs and yanking it back and forth is not.
14) BEING OBSESSED WITH THE VAGINA.
Although most men can find the clitoris without maps, they still believe
that the vagina is where it's all at. No sooner is your hand down there than
you're trying to stuff stolen banknotes up a chimney. This is okay in
principle, but if you're not careful, it can hurt - so don't get carried
away. It's best to pay more attention to her clitoris and the exterior of her
vagina at first, then gently slip a finger inside her and see if she likes
it.
15) MASSAGING TOO ROUGHLY.
You're attempting to give her a sensual, relaxing massage to get her in
the mood. Hands and fingertips are okay; elbows and knees are not.
16) UNDRESSING PREMATURELY.
Don't force the issue by stripping before she's at least made some move
toward getting your stuff off, even if it's just undoing a couple of buttons.
17) TAKING YOUR PANTS OFF FIRST.
A man in socks and underpants is a at his worst. Lose the socks fist.
18) GOING TOO FAST.
When you get to the penis-in-vagina situation, the worst thing you can do
is pump away like an industrial power tool - she'll soon feel like an
assembly-line worker made obsolete by your technology. Build up slowly, with
clean, straight, regular thrusts.
19) GOING TOO HARD.
If you bash your great triangular hip bones into her thigh or stomach, the
pain is equal to two weeks of horseback riding concentrated into a few
seconds.
20) COMING TOO SOON.
Every man's fear. With reason. If you shoot before you see the whites of
her eyes, make sure you have a backup plan to ensure her pleasure too.
21) NOT COMING SOON ENOUGH.
It may appear to you that humping for an hour without climaxing is the
mark of a sex god, but to her it's more likely the mark of a numb vagina. At
least buy some intriguing wall hangings, so she has something to hold her
interest while you're playing Marathon Man.
22) ASKING IF SHE HAS COME.
You really ought to be able to tell. Most women make noise. But if you
really don't know, don't ask
23) PERFORMING ORAL SEX TOO GENTLY.
Don't act like a giant cat at a saucer of milk. Get your whole mouth down
there, and concentrate on gently rotating or flicking your tongue on her
clitoris.
24) NUDGING HER HEAD DOWN.
Men persist in doing this until she's eyeball-to-penis, hoping that it
will lead very swiftly to mouth-to-penis. All women hate this. It's about
three steps from being dragged to a cave by their hair. If you want her to
use her mouth, use yours; try talking seductively to her.
25) NOT WARNING HER BEFORE YOU CLIMAX.
Sperm tastes like sea water mixed with egg white. Not everybody likes it.
When she's performing oral sex, warn her before you come so she can do what's
necessary.
26) MOVING AROUND DURING FELLATIO.
Don't thrust. She'll do all the moving during fellatio. You just lie
there. And don't grab her head.
27) TAKING ETIQUETTE ADVICE FROM PORN MOVIES.
In X-rated movies, women seem to love it when men ejaculate over them. In
real life, it just means more laundry to do.
28) MAKING HER RIDE ON TOP FOR AGES.
Asking her to be on top is fine. Lying there grunting while she does all
the hard work is not. Caress her gently, so that she doesn't feel quite so
much like the captain of a schooner. And let her have a rest.
29) ATTEMPTING ANAL SEX AND PRETENDING IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
This is how men earn a reputation for not being able to follow directions.
If you want to put it there, ask her first. And don't think that being drunk
is an excuse.
30) TAKING PICTURES.
When a man says, "Can I take a photo of you?" she'll hear the words "__to
show my buddies." At least let her have custody of them.
31) NOT BEING IMAGINATIVE ENOUGH.
Imagination is anything from drawing patterns on her back to pouring honey
on her and licking it off. Fruit, vegetables, ice and feathers are all handy
props; hot candle wax and permanent dye are a no no.
32) SLAPPING YOUR STOMACH AGAINST HERS.
There is no less erotic noise. It's as sexy as a belching contest.
33) ARRANGING HER IN STUPID POSES.
If she wants to do advanced yoga in bed, fine, but unless she's a Romanian
gymnast, don't get too ambitious. Ask yourself if you want a sexual partner
with snapped hamstrings.
34) LOOKING FOR HER PROSTATE.
Read this carefully: Anal stimulation feels good for men because they have
a prostate. Women don't.
35) GIVING LOVE BITES.
It is highly erotic to exert some gentle suction on the sides of the neck,
if you do it carefully. No woman wants to have to wear turtlenecks and jaunty
scarves for weeks on end.
36) BARKING INSTRUCTIONS.
Don't shout encouragement like a coach with a megaphone. It's not a big
turn-on.
37) TALKING DIRTY.
It makes you sound like a lonely magazine editor calling a 1-900 line. If
she likes nasty talk, she'll let you know
38) NOT CARING WHETHER SHE COMES.
You have to finish the job. Keep on trying until you get it right, and she
might even do the same for you.
39) SQUASHING HER.
Men generally weigh more than women, so if you lie on her a bit too
heavily, she will turn blue.
40) THANKING HER.
Never thank a woman for having sex with you. Your bedroom is not a soup
kitchen.
send this to everyone you know or else you'll have bad sex for ever!!!

Don't call me a Generation X-er
I am a child of the eighties what I prefer to be called. The nineties can do without me. Grunge isn't here to stay, fashion is fickle and "Generation X" is a myth created by some over-40 writer trying to figure out why people wear flannel in the summer. When I got home from school, I played with my Atari 2600. I spent hours playing Pitfall or Combat or Breakout or Dodge'em Cars or Frogger. I never did beat Asteroids. Then I watched "Scooby Doo." Daphne was a Goddess, and I thought Shaggy was smoking something synthetic in the back of their psychedelic van. I hated Scrappy. I would sleep over at friends' houses on the weekends. We played army with G.I. Joe figures, and I set up galactic wars between Autobots and Decepticons. We stayed up half the night throwing marshmallows and Velveeta at one another. We never beat the Rubik's Cube. I got up on Saturday mornings at 6 a.m. to watch bad Hanna-Barbera cartoons like "The Snorks," "Jabberjaw," "Captain Caveman," and "SpaceGhost." In between I would watch "School House Rock." ("Conjunction junction, what's your function?") On weeknights Daisy Duke was my future wife. I was going to own the General Lee and shoot dynamite arrows out the back. Why did they weld the doors shut? At the movies the Nerds got Revenge on the Alpha Betas by teaming up with the Omega Mus. I watched Indiana Jones save the Ark of the Covenant, and wondered what Yoda meant when he said, "No, there is another." Ronald Reagan was cool. Gorbachev was the guy who built a McDonalds in Moscow. My family took summer vacations to the Gulf of Mexico and collected "Muppet Movie" glasses along the way. (We had the whole set.) My siblings and I fought in the back seat. At the hotel we found creative uses for Connect Four pieces like throwing them in that big air conditioning unit. I listened to John Cougar Mellencamp sing about Little Pink Houses for Jack and Diane. I was bewildered by Boy George and the colors of his dreams, red, gold, and green. MTV played videos. Nickelodeon played "You Can't Do That on Television" and "Dangermouse." Cor! HBO showed Mike Tyson pummel everybody except Robin Givens, the bad actress from "Head of the Class" who took all Mike's cashflow. I drank Dr. Pepper. "I'm a Pepper, you're a Pepper, wouldn't you like to be a Pepper, too?" Shasta was for losers. TAB was a laboratory accident. Capri Sun was a social statement. Orange juice wasn't just for breakfast anymore, and bacon had to move over for something meatier. My mom put a thousand Little Debbie Snack Cakes in my Charlie Brown lunch box, and filled my Snoopy Thermos with grape Kool-Aid. I would never eat the snack cakes, though. Did anyone? I got two thousand cheese and cracker snack packs, and I ate those. I went to school and had recess. I went to the same classes everyday. Some weird guy from the eighth grade always won the science fair with the working hydro-electric plant that leaked on my project about music and plants. They just loved Beethoven. Field day was bigger than Christmas,but it always managed to rain just enough to make everybody miserable before they fell over in the three-legged race. Where did all those panty hose come from? "Deck the Halls with Gasoline, fa la la la la la la la la," was just a song. Burping was cool. Rubber band fights were cooler.substitute teacher was a baby sitter/marked woman. Nobody deserved that. I went to Cub Scouts. I got my arrow-of-light, but never managed to win the Pinewood Derby. I got almost every skill award but don't remember ever doing anything. The world stopped when the Challenger exploded. Half of your friends'parents got divorced. People did not just say no to drugs. AIDS started, but you knew more people who had a grandparent die from cancer. Somebody in your school died before they graduated. When you put all this stuff together, you have my childhood. If this stuff sounds familiar, then I bet you are one, too. We are children of the eighties. That is what I prefer "they" call it. We are the children of the Eighties. We are not the first "lost generation" nor today's lost generation; in fact, we think we know just where we stand - or are discovering it as we speak. We are the ones who played with Lego Building Blocks when they were just building blocks and gave Malibu Barbie crewcuts with safety scissors that never really cut. We collected Garbage Pail Kids and Cabbage Patch Kids and My Little Ponies and Hot Wheels and He-Man action figures and thought She-Ra looked just a little bit like I would when I was a woman. Big Wheels and bicycles with streamers were the way to go, and sidewalk chalk was all you needed to build a city. Imagination was the key. It made the Ewok Treehouse big enough for you to be Luke and the kitchen table and an old sheet dark enough to be a tent in the forest. Your world was the backyard and it was all you needed. With your pink portable tape player,Debbie Gibson sang back up to you and everyone wanted a skirt like the Material Girl and a glove like Michael Jackson's. Today, we are the ones who sing along with Bruce Springsteen and The Bangles perfectly and have no idea why. We recite lines with the Ghostbusters and still look to The Goonies for a great adventure. We flip through T.V. stations and stop at The A Team and Knight Rider and Fame and laugh with The Cosby Show and Family Ties and Punky Brewster and what you talkin' 'bout Willis? We hold strong affections for The Muppets and The GUMMY BEARS and why did they take the Smurfs off the air? After school specials were only about cigarettes and step-families. The Pokka Dot Door was nothing like Barney, and aren't the Power Rangers just Voltron reincarnated? We are the ones who stNancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, the Bobbsey Twins, Beverly Clearly and Judy Blume, Richard Scary and the Electric Company. Friendship bracelets were ties you couldn't break and friendship pins went on shoes; preferably hightop Velcro Reebox - and pegged jeans were in, as were Units belts and layered socks and jean jackets and jams and charm necklaces and side pony tails and just tails. Rave was a girl's best friend; braces with colored rubberbands made you cool. The backdoor was always open and Mom served only red Kool-Aid to the neighborhood kids- never drank New Coke. Entertainment was cheap and lasted for hours. All you needed to be a princess was high heels and an apron; the Sit'n'Spin always made you dizzy but never made you stop; Pogoballs were dangerous weapons and Chinese Jump Ropes never failed to trip someone. In your Underoos you were Wonder Woman or Spider Man or R2D2 and in your treehouse you were king. In the Eighties, nothing was wrong. Did you know the president was shot? Star Wars was not only a movie. Did you ever play in a bomb shelter? Did you see the Challenger explode or feed the homeless man? We forgot Vietnam and watched Tiananman's Square on CNN and bought pieces of the Berlin Wall at the store. AIDS was not the number one killer in the United States. We didn't start the fire, Billy Joel. In the Eighties, we redefined the American Dream, and those years defined us. We are the generation in between strife and facing strife and not turning our backs. The Eighties may have made us idealistic, but it's that idealism that will push us and be passed on to our children - the first children of the twenty-first century. Never forget: We are the children of the Eighties. If this is familiar, you are one of us... pass it on to all the others...

A Case For The FBI
------------------
The phone rings at FBI headquarters.
"Hello?"
"Hello, is this FBI?"
"Yes. What do you want?"
"I'm calling to report my neighbor Tom. He is hiding
marijuana in his firewood."
"This will be noted."
Next day, the FBI comes over to Tom's house. They
search the shed where the firewood is kept, break
every piece of wood, find no marijuana, swear at Tom
and leave.
The phone rings at Tom's house.
"Hey, Tom! Did the FBI come?"
"Yeah!"
"Did they chop your firewood?"
"Yeah they did."
"Okay, now it's your turn to call. I need my
garden plowed."
CHRISTMAS JUST WASN'T THE SAME.
It was supposed to be a happy time, but it wasn't. Santa was really pissed. It was
Christmas eve and NOTHING was going right. Mrs. Claus had burned all the
Christmas cookies. The Elves were complaining about not getting paid for the
overtime they had put in while making toys, and the reindeer had been drinking
all afternoon and were dead drunk. They had taken the sleigh out for a spin
earlier in the day and crashed it into a tree, breaking off one of the runners.
Santa was beside himself with anger. "I CAN"T believe it! I've got to deliver
millions of presents all over the world in just a few hours from now and all my
reindeer are drunk, my Elves are on strike and I don't even have a Christmas
tree! I sent that stupid Little Angel out HOURS ago to find a tree and he isn't
even back yet! What am I going to do?".
Just then the Little Angel opened the front door and stepped in from the snowy
night, dragging a Christmas tree. He says: "Yo, Santa, where do you want me to
stick the Christmas Tree this year???"
And thus the tradition of Angels perched on top of the Christmas trees came to
pass. . . .
A Programmer's guide for Shoot_Self_in_Foot
How To Determine Which Programming Language You're Using
The proliferation of modern programming languages which seem to have stolen
countless features from each other sometimes makes it difficult to remember
which language you're using. This guide is offered as a public service to
help programmers in such dilemmas.
C: You shoot yourself in the foot.
Assembly: You crash the OS and overwrite the root disk. The system
administrator arrives and shoots you in the foot. After a moment of
contemplation, the administrator shoots himself in the foot and then hops
around the room rabidly shooting at everyone in sight.
APL: You hear a gunshot, and there's a hole in your foot, but you don't
remember enough linear algebra to understand what the hell happened.
C++: You accidentally create a dozen instances of yourself and shoot them
all in the foot. Providing emergency medical care is impossible since you
can't tell which are bitwise copies and which are just pointing at others
and saying, "that's me, over there."
Ada: If you are dumb enough to actually use this language, the United States
Department of Defense will kidnap you, stand you up in front of a firing
squad, and tell the soldiers, "Shoot at his feet."
Modula/2: After realizing that you can't actually accomplish anything in the
language, you shoot yourself in the head.
sh, csh, etc.: You can't remember the syntax for anything, so you spend five
hours reading man pages before giving up. You then shoot the computer and
switch to C.
Smalltalk: You spend so much time playing with the graphics and windowing
system that your boss shoots you in the foot, takes away your workstation,
and makes you develop in COBOL on a character terminal.
FORTRAN: You shoot yourself in each toe, iteratively, until you run out of
toes, then you read in the next foot and repeat. If you run out of bullets,
you continue anyway because you have no exception-processing ability.
Prolog: You tell your program that you want to be shot in the foot. The
program figures out how to do it, but the syntax doesn't permit it to
explain it to you.
Motif: You spend days writing a UIL description of your foot, the bullet,
its trajectory, and the intricate scrollwork on the ivory handles of the
gun. When you finally get around to pulling the trigger, the gun jams.
370 JCL: You send your foot down to MIS and include a 400-page document
explaining exactly how you want it to be shot. Three years later, your foot
comes back deep-fried.
Algol: You shoot yourself in the foot with a musket. The musket is
aesthetically fascinating, and the wound baffles the adolescent medic in the
emergency room.
COBOL: USEing a COLT45 HANDGUN, AIM gun at LEG.FOOT, THEN place
ARM.HAND.FINGER on HANDGUN.TRIGGER, and SQUEEZE. THEN return HANDGUN to
HOLSTER. Check whether shoelace needs to be retied.
BASIC: Shoot self in foot with water pistol. On big systems, continue until
entire lower body is waterlogged.
PL/I: You consume all available system resources, including all the offline
bullets, The Data Processing & Payroll Department doubles its size, triples
its budget, acquires four new mainframes, and drops the original one on your
foot.
SNOBOL: You grab your foot with your hand, then rewrite your hand to be a
bullet. The act of shooting the original foot then changes your hand/bullet
into yet another foot (a left foot).
lisp: You shoot yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with which you
shoot yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with which you shoot
yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with which you shoot yourself
in the appendage which holds...
scheme: You shoot yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with
which you shoot yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with
which you shoot yourself in the appendage which holds the gun with
which you shoot yourself in the appendage which holds...
...but none of the other appendages are aware of this happening.
FORTH: begin gun foot shot bullets not or blood until
English: You put your foot in your mouth, then bite it off.
Apple: We'll let you shoot yourself, but it'll cost you a bundle.
IBM: You insert a clip into the gun, wait half an hour, and it goes off in
random directions. If a bullet hits your foot, you're lucky.
Microsoft: Object "Foot" will be included in the next release. You can
upgrade for $500.
Microsoft: You can shoot yourself in the foot, but the method is buried in
the docs somewhere.
Cray: I knew you were going to shoot yourself in the foot.
Hewlett-Packard: You can use this machine-gun to shoot yourself in the foot,
but the firing pin is broken.
NeXT: We don't sell guns anymore, just ammunition.
SCO Open Desktop SCOPaint: You shoot yourself in the foot with a popgun.
Sun: Just as soon as Solaris gets here, you can shoot yourself anywhere you
want.
There were two evil brothers. They were rich, and used their money to keep
their evil ways from the public eye. They even attended the same church, and
appeared to be perfect Christians.
Then, their pastor retired, and a new one was hired. Not only could the new
pastor see right through the brothers' deception, but he also spoke well and
true, and the church membershhip grew in numbers. A fund-raising campaign was
started to build a new assembly.
All of a sudden, one of the brothers died. The remaining brother sought out
the new pastor the day before the funeral and handed him a check for the
amount needed to finish paying for the new building.
I have only one condition," he said. "At the funeral, you must say my brother
was a saint." The pastor gave his word, and deposited the check.
The next day, at the funeral, the pastor did not hold back. "He was an evil
man," he said. "He cheated on his wife and abused his family." After going on
like this, he finally concluded, "but, compared to his brother, he was a
saint."
A Soap Misunderstanding
Attached is some correspondence which actually occurred between a London
hotel's staff and one of its guests. The London hotel involved submitted this
to the Sunday Times. No name was mentioned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Maid,
Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom
since I have brought my own bath-sized Dial. Please remove the six unopened
little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another three in the
shower soap dish. They are in my way. Thank you,
S. Berman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Room 635,
I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her day
off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you requested.
The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on top of your
Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind. This leaves only the 3
bars I left today which my instructions from the management is to leave 3
soaps daily. I hope this is satisfactory.
Kathy,
Relief Maid
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
--
Dear Maid -- I hope you are my regular maid.
Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning the little
bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening I found you had added 3
little Camays to the shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to be here
in the hotel for two wee ks and have brought my own bath-size Dial so I won't
need those 6 little Camays which are on the shelf. They are in my way when
shaving, brushing teeth, etc. Please remove them.
S. Berman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

--
Dear Mr. Berman,
My day off was last Wed, so the relief maid left 3 hotel soaps which we are
instructed by the management. I took the 6 soaps which were in your way on
the shelf and put them in the soap dish where your Dial was. I put the Dial
in the medicine cabinet for your convenience. I didn't remove the 3
complimentary soaps which are always placed inside the medicine cabinet for
all new checkins and which you did not object to when you checked in last
Monday. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Your regular maid,
Dotty
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
The assistant manager, Mr. Kensedder, informed me this A.M. that you called
him last evening and said you were unhappy with your maid service. I have
assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you will accept my apologies for any
past inconvenience. If you have any future complaints please contact me so I
can give it my personal attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM.
Thank you.
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Miss Carmen,
It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for business
at 745 AM and don't get back before 530 or 6PM. That's the reason I called
Mr. Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. I only asked Mr.
Kensedder if he could do anythin g about those little bars of soap. The new
maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check-in today, since she
left another 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine cabinet along with her
regular delivery of 3 bars on thebath-room shelf. In just 5 day s here I have
accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you doing this to me?
S. Berman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your room
and remove the extra soaps. If I can be of further assistance, please call
extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. Thank you,
Elaine Carmen,
Housekeeper
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Kensedder,
My bath-size Dial is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my room
including my own bath-size Dial. I came in late last night and had to call
the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere Bouquets.
S. Berman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. I
cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our maids are
instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they service a room. The
situation will be rectified immediately. Please accept my apologies for the
inconvenience.
Martin L. Kensedder
Assistant Manager
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last night
and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little bars of Camay. I
want my one damn bar of bath-size Dial. Do you realize I have 54 bars of soap
in here. All I want is my ba th size Dial. Please give me back my bath-size
Dial.
S. Berman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
You complained of too much soap in your room so I had them removed. Then you
complained to Mr. Kensedder that all your soap was missing so I personally
returned them. The 24 Camays which had been taken and the 3 Camays you are
supposed to receive daily (s ic). I don't know anything about the 4 Cashmere
Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had returned your soaps
so she also brought 24 Camays plus the 3 daily Camays. I don't know where you
got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Dial. I was able to locate some bath
size Ivory which I left in your room.
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory. As of
today I possess:
On shelf under medicine cabinet - 18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
On Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 3.
On bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4 hotel-size
Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4.
Inside medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
In shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist.
On northeast corner of tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly used.
On northwest corner of tub - 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3.
Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are neatly
piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of more than 4 have a
tendency to tip. May I suggest that my bedroom window sill is not in use and
will make an excellen t spot for future soap deliveries. One more item, I
have purchased another bar of bath-sized Dial which I am keeping in the hotel
vault in order to avoid further misunderstandings.
S. Berman
A THANKSGIVING FORECAST
Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon
high near 190 F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother
the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.
During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will
slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on
plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce
creates slippery spots on the other. Please pass the gravy.
A weight watch and indigestion warning have been issued for the entire
area, with increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening,
the turkey will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of
34 F in the refrigerator.
Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will
be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50
percent chance of scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming
trend where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low
as the only wish left will be the bone.
A WOMAN'S RANDOM THOUGHTS
Skinny people piss me off! Especially when the say things like,
"You know sometimes I forget to eat." Now, I have forgotten my
address, my mother's maiden name, and my keys. But I've never
forgotten to eat. You have to be a special kind of stupid to
forget to eat.
A friend of mine confused her valium with her birth control
pills. She had 14 kids, but she doesn't give a damn.
They ;keep telling us to get in touch with our bodies. Mine
isn't all that communicative but I heard from it the other day
after I said, "Body, how'd you like to go th the six o'clock
class in vigorous toning?" Clear as a bell my body said, "listen
bitch. . . do it and die."
The trouble with some women is that they get all excited about
nothing (and then they marry him.)
I( read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are
eating too much, smokingtoo much, impulse buying, and driving too
fast. Are they kidding? That is my idea of a perfect day.
I know what Victoria's secret is. The secret is that nobody
older than 30 can fit into their stuff.
"If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties?
How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a noose around
your neck?"
Send this to five bright, cheery women you know and make their
day!
Well, I don't know about cheery, but you'll certainly make their
day.
A TO Z OF EX-BOYFRIENDS

Seems God was just about done creating the universe, but he
had two extra things left in his bag of creations. So, he decided
to split them between Adam and Eve. He told the couple that
one of the things he had to give away was the ability to stand
up while urinating.
"It's a very handy thing," God told the couple, who he found
under an apple tree. "I was wondering if either one of you
wanted the ability".
Adam jumped up and blurted, "Oh, give that to me! I'd love to!
Please, oh please, oh please, let me have that ability. It'd be so
great! When I'm out working in the garden or naming the
animals, I could just stand there and let it fly! It'd be so cool, I
could write my name in the sand. Oh, please God, let it be me
who you give that gift to, let me stand and pee, oh please!!"
On and on he went, like an excited little boy who...well...had to
pee. Eve just smiled and told God that if Adam really wanted
that so badly, that he should have it. it seemed to be the sort of
thing that would make him happy, and she really wouldn't mind
if Adam were the one given this ability.
And so, Adam was given the ability to control the direction of
his micturition while in a vertical position. He was so happy, he
celebrated by wetting down the bark on the tree nearest him,
laughing with delight all
the while.
And it was good."Fine," God said, looking back into his bag of
leftover gifts, "What's left in here?" "Oh yes," he said,
"Multiple orgasms..."
A married man was having an affair with his secretary. One
day, their passions overcame them and they took off for her
house, where they made passionate love all afternoon.
Exhausted from the wild sex, they fell asleep, awaking around
eight p.m. As the man threw on his clothes, he told the woman
to take his shoes outside and rub them through the grass and
dirt.
Mystified, she nonetheless complied. He slipped into his shoes
and drove home.
"Where have you been?"demanded his wife when he entered
the house.
"Darling", replied the man, "I can't lie to you. I've been having
an affair with my secretary and we've been having sex all
afternoon. I fell asleep and didn't wake up until eight o'clock."
The wife glanced down at his shoes and said, "You lying
bastard! You've been playing golf!"
AL GORE I AM
Can we count them with our nose?
Can we count them with our toes?
Should we count them with a band?
Should we count them all by hand?
If I do not like the count,
I will simply throw them out!
I will not let
this vote count stand.
I do not like them, AL GORE I am!
Can we change these numbers here?
Can we change them, calm my fears?
What do you mean, Dubya has won?
This is not fair, this is not fun.
Lets count them upside
down this time.
Lets count until the state is mine!
I will not let this VOTE count stand!
I do not like it, AL GORE I am!
I'm really ticked; I'm in a snit!
You have not heard the last of it!
I'll count the ballots one by one
And hold each one up to the sun!
I'll count, recount, and count some more!
You'll grow to hate this little chore.
But I will not, cannot let this vote count stand.
I do not like it, Al Gore I am!
I won't leave office, I'm stayin' here
I've glued my desk chair to my rear!
Tipper, Hillary, and Bubba too,

We do not want this vote to stand!
We do not like it, AL GORE I am!

And who shall count it, you or me?
We cannot, cannot count enough!
We must not stop, we must be tough!
I do not want this vote to stand!
I do not like it AL GORE I am!
I've counted till my fingers bleed
And still can't fulfill my counting need.
I'll count the tiles on the floor.
I'll count, and count, and count some more.
And I will not say that I am done
Until the counting says I've won!
I will not let this vote count stand!
I do not like it, AL GORE I am!
What's that?
What? What are you trying to say?
You think the current count should stay?
You do not like my counting scheme?
It makes you tense, gives you bad dreams?
Foolish people, you're wrong you'll see!
You're only care should be for me!
I WILL NOT LET THIS VOTE COUNT STAND!
I DO NOT LIKE IT. AND AL GORE I AM!

Somebody once told me da world is gonna love me
I'd have da finest girls and a Benz
But she was looking kinda dumb when she posed in Rolling Stone
With less clothes than could cover her forehead
Well, da hos start comin' and dey don't stop comin'
Look in da mirror and it's me I'm lovin'
Didn't make sense just to sing for fun,
Your pockets get fat but your head gets dumb
So much baby blue, so much for me
So why some of ya'll still like the Backstreets?
Ya'll musta never seen mah show
Ya'll never laid eyes on dis fine bro
Hey now, ah'm an All Star, get mah mack on, all day
Hey now, ah'm a Pop Star, get mah show on, get paid,

Mah world's on fire, how about yours?

Look in da mirror and it's me I'm lovin'

Mom and Dad were watching TV when Mom said, "I'm tired,
and it's getting late. I think I'll go to bed." She went to the
kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's lunches, rinsed
out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the freezer for supper
the following evening, checked the cereal box levels, filled the
sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the table, and started
the coffee pot for brewing the next morning.
She, then, put some wet clothes into the dryer, put a load of
clothes into the washer, ironed a shirt, and secured a loose
button. She picked upthe newspapers strewn on the floor, picked
up the game pieces left on the table, and put the phone book
back into the drawer. She watered the plants,emptied a
wastebasket, and hung up a towel to dry.
She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom. She
stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted out
some cash for the field trip, and pulled a schoolbook out from
hiding under a chair. She signed a birthday card for a friend,
addressed and stamped the envelope, and wrote a quick list for
the grocery store. She put both near her purse. She then, washed
her face, put on moisturizer, brushed and flossed her teeth.
Hubby called, "I thought you were going to bed."
"I'm on my way," she said. She put some water into the dog's
dish and put the cat outside, then made sure the doors were
locked. She looked in on each of The kids. She turned off a
bedside lamp, hung up a shirt, threw some dirty socks in the
hamper, and had a brief conversation with the one child who was
still awake doing homework. In her own room, she set the alarm,
laid out clothing for the next day, straightened up the shoe rack.
She added three things to her list of things to do for tomorrow.
About that time, hubby turned off the TV and announced, to no
one in particular, "I'm going to bed," and...he did.

Isn't it amazing how God works in our lives! On a Saturday night several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone. The pastor let it ring many times. He thought it was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.
The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night. The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer."
The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.
The man said, "That's OK. Let me tell you my story.
"You see, I was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this, give me a sign now.'
"At that point my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"
The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle!!
If you believe that God answers prayers then pass this on.
God bless,
A Texan farmer goes to Australia for a vacation. There he meets an Aussie
farmer and gets talking. The Aussie shows off his big wheat field and the Texan
says, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large."
Then they walk around the ranch a little, and the Aussie shows off his herd of
cattle. The Texan immediately says, "We have longhorns that are at least twice
as large as your cows."
The conversation has, meanwhile, almost died when the Texan sees a herd of
kangaroos hopping through the field. He asks, "And what are those?"
The Aussie replies with an incredulous look, "Don't you have grasshoppers in
Texas?"
Mrs. Ravioli comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner...who lives with a female roommate Maria... During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Anthony's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Anthony and his roommate than met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Anthony volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Maria and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Maria came to Anthony saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll e-mail her, just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Momma,
I'm not saying that you 'did' take the sugar bowl from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take it. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love, Anthony
Several days later, Anthony received a response e-mail from his Momma which read:
Dear Son,
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Maria, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the sugar bowl by now.
Love, Momma

Genesis 1
In the beginning God created Dates. And the date was Monday, July 4, 4004
B.C.. And God said, let there be light; and there was light. And when there was
Light, God saw the Date, that it was Monday, and he got down to work; for
verily, he had a Big Job to do.
And God made pottery shards and Silurian mollusks and pre-Cambrian
limestone strata; and flints and Jurassic Mastodon tusks and Picanthopus erectus
skulls and Cretaceous placentals made he; and those cave paintings at Lasceaux.
And that was that, for the first Work Day.
And God saw that he had made many wondrous things, but that he had not
wherein to put it all. And God said, Let the heavens be divided from the earth;
and let us bury all of these Things which we have made in the earth; but not too
deep. And God buried all the Things which he had made, and that was that. And
the morning and the evening and the overtime were Tuesday.
And God said, Let there be water; and let the dry land appear; and that was that.
And God called the dry land Real Estate; and the water called he the Sea. And in
the land and beneath it put he crude oil, grades one through six; and natural gas
put he thereunder, and prehistoric carboniferous forests yielding anthracite and
other ligneous matter; and all these called he Resources; and he made them
Abundant. And likewise all that was in the sea, even unto two hundred miles
from the dry land,called he resources; all that was therein, like manganese
nodules, for instance. And the morning unto the evening had been a long day;
which he called Wednesday.
And God said, Let the earth bring forth abundantly every moving creature I can
think of, with or without backbones, with or without wings or feet, or fins or
claws, vestigial limbs and all, right now ; and let each one be of a separate
species. For lo, I can make whatsoever I like, whensoever I like. And the earth
brought forth abundantly all creatures, great and small, with and without
backbones, with and without wings and feet and fins and claws, vestigial limbs
and all, from bugs to brontosauruses. But God blessed them all, saying, Be
fruitful and multiply and Evolve Not.
And God looked upon the species he hath made, and saw that the earth was
exceedingly crowded, and he said unto them, Let each species compete for what
it needed; for Healthy Competition is My Law. And the species competeth
amongst themselves, the cattle and the creeping things; and some madeth it and
some didn't; and the dogs ate the dinosaurs and God was pleased. And God took
the bones from the dinosaurs, and caused them to appear mighty old; and cast he
them about the land and the sea. And he took every tiny creature that had not
madeth it, and caused them to become fossils; and cast he them about likewise.
And just to put matters beyond the valley of the shadow of a doubt God created
carbon dating. And this is the origin of species. And in the Evening of the day
which was Thursday, God saw that he had put in another good day's work.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, which is tall
and well-formed and pale of hue: and let us also make monkeys, which
resembleth us not in any wise, but are short and ill-formed and hairy. And God
added, Let man have dominion over the monkeys and the fowl of the air and
every speices, endangered or otherwise. So God created Man in His own image;
tall and well-formed and pale of hue created He him, and nothing at all like the
monkey.
And God said, Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon
the face of the earth. But ye shalt not smoketh it, lest it giveth you ideas. And to
every beast of the earth and every fowl of the air I have given also every green
herb, and to them it shall be for meat. But hey shall be for you. And the Lord
God your Host suggesteth that the flesh of cattle goeth well with that of the fin
and the claw; thus shall Surf be wedded unto Turf.
And God saw everything he had made, and he saw that it was very good; and
God said, It just goes to show Me what the private sector can accomplish. With
a lot of fool regulations this could have taken billions of years. And the evening
of the fifth day, which had been the roughest day yet, God said, Thank me it's
Friday. And God made the weekend.
Angels, Once in a While
In September 1960, I woke up one morning with six hungry
babies and just 75 cents in my pocket. Their father was gone.
The boys ranged from three months to seven years; their sister
was two. Their Dad had never been much more than a presence
they feared. Whenever they heard his tires crunch on the gravel
driveway they would scramble to hide under their beds.
He did manage to leave 15 dollars a week to buy groceries. Now
that he had decided to leave, there would be no more beatings,
but no food either. If there was welfare system in effect in
southern Indiana at that time, I certainly knew nothing about it.
I scrubbed the kids until they looked brand new and then put on
my best homemade dress. I loaded them into the rusty old 51
Chevy and drove off to find a job. The seven of us went to every
factory, store and restaurant in our small town. No luck. The
kids stayed, crammed into the car and tried to be quiet while I
tried to convince whomever would listen that I was willing to
learn or do anything. I had to have a job. Still no luck.
The last place we went to, just a few miles out of town, was an
old Root Beer Barrel drive-in that had been converted to a truck
stop. It was called the Big Wheel. An old lady named Granny
owned the place and she peeked out of the window from time to
time to check on all those kids. She needed someone on the
graveyard shift, 11 at night until seven in the morning. She paid
65 cents an hour and I could start that night.
I raced home and called the teenager down the street that baby-
sat for people. I bargained with her to come and sleep on my
sofa for a dollar a night. She could arrive with her pajamas on
and the kids would already be asleep. This seemed like a good
arrangement to her, so we made a deal.
That night when me and the little ones knelt to say our prayers
we all thanked God for finding Mommy a job. And so I started
at the Big Wheel. When I got home in the mornings I woke the
baby-sitter up and sent her home with one dollar of my tip
money - fully half of what I averaged every night.
As the weeks went by, heating bills added another strain to my
meager wage. The tires on the old Chevy had the consistency of
penny balloons and began to leak. I had to fill them with air on
the way to work and again every morning before I could go
home.
One bleak fall morning, I dragged myself to the car to go home
and found four tires in the back seat. New tires! There was no
note, no nothing, just those beautiful brand new tires. Had angels
take up residence in Indiana? I wondered. I made a deal with the
owner of the local service station. In exchange for his mounting
the new tires, I would clean up his office. I remember it took me
a lot longer to scrub his floor than it did for him to do the tires.
I was now working six nights instead of five and it still wasn't
enough. Christmas was coming and I knew there would be no
money for toys for the kids. I found a can of red paint and started
repairing and painting some old toys. Then I hid them in the
basement so there would be something for Santa to deliver on
Christmas morning. Clothes were a worry too. I was sewing
patches on top of patches on the boys pants and soon they would
be too far gone to repair.
On Christmas Eve the usual customers were drinking coffee in
the Big Wheel. These were the truckers, Les, Frank, and Jim,
and a state trooper named Joe. A few musicians were hanging
around after a gig at the Legion and were dropping nickels in the
pinball machine. The regulars all just sat around and talked
through the wee hours of the morning and then left to get home
before the sun came up.
When it was time for me to go home at seven o'clock on
Christmas morning I hurried to the car. I was hoping the kids
wouldn't wake up before I managed to get home and get the
presents from the basement and place them under the tree. (We
had cut down a small cedar tree by the side of the road down by
the dump.)
It was still dark and I couldn't see much, but there appeared to be
some dark shadows in the car - or was that just a trick of the
night? Something certainly looked different, but it was hard to
tell what. When I reached the car I peered warily into one of the
side windows. Then my jaw dropped in amazement. My old
battered Chevy was full - full to the top with boxes of all shapes
and sizes.
I quickly opened the driver's side door, scrambled inside and
kneeled in the front facing the back seat. Reaching back, I pulled
off the lid of the top box. Inside was a whole case of little blue
jeans, sizes 2-10! I looked inside another box: It was full of
shirts to go with the jeans. Then I peeked inside some of the
other boxes: There were candy and nuts and bananas and bags of
groceries. There was an enormous ham for baking, and canned
vegetables and potatoes. There was pudding and Jell-O and
cookies, pie filling and flour. There was a whole bag of laundry
supplies and cleaning items. And there were five toy trucks and
one beautiful little doll.
As I drove back through empty streets as the sun slowly rose on
the most amazing Christmas Day of my life, I was sobbing with
gratitude. And I will never forget the joy on the faces of my little
ones that precious morning. Yes, there were angels in Indiana
that long-ago in December. And they all hung out at the Big
Wheel truck stop.
I BELIEVE IN ANGELS! They live next door, around the
corner, work in your office, patrol your neighborhood, call you
at midnight to hear you laugh and listen to you cry, teach your
children, and you see them everyday without even knowing it!.
Send this to someone you think is an angel!

Hi. John's answering machine is broken. This is the refrigerator.
Please speak very slowly,
and I'll stick your message to myself with one of these magnets.
Hello, you are talking to a machine.
I am capable of receiving messages.
My owners do not need siding, windows, or a hot tub,
and their carpets are clean.
They give to charity through their office and do not need their
icture taken.
If you're still with me,
leave your name and number and they will get back to you.
This is not an answering machine
this is a telepathic thought recording device.
After the tone, think about your name, your reason for calling
and a number where I can reach you,
and I'll think about returning your call.
Hi. I am probably home. I'm just avoiding someone I don't like.
Leave me a message, and if I don't call back, it's you.
Hi, this is George.
I'm sorry I can't answer the phone right now.
Leave a message, and then wait by your phone until I call you back.
If you are a burglar,
then we're probably home cleaning our weapons right now
and can't come to the phone.
Otherwise, we probably aren't home and it's safe to leave a message.
Please leave a message.
However, you have the right to remain silent.
Everything you say will be recorded and will be used by us.
Hello, you've reached Jim & Sonya.
We can't pick up the phone right now because
we're doing something we really enjoy.
Sonya likes doing it up & down, and I like doing it left to right
.......real slow.........So leave a message,
and when we get done brushing our teeth we'll get back to you.
My wife and I can't come to the phone right now, but if you'll leave
your name and number, we'll get back to you as soon as we're finished.
A is for academics, B is for beer. One of those reasons is why we're
not here. So leave a message.
If you drop a buttered piece of bread, it will fall on the floor butter-side down. If
a cat is dropped from a window or other high and towering place, it will land on
its feet. With this in mind, if you attach a buttered piece of bread, butter-side up,
to a cat's back and toss them both out the window, will the cat land on its feet?
Or will the butter splat on the ground?
In thoery, even if you are too lazy to do the experiment yourself you should be
able to deduce the obvious result. The laws of butterology demand that the
butter must hit the ground, and the equally strict laws of feline aerodynamics
demand that the cat can not land on its furry back. If the combined construct
were to land, nature would have no way to resolve this paradox. Therefore, they
simply do not fall.
That's right, you clever mortal (well, as clever as a mortal can get), you have
discovered the secret of antigravity!
To expand on this theory, a buttered cat will, when released, quickly move to a
height where the forces of cat-twisting and butter repulsion are in equilibrium.
This equilibrium point can be modified by scraping off some of the butter,
providing lift, or removing some of the cat's limbs, allowing descent.
Most of the civilized species of the universe already use this principle to drive
their space ships while within a planetary system. The loud humming heard by
most sighters of UFOs is, in fact, the purring of several hundred tabbies. Larger
craft use the Mancoon breed and a long ways sliced sourdough loaf.
The one obvious danger is, of course, if the cats manage to eat the bread off their
backs and they instantly plummet. This, as you all know, happened in Roswell
50 years ago. Of course the cats will land on their feet, but this usually doesn't
do them much good, since right after they make their graceful landing several
tons of red-hot starship and bewildered aliens crash on top of them.

Are You Having a Bad Day?
1. The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from the onlookers. A minute later they were both eaten by a killer whale.
2. A psychology student in New York rented out her spare room to a carpenter in order to nag him constantly and study his reactions. After weeks of needling, he snapped and beat her with an ax, leaving her with permanent severe brain damage.
3. A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen, shaking frantically with what looked like a wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a plank of wood that had been by the back door, breaking his arm in two places. Till that moment he had been happily listening to his Walkman.
4. Two animal rights protesters were protesting at the cruelty of sending pigs to the slaughterhouse in Bonn, Germany. Suddenly the pigs, all two thousand of them, escaped through a broken fence and stampeded trampling the two hapless protesters to death.
AND THE WINNER IS.......
5. An Iraqi terrorist, Khay Rahnajet, didn't pay enough postage on a letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it. Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was killed in the explosion.
See... You're not having such a bad day.
By now, everyone has heard of the Air Force's ultra-high-
security, super-secret base in Nevada, known simply as "Area
51." Late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51
were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at their "secret"
base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the
pilot into an interrogation room.
The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and
spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The
Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and
held him overnight during the investigation.
By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot
really was lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up his airplane,
gave him a terrifying "you-did-not-see-a-base" briefing,
complete with threats of spending the rest of his life in prison,
told him Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such a heading,
and sent him on his way.
The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same
Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP's surrounded the
plane . . . only this time there were two people in the plane.
The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you want to
me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where
I was last night!"

ARE YOU NORMAL?
You won't believe what I came across today while I was
searching for clip art. I found a site that has all of the
driver's license photos, old and new, from every Department
of Motor Vehicles database in the United States. It's really
cool.
The company, AsWeSeeIt, won a favorable court ruling in their
battle with the Freedom of Information Commission which gave
them the right to post our pictures on the Internet. TALK
ABOUT BIG BROTHER!
Go to the AsWeSeeIt site, and search for your license photo,
and check it out. It's really neat!
Here's the address:
http://www.asweseeit.com/616LicenseForm.htm
Take a look.
We all know those cute little computer symbols called "emoticons," where:) means a smile and :( is a frown. Sometimes these are represented by :-) and :-( respectively. Well, how about some "ass icons"? Here goes: (_!_) a regular ass (__!__) a fat ass (!) a tight ass (_._) a flat ass (_^^^^_) a bubble ass (_*_) a sore ass (_!__) a lop-sided ass {_!_} a swishy ass (_o_) an ass that's been around (_O_) an ass that's been around even more (_x_) kiss my ass (_X_) leave my ass alone (_zzz_) a tired ass (_o^^^^o_) a wise ass (_13_) an unlucky ass (_$_) Money coming out of his butt (_?_) Dumb butt
The CIA had an opening for an assassin. After all of the background
checks, interviews, and testing were done there were three finalists,
two men and a woman.
For the final test, the CIA agents took one of the men to a large metal
door and handed him a gun. "We must know that you will follow your
instructions, no matter what the circumstances. Inside of this room,
you will find your wife sitting in a chair, Kill Her!!!
The man said, "You can't be serious. I could never shoot my wife." The
agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job." The second man
was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room.
All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the man came out with tears in
his eyes. "I tried, but I can't kill my wife." The agent said, "You don't
have what it takes, Take your wife and go home."
Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions, to
kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were
heard, one shot after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging
on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet.
The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat
from her brow and said, "You guys didn't tell me the gun was loaded with
blanks I had to beat him to death with the chair."
Assorted thoughts
1. I'm not aging, I just need re-potting.
2. I don't repeat gossip, so listen carefully.
3. Lord, if I can't be skinny, let all my friends be fat.
4. My idea of cleaning the house is sweeping the floor with a glance.
5. I cleaned my house yesterday. Sure wish you could have seen it.
6. This isn't clutter; these are my antiques!
7. Discover wildlife! Have kids!
8. Our policy is to always blame the computer.
9. Your secrets are safe with me and all my friends.
10. Take my advice. I'm not using it!
11. Mom, I'll always love you, but I'll never forgive you for cleaning my face with spit on a hanky.
12. By the time you find greener pastures, you can't climb the fence!
13. This house is protected by killer dust bunnies.
14. Every time I get the urge to exercise, I lie down till the feeling passes.
There's this little guy sitting inside a bar, just
looking at his drink. He stays like that for half-an-hour.
Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next
to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks
it all down.
The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says:
"Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you
another drink. I just can't see a man crying."
"No, it's not that. Today day is the worst of my
life. First, I overslept and late to an important
meeting. My boss, outrageous, fired me.
When I left the building to my car, I found out it
was stolen. The police, they said they could do
nothing. I got a cab to return home, and after I paid
the cab driver and the cab had gone, I found that I
left my whole wallet in the cab.
I got home only to find my wife was in bed with the
gardener. I left home and came to this bar. And when
I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you
show up and drink my poison ..."
Her husband has been slipping in and out of a coma
for several months, yet she stayed by his bedside
every single day. When he came to, he motioned for
her to come nearer.
As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have
been with me all through the bad times. When I got
fired, you were there to support me. When my business
failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by
my side. When we lost the house, you gave me support.
When my health started failing, you were still by my
side... You know what?"
"What dear?" She asks gently.
"I think you bring me bad luck."
Bad Pick-up Lines
I wish I was one of your tears, so I could be born in your eye,
run down your cheek, and die on your lips.
Did you know they changed the alphabet? They put U and I
together.
Can I borrow that quarter, 'cause my mom told me to call home
when I fell in love
What's wrong? You're looking a little sad and gloomy. What you
need is some vitamin me.
Are your legs tired? 'cause you been running through my mind
ALL day long.
Are you lost? 'cause it's so strange to see an angel so far from
heaven.
Is your father a thief? 'cause he stole the sparkle from the stars,
and put it in your eyes. (yo, watch out though, and be prepared
with a snappy answer just in case she says 'yes')
Do you believe in love at first sight, or do I have to walk by you
again?
What's that in your eye? Oh...it's a sparkle.
If I said you were an angel, would you treat me like the devil
tonight?
Can I see that lable? I just wanted to know if you were made in
heaven.
Do you like raisins? How about a date?
So... How am I doin'?
I miss my teddy bear...Would you sleep with me?
You look great and all, but do you know what'd really look good
on you? Me.
Could I get some directions? ("To where?") To your heart.
Is it hot in here, or is it just you?
If I told you you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against
me?
Look at you, with all those curves, and me with no brakes.
Can I flirt with you?
Hi, my name's _____, but you can call me "lover".
(another quarter line). Could I borrow a quarter? 'cause I just
want to call your mother and thank her.
(lick your finger and then touch her shirt). Here, let me help you
out of those wet clothes.
What do you like for breakfast?
Say, did we go to different schools together?
Hi, my name is _____, how do you like me so far?
(At the copy machine) Reproducing, eh? Can I help?
Woman asks, "Excuse me, do you have the time?"
You : "Do you have the energy?"
You look like the type of girl that's heard every line in the book.
So what's one more?
Hi, I make more money than you can spend.
I'm new in town...could you give me directions to your
apartment?
I think you're the most beautiful girl I've seen...on a Wednesday
I know this is going to sound like a line, but did that sound like a
line? Are you disappointed?
I know I don't look like much now, but I'm drinking milk.
Do you have a map? I just got lost in your eyes.
Are you religious? Good, cause I'm here to answer your prayers.
Do you have a boyfriend?
Well, when you want a MANfriend, come talk to me
Want one?
Why don't you drop the zero and get with the hero [BK: That
sounds like Bluto from Popeye!]
Did it hurt? (Did what hurt) When you fell out of heaven.
Inheriting 80 million doesn't mean much when you have a weak
heart.
I lost my phone number, can I borrow yours?
If your parents hadn't met, I'd be a very unhappy man right now.
Do you drink milk? It sure did your body good.
I want you almost as much as I want world peace.
You can forget about going to heaven because it's sin to look
that good.
We both know that I am going to follow you home anyway, so
why don't you just come along peacefully?
I envy your lipstick.
I just want to be loved - is that so wrong?
You remind me of an ice cold Pepsi - I've just gotta have it.
Do you believe in the hereafter? Good, then you know what I'm
here after.
If I had eleven roses and you, I'd have a dozen.
Baby, you look so sweet you're giving me a cavity.
Is it me or am I gorgeous?
I'd even marry your dog just to be related to you.
This just in : NEW VIRUS WARNING
If you receive an e-mail with a subject line of "Badtimes," delete it immediately
WITHOUT reading it. This is a very dangerous Email virus -- the most
dangerous Email virus yet.
IMPORTANT: It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will
scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your
refrigerator's coolness setting so all your ice cream melts and milk curdles. It
will demagnetize the strips on all your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access
code, screw up the tracking on your VCR, and use subspace field harmonics to
scratch any CDs you try to play. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new
phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your
beer and leave its dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company coming
over. It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere with
your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in traffic.
Badtimes will make you fall in love with a hardened pedophile. It will give you
nightmares about circus midgets. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and
your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your
back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. It will seduce your
grandmother. It does not matter if she is dead, such is the power of Badtimes, it
reaches out beyond the grave to sully those things we hold most dear. Badtimes
will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up and leave the
hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will wantonly remove
the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows, and refill your skim milk
with whole. It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold.
It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve.
These are just a few signs.
Be very, very afraid.
Barbie's Letter to Santa
Submitted by iVillagers Deb G., Melissa L., Betty H. & Spidermom
Dear Santa,
Listen you fat little troll, I've been helping you out every year, playing at
being the perfect Christmas present, wearing skimpy bathing suits in frigid
weather and drowning in fake tea from one too many tea parties, and I hate to
break it to ya Santa, but it's definitely payback time! There had better be
some changes around here this Christmas, or I'm going to call for a
nationwide meltdown (and trust me, you won't wanna be around to smell it).
So, here's my holiday wish list for 1998, Santa.
l. A nice, comfy pair of sweat pants and a frumpy, oversized sweatshirt. I'm
sick of looking like a hooker. How much smaller are these bathing suits
gonna get? Do you have any idea what it feels like to have nylon and Velcro
up your butt?
2. Real underwear that can be pulled on and off. Preferably white. What
bonehead at Mattel decided to cheap out and MOLD imitation underwear to my
skin? It looks like cellulite!
3. A REAL man -- maybe GI Joe. I'd take Tickle-Me-Elmo over that wimped-out
excuse for a boy toy Ken. And, what's with that earring anyway? If I'm gonna
have to suffer with him, at least make him (and me) anatomically correct.
4. Arms that actually bend so I can push the aforementioned Ken-wimp away
once he is anatomically correct.
5. Breast reduction surgery. I don't care whose arm you have to twist, just
get it done.
6. A jog-bra. To wear until I get the surgery.
7. A new career. Pet doctor and school teacher just don't cut it. How about
a systems analyst? Or better yet, a public relations senior account exec!
8. A new, more 90's persona. Maybe "PMS Barbie", complete with a miniature
container of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and a bag of chips;
"Animal Rights Barbie" with my very own paint gun, fitted with a fake fur
coat, bottle of spray on blood and handcuffs; or "Stop Smoking Barbie"
sporting a Nicotrol patch and equipped with several packs of gum.
9. No more McDonald's endorsements. The grease is wrecking my vinyl.
10. Mattel stock options. It's been 37 years -- I think I deserve it.
Okay, Santa, that's it. Considering my valuable contribution to society, I
don't think these requests are out of line. If you disagree, then you can
find yourself a new doll next Christmas. It's that simple.
Yours Truly,
Barbie
Finally a Barbie I can relate to! At long last, here are some NEW Barbie dolls to coincide with her and OUR aging gracefully.
These are a bit more realistic...
1. Bifocals Barbie. Comes with her own set of blended-lens fashion frames in six wild colors
(half-frames too!), neck chain and large-print editions of Vogue and Martha Stewart Living.
2. Hot Flash Barbie. Press Barbie's bellybutton and watch her face turn beet red while tiny drops of perspiration appear on her forehead. Comes with hand-held fan and tiny tissues.
3. Facial Hair Barbie. As Barbie's hormone levels shift, see her whiskers grow. Available with teensy tweezers and magnifying mirror.
4. Flabby Arms Barbie. Hide Barbie's droopy triceps with these new, roomier-sleeved gowns. Good news on the tummy front, too-muumuus with tummy-support panels are included.
5. Bunion Barbie. Years of disco dancing in stiletto heels have definitely taken their toll on Barbie's dainty arched feet. Soothe her sores with the pumice stone and plasters, then slip on soft terry mules.
6. No-More-Wrinkles Barbie. Erase those pesky crow's-feet and lip lines with a tube of Skin Sparkle-Spackle, from Barbie's own line of exclusive age-blasting cosmetics.
7. Soccer Mom Barbie. All that experience as a cheer-leader is really paying off as Barbie dusts off her old high school megaphone to root for Babs and Ken, Jr. Comes with minivan in robin-egg blue or white, and cooler filled with doughnut holes and fruit punch.
8. Mid-life Crisis Barbie. It's time to ditch Ken. Barbie needs a change, and Alonzo (her personal trainer) is just what the doctor ordered, along with Prozac. They're hopping in her new red Miata and heading for the Napa Valley to open a B&B. Includes a real tape of "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do."
9. Divorced Barbie. Sells for $199.99. Comes with Ken's house, Ken's car, and Ken's boat.
10. Recovery Barbie. Too many parties have finally caught up with the ultimate party girl. Now she does Twelve Steps instead of dance steps. Clean and sober, she's going to meetings religiously. Comes with a little copy of The Big Book and a six-pack of Diet Coke.
11. Post-Menopausal Barbie. This Barbie wets her pants when she sneezes, forgets where she puts things, and cries a lot. She is sick and tired of Ken sitting on the couch watching the tube, clicking through the channels. Comes with Depends and Kleenex. As a bonus this year, the book "Getting In Touch with Your Inner Self" is included.

Do you remember middle school/junior high/high school? If so, do you
remember talking about 'the bases' with your friends? "Yeah man, at the
dance, X and Y went behind the gym and they got to second base!"
Well that was cool and all, but what the hell was second base? Tongue
kissing? Up the shirt? Noone was really sure. Also, the bases tended to
get progressively more intense as you got older. What's a person to do?
Here, we mourn the passing of using baseball ananlogies to describe
sexual activity. But let's face it, there are more than four stages in
todays day and age of sex play. So, in the interests of both bringing
baseball sex metaphors in line with the complications of modern romance
and with standardizing the bases, we present the Standardized Guide to the
Bases.
First, let's examine what the bases could have meant in the old days:
First Base - This was almost always kissing, although one guy I knew
thought it meant holding hands. Sometimes it was tongue kissing and
sometimes not.
Second Base - Variously this meant tongue kissing, breast feeling, or
outside the clothes genital contact.
Third Base - Usually this was a hand down the pants of you or your
partner.
Home Run - This was ALWAYS sex, although it was rarely reached in the
times when you had to refer to it in terms of bases.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well that system is ok, if you are a young teenager with a repressed sex
drive. But what happens when you reach maturity and new factors enter
the equation, such as oral sex? And what about the exact definitions? Well
we have attempted to answer such puzzling questions and present without
further ado:
Standardized Guide to the Bases!
On Deck - Having plans for a date
Strike-Out - Duh!!
Walk - Kissing
Bunt - Masturbation
Single - Tongue kissing
Double - Breasts/chest touched, some clothes off, lots of grabbing and
feels
Triple - Most of the clothes off, genital contact, mutual masturbation
Inside the park home run - Oral Sex
Home Run - SEX!
Ground Rule Double - would have sex, but no condom
Error - Condom breaks during sex
Banned for life for gambling - sex without condom
Hall of Fame - Marriage
Balk - Premature ejaculation
Pine Tar - KY jelly
Relief pitcher - Vibrator
Rain Delay - parents/roommate return home unexpectedly\
Box Seats - Waterbed
Seventh Inning Stretch - Unusual positions
Rookie - Virgin
Switch Hitter - Sex with her one night, and her brother the next.
Minor Leagues - Under 18
Loaded Bases - manage a trois
Grand Slam - Sex three times in twelve hours
Foul tip - VD
Three up and three down - impotency
Now that we have the definitions, lets quickly contrast the old
confusion with current clarity:
OLD WAY - We, um got to third base, I guess and then we, um got like
past third base, but not to home plate. I really like her...
NEW WAY - First, there was a triple, then we got and inside the park
home run, and started thinking, it's Hall of Fame time!
NEW WAY - So there I was with the bases loaded and nobody out, when I
balked during the seventh inning stretch and i had to call in a relief
pitcher.

Bathroom Etiquette
In the men's room, an accountant, a lawyer and a
farmer were standing side by side using the urinal.
The accountant finished, zipped up and started washing
and literally scrubbing his hands...clear up to his
elbows....he held about 20 paper towels before he
finished. He turned to the other two men and
commented, "I graduated from Harvard and they taught
us to be sanitary."
The lawyer finished, zipped up, went to the sink and
quickly wet the tips of his fingers, grabbed one
paper towel and commented, "I graduated from UC
Berkeley and they taught us to be environmentally
conscious."
The farmer zipped up and as he was walking directly
out the door said, "I graduated from WVU and they
taught us not to piss on our fingers"
An 80 year old man went for his annual check up and the doctor said, "Friend,
for your age you're in the best shape I've seen."
The old feller replied, "Yep. It comes from clean living. I know I live a good,
clean, spiritual life."
The doctor asked, "What makes you say that?"
The old man replied, "If I didn't live a good, clean life the Lord wouldn't turn the
bathroom light on for me every time I get up in the middle of the night."
The doc was concerned. "You mean when you get up in the night to go to the
bathroom, the Lord Himself turns on the light for you?" "Yep," the old man said,
"Whenever I get up to go to the bathroom, the Lord turns the light on for me."
Well, the doctor didn't say anything else, but when the old man's wife came in
for her check up, he felt he had to let her know what her husband said. "I just
want you to know," the doctor said. "Your husband's in fine physical shape but
I'm worried about his mental condition. He told me that every night when he
gets up to go to the bathroom, the Lord turns the light on for him."
"Aha!" she exclaimed. "He's the one who's been pissin' in the refrigerator!"
Battle Hymn of Term Finals
(Sung to The Battle Hymn Of The Republic)
Mine eyes have seen the horror
Of the ending of the term
It has poisoned all my spirits
Like an apple with a worm
It's infected all my freedom
Like an ugly cancer germ
The truth shall soon be known.
Chorus: Failure, failure, degradation,
Failure and humiliation,
Failure, failure, academia,
The truth shall soon be known.
I have listened to the teachers
But the homework leaves me cold
I have never done assignments
Although many times been told
I have even missed my classes
When I was feeling bold
The truth shall soon be known
Chorus: Failure, failure, degradation,
Failure and humiliation,
Failure, failure, academia,
The truth shall soon be known.
They are adding all my points up
And I haven't earned but few
In fact, I haven't even gotten
More than one or two
Oh, if I could only find an answer
Anything to do
The truth shall soon be known.
Chorus: Failure, failure, degradation,
Failure and humiliation,
Failure, failure, academia,
The truth shall soon be known.
On the lines of every gradebook
There is solemn news for me
The worst is yet to come when
Financial Aid ignores my plea
So I guess the only answer is
To drop my books and flee
The truth shall soon be known.
Chorus: Failure, failure, degradation,
Failure and humiliation,
Failure, failure, academia,
The truth shall soon be known.
Well, the end has finally come
And I have failed to pass a class
Though the fun and laughter, goofing off
Was really quite a gas
But I won't be in the numbers
Of the capped and gowned mass
The truth was finally shown.
Chorus: Failure, failure, degradation,
Failure, and humiliation,
Failure, failure, academia,
The truth was finally known.

The Rules of Bedroom Golf:
1.Each player shall furnish his own equipment for play, normally one
club and two balls.
2.Play on course must be approved by the owner of the hole.
3.Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and
keep the balls out.
4.For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft. Course
owners are permitted to check shaft stiffness before play begins.
5.Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length to avoid
damage to the hole.
6.Object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until
the owner is satisfied play is complete. Failure to do so
may result in being denied permission to play again.
7.It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately
upon arrival. Experienced players will normally take time
to admire the entire course, paying special attention to well
formed mounds and bunkers.
8.Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have played
or are currently playing to the owner of the course
being played. Upset owners have been known to damage a players
equipment for this reason.
9.Players are encouraged to have proper rain gear, just in case.
10.Players should not assume that the course is in shape to play at
all times. Players may be embarrassed if they find the
course temporarily under repair. Players are advised to be
extremely tactful in this situation. More advanced players will
find alternate means of play when this is the case.
11.Players should assume their match has been properly scheduled
particularly when playing a new course for the 1st time.
Previous players have been known to become irate if they discover
someone else is playing what they considered a private course.
12.The owner of the course is responsible for the pruning of any
bushes, which may reduce the visibility of the hole.
13.Players are strongly advised to get the owners permission before
attempting to play the backside.
14.Slow play is encouraged, however, players should be prepared to
proceed at a quicker pace at the owners request.
15.It is considered an outstanding performance, time permitting, to
play the same hole several times in one match.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Police warn all male clubbers, partygoers and unsuspecting pub regulars to be more alert and cautious when accepting a drink offer from a woman.
There is a date rape drug going around called "beer" and it appears in liquid form. - The drug is being used by female sexual predators at parties to persuade male victims to have sex with them.
"Beer" is available virtually anywhere. All a women has to do is persuade a guy to consume a few units of "beer" and simply ask him home for "no-strings-attached sex". Men are rendered helpless against such attacks.
After several "beers" men will often succumb to performing sex acts on horrific looking women who they would never normally be attracted to.
Men often wake up after having "beer" with only hazy memories of what happened to them the night before -- just a vague feeling that something bad occurred.
At other times these unfortunate men might be conned into a familiar scam known as "a relationship" -- apparently men are easier victims for this scam after the "beer" has been administered and they have already been sexually attacked. Forward this alert to every male you know..........
However, if you fall victim to this insidious drug and the predatory women administering it, there are male support groups where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter in an open manner with a bunch of similarly affected victims.
For your nearest support group, look up "Taverns" in the yellow pages.

Once upon a time, there was a guy sunbathing in the nude. He saw a
little girl coming towards him, so he covered himself with the
newspaper he was reading. The girl came up to him and asked "What
do you have under the newspaper, mister?"
"A bird," the guy replied. The little girl walked away and the guy
fell asleep.
When he woke up, he was in a hospital in tremendous pain. When the
Police asked him what happened, the guy replied, "I don't know. I
was lying on the beach, this girl asked me about my privates, and
the next thing I know is I'm here."
Police went back to the beach, found the girl, and asked her "What
did you do to that naked fellow?"
After a little pause, the girl replied, "To him? Nothing. I was
playing with the bird and it spit on me, so I broke its neck,
cracked its eggs, and set its nest on fire."
Joe, a college student, was taking a course in ornithology, the study of birds. The night before the biggest test of the semester, Joe spent all night studying. He had the textbook nearly memorized. He knew his class notes backward and forward. Joe was ready.
The morning of the test, Joe entered the auditorium and took a seat in the front row. On the table in the front was a row of ten stuffed birds. Each bird had a sack covering its body, and only the legs were showing. When class started, the professor announced that the students were to identify each bird by looking at its legs and give its common name, species, habitat, mating habits, etc.
Joe looked at each of the birds' legs. They all looked the same to him. He started to get angry. He had stayed up all night studying for this test and now he had to identify birds by their LEGS? The more he thought about the situation, the angrier he got.
Finally he reached his boiling point. He stood up, marched up to the professor's desk, crumpled up his exam paper and threw it on the desk.
"What a ridiculous test!" he told the prof. "How could anyone tell the difference between these birds by looking at their legs? This exam is the biggest rip-off I've ever seen!"
With that, Joe turned and stormed toward the exit.
The professor was a bit shocked, and it took him a moment to regain his composure. Then, just as Joe was about to walk out the door, the prof shouted out, "Wait a minute, young man, what's your name?"
Joe turned around, pulled up his pant legs and hollered, "You tell me, professor! You tell me!"
THE BIRTH OF A CANDYBAR
It was another Payday and I was tired of Mr. Goodbar. I saw Miss Hershey
standing behind the Powerhouse On the corner of Clark and Fifth Avenue when
I whipped out my Whopper and whispered, "hey Sweetheart, how'd you like to
Crunch on my big Million Dollar Bar?"
Well, she immediately went down on my TootsieRoll, and it was pure Almond
Joy! I couldn't help but grab her delicious Mounds Because it was easy to see
that this little Twix had the Red Hots for me. It was all I could do to hold the
Snickers and Crackle as my Butterfinger went up her tight little Kit Kat and she
started to scream "Oh Henry!"
Soon she was fondling my Peter Pan and ZagNut and I knew it wouldn't be long
before I blew my Milk Duds clear to Mars and that gave her a taste of the old
Milky Way. She asked me if I was into M&M, but I said, "hey Chicklet, no
kinky stuff."
I said "Look you little Reese's Pieces, don't be a Zero, be a Lifesaver. Why don't
you take my Whatchamacallit and slip it up your Ho-ho and i'll give you a Bit
'O' Honey?" (What a piece of Juicy Fruit she was, too!) She screamed, "Oh your
Crackerjack tastes better than the Three Musketeers!" as I rammed my Ding
Dong up her Rocky Road and into her Peanut Butter Cup.
Well, I was giving it to her Good 'N' Plenty, when all the sudden...my Starburst!
Yeah, as luck would have it, she started to grow Chunky and comlained
of a Wrigley in her stomach. Sure enough, nine months later, out
popped......Baby Ruth!
You must send this to 10 people. If you don't, you will never have good sex for

Hello, my name is Basmati Kasaar. I am suffering from rare and
deadly diseases, poor scores on final exams, extreme virginity, fear
of being kidnapped and executed by anal electrocution, and guilt for
not forwarding out 50 billion fucking chain letters sent to me by
people who actually believe that if you send them on, then that poor
6 year old girl in Arkansas with a breast on her forehead will be
able to raise enough money to have it removed before her redneck
parents sell her off to the travelling freak show. Do you honestly
believe that Bill Gates is going to give you and everyone you send
"his" email to $1000? How stupid are you? Ooooh, lookyhere! If I
scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get laid by every Playboy
model in the magazine! What a bunch of bullshit. So basically, this
message is a big FUCK YOU to all the people out there who have
nothing better to do than to send me stupid chain mail forwards.
Maybe the evil chain letter leprechauns will come into my apartment
and sodomize me in my sleep for not continuing the chain which was
started by Jesus in 5 A.D. and was brought to this country by midget
pilgrims on the Mayflower and if it makes it to the year 2000, it'll
be in the Guinness Book of World Records for longest continuous
streak of blatant stupidity.
Fuck them.
If you're going to forward something, at least send me something
mildly amusing. I've seen all the "send this to 50 of your closest
friends, and this poor, wretched excuse for a human being will
somehow receive a nickel from some omniscient being" forwards about
90 times. I don't fucking care. Show a little intelligence and think
about what you're actually contributing to by sending out forwards.
Chances are it's your own unpopularity.
P.S. Please forward this to at least 50 of your best friends!
BITS OF INFORMATION TO HELP YOU THROUGH THE DAY:
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it!)
If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)
The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet.
A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. (In my next life I want to be a pig!)
Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Still not over that pig thing!)
Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.(Is that why Flipper was always smiling? And, why isn't the pig included in this list?)
On average people fear spiders more than they do death.
The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmm.....)
A crocodile cannot stick its tongue out.
The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight and always falls over on its right side when intoxicated.(From drinking little bottles of...?) (Did the gov't pay for this research??)
Polar bears are left handed. (Who knew....?,Who cares!)
The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field.
A cockroach will live nine days without it's head, before it starves to death.
The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off. ("Honey, I'm home. What the....")
Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (Forget the pig! In my next life want to be a lion... )
Butterflies taste with their feet. (Oh, jeez!)
Elephants are the only animals that can't jump.
An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain. (I know some people like that.)
Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like that too!)
Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and smack the asshole upside the head.

victims..." and y'all are from what planet, again?

Admitting his 0-4 record is not impressive "on paper," trainers announced
that "Lucky," a German shepherd guide dog for the blind in Wuppertal Germany,
is available for his fifth owner. Lucky led his first owner in front of a

his fourth owner into heavy traffic, abandoning him to be hit and killed. The
new owner won't be told of Lucky's record - they say the dog might sense
nervousness and "do something silly..."

A True Story...
On a recent weekend in Atlantic City, a woman won a
bucketful of quarters at a slot machine. She took a break from
the slots for dinner with her husband in the hotel dining room.
But first she wanted to stash the quarters in her
room.
"I'll be right back and we'll go to eat," she told her husband
and she carried the coin-laden bucket to the elevator. As she
was about to walk into the elevator she noticed two men
already aboard. Both were black. One of them was big...
very big... an intimidating figure. The woman froze. Her first
thought was: These two are going to rob me. Her next thought
was: Don't be a bigot, they look like perfectly nice gentlemen.
But racial stereotypes are powerful, and fear immobilized her.
She stood and stared at the two men. She felt anxious,
flustered, ashamed. She hoped they didn't read her mind, but
knew they surely did; her hesitation about joining them on the
elevator was all too obvious. Her face was flushed. She
couldn't just stand there, so with a mighty effort of will she
picked up one foot and stepped forward and followed with the
other foot and was on the elevator. Avoiding eye contact, she
turned around stiffly and faced the elevator doors s they
closed. A second passed, and then another second, and then
another. Her fear increased!
The elevator didn't move. Panic consumed her. My God, she
thought, I'm trapped and about to be robbed! Her heart
plummeted. Perspiration poured from every pore. Then ...one
of the men said, "Hit the floor." Instinct told her: Do what
they tell you. The bucket of quarters flew upwards as she
threw out her arms and collapsed on the elevator carpet. A
shower of coins rained down on her. Take my money and
spare me, she prayed. More seconds passed. She heard one of
the men say politely, "Ma'am, if you'll just tell us what floor
you're going to, we'll push the button."
The one who said it had a little trouble getting the words out.
He was trying mightily to hold in a belly laugh.
She lifted her head and looked up at the two men. They
reached down to help her up. Confused, she struggled
to her feet. "When I told my man here to hit the floor," said
the average sized one, "I meant that he should hit the
elevator button for our floor. I didn't mean for you to hit the
floor, ma'am." He spoke genially. He bit his lip. It
was obvious he was having a hard time not laughing.
She thought: My God, what a spectacle I've made of myself.
She was too humiliated to speak. She wanted to
blurt out an apology, but words failed her. How do you
apologize to two perfectly respectable gentlemen
for behaving as though they were going to rob you? She didn't
know what to say. The 3 of them gathered up the strewn
quarters and refilled her bucket.
When the elevator arrived at her floor they insisted on walking
her to her room. She seemed a little unsteady on her feet, and
they were afraid she might not make it down the corridor. At
her door they bid her a good evening.
As she slipped into her room she could hear them roaring with
laughter while they walked back to the elevator. The woman
brushed herself off. She pulled herself together and went
downstairs for dinner with her husband.
The next morning flowers were delivered to her room-a dozen
roses. Attached to EACH rose was a crisp one hundred dollar
bill. The card said: "Thanks for the best laugh we've had in
years." It was signed:
Eddie Murphy
Michael Jordan
Blind Man
Two nuns are ordered to paint a room in the convent which is being renovated, and the last instruction of the Mother Superior is that they must not get even a drop of paint on their habits.
After conferring about this for a while, the two nuns decide to lock the door of the room, strip off their habits, and paint in the nude.
In the middle of the project, there comes a knock at the door.
"Who is it?" calls one of the nuns.
"Blind man," replies a voice from the other side of the door.
The two nuns look at each other, shrug, and decide that no harm can come from letting a blind man into the room. They open the door, and a man enters.
"Nice boobs," says the man. "Where do you want these blinds?"
Contractor
A woman wants the inside of her house painted and she calls a
contractor in to help her. They wander around the house, and she points
out the colors she wants. She says, "Now, in the living room, I'd like
to have a neutral beige, very soft and warm." The contractor nods,
pulls out his pad of paper and writes on it. Then he goes to the window,
leans out and yells, "Green side up!" The woman is most perplexed but
she lets it slide.
They wander into the next room. She says, "In the dining room I'd like
a light white, not stark, but very bright and airy." The contractor
nods, pulls out his pad of paper and writes on it. Then he goes to the
window, leans out, and yells "Green side up"! The woman is even more
perplexed but still lets it slide.
They wander further into the next room. She says, "In the bedroom, I'd
like blue. Restful, peaceful, cool blue." The contractor nods, pulls
out his pad of paper and writes on it. Then once more he goes to the
window, leans out and yells "Green side up"! This is too much. The
woman has to ask. So she says, "Every time I tell you a color, you
write it down, but then you yell out the window 'Green side up.' What
on earth does that mean?"
The contractor shakes his head and says, "I have four blondes laying
sod across the street."
Blonde Jokes
A blonde woman strode angrily into the large store, slapped a package on
the counter, and loudly expressed her dissatisfaction. The clerk asked,
"What's the problem? Wouldn't your cat eat them?"
The woman's eyes got very large, and she whispered, "Do you mean to tell
me that 'Pussy Treats' are for cats?"
When the surgeon came to see his blonde patient on the day after her
operation, she asked him somewhat hesitantly just how long it would be
before she could resume her sex life.
"Uh, I hadn't really thought about it" replied the stunned surgeon.
"You're the first one ever to ask that after a tonsillectomy."
The blonde is walking down the street with her blouse open and her right
breast hanging out. A policeman approaches her and says, "Ma'am, are you
aware I could cite you for indecent exposure?"
She says, "Why, officer?"
"Because your breast is exposed."
"Oh. my God", says the blond. "I left the baby on the bus!"
A police officer arrives at an accident scene where apparently three
blondes have leaped to their death from a very tall building. He suddenly
notices that one is still breathing so he approaches her and asks, "Why
did you three beautiful girls leap out of that building?"
The blond answers in a very weak voice, "We wanted to try out our new
maxi-pads, with wings..."
Two blondes were walking down the road and the first blonde said, "Look
at that dog with one eye!" The other blonde covers one of her eyes and
says, "Where?"
"Blonde Mail Call"
from ScorpioX2X
A man was mowing his front yard when his attractive, blonde, female neighbor came out of the house and went straight to her mailbox. She opened the mailbox, looked inside, slammed it shut, and stormed back into her house.
A little later, she came out of her house again, went to the mailbox, again opened it, and again slammed it shut. Angrily back into the house she went.
As the man was getting ready to edge the lawn, the blonde came out again. She marched to the mailbox, opened it and then slammed it closed harder than ever.
Puzzled by her actions, the man asked her, "Is something wrong?" She replied, "There certainly is! My stupid computer keeps telling me I have mail!"
Blondes On Top
Two bowling teams, one of all blondes and one of all brunettes,
charter a double-decker bus for a weekend bowling tournament in
Atlantic City.
The brunette team rides in the bottom of the bus. The blonde team
rides on the top level. The brunette team down below is having a
great time, when one of them realizes she doesn't hear anything
from the blondes upstairs.
She decides to go up and investigate. When the Brunette reaches
the top, she finds all the Blondes frozen in fear, staring
straight ahead at the road, and clutching the seats in front of
them with white knuckles.
She says, "What the heck's goin' on up here? We're havin' a grand
time downstairs!"
One of the blondes looks up and says, "Yeah, but you've got a
driver!"
BLOWJOBS: WOMEN vs. MEN
Blow job Etiquette (By a woman)
1. First and foremost, we are not obligated to do it.
2. Extension to rule #1- So if you get one, be grateful.
3. I don't care WHAT they did in the porn video you saw; it is not standard practice to cum on someone's face.
4. Extension to rule #3- No I DON'T have to swallow.
5. My ears are NOT handles.
6. Extension to rule#5- do not push on the top of my head. Last I heard, deep throat had been done. And additionally, do you really want puke on your dick?
7. I don't care HOW relaxed you get it is NEVER OK to fart.
8. Having my period does not mean that it's "hummer week" get it through your head- I'm bloated and I feel like shit so no, I don't feel particularly obligated to blow you, YOU just can't have sex right now.
9. Extension to #8- "Blue balls" might have worked on high school girls, if you are that desperate go jerk off and leave me alone with my Midol.
10. If I have to pause to remove a pubic hair from my teeth, don't tell me I've just "wrecked it" for you.
11. Leaving me in bed while you go play video games immediately afterwards is highly inadvisable if you would like my behavior to be repeated in the future.
12. If you like how we do it, it's probably best not to speculate about the origins of our talent. Just enjoy the moment and be happy that we're goin' at it. See also rule #2 about gratitude.
13. No, it doesn't particularly taste good. And I don't care about the protein content.
14. No, I will NOT do it while you watch TV.
15. When you hear your friends complain about how they don't get blow jobs often enough,keep your mouth shut. It is inappropriate to either sympathize or brag.
16. Just because "it's awake" when you get up doesn't mean I have to "kiss it good morning."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Man's Rebuttal
1. First of all, yes you are obligated to do it. If you don't we will find someone younger,prettier, and dirtier who will.
2. Second, swallowing a teaspoon of cream is a hell of a lot easier than licking a dead fish.
3. You want to talk about farting? does the word "queef" mean anything to you?
4. I will use your ears as I see fit. Don't worry about it and be hankful I'm not pulling your hair.
5 . When you're on period, stuffing something in your mouth is the only way to stop your bitching and moaning. Suck it up.
6. Speaking of which, if you are bleeding for five straight days,you need all the fluids you can get, trust me.
7. You bitch about the taste, but trust me when I tell you that we get the shit end of the stick in flavor country.
8. At least there is no danger of a dick bleeding in your mouth.
9. Play with the balls. We like that.
10. No matter how good you think you are at it, we've had better.
11. Caress the ass. We like that too.
12. Make hay when the sun shines. It's "wide awake" in the morning now, because when you get old and fat and looking for some action, I guarentee it'll be "sound asleep!"
13. If you swallow, then you don't have to worry about getting any on your face, now will you?
Bob Knows Everybody
Bob and his friend are sitting on front porch admiring the
sunset. Bob has a proud smile on his face when he says, "You
know, I don't think there's anyone on this planet I don't know."
His friend looks at him, "What? You're kidding!"
Bob says, "No. I think I know just about everybody."
Bob's friend says, "I bet you don't know the governor."
"George? Yeah, I know ol' George, as a matter of fact, I'm having
dinner with him Tuesday. Why don't you come along?"
They show up at the governor's mansion Tuesday, Governor Bush
opens up the door himself. "Hey, Bob! How are ya doin'? Come on
in!"
Bob's friend is quite impressed, but still not convinced Bob
knows everybody. A few days later he tells Bob. "I bet you don't
know Bruce Springsteen."
"Bruce? Sure I know the Boss! We used to hang out together in
Jersey!"
"Bob, I don't believe you. I think you're lying to me."
"No, really," Bob responds, "In fact, he's putting on a show
tomorrow night. Lets go."
Bob and his friend make their way up to front row. Bruce
Springsteen looks down and says, "I'd like to dedicate this next
song to my good friend Bob here."
The friend is getting totally freaked by now. He is determined to
find someone Bob doesn't know. A couple of weeks later, Bob is
once again sitting on the porch with that proud smile on his
face, when his friend pulls up in the driveway, jumps out of the
car and says, "Aha! You don't know the Pope!"
"The Pope? Sure I know ol' John Paul!"
"You're lyin', Bob! I don't believe you!"
"I'll prove it to you," Bob says.
So they fly over to the Vatican. Bob's friend stands near the
front of the crowd waiting for the Pope to come out on the
balcony. Soon the Pope appears before the thousands of people in
the crowd. Sure enough, right behind him comes Bob. Standing next
to the Pope and waving at the crowds. After a bit Bob looks down
and sees his friend passed out on the ground. He runs down to the
street to his friend and says, "Hey, you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm okay. I was standing here in shock when all of a
sudden a guy leans towards me and says, 'Hey, who's that standing
next to Bob?'"
1979,1989 :KOOL KIDS NEVER HAVE THE TIME
We were born in 1979 or 1980. People were still getting over Vietnam and
Disco had swept the country. Dolly Parton had a song called Jolene, and Diana
Ross had records, yes those big black frisbees that were 5 times the size of a CD,
as big as her hair. The Muppets were our heros, and Atari was the game of
choice. Pac Man invaded our heads and our parents pockets. We had those
bouncy balls that had the handle on the top and you could sit on and bounce all
over the place. The Reagan administration came around, but all we cared about
were our mini-wheels. Snack time in Kindergarten was cool and the opposite
sex still had cooties. We liked to play Candyland and Chutes and Ladders. Tic
tac toe was still fashionable to us. Star Wars, and Ewoks were imiatated all over
the nation, ET made us (or at least me) afraid to go into the bathroom. Girls
fought over My Little Ponies, Barbies and Cabbage Patch Kids. Boys were more
into Transformers, He-Man, and GI Joe, not to mention their prized bb guns.
Pretend was always fun too. In second grade we watched as the Challenger lept
from the earth only to float back unexpectedly, devastating the nation, and
plunging them into a state of mourning. Cuba was the enemy, drugs were
becoming big and Iran got on our bad side, as did Oliver North. TV rotted our
brains with "Different Strokes," "Silver Spoons," and "The Cosby Show." Leg
warmers, bandanas and spiked hair, consumed us as we listened to Boy George
and his Culture Club, Bruce Springstein, Rolling Stones, Madonna, George
Michael, Cyndi Lauper, and Micheal Jackson. Pretty soon, hair stopped being
spiked and started getting BIG...chains,and spikes, and jellybracelets were the
rage, and everything was "awesome" or even"rad."
People started getting computers like the Apple 2E. Bubble dresses were cool
and the youth were following the path of rebellion. Drugs and guns were
becoming more and more common, and we watched as the world discovered
HIV and AIDS, and an 18 year old boy from Indiana died from a transfusion...
We also lived through the Bush administration. Our generation watched the Gulf
War come into our living rooms at night with the green night images and the
blazing dots across the screen. We watched older brothers and sisters go off to a
war that we never thought we'd see, but we made up songs about Saddam
Hussein to the tune of "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice.
Bill Clinton became the President taking Al Gore as his VP. Rolling your jeans
and wearing GUESS and ESPRIT clothes made you popular. Skinny people
were beautiful and fat people were funny, but everyone was crazy for
McDonalds.
We started dating more frequently, searching for the love of our life. Girls in the
high schools started getting pregnant and we started getting our licenses. We
lived through all the crazy fashion flashbacks, the hair, and the environmental
crisis. We got to our senior year and we waited for proms and homecoming and
most of all graduation day. We picked up our caps and gowns and all that senior
stuff that's supposed to help us remember the good old days,but some of the
things that you remember most, can't be put on paper...That day finally came,
and you sat there with all of the friends that you had made over the years...you
looked out at your family and deep down you knew that this was a once in a
lifetime moment. It was the last time in your life that all these people would be
together in one place. Yeah there would be reunions but there was always the
chance that one person wouldn't make it there. You looked back on your time
with these people and realized that it was short lived and that it didn't seem as if
there was enough time for everything that you wanted to accomplish...sports,
activities, SAT, ACT, and all that good stuff. They called your name, your tassle
got turned, and you got a piece of paper that said that you were smart. Then you
said good-bye...maybe to your town, and that school and your friends. You
know that you can go back to visit, but there will be strangers in the halls and it's
not the same. It's different, and you're different. But it's not the end. In
fact,everything is just beginning.-Anonymous
Send this on to all the people you know born in "our" year so that they too enjoy
the reflection on what defines us and makes our memories.
The Boston Symphony was performing Beethoven's Ninth.
In the piece, there's a long passage about 20 minutes
during which the bass violinists have nothing to do.
Rather than sit around the whole time looking stupid,
some bassists decided to sneak offstage and go to the
tavern next door for a quick one.
After slamming several beers in quick succession (as
bass violinists are prone to do), one of them looked
at his watch. "Hey! We need to get back!"
"No need to panic," said a fellow bassist. "I thought
we might need some extra time, so I tied the last few
pages of the conductor's score together with string.
It'll take him a few minutes to get it untangled."
A few moments later they staggered back to the concert
hall and took their places in the orchestra. About this
time, a member of the audience noticed the conductor
seemed a bit edgy and said as much to her companion.
"Well, of course," said her companion. "Don't you see?
It's the bottom of the Ninth, the score is tied, and the
bassists are loaded."
Box of Tampons
Two little boys go into the grocery store. One is nine, the other four.
the nine-year old grabs a box of tampons from the shelf and carries it
to the register for check-out.
The cashier asks, "Oh, these must be for your Mom, huh.?" The nine-year
old shakes his head and replies, Nope, not for my Mom."
Cashier: "Well, they must be for your sister then?"
Nine-year old: "Nope, not for my sister either."
Cashier, curious now: "If they're not for your Mom and not for your
sister, who are they for?"
The nine-year old says, "They're for my four-year old brother."
Surprised, the cashier asks, "Your little brother right here??"
Nine year old explains: "Well, yeah! They say on TV if you wear one of
these you can swim or ride a bike, and my little brother can't do either!"
"BRAIN CELLS"
All babies start out with the same number of raw
cells which, over nine months, develop into a
complete female baby. The problem occurs when cells
are instructed by the little chromosomes to make a
male baby instead. Because there are only so many
cells to go around, the cells necessary to develop a
male's reproductive organs have to come from cells
already assigned elsewhere in the female.
Recent tests have shown that these cells come from
the Communications center of the brain, migrate lower
in the body and develop the appropriately modified
functions. This means, however, that males are born a
few cards short, so to speak.
This difference between the male and female brain
manifests itself in various ways. Little girls will
tend to play things like house or learn to read.
Little boys, however, will tend to do things like
placing a bucket over their heads and running into
walls. Little girls will think about doing things
before taking any action. Little boys will just look
surprised if someone asks them why they just punched
their little brother who was half asleep and looking
the other way.
This basic cognitive difference continues to grow
until puberty, when the trouble really begins. After
puberty, not only the size of the brains differ, but
the center of thought also differs. Women think with
their heads. Male thoughts originate where their ex-
brain cells reside.
Of course, the size of this problem varies from man
to man. In some men only a small number of brain
cells migrate; they are left with nearly full mental
capacity but tend to be rather dull. Such men are
known in medical terms as
"Republicans." Other men suffer larger brain cell
relocation. These men are referred to as "Democrats."
A small number of men suffer truly massive brain cell
migration At conception. These men are usually
referred to as..... "Mr. President."
The patient's family gathered to hear what the specialists had to say.
"Things don't look good. The only chance is a brain transplant. This is an
experimental procedure. It might work, but the bad news is that brains are
very expensive, and you will have to pay the costs yourselves."
"Well, how much does a brain cost?" asked the relatives.
"For a male brain, $500,000. For a female brain, $200,000." Some of the
younger male relatives
tried to look shocked, but all the men nodded in understanding, and a few
actually smirked. Then the patient's daughter asked, "Why the difference in
price between male brains and female brains?"
"A standard pricing practice," said the head of the team. "Women's brains
have to be marked down because they're used."
100 yard breast stroke race..
A blonde, brunette, and redhead were standing on the edge of the pool
ready for the 100 yard breast stroke race...
The starter shot the pistol and the three dove into the water and began
swimming.
A few minutes later, the brunette finished and jumped out of the water.
Then the redhead.
About twenty minutes later, the blonde emerged.
They awarded the gold to the brunette, the silver to the redhead, and the
bronze to the blonde.
As they placed the medal around her neck, the blonde whispered, " I don't
want to sound like a sore loser, but I think the other two used their
arms."

"You drive me crazy" ~Britney Spears
You gotta sing to the song, its got the same beat and everything.
Now..here comes...our version... =)
Baby
I'm so into you
But your not the only one
That I've ever screwed
Baby
You spin me around
My hair extentions
Fall right to the ground
Everytime you look at me
I do my shimmy
And you start to flee
Loving you means so much more
But its not as fun to me as being a whore
*chorus*
I drive you crazy
You just cant sleep
I'm so annoying
And, I'm such a geek
Oh crazy
I wear cloths to tight
Baby thinking of me
Keeps me busy all night
You tell me
I look like a goat
And I cant even
Reach a high note
Dont tell me
You wanna be free
Just cuz my make-up
Is done all shitty
Loving you means so much more
But its not as fun to me as being a whore
*chorus repeated*
Crazy
I'm so confused
I'm such a ditz
And I have fake boobs
Crazy
But they feel alright
Every day and every night
*chorus repeated*

Morris and Lena's bull took sick and died, so they
needed to go to the auction to buy a new one. Morris
had to tend to the dairy and couldn't leave the farm,
so Lena took the train to the city to buy a bull. If
she was successful, she would take the train back to
the farm, then she and Morris would go to town with
the truck to pick up their newly purchased bull.
The bidding was furious at the livestock auction, and
Lena found herself bidding on the last remaining
bull. It took everything she had but ten cents, but
she was finally the successful bidder.
Unfortunately, the train home was fifty cents.
"Please, Mr. Conductor, couldn't you make an
exception just vunce?" pleaded Lena. "Sorry lady," he
replied, "but you can send your husband a telegram to
tell him your problem. The office is just down the
street."
At the Telegraph office, Lena asked, "Mister, how
many words can I send to my husband for a dime?"
"It's ten cents a word," the clerk answered.
Lena pondered her dilemma, then finally said, "OK,
here's da message:

BUNGEEEE
Al and Joe are bungee-jumping one day. Al says to Joe, "You
know, we could make a lot of money running our own
bungee-jumping service in Mexico." Joe thinks this is a great
idea, so they pool their money and buy everything they'll
need; a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As
they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble.
Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work.
When they had finished, there was such a crowd they thought
it would be a good idea to give a demonstration.
So Al jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but when he
comes back up, Joe notices that he has a few cuts and
scratches. Unfortunately, Joe isn't able to catch him, and he
falls again, bounces and comes back up again. This time, he is
bruised and bleeding. Again Joe misses him. Al falls again
and bounces back up. This time he comes back pretty messed
up -- he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost
unconscious. Luckily, Joe finally catches him this time and
says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak, Al gasps, "No, the bungee cord was fine,
it was the crowd. What the hell is a pinata?"
"BUTTERFLY KISSES"
We often learn the most from our children. Some time ago, a
friend of mine punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold
wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became infuriated when
the child tried to decorate a box to put under the tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the
Next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." He was embarrassed
by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found
that the box was empty.
He yelled at her, "Don't you know that when you give someone a
present, there's supposed to be something inside of it?"
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said,
" Oh, Daddy it's not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you,
Daddy."
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl,
and he begged her forgiveness. My friend told me that he kept that gold
box by his bed for years. Whenever he was discouraged, he would take
out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it
there.
In a very real sense, each of us as parents has been given a gold
container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our
children.
There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

A woman and a man get into a car accident, and it's a bad one. Both cars
are totally demolished, but amazingly enough, neither one of them is hurt.
After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, "So you're a man,
that's interesting. Wow! Just look at our cars. There's nothing left, but
fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should
meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our days."
The man replied, "I agree with you completely; this must be a sign from
God!" The woman continued, "And look at this - here's another miracle. My
car is completely demolished but this bottle of Mogen David wine didn't
break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good
fortune." then she hands the bottle to the man. The man shakes his head in
agreement, opens it and takes a few big swigs from the bottle, then hands
it back to the woman.
The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it
back to the man... The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"
the woman replies, "No, I think I'll just wait for the police....."
GOOD:
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated
radar. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police
department a picture of a $40 bill. The police responded with another
mailed photo - of handcuffs.
BETTER:
A policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting
many. Then he discovered the problem: a 10 year old boy was standing up the
road with a hand painted sign which read "RADAR TRAP AHEAD." The officer
then found a young accomplice down the road with a sign reading "TIPS" and a
bucket full of change. (And we used to just sell lemonade.)
BEST:
A young woman was pulled over for speeding. As the motorcycle officer
walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said, "I bet
you are going to sell me a ticket to the Highway Patrolmen's Ball."
He replied, "Highway patrolmen don't have balls."
There was a moment of silence while she smiled, and he realized what he'd
just said. He then closed his book, got back on his motorcycle, and left.
She was laughing too hard to start her car for several minutes.
An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-contractor
of his plans to leave the house-building business and live a more
leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss
the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could
build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes,
but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He
resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an
unfortunate way to end his career.
When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the
house, the contractor handed the front-door key to the carpenter. "This
is your house," he said,
"my gift to you."
What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his
own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live
in the home he had built none too well.
So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather
than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we
do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the
situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we
have built. If we had realized that we would have done it differently.
Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you
hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the
only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more,
that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity.
The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Who could
say it more clearly? Your life today is the result of your attitudes and
choices in the past. Your life tomorrow will be the result of your
attitudes and the choices you make today.
Pass this on to someone you care about. I did ! ! !
Cat Haiku
You never feed me.
Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will show you.
I need a new toy.
Tail of black dog keeps good time.
Pounce! good dog! good dog!
The rule for today:
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.
In deep sleep hear sound
Cat throwup hairball somewhere
Will find in morning
Grace personified,
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.
Blur of motion, then --
Silence, me, a paper bag.
What is so funny?
You're always typing.
Well, let's see you ignore my
Sitting on your hands.
My small cardboard box.
You cannot see me if I
Can hide my head.
Terrible battle.
I fought for hours. Come and see!
What's a 'term paper'?
Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes
Fear vacuum cleaner.
Want to trim my claws?
Don't even think about it!
My cries will wake the dead.
I want to be close
To you. Can I fit my head
inside your armpit?
Wanna go outside.
Oh, no! Help! I got outside!
Let me back inside!
Oh no! Big One
has been trapped by newspaper!
Cat to the rescue!
Humans are so strange.
Mine lies still in bed, then screams!
My claws aren't that sharp . . .
Litter box not here
You must have moved it again
I'll crap in the sink.
We're almost equals
I purr to show I love you
Want to smell my butt?
It costs so little and means so much
As you are probably aware, if voting results in Florida stand as they are now, George W. Bush will be our next President.
This will have catastrophic results in our vital -- no, indispensable -- entertainment industry.
Barbra Streisand, Martin Sheen, Susan Sarandon, Whoopie Goldberg, Alec Baldwin -- among many others -- have sworn to leave the country if George W. Bush is elected President.
And this is where YOU can help. We need volunteers to help pack and to load moving vans. We also need airfare for these irreplaceable national treasures so they can relocate before they change their minds.
For the cost of a small SUV, you can sponsor one of these celebrities and their unfortunate relocation.
You will know that your efforts are helping when you receive postcards, letters and pictures from your chosen "refugee" as they learn to become a useful citizen in the Third World country of their choosing.
You will help, won't you? It costs so little but it means so much.
Call 1-800-deport-a-lib. Operators are standing by. Major credit cards are accepted.
This letter was started in hopes of bringing relief to other tired and
discouraged men. Unlike most chain letters, this one does not cost
anything.
Just send a copy of this letter to five of your friends who are equally
tired and discontented. Then bundle up your wife or girlfriend and
send her to the man whose name appears at the top of this list, and
add your name to the bottom. When your turn comes, you will receive
6,255 women. One of them is bound to be better than the one you
already have. At the time of writing this, a friend of mine had already
received 184 women, 4 of who were worth keeping.
Remember - this chain brings luck. One man's cat died, and the next
day he received a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader. You can be lucky too,
so DO NOT BREAK THIS CHAIN One man broke the chain and got his
own wife back.
"Chain" Letter for Women Only
This letter was started by a woman like yourself, in the hopes of bringing
relief to other tired and discontented women.
Unlike most chain letters, this one does not cost anything. Just send a copy
of this letter to five of your friends who are equally as frustrated - then
bundle up your husband, boyfriend or lover and send him to the woman whose
name appears at the top of this list.
When your name comes to the top of the list, you will receive 16,877 men. One
of them is bound to be a hell of a lot better than the one you already have.
Do not break the chain. One woman broke the chain and got her own SOB back.
At this writing, a friend of mine already has received 184 men. They buried
her yesterday. But it took three undertakers 35 hours to get the smile off
her face.
Please hurry up and send this letter along, so my name can move up faster.
POSSIBLY THE BEST CHICKEN JOKE EVER:
A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is smoking a
cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg is frowning
and looks a bit teed off. The egg mutters to no one in particular,
"Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question!"
DIVORCED FATHER:
"When you go back to your Mom's tonight, give her this envelope and tell her that since you are now 18, this is the last check she'll ever see from me for child support. Then, stand back and watch the expression on her face."
DAUGHTER:
"O.K."
Later...
DAUGHTER:
"Mom, Dad asked me to give you this envelope. He said to tell you that since I'm now 18, this is the last child support payment he'll ever have to make to you. Now I'm supposed to stand back and watch the expression on your face."
DIVORCED MOTHER:
"Next time you visit your father, tell him that after 18 years I have decided to inform him that he's not your father...... then, stand back and watch the expression on his face."

MEMO
FROM: Pat Lewis, Human Resources Director
TO: Everyone
RE: Christmas Party
DATE: December 1
I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas
Party will take place on December 23, starting at noon
in the banquet room at Luigi's Open Pit Barbecue.
No-host bar, but plenty of eggnog! We'll have a small
band playing traditional carols...feel free to sing
along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up
dressed as Santa Claus!
====================================================
FROM; Pat Lewis, Human Resources Director
DATE: December 2
RE: Christmas Party
In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our
Jewish employees. We recognize that Chanukah is an
important holiday which often coincides with
Christmas, though unfortunately not this year.
However, from now on we're calling it our "Holiday
Party". The same policy applies to employees who are
celebrating Kwanzaa at this time.
Happy now?
======================================================
FROM; Pat Lewis, Human Resources Director
DATE: December 3
RE: Holiday Party
Regarding the note I received from a member of
Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking
table...you didn't sign your name. I'm happy to
accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a
table that reads, "AA Only"; you wouldn't be anonymous
anymore.
How am I supposed to handle this?
Somebody?

RE: Holiday Party
What a diverse company we are! I had no idea that
December 20 begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan,
which forbids eating, drinking and sex during daylight
hours. There goes the party!
Seriously, we can appreciate how a luncheon this time
of year does not accommodate our Muslim employees'
beliefs. Perhaps Luigi's can hold off on serving your
meal until the end of the party -- the days are so
short this time of year -- or else package everything
for take-home in little foil swans.
Will that work?
Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Overeaters
Anonymous to sit farthest from the dessert buffet and
pregnant women will get the table closest to the
restrooms.
Did I miss anything?

RE: Holiday Party
So December 22 marks the Winter Solstice...what do you
expect me to do, a tap-dance on your heads? Fire
regulations at Luigi's prohibit the burning of sage by
our "earth-based Goddess-worshipping" employees, but
we'll try to accommodate your shamanic drumming circle
during the band's breaks.
Okay???

People, people, nothing sinister was intended by
having our CEO dress up like Santa Claus! Even if the
anagram of "Santa" does happen to be "Satan," there is
no evil connotation to our own "little man in a red
suit." It's a tradition, folks, like sugar shock at
Halloween or family feuds over the Thanksgiving turkey
or broken hearts on Valentine's Day.
Could we lighten up?

Vegetarians!?!?!?
I've had it with you people!!!
We're going to keep this party at Luigi's Open Pit
Barbecue whether you like it or not, so you can sit
quietly at the table furthest from the "grill of
death", as you so quaintly put it, and you'll get your
#$%^&*! salad bar, including hydroponic tomatoes...but
you know, they have feelings, too. Tomatoes scream
when you slice them. I've heard them scream, I'm
hearing them scream right now!

I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Pat Lewis a
speedy recovery from her stress-related illness and
I'll continue to forward your cards to her at the
sanatorium.
In the meantime, management has decided to cancel our
Holiday Party and give everyone the afternoon of the
23rd off with full pay.

Church Services
One Sunday after the church sermon was over and everyone was filing
out, we stopped to chat with our friends. My wife said "the pastor's
sermon was really bad today."
"Boring too!" remarked one of our gathered friends.
"The choir was just awful, they were off key the whole time" I
remarked.
The rest of the group nodded in agreement as my son butted ion and said
"come, pops, I thought they were pretty good for just a quarter".

The Amish and the Elevator
An Amish boy and his father were visiting a mall. They were
amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially two shiny, silver
walls in the mall lobby that could move apart and back together again.
The boy asked his father, "What is this father?"
The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, "Son, I have
never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is."
While the boy and his father were watching wide-eyed, an older lady,
limping slightly with a cane, slowly walks up to the moving walls
and pressed a button. The walls opened and the lady walks between them
and into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father
watched, small circles of light with numbers above the wall light up.
They continued to watch the circles light up in the reverse direction.
The walls opened up again and a beautiful 24-year-old woman stepped
out. The father said to his son, "Go get your Mother."
Circle Flies
A farmer got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding, and the trooper
started to lecture the farmer about his speed, and in general began to
throw his weight around to try to make the farmer uncomfortable.
Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket, and as he was
doing that he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his
head.
The farmer said, "Having some problems with circle flies there, are ya?"
The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said--"Well yeah, if that's
what they are--I never heard of circle flies".
So the farmer says--"Well, circle flies are common on farms. See, they're
called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around
the back end of a horse."
The trooper says, "Oh," and goes back to writing the ticket. Then after a
minute he stops and says, "Hey...wait a minute, are you trying to call me
a horses ass?"
The farmer says, "Oh no, officer. I have too much respect for law
enforcement and police officers to even think about calling you a horses
ass."
The trooper says, "Well, that's a good thing," and goes back to writing
the ticket.
After a long pause, the farmer says, "Hard to fool them flies though."
Gore and the Clinton's are flying on Air Force One. Bill looks at Al,
chuckles and says, "You know, I could throw a $100.00 bill out the window
right now and make one person very happy."
Al shrugs his stiff shoulders and says, "Well, I could throw ten $10.00
bills out the window and make 10 people very happy."
Hillary tosses her perfectly hair-sprayed hair and says, "I could throw
100 $1.00 bills out the window and make a hundred people happy."
Chelsea rolls her eyes, looks at all of them and says, "I could throw all
three of you out the window and make the whole country happy.
One Friday morning, a teacher came up with a novel
way to motivate her class. She told them that she
would read a quote and the first student to correctly
identify who said it would receive the rest of the
day off.
She started with "This was England's finest hour."
Little Suzy instantly jumped up and said, " Winston
Churchill."
"Congratulations," said the teacher "you may go
home."
The teacher then said, "Ask not what your country can
do for you."
Before she could finish this quote, another young
lady belts out, "John F. Kennedy".
"Very good" says the teacher, "you may go."
Irritated that he has missed two golden
opportunities, Little Johnny said, "I wish those
girls would just shut up."
Upon overhearing this comment, the outraged teacher
demanded to know who said it. Johnny instantly rose
to his feet and said, "Bill Clinton. I'll see you
Monday."
The difference between an accident, a great loss and a tragedy.
Bill Clinton was visiting a grade school recently and he asked in one
class of students if anyone could give him an example of a "tragedy".
One little boy stands up and offers that, "If my best friend who
lives next door is playing in the street and a car comes by and kills him,
that would be a tragedy".
"NO!" Clinton says, "That would be an ACCIDENT."
A girl raises her hand. "If a school bus carrying fifty children
drove off cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy."
I'm afraid not, explains Clinton. "That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS".
The room fell silent; none of the other children would dare to
volunteer. "What?", asks Clinton, "isn't there anyone here who can give
me an example of a tragedy"?
Finally, little Johnny raises his hand. He says "If an Airplane
carrying Bill & Hillary Clinton was blown up by a terrorist, that would be
a tragedy".
"Wonderful!" Clinton beams. "Marvelous! And can you tell me
WHY that would be a tragedy"?
"Well," says the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident, and it certainly
wouldn't be any great loss!"
Hillary Clinton died and went to Heaven (has to be an error!).
St. Peter was conducting the tour and Hillary noticed that
there were dozens of clocks on the wall. Each clock displayed
a different time of day.
When she asked St. Peter about the clocks, he replied, "We
have a clock for each person on earth and every time they tell
a lie the hands move. The clock ticks off one second each time
a lie is told."
Special attention was given to two clocks. The clock belonging
to Mother Teresa has never moved, indicating that she never
told a lie. The clock for Abraham Lincoln has only moved twice.
He only told two lies in his life.
Hillary asked, "Where is Bill's clock?" St. Peter replied,
"Jesus has it in His office...He is using it as a ceiling fan."
Bill Clinton was visiting an elementary school. When he
stepped into one of the classrooms, the young students
were in the middle of a discussion related to words and
their meanings. The teacher asked the President if he
would like to lead the class in the discussion of the word
"tragedy."
Our illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a
tragedy.
One little boy stood up and said, "If my best friend, who
lives next door, was playing in the street and a car came
along and ran over him, that would be a tragedy."
"No," said Clinton, "that would be an accident."
A little girl raised her hand. "If a school bus carrying fifty
children drove off a cliff, killing everyone involved, that
would be a tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explained the president. "That's what we
would call a great loss."
The room went silent. No other children volunteered.
Clinton searched the room. "Isn't there someone here
who can give me an example of a tragedy?"
Finally, in the back of the room, a small boy raised his
hand. In a quiet voice, he said, "If Air Force One,
carrying Mr. & Mrs. Clinton, was struck by a missile and
blown up to smithereens, that would be a tragedy!"
"Fantastic," exclaimed Clinton. "That's right! And can you
tell me WHY that would be a tragedy?"
"Well," said the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident,
and it certainly would be no great loss!"

Last summer, the President and Mrs. Clinton were
vacationing in their home state of Arkansas. On a
venture one day, they stopped at a service station to fill
up their car with gas. It seemed that the owner of the
station was once Hillary's high school love.
They exchanged hellos and then the White House
couple went on their way.
As they were driving on to their final destination, Bill put
his arm around Hillary and said, "Well, honey, if you had
stayed with him, you would now be the wife of a service
station owner."
She smirked and replied, "No! If I had stayed with him,
HE would be the President of the United States
TODAY!"

President Clinton looks up from his desk in the Oval
Office to see one of his aides nervously approach him.
"What is it?" yells the President.

"Just go ahead and pay it," responds the President.

Clinton returns from a vacation in Arkansas and walks

The guardsman replies, "Nice trade, Sir."

Hillary Clinton went in for her yearly checkup. When she
was finished, she asked her gynecologist how things
looked.
He said he was pleased and that she was in great
shape, but that she was pregnant.
She told the doctor there was no way, but he said that
she most definitely was a month pregnant. Beside
herself, she stormed out of the office and went to the
receptionist, took the phone and called the White House.
When the operator answered she said it was Hillary and
she wanted to talk to Bill right away.
The operator rang the oval office and Bill answered.
Hillary said, "Do you know what you did you rotten
bastard? You got me pregnant!"
The president remained silent.
Again, Hillary screamed, "DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU
DID, YOU ROTTEN BASTARD? YOU GOT ME
PREGNANT!"
Bill finally answered, "Who is this?"

Clinton's Speech Translated
Through the marvels of technology, we were able to use the new
patented Bullcrap-Canceler 9000 to see what President Clinton was
*really* trying to say in his August 17th Speech to the Nation.
[Translated comments are in brackets.]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"President Bill Clinton's Speech"
Aug. 17, 1998
CLINTON: Good evening.
[Yo.]
This afternoon in this room, from this chair, I testified before the
Office of Independent Counsel and the grand jury.
[Today, I got my ass dragged over the coals.]
I answered their questions truthfully, including questions about my
private life, questions no American citizen would ever want to answer.
[I was lying like crazy trying to cover my ass.]
Still, I must take complete responsibility for all my actions, both
public and private. And that is why I am speaking to you tonight.
[I got busted, and now I'm trying to minimize the damage.]
As you know, in a deposition in January, I was asked questions about
my relationship with Monica Lewinsky. While my answers were legally
accurate, I did not volunteer information.
[I conned everybody during the January deposition. I played a
semantics game and was able to slither away without actually telling
the truth.]
Indeed, I did have a relationship with Miss Lewinsky that was not
appropriate.
[I have given a new definition to the term "screwed by the
Government."]
In fact, it was wrong.
[We exhausted the Kama Sutra.]
It constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on
my part for which I am solely and completely responsible.
[I was horny.]
But I told the grand jury today, and I say to you now that at no time
did I ask anyone to lie, to hide or destroy evidence or to take any
other unlawful action.
[Hope you brought a shovel 'cause here comes the bullshit...]
I know that my public comments and my silence about this matter gave a
false impression.
[I lied like a bitch.]
I misled people, including even my wife. I deeply regret that.
[Guess who's not `getting any' tonight?]
I can only tell you I was motivated by many factors. First, by a
desire to protect myself from the embarrassment of my own conduct.
[I thought I'd get away with the whole damn thing.]
I was also very concerned about protecting my family.
[Not to mention my testicles; Hillary has her own version of
'Soccer.']
The fact that these questions were being asked in a politically
inspired lawsuit, which has since been dismissed, was a consideration,
too.
[I didn't think there was a chance in hell that things would ever go
this far.]
In addition, I had real and serious concerns about an independent
counsel investigation that began with private business dealings 20
years ago, dealings I might add about which an independent federal
agency found no evidence of any wrongdoing by me or my wife over two
years ago.
[I was worried that Ken Starr would dig up MORE dirt on me.]
The independent counsel investigation moved on to my staff and
friends, then into my private life. And now the investigation itself
is under investigation.
[I'm still continuing my efforts to discredit the people who've caught
me with my hand in the cookie jar.]
This has gone on too long, cost too much and hurt too many innocent
people.
[Can't everybody just leave me alone?? Boo-hoo! Whaaaaaahhh!!]
Now, this matter is between me, the two people I love most --
my wife and our daughter -- and our God.
[Git offa mah land 'fore I shoot me a trespasser!]
I must put it right, and I am prepared to do whatever it takes to do
so.
[If you think I bull-crapped you before, you ain't seen NOTHIN' yet!!]
Nothing is more important to me personally. But it is private, and I
intend to reclaim my family life for my family. It's nobody's business
but ours.
[The longer this matter stays in the public eye, the bigger my chances
are of being recognized as a two-bit punk who has a taste for tender,
young meat.]
Even presidents have private lives. It is time to stop the pursuit of
personal destruction and the prying into private lives and get on with
our National life.
[-cough- -cough- -choke- I'm having trouble breathing with this Smoke
Screen that's gone up...]
Our country has been distracted by this matter for too long, and I
take my responsibility for my part in all of this. That is all I can
do.
[I got busted but maybe you won't see though my flimsy facade.]
Now it is time -- in fact, it is past time, to move on.
[Mom! Make the Bad Man stop!!]
We have important work to do -- real opportunities to seize, real
problems to solve, real security matters to face.
[You are getting sleepy. Soon you will forget. Yes, forget
everything...]
And so tonight, I ask you to turn away from the spectacle of the past
seven months, to repair the fabric of our national discourse, and to
return our attention to all the challenges and all the promises of the
next American century.
[Now that I've made a laughing stock out of the US, given the Arab
Nations a legitimate reason to use the term 'American Pigs,' and blown
my credibility all to pieces, why not just grab a beer and pretend
like none of this ever happened? --C'mon, baby, relax.]
Thank you for watching.
[Sorry you had to see this.]
And Good Night.
[Ok! That's the signal! Al, shoot Hillary with the tranquilizer gun!
Chelsea, tell Air Force One to lay in a course for Tehran! I wanna go
somewhere safe!]
3A. In order for the admissions staff of our college to get to know you better, we
ask that you answer the following question:
Are there any significant experiences you have had, or accomplishments you
have realized that have helpd to define you as a person?
RESPONSE:
I am a dynamic figure, often scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known
to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the
area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-
winning operas, I manage time efficiently.
Occansionally, I tread water for three days in a row.
I woo women with my sensous god-like trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles
up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook 30-Minute brownies in 20.
I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love and an outlaw in Peru.
Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a
small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play
bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Mets, I am the subject of numerous
documentaries. When I'm bored I build large suspension bridges in my yard. I
enjoy urban hang gliding. On Wednesday's, after school I repair electrical
appliances free of charge.
I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie.
Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't
perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I recieve fan mail. I have been caller number
nine and have won weekend passes. Last summer I toured New Jersey with a
travelling centrifugal demonstration. I bat 400.
My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany
circles. Children trust me.
I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once
read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick and David Copperfield in one day and still had
time to refurbish an entire dinning room that evening. I know the exact location
of every food item in the supermarket. I have performed several covert
operations with the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair.
While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists
who had seized a small bakery.
The laws of physics do not apply to me.
I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic and my bills are all paid. On weekends, to let
off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I discovered the
meaning of life but forgotto write it down. I have made extraordinary four-
course meals using only a mouli and a toaster oven.
I breed prize winning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff diving
competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin.
I have played Hamlet, I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken
to Elvis.
But I have not yet gone to college.

College Majors:
1. ENGLISH: This involves writing papers about long books you have read
little snippets of just before class. Here is a tip on how to get good
grades on your English papers: Never say anything about a book that anybody
with any common sense would say. For example, suppose you are studying
Moby-Dick. Anybody with any common sense would say that Moby Dick is a big
white whale, since the characters in the book refer to it as a big white
whale roughly eleven thousand times. So in your paper, you say Moby-Dick is
actually the Republic of Ireland. Your professor, who is sick to death of
reading papers and never liked Moby Dick anyway, will think you are
enormously creative. If you can regularly come up with lunatic
interpretations of simple stories, you should major in English.
2. PHILOSOPHY: Basically, this involves sitting in a room and deciding there
is no such thing as reality and then going to lunch. You should major in
philosophy if you plan to take a lot of drugs.
3. PSYCHOLOGY: This involves talking about rats and dreams. Psychologists
are obsessed with rats and dreams. I once spent an entire semester training
a rat to punch little buttons in a certain sequence, then training my
roommate to do the same thing. The rat learned much faster. My roommate is
now a doctor. If you like rats or dreams, and above all if you dream about
rats, you should major in psychology.
4. SOCIOLOGY: For sheer lack of intelligibility, sociology is far and away
the number one subject. I sat through hundreds of hours of sociology
courses, and read gobs of sociology writing, and I never once heard or read
a coherent statement. This is because sociologists want to be considered
scientists, so they spend most of their time translating simple, obvious
observations into scientific - sounding code. If you plan to major in
sociology, you'll have to learn to do the same thing. For example, suppose
you have observed that children cry when they fall down. You should write:
"Methodological observation of the sociometrical behavior tendencies of
prematurated isolates indicates that a casual relationship exists between
groundward tropism and lachrimatory, or 'crying,' behavior forms." If you
can keep this up for fifty or sixty pages, you will get large government
grant.

College Student Confessions
Dear Mother and Dad:
It has now been three months since I left for college. I have
been remiss in writing and am very sorry for my
thoughtlessness in not having written before. I will bring you
up-to-date now, but before you read on, please sit down. You
are not to read any further unless you are sitting down...
Okay???
Well, then, I am getting along pretty well now. The skull
fracture and the concussion I got when I jumped out of the
window of my dormitory when it caught fire shortly after my
arrival, are pretty well healed now. I only spent two weeks in
the hospital and now I can see almost normally and only get
three headaches a day.
Fortunately the fire in the dormitory and my jump were
witnessed by an attendant at the gas station near the dorm and
he was the one who called the Fire Department and the
ambulance. He also visited me at the hospital, and since I had
nowhere to live because of the burnt-out dorm, he was kind
enough to invite me to share his apartment with him. It's really
a basement room, but it is kind of cute.
He is a very fine boy and we have fallen deeply in love and
are planning to get married. We haven't set the exact date yet,
but it will be before my pregnancy begins to show. Yes,
Mother and Dad, I am pregnant. I know how much you are
looking forward to being grandparents and I know you will
welcome the baby and give it the same love and devotion and
tender care you gave me when I was a child.
The reason for the delay in our marriage is that my boyfriend
has some minor infection which prevents us from passing our
premarital blood tests and I carelessly caught it from him. This
will soon clear up with the penicillin injections we are taking
daily. I know you will welcome him into our family with open
arms. He is kind, and, although not well educated, he is
ambitious. Although he is of a different race and religion than
ours, I know your expressed tolerance will not permit you to
be bothered by these facts. I am sure you will love him as I do.
His family background is good, too, for I am told that his
father is an important gun bearer in the village from which he
comes.
Now that I have brought you up-to-date, I want to tell you that
there was no dormitory fire, I did not have a concussion or
skull fracture, I was not in the hospital, I am not pregnant, I
am not engaged, and I do not have syphilis...
However, I am getting a "D" in history and an "F" in biology,
and I wanted you to see these marks in the proper perspective.
Your loving daughter,
Charlene
Colored or Not?
A black man walks into a cafe one early morning and noticed that
he was the only black man there. As he sat down, he noticed a
white man behind him. The white man said, "Colored people are not
allowed here."
The black man turned around and stood up. He then said:
"When I was born I was black,"
"When I grew up I was black,"
"When I'm sick I'm black,"
"When I go in the sun I'm black,"
"When I'm cold I'm black,"
"When I die I'll be black."
"But you sir..."
"When you're born you're pink,"
"When you grow up you're white,"
"When you're sick, you're green,"
"When you go in the sun you turn red,"
"When you're cold you turn blue,"
"And when you die you turn purple."
"And you have the nerve to call me colored!!!"
The black man then sat back down and the white man walked away...
Pass this on and help erase racism!

nature is embodied in many delightful and intriguing characters, all
of whom are executed. (Erik Anderson, Tempe, Ariz.)
"Green Eggs and Hamlet" -- Would you kill him in his bed? /
Thrust a dagger through his head? / I would not, could not, kill the
King. / I could not do that evil thing. / I would not wed this girl,
you see. / Now get her to a nunnery. (Robin Parry, Arlington)
"Fahrenheit 451 of the Vanities" -- An '80s yuppie is denied books.

cloistered in bell tower by despicable clergymen. And that's the good
news ... (John Verba, Washington)
"The Maltese Faulkner" -- Is the black bird a tortured symbol of Sam's
struggles with race and family? Does it signify his decay of soul
along with the soul of the Old South? Is it merely a crow, mocking his
attempts to understand? Or is it worth a cool mil? (Thad Humphries,
Warrenton)
"The Silence of the Hams" -- In this endearing update of the Seuss
classic, young Sam-I-Am presses unconventional foodstuffs on his
friend, Hannibal, who turns the tables. (Mark Eckenwiler, Washington)

left hand. (Tom Witte, Gaithersburg)***

lead the Chicago Bulls to the NBA championship. (Dave Pickering, Bowie)

Bolshevik firing squad, the former czar and czarina join a troupe of
actors only to find that playing the Palace isn't as grand as living in
it.
(Sandra Hull, Arlington)

probably flunk out of prep school, but if you're flunking out of prep
school, you're probably not insane. (Brendan Beary, Great Mills)
"Tarzan of the Grapes" -- The beleaguered Okies of the dust bowl are
saved by a strong and brave savage who swings from grapevine to
grapevine. (Joseph Romm, Washington)
"Where's Walden?" -- Alas, the challenge of locating Henry David
Thoreau in each richly detailed drawing loses its appeal when it
quickly becomes clear that he is always in the woods. (Sandra Hull,
Arlington)
"Looking for Mr. Godot" -- A young woman waits for Mr. Right to enter
her life. She has a looong wait. (Jonathan Paul, Garrett Park)
"Rikki-Kon-Tiki-Tavi" -- Thor Heyerdahl recounts his attempt to prove
Rudyard Kipling's theory that the mongoose first came to India on a
raft from Polynesia. (David Laughton, Washington)

Anderson tell the unforgettable story of one man's ambitious quest to
nail every woman in his home town. (Grady Norris, New Bern, N.C.)

Computers male or female?
A pastor of one church who was previously a sailor was very aware of
the fact that that ships are addressed as 'she' and 'her'. He often
wondered what gender computers should be addressed. To answer that
question, he set up two groups of computer experts. The first was
comprised of women, and the second of men. Each group was asked to
recommend whether computers should be referred to in the feminine
gender, or the masculine gender. They were asked to give 4 reasons
for their recommendation.
The group of women reported that the computers should be referred to
in the masculine gender because:
1. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
2. They have a lot of data, but are still clueless.
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time
they are the problem.
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that, if you had waited
a little longer, you could have had a better model.
The men, on the other hand concluded that computers should be
referred to in the feminine gender because:
1. No one but the Creator understands their internal logic.
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers
is incomprehensible to everyone else.
3. Even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for
later retrieval.
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself
spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
5. The message, "Bad command or filename" , is about
as informative as "If you don't know why I'm mad at you,
then I'm certainly not going to tell you."

A sixty year old man walks into a big drug store and walks up to the
girl at checkout #3. He asks her, "Do you guys have condoms here?"
She says "Sure. What size are you?"
"I don't know" he replies.
"Well, just let me check" the cashier says. She unzips his pants,
takes a feel, and then she says over the intercom, "EXTRA LARGE CONDOMS
TO AISLE 3 PLEASE. EXTRA LARGE CONDOMS TO AISLE 3."
They bring the condoms and the man pays for them and leaves. Then, a
thirty year old man walks into the store and up to checkout #3. He asks
the girl, "Do you sell condoms here?"
The cashier replies, "Sure, but what size do you need?"
He says "Well, I don't know."
She says "Just let me check here." She unzips his pants, takes a
couple of tugs and then says over the intercom, "LARGE CONDOMS TO AISLE
3 PLEASE. LARGE CONDOMS TO AISLE 3." They bring the condoms and the man
pays for them and leaves.
Seeing this, a fifteen year old boy who hopes to get lucky goes up to
the girl at checkout #3 and asks sheepishly, "Um, ah, do you guys sell
any condoms here?"
"Yep" she says. "What size do you need?"
"I don't know" he says.
She unzips his zipper for a feel, pauses and says over the intercom,
"CLEAN UP IN AISLE 3 PLEASE. CLEAN UP IN AISLE 3."
Subject: Not So Sharp
TICONDEROGA, N.Y. (AP) - A company is trying to erase an embarrassing
mistake it made on pencils bearing an anti-drug message. The pencils
carry the slogan: "Too Cool to Do Drugs." But a sharp-eyed
fourth-grader in northern New York noticed when the pencils are
sharpened, the message turns into "Cool to Do Drugs" then simply "Do
Drugs." As a result of the discovery by 10-year-old Kodi Mosier of
Ticonderoga Elementary School, The Bureau For At-Risk Youth of
Plainview, recalled the pencils. A new batch of pencils will have the
message written in the opposite direction. For pointing out the
botched message, Moiser earned his class a letter of apology from the
company and box full of T-shirts. ###
The Corkscrew
Gary and Martin were standing at the urinals in a public
lavatory, when Gary glanced over and noticed that Martin's
penis was twisted like a corkscrew.
"Wow," Gary said. "I've never seen one like that before."
"Like what?" Martin said.
"All twisted like a pig's tail," Gary said.
"Well, what's yours like?" Martin said.
"Straight, like normal," Gary said.
"I thought mine was normal until I saw yours," Martin
said.
Gary finished what he was doing and started to give
his old boy a shakedown prior to putting it back in
his pants. "What did you do that for?" Martin said.
"Shaking off the excess drops," Gary said. "Like normal."
"&%$#@ !," Martin said. "And all these years I've been
wringing it."
This originated in the Philippines, and expounds on the Filipino love of
acronyms.

1994's MOST BIZARRE SUICIDE
At the 1994 annual awards dinner given by the American Association for
Forensic Science, AAFS president Don Harper Mills astounded his audience in
San Diego with the legal complications of a bizarre death. Here is the story:
On 23 March 1994, the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and
concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head. The decedent had
jumped from the top of a ten-story building intending to commit suicide (he left
a note indicating his despondency). As he fell past the ninth floor, his life was
interrupted by a shotgun blast through a window, which killed him instantly.
Neither the shooter nor the decedent was aware that a safety net had been
erected at the eighth floor level to protect some window washers and that Opus
would not have been able to complete his suicide anyway because of this.
Ordinarily, Dr. Mills continued, a person who sets out to commit suicide
ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended.
That Opus was shot on the way to certain death nine stories below probably
would not have changed his mode of death from suicide to homicide. But the
fact that his suicidal intent would not have been successful caused the medical
examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands. The room on the ninth
floor whence the shotgun blast emanated was occupied by and elderly man and
his wife. They were arguing and he was threatening her with the shotgun. He
was so upset that, when he pulled the trigger, he completely missed his wife and
pellets went through the window striking Opus. When one intends to kill subject
A but kills subject B in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject B.
When confronted with this charge, the old man and his wife were both adamant
that neither knew that the shotgun was loaded. The old man said it was his long
standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no
intention to murder her - therefore, the killing of Opus appeared to be an
accident. That is, the gun had been accidentally loaded.
The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son
loading the shotgun approximately six weeks prior to the fatal incident. It
transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son,
knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the
gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother. The case now
becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus.
There was an exquisite twist. Further investigation revealed that the son, one
Ronald Opus, had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his
attempt to engineer his mother's murder. This led him to jump off the ten- story
building on March 23, only to be killed by a shotgun blast through a ninth story
window.
The medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.

Europe in their car. They get to Transylvania and are stopped at a
traffic light. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a diminutive Dracula jumps
onto the hood of the car and hissesat them, through the windshield.
"Quick, quick!" shouts Sister Marilyn. "What shall we do?"
"Turn the windshield wipers on. That will get rid of the
abomination," says Sister Helen.
Sister Marilyn switches them on, knocking Dracula about, but he
clings on and continues hissing at the nuns. "What shall I do now?"
she shouts.
"Switch on the windshield washer. I filled it up with Holy Water in
the Vatican," says Sister Helen.
Sister Marilyn turns on the windshield washer. Dracula screams as
the water burns his skin, but he clings on and continues hissing at
the nuns.
"Now what?" shouts Sister Marilyn. As Dracula hangs on.
"Show him your cross," says Sister Helen.
"Now you're talking," says Sister Marilyn as she opens the window and
and shouts, ... "Get the Fuck off our car!! "
A Crying Pregnant Blonde
There were three women sitting in a doctor's office,
a blond, a brunette, and a red-head. They were all pregnant.
"I'm having a boy because I was on the bottom," said
the brunette.
"Well, I'm having a girl because I was on top," said
the red-head.
All of a sudden the blond started crying. They asked
her what was wrong. "I'm having puppies," exclaimed the blond.
Just after this guy gets married, he was invited out for a
night with "the boys." He accepts and then tells his new
bride not to worry, because he'd "be home by midnight...promise!"
Well, the darts were landing just right and the grog was going
down easy, and at around 3 a.m. drunk as can be the guy finally
stumbles home. Just as he gets in the door, the cuckoo clock
started, and cuckooed three times. Quickly he realized she'd
probably been woken up by the clock, so he cuckooed another nine
times to make her think it was midnight. He was really proud of
himself, having the quick wits, even when smashed, to escape a
possible conflict.
Next morning the missus asked him what time he got in and he
tells her, "12 o'clock, dear!" Whew! Got away with that one!
"Hmmm, I think we need a new cuckoo clock," she says over her
morning coffee.
"Why is that?" the husband asks.
"Well, it cuckooed three times, said 'shoot,' cuckooed another
four times, farted, cuckooed another three times, cleared its
throat; cuckooed two more times, and then giggled."
Cure for Snoring
By the time a Marine pulled into a little town, every hotel room was taken.
"You've got to have a room somewhere," he pleaded. "Or just a bed, I don't care where."
"Well, I do have a double room with one occupant, a Navy guy," admitted the manager, "and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I'm not sure it'd be worth it to you."
"No problem," the tired Marine assured him. "I'll take it."
The next morning the Marine came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. "How'd you sleep?" Asked the manager. "Never better."
The manager was impressed. "No problem with the other guy snoring, then?"
"Nope, I shut him up in no time." Said the Marine.
"How'd you manage that?" asked the manager.
"He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room," the Marine explained. "I went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, 'Goodnight, beautiful,' and he sat up all night watching me."
REAL LIFE CYBER SEX
On-line computer users often engage in what is
affectionately known as "cyber sex." Often the fantasies typed into
keyboards and shared through Internet phone lines get pretty
raunchy. However, as you'll see below, one of the two cyber-surfers
in the following transcript of an on-line chat doesn't seem to quite
get the point of cyber sex.
Then again, maybe he does...
Wellhung: Hello, Sweetheart. What do you look like?
Sweetheart: I am wearing a red silk blouse, a miniskirt and high
heels. I work out every day, I'm toned and perfect. My measurements
are 36-24-36. What do you look like?
Wellhung: I'm 6'3" and about 250 pounds. I wear glasses and I have on
a pair of blue sweat pants I just bought from Walmart. I'm also
wearing a T-shirt with a few spots of barbecue sauce on it from
dinner...it smells funny.
Sweetheart: I want you. Would you like to screw me?
Wellhung: OK
Sweetheart: We're in my bedroom. There's soft music playing on the
stereo and candles on my dresser and night table. I'm looking up into
your eyes, smiling. My hand works its way down to your crotch and
begins to fondle your huge, swelling bulge.
Wellhung: I'm gulping, I'm beginning to sweat.
Sweetheart: I'm pulling up your shirt and kissing your chest.
Wellhung: Now I'm unbuttoning your blouse. My hands are trembling.
Sweetheart: I'm moaning softly.
Wellhung: I'm taking hold of your blouse and sliding it off slowly.
Sweetheart: I'm throwing my head back in pleasure. The cool silk
slides off my warm skin. I'm rubbing you bulge faster, pulling and
rubbing.
Wellhung: My hand suddenly jerks spastically and accidentally rips a
hole in your blouse. I'm sorry.
Sweetheart: That's OK, it wasn't really too expensive.
Wellhung: I'll pay for it.
Sweetheart: Don't worry about it. I'm wearing a lacy black bra.
My soft breasts are rising and falling, as I breath harder and harder.
Wellhung: I'm fumbling with the clasp on your bra. I think it's
stuck. Do you have any scissors?
Sweetheart: I take your hand and kiss it softly. I'm reaching back
undoing the clasp. The bra slides off my body. The air caresses my
breast. My nipples are erect for you.
Wellhung: How did you do that? I'm picking up the bra and inspecting
the clasp.
Sweetheart: I'm arching my back. Oh baby. I just want to feel your
tongue all over me.
Wellhung: I'm dropping the bra. Now I'm licking your, you know,
breasts. They're neat!
Sweetheart: I'm running my fingers through your hair. Now I'm
nibbling your ear.
Wellhung: I suddenly sneeze. Your breast are covered with spit and
phlegm.
Sweetheart: What?
Wellhung: I'm so sorry; Really.
Sweetheart: I'm wiping your phlegm off my breasts with the remains of
my blouse.
Wellhung: I'm taking the sopping wet blouse from you. I drop it
with a
Sweetheart: OK. I'm pulling your sweat pants down and rubbing your
hard tool.
Wellhung: I'm screaming like a woman. Your hands are cold! Yeeee!
Sweetheart: I'm pulling up my miniskirt. Take off my panties.
Wellhung: I'm pulling off your panties. My tongue is going all over,
in and out nibbling on you...umm... wait a minute.
Sweetheart: What's the matter?
Wellhung: I've got a pubic hair caught in my throat. I'm choking.
Sweetheart: Are you OK?
Wellhung: I'm having a coughing fit. I'm turning all red.
Sweetheart: Can I help?
Wellhung: I'm running to the kitchen, choking wildly. I'm fumbling
through the cabinets, looking for a cup. Where do you keep your
cups?
Sweetheart: In the cabinet to the right of the sink.
Wellhung: I'm drinking a cup of water. There, that's better.
Sweetheart: Come back to me, lover.
Wellhung: I'm washing the cup now.
Sweetheart: I'm on the bed arching for you.
Wellhung: I'm drying the cup. Now I'm putting it back in the cabinet.
And now I'm walking back to the bedroom. Wait, it's dark, I'm lost.
Where's the bedroom?
Sweetheart: Last door on the left at the end of the hall.
Wellhung: I found it.
Sweetheart: I'm tuggin' off your pants. I'm moaning. I want you so
badly.
Wellhung: Me too.
Sweetheart: Your pants are off. I kiss you passionately-our naked
bodies pressing each other.
Wellhung: Your face is pushing my glasses into my face. It hurts.
Sweetheart: Why don't you take off your glasses?
Wellhung: OK, but I can't see very well without them. I place the
glasses on the night table.
Sweetheart: I'm bending over the bed. Give it to me, baby!
Wellhung: I have to pee. I'm fumbling my way blindly across the
room and toward the bathroom.
Sweetheart: Hurry back, lover.
Wellhung: I find the bathroom and it's dark. I'm feeling around
for the toilet. I lift the lid.
Sweetheart: I'm waiting eagerly for your return.
Wellhung: I'm done going. I'm feeling around for the flush handle,
but I can't find it. Uh-oh!
Sweetheart: What's the matter now?
Wellhung: I've realized that I've peed into your laundry hamper.
Sorry again. I'm walking back to the bedroom now, blindly feeling
my way.
Sweetheart: Mmm, yes. Come on.
Wellhung: OK, now I'm going to put my...you know ...thing...in
your...you know...woman's thing.
Sweetheart: Yes! Do it, baby! Do it!
Wellhung: I'm touching your smooth butt. It feels so nice. I kiss
your neck. Umm, I'm having a little trouble here.
Sweetheart: I'm moving my ass back and forth, moaning. I can't stand
it another second! Slide in! Screw me now!
Wellhung: I'm flaccid.
Sweetheart: What?
Wellhung: I'm limp. I can't sustain an erection.
Sweetheart: I'm standing up and turning around; an incredulous look
on my face.
Wellhung: I'm shrugging with a sad look on my face, my weiner all
floppy. I'm going to get my glasses and see what's wrong.
Sweetheart: No, never mind. I'm getting dressed. I'm putting on my
underwear. Now I'm putting on my wet nasty blouse.
Wellhung: No wait! Now I'm squinting, trying to find the night table.
I'm feeling along the dresser, knocking over cans of hair spray,
picture frames and your candles.
Sweetheart: I'm buttoning my blouse. Now I'm putting on my shoes.
Wellhung: I've found my glasses. I'm putting them on. My God!
One of your candles fell on the curtain. The curtain is on fire! I'm
pointing at it, a shocked look on my face.
Sweetheart: Go to hell. I'm logging off, you loser!
Wellhung: Now the carpet is on fire! Oh noooo!
Sweetheart:

Yes, it is the 1999 Darwin Awards. For those sheltered few of
you who are not fully aware of the Darwin Awards; these awards
are given annually (and posthumously) to those individuals who
did the most for the human gene pool by removing themselves
from it.
GRAVITY KILLS A 22-year-old Reston man was found dead
yesterday after he tried to use'occy' straps (the stretchy little
ropes with hooks on each end) to bungee jump off a 70-foot
railroad trestle, police said. Fairfax County police said Eric A.
Barcia, a fast-food worker, taped a bunch of these straps
together, wrapped an end around one foot anchored the other
end to the trestle at Lake Accotink Park, jumped... and hit the
pavement. Warren Carmichael, a police spokesman, said
investigators think Barcia was alone because his car was found
nearby. "The length of the cord that he had assembled was
greater than the distance between the trestle and the ground,"
Carmichael said. Police say the apparent cause of death was
"major trauma." An autopsy is scheduled for later in the week.
LAUNCHED ON THE FOURTH OF JULY Three young men in
Oklahoma were enjoying the upcoming Fourth of July holiday
and wanted to apparently test fire some fireworks. Their only real
problem was that their launch pad and seating arrangements
were atop a several hundred thousand gallon fuel distillation
storage tank. Oddly enough, some fumes were ignited,
producing a fireball seen for miles. They were launched several
hundred feet into the air and were found dead 250 yards from
their respective seats.
DON'T ASK GOD TO PROVE HIMSELF, HE JUST MIGHT A
lawyer and two buddies were fishing on Caddo Lake in Texas
when a lightning storm hit the lake. Most of the other boats
immediately headed for the shore, but not our friend the lawyer.
On the rear of his aluminum bass boat with his buddies, this
individual stood up, spread his arms wide (crucifixion style) and
shouted: "HERE I AM LORD, LET ME HAVE IT!" Needless to
say, God delivered. The other two passengers on the boat
survived the lightning strike with minor bums.
CATCH A man in Alabama died from rattlesnake bites. Big deal
you may say, but there's a twist here that makes him a
candidate. It seems he and a friend were playing catch with a
rattlesnake. You can guess what happened from here. The friend
(a future Darwin Awards candidate) was hospitalized.
THEY SAY THOSE THINGS WILL KILL YOU Not much was
given to me on this unlucky fellow, but he qualifies nonetheless.
You see, there was a gentleman from Korea who was killed by
his cell phone... more or less. He was doing the usual "walking
and talking" when he walked into a tree and managed to
somehow break his neck. Keep that in mind the next time you
decide to drive and dial at the same time.
GIMME A LIGHT In a west Texas town, employees in a medium-
sized warehouse noticed the smell of gas. Sensibly,
management evacuated the building, extinguishing all potential
sources of ignition-lights, power, etc. After the building had been
evacuated, two technicians from the gas company were
dispatched. Upon entering the building, they found they had
difficulty navigating in the dark. To their frustration, none of the
lights worked. Witnesses later described the vision of one of the
technicians reaching nto his pocket and retrieving an object that
resembled a lighter. Upon operation of the lighter-like object, the
gas in the warehouse exploded, sending pieces of it up to three
miles away. Nothing was found of the technicians, but the lighter
was virtually untouched by the explosion. The technician that
was suspected of causing the explosion had never been thought
of as "bright" by his peers.
RUNNER UP . . . A Vermont native, Ronald Demuth, found
himself in a difficult position yesterday. While touring the Eagle's
Rock African Safari (Zoo) with a group of thespians from St.
Petersburg, Russia, Mr. Demuth went overboard to show them
one of America's many marvels. He demonstrated the
effectiveness of "Crazy Glue"... the hard way. Apparently, Mr.
Demuth wanted to demonstrate just how good the adhesive was,
so he put about 3 ounces of the adhesive in the palms of his
hands, and jokingly placed them on the buttocks of a passing
rhino. The rhino, a resident of the zoo for the past thirteen years,
was not initially startled as it has been part of the petting exhibit
since its arrival as a baby. However, once it became aware of its
being involuntarily stuck to Mr. Demuth, it began to panic and ran
around the petting area wildly making Mr. Demuth an unintended
passenger.
"Sally [the rhino] hasn't been feeling well lately. She had been
very constipated. We had just given her a laxative and some
depressants to relax her bowels, when Mr.Demuth played his
juvenile prank," said James Douglass, caretaker. During Sally's
tirade two fences were destroyed, a shed wall was gored, and a
number of small animals escaped. Also, during the stampede,
three pygmy goats and one duck were stomped to death. As for
Demuth, it took a team of medics and zoo caretakers' to remove
his hands from her buttocks. First, the animal had to be captured
and calmed down. However, during this process the laxatives
began to take hold and Mr. Demuth was repeatedly showered
with over 30 gallons of rhino diarrhea.
"It was tricky. We had to calm her down, while at the same time
shield our faces from being pelted with rhino dung. I guess you
could say that Mr. Demuth was into it up to his neck. Once she
was under control, we had three people with shovels working to
keep an air passage open for Mr. Demuth. We were able to
tranquilize her and apply a solvent to remove his hands from her
rear," said Douglass. "I don't think he'll be playing with Crazy
Glue for a while." Meanwhile, the Russians, while obviously
amused, also were impressed with the power of the adhesive.
"I'm going to buy some for my children, but of course they can't
take it to the zoo," commented Vladimir Zolnikov, leader of the
troupe.
CLEANER POLISHES OFF PATIENTS (Second Runner-Up)
"For several months, our nurses have been baffled to find a
patient dead in the same bed every Friday morning" a
spokeswoman for the Pelonomi Hospital (Free State, South
Africa) told reporters. "There was no apparent cause for any of
the deaths, and extensive checks on the air conditioning system,
and a search for possible bacterial infection, failed to reveal any
clues." "However, further inquiries have now revealed the cause
of these deaths...
"It seems that every Friday morning a cleaning lady would enter
the ward, remove the plug that powered the patient's life support
system, plug her floor polisher into the vacant socket, then go
about her business. When she had finished her chores, she
would plug the life support machine back in and leave, unaware
that the patient was now dead. She could not, after all, hear the
death rattle and eventual the solid beep over the whirring of her
polisher".
"We are sorry, and have sent a strong letter to the cleaner in
question. Further, the Free State Health and Welfare Department
is arranging for an electrician to fit an extra socket, so there
should be no repetition of this incident. The inquiry is now
closed." (Cape Times).
This year's winner is ..... True Story From Michigan, USA.
(Nothing this absurd could be fiction!) Guy buys a brand new
Grand Cherokee for $30,000+, & has $400.00+ in monthly
payments. He's pretty proud of this rig, & gets a hold of his friend
to do some male bonding with the new ride. They go duck
hunting & of course all the lakes are frozen. These two Atomic
Brains go to the lake with their guns, the dog, the beer & of
course the new vehicle. They drive out onto the ice.
Now, they want to make some kind of a natural landing area to
attract ducks-something the decoys will float on. Remember it's
all ice, & in order to make a hole large enough to interest a flock
of ducks-a hole big enough to entice ducks to land-they needed
to use a little more than an ice fishing hole drill. Sooooo, out of
the back of the brand-new Jeep Grand Cherokee comes a stick
of dynamite with a short 40-second fuse. To their credit, these
two rocket scientists DID take into consideration that if they
placed the stick of dynamite on the ice at a location far from
where they (& the new Grand Cherokee) would be waiting & ran
back quickly, they would risk slipping on the ice as they ran from
the imminent explosion & could possibly go up in smoke with the
resulting blast.
After a little deliberation, they come up with a brilliant idea -- &
THROWING the dynamite, which is what they end up doing.
Remember a couple of paragraphs back, I mentioned the
vehicle, the beer, the guns &THE DOG ???? Yes, the dog. The
driver's pet Black Lab (used for retrieving-especially things
thrown by the owner). You guessed it, the dog takes off at a high
rate of doggy speed on the ice, reaching the stick of dynamite
with the burning 40 second fuse about the time it hits the ice - all
to the woe of the two idiots which are now yelling, stomping feet,
waving arms & wondering what the heck to do now. The dog is
happy & now heads back toward the "hunters" with the stick of
dynamite.
I think we all can picture the ever-increasing concern on the part
of the brain trust, as the loyal Labrador Retriever approaches.
The Bozos now are REALLY waving their arms-yelling even
louder & generally feeling kinda panicked. Now finally one of the
guys decides to think - something that neither had done before
this moment, grabs a shotgun & shoots the dog. This sounds
better than it really is, because the shotgun was loaded with #8
duck shot & hardly effective enough to stop a Black Lab. The
dog DID stop for a moment, slightly confused, but then continued
on. Another shot, & this time the dog-still standing, became
REALLY confused & of course scared. Thinking that these two
Nobel Prize Winners have gone TOTALLY insane, the pooch
takes off to find cover with a now extremely short fuse still
burning on the stick of dynamite. The cover the dogs finds?
Underneath the brand new Grand Cherokee worth 30-some
thousand dollars - the $400.00+ monthly payment vehicle that is
sitting nearby on the lake ice.
KA-BOOM!
Dog dies, what's left of the vehicle sinks to bottom of lake, &
these two "Co- Leaders of the Known Universe" are left standing
there with this "I can't believe this happened to me" look on their
faces. Later, the owner of the vehicle calls his insurance
company & is promptly informed that sinking a vehicle in a lake
by illegal use of explosives is NOT covered on his policy. He had
yet to make his first car payment.

Little Tim was in the garden filling in a hole when his
neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the
rosy-cheeked youngster was up to, he politely asked,
"What are you up to there, Tim?"
"My goldfish died," replied Tim tearfully, without looking
up, "and I've just buried him."
The neighbor was concerned, "That's an awfully big hole
for a goldfish, isn't it?"
Tim patted down the last heap of earth then replied,
"That's because he's inside your freakin' cat!"
A man is driving along a highway and sees a rabbit jump out
across the middle of the road. He swerves to avoid hitting it,
but unfortunately the rabbit jumps right in front of the car. The
driver, a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulls over
and gets out to see what has become of the rabbit.
Much to his dismay, the rabbit is dead.
The driver feels so awful that he begins to cry.
A beautiful blonde woman driving down the highway sees a
man crying on the side of a road and pulls over. She steps out
of the car and asks the man what's wrong.
"I feel terrible," he explains, "I accidentally hit this rabbit and
killed it."
The blonde says, "Don't worry." She runs to her car and pulls
out a spray can. She walks over to the limp, dead rabbit, bends
down, and sprays the contents onto the rabbit.
The rabbit jumps up, waves its paw at the two of them and hops
off down the road.
Ten feet away the rabbit stops, turns around and waves again,
he hops down the road another 10 feet, turns and waves, hops
another ten feet, turns and waves, and repeats this again and
again and again, until he hops out of sight.
The man is astonished.
He runs over to the woman and demands,"What is in that can?"
The woman turns the can around so that the man can read the
label. It says . .
(Are you ready for this?)
(Are you sure?)
(This is bad!)
(You know you could just click off and not read the punchline)
(You know your gonna be sorry)
(Last chance)
(OK, here it is)
... It says, "Hair Spray - Restores life to dead hair, adds
permanent wave."
Dear Dr. Laura,
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show; and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle; for example; I simply remind him that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you; however; regarding some of the specific laws and how to best follow them.
a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice; I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery; as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age; what do you think would be a fair price for her?
c) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is; how do I tell? I have tried asking; but most women take offense.
d) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves; both male and female; provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans; but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
e) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?
f) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an Abomination (Lev. 11:10); it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?
g) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20; or is there some wiggle room here?
h) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed; including the hair around their temples; even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
i) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean; but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
j) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field; as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread. (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev. 24:10-16). Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
I know you have studied these things extensively; so I am confident you can help.
Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.
Do you realize that every year, hundreds of thousands of people suffer
from a condition commonly known as "death"?
That's right. In fact, death is THE NUMBER ONE leading cause of loss of
life in America today!!!!!
If you would like to help stop this horrible travity, SEND THIS TO
EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!
If more people die, its your own fault!
Thank You,
Jason Ho
Jake was on his deathbed. His wife, Becky, was maintaining a vigil by
his side. She held his fragile hand; tears ran down her face. Her
praying roused him from his slumber. He looked up and his pale lips began
to move slightly. "My darling Becky," he whispered.
"Hush, my love," she said. "Rest. Shhh.... don't talk."
He was insistent. "Becky," he said in his tired voice. "I have something
I must confess to you."
"There's nothing to confess," replied the weeping Becky. "Everything's all
right, go to sleep."
"No, no. I must die in peace, Becky. I slept with your sister, your best
friend, and your mother."
"I know," answered Becky, "that's why I poisoned you."
Nick & Dave's Detailed Analysis of Wannabe
The first thirty seconds or so of this song can be wound up as such:
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want
The Spice Girls continually ask each other what they want, without recieving an
answer. Why don't they ask someone who might give them a straight answer,
instead of each other, who seem unable to do this? Probably because the average
answer would be something along the lines of "I really really want you to shut
the fuck up."
The next point of interest in the song is a somewhat baffling one, when we
finally recieve the answer to Tell me what you want. It is:
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really really really wanna zigazig
ha.
Obviously they wanna "zigazig ha." But as yet, linguistic scholars have not been
able to work out what the phrase "zigazig ha" actually means. It is not contained
anywhere within the twenty four volumes of the Complete Oxford English
Dictionary, nor can it be found in the vocabularies of some of the worlds least
used dialects including Ancient Sanskrit, Waorani Amazonian, or Scottish
Gaelic. Perhaps it is some funny midlands expression that the world is yet to
discover. (Nick remembers reading somewhere that one of the girls is quoted as
saying something like "I'm really an alien from outer space." This may help.)
However, it is possible to deduce the meaning by looking at the rest of the
sentence. We find that "zigazig ha" is an action which they want to perform.
Thus, we worked out that the most likely possible meanings were:
I really really really wanna learn some new words other than "wanna" and
"really."
I really really really wanna find someone that won't keep asking me to "get to
the point" when I'm telling them what I really really want.
I really really really wanna watch Ninja Turtles 2 again so I can learn more
about how to rap.
I really really really wanna visit a speech therapist.
I really really really wanna have people think that I am an African-American
from Los Angeles and not an Anglo-Saxon from the East Midlands of England.
The chorus, which can be summed up as:
If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends.
had members of the Christian Coalition burning the CD because of its "sexual
immorality". However, we believe this is a superficial interpritation which does
not capture the true meaning of the chorus. Rather, "get with my friends" means:
"give me and my friends a recording contract". 'Nuff said.
The next part of the song relates to the commitments involved (if you wanna be
my lover...), ending with,
If you really bug me, then I'll say goodbye.
This calls for protest. The Spice Girls have bugged the whole world for the past
year with their constant streme of mindless drival over the FM radio stations,
and now they say, "If YOU really bug ME"! Are they saying that in the United
Kingdom, which has a population of about 60 million, there is actually someone
who annoys people more than they do? I'd like to see that!
Next the first parts of the song and chorus are repeated, and then comes the most
tragic part of the song: the "rap." I have never been a huge fan of rap, but like
most people, I recognise it as one of the latest chapters in a great musical history
of black Americans' defiance of oppression. The Spice Girls have taken that, and
turned it into a pathetic story about their friends (sung in a code which no-one
but themselves can understand), and sung in a pissy glish-trying-to-be-
American-and-failing-dismaly accent. It is quite clear that there has never been a
drive-by shooting in Nottingham, though, if this continues to be played on the
radio stations, there may be one soon...
The final part of the song is somewhat confusing, the gist of it being:
If you wanna be my lover, you gotta slam your body down and wind it all
around.
This is a clear admission that you will be writhing in agony if exposed to the
influence of the Spice Girls for a polonged period. In fact, we already are.
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE
25.In high school, you do homework. In college, you study.
24.No food is allowed in the hall in high school. In college food
must be provided at an event fore students will come.
23.In high school, you carry your book bag on one shoulder. In
college you carry your book bag on both shoulders.
22.In college professors can tell you the answer without looking at
the teacher's guide.
21.In college there are no 'Tardy Slips'
20.In high school you live with your parents. In college you live
with your friends.
19.In college, you don't have to wait in a certain lunch line to be
'cool'.
18.Only nerds e-mailed in high school because the cool kids 'didn't
know what it was'.
17.In high school you're told what classes to take. In college you
get to choose, that is as long as the
classes don't conflict, that you have the prerequisites, that the
classes aren't closed, and that you have paid your tuition.
16.In high school, if you screw up you can usually sweet-talk your
way out of it. In college, you're
lucky to ever talk to the professor.
15.In high school, fire drills are planned by the administration.
In college, the fire drills are
planned by drunk fraternity guys coming home when the bars have
finally stopped serving them.
14.In college, any test consists of a larger percentage of your
grade that your high school final exams ever did.
13.In high school, when the teacher said "Good Morning" you mumbled
something back. In college, when the teacher says "Good Morning", you
write it down.
12..In high school, freshmen guys hit on senior girls. In college,
senior guys hit on freshmen girls.
11.In college, the weekends start on Thursday. (WOOHOO!!)
10.In college, it's much more difficult to figure out the course
schedule of that man/woman you have a crush on, in order to figure out
where he/she will be on campus at a certain time so you can
accidentally' bump into him/her.
9.Once you've obtained the info in #10, its much more time-consuming
to run between classes to that place where you know he/she will be to
'accidentally' bump into them.
8.In college, there's no one to tell you not to eat pizza three
meals a day.
7.In high school you drink Coca Cola. In college you dilute Vodka.
6.In high school it never took three weeks to get money from mom and
dad to go on a date.
5.College men are 'hot' while high school BOYS are 'cute'.
4.College women are legal. (WOOHOO!!)
3.In college, when you miss a class, you don't need a slip from your
parents saying you were skipp-... uh, sick that day.
2.In high school you can't go off campus for lunch because it is not
allowed. In college you can't go off campus for lunch because you
can't afford it.
1.In high school, people that were on drugs, drank, were zoned-out,
had untidy clothes or hair were called dorks. In college they're
called 'cool'.

Dispelling Sexual Myths
A man walks onto an airplane and takes his seat. He looks
up and noticesthe most beautiful woman he has ever seen
boarding the plane.
He is very nervous, and soon realizes that she is walking
down theaisle toward him.When she takes the seat right
next to him, he is anxious to begin aconversation. He asks,
"Where are you flying to today?" She responds, "To the
annual Nymphomaniac Convention in Chicago."
He is CRAZED with excitement! Here is a gorgeous
woman sitting nextto him, and she's going to a meeting of
nymphomaniacs!"And what do you do at this meeting?"
he asks."Well," she says, "we try to dissolve some of the
popular myths aboutsexuality."
"And what myths are those?" he continues desperately.
She explains, "Well, one popular myth is that African
American men arethe most endowed, when in fact, it is the
Native American man who ownsthis trait. Also, it is widely
believed that the Frenchman is the bestlover, when
actually it is men of Jewish descent who make the best
lovers."
"Very interesting..." the man responds.
Suddenly, the woman becomes very embarrassed and
blushes. "I'm sorry,"she says, "I just feel so awkward
discussing this with you when I don't even know you!
What is your name?"
The man extends his hand and replies, "Tonto. Tonto
Goldstein."
Getting married is very much like going to a continental restaurant with friends.
You order what you want, then when you see what the other fellow has, you
wish you had ordered that.
At the cocktail party, one woman said to another,
"Aren't you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?"
The other replied, "Yes I am, I married the wrong man."
Man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is really finished. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his bachelor's degree and the woman gets her master's.
A little boy asked his father, "Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?"
And the father replied, "I don't know, son, I'm still paying for it."
Young Son: Is it true, Dad, I heard that in some parts of Africa a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her? Dad: That happens in most countries, son.
Then there was a man who said, "I never knew what real happiness was until I got married; and then it was too late.
A happy marriage is a matter of give and take; the husband gives and the wife takes. When a newly married man looks happy we know why. But when a ten-year married man looks happy - we wonder why.
Married life is very frustrating. In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the neighbor listen.
After a quarrel, a wife said to her husband, "You know, I was a fool when I married you." And the husband replied, "Yes, dear, but I was in love and didn't notice it."
It doesn't matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss.
A man inserted an 'ad' in the classifieds: "Wife wanted." Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine."
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing, either the car is new or the wife. A perfect wife is one who helps the husband with the dishes.
A woman was telling her friend, "It is I who made my husband a millionaire."
"And what was he before you married him." Asked the friend.
The woman replied, " A multi-millionaire."
Marriage is a three ring circus. The wedding ring,
the engagement ring, and suffering.
Why is a wedding dress always white?
So the dishwasher goes with the stove and the
refrigerator.
The next time you have a bad day at work or on the golf course...think of this guy. Rob is a commercial saturation diver for Global Divers in Louisiana. He performs underwater repairs on offshore drilling rigs. Below is an e-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to Laughline, who was sponsoring a "worst job experience" contest. Needless to say, she won.
"Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother... Last week I had bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would share my experience with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all.
"Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job. As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wetsuit. This time of year, the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a diesel powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of shit sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful temperature. It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose, which is taped to the air hose.
"Now this sounds like a damn good plan, and I've used it several times with no complaints. What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is I take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi.
"Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my ass started to itch. So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few seconds my ass started to burn. I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done. In agony, I realized what had happened. The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit. Now since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't stick to it. However, the crack of my ass was not as fortunate. When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into my ass.
"I informed the dive supervisor of my problem over the communicator. His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with 5 other divers, were all laughing hysterically. Needless to say I aborted the dive. I was instructed to make 3 agonizing in-water decompression stops totaling 35 minutes before I could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry decompression.
"When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass helmet. As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my ass as soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't shit for 2 days because my asshole was swollen shut."
So, next time you're having a bad day at work, or on the golf course, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your ass.
Does God Still Speak To Men?
A young man had been to Wednesday night Bible Study. The
Pastor had shared about listening to God and obeying the Lord's
voice. The young man couldn't help but wonder,"Does God still
speak to people?"
After service, he went out with some friends for coffee and pie
and they discussed the message. Several different ones talked
about how God had led them in different ways. It was about ten
o'clock when the young man started driving home. Sitting in his
car, he just began to pray, "God.. If you still speak to people
speak to me. I will listen. I will do my best to obey."
As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the
strangest thought..."Stop and buy a gallon of milk." He shook
his head and said out loud, "God, is that you?"
He didn't get a reply and started on toward home.
But, again the thought, "Buy a gallon of milk." The young man
thought about Samuel and how he didn't recognize the voice of
God, and how little Samuel ran to Eli. "Okay, God, in case that
is you, I will buy the milk."
It didn't seem like too hard a test of obedience. He could always
use the milk.
He stopped and purchased the gallon of milk and started off
toward home. As he passed Seventh street, he again felt the urge,
"Turn down that street."
This is crazy he thought and drove on pass the intersection.
Again, he felt that he should turn down seventh street. At the
next intersection, he turned back and headed down Seventh. Half
jokingly, he said out loud,
"Okay, God, I will." He drove several blocks, when suddenly,
he felt like he should stop.
He pulled over to the curb and looked around. He was in a semi-
commercial area of town. It wasn't the best but it wasn't the
worst of neighborhoods either. The businesses were closed and
most of the houses looked dark like the people were already in
bed. Again, he sensed something, "Go and give the milk to the
people in the house across the street."
The young man looked at the house. It was dark and it looked
like the people were either gone or they were already asleep. He
started to open the door and then sat back in the car seat. "Lord,
this is insane. Those people are asleep and if I wake them up,
they are going to be mad and I will look stupid." Again, he felt
like he should go and give the milk.
Finally, he opened the door, "Okay God, if this is you, I will go
to the door and I will give them the milk. If you want me to look
like a crazy person, okay. I want to be obedient. I guess that
will count for something but if they don't answer right away, I
am out of here."
He walked across the street and rang the bell. He could hear
some noise inside. A man's voice yelled out, "Who is it? What
do you want?" Then the door opened before the young man
could get away.
The man was standing there in his jeans and t-shirt. He looked
like he just got out of bed. He had a strange look on his face and
he didn't seem to happy to have some stranger standing on his
doorstep. "What is it?"
The young man thrust out the gallon of milk, "Here, I brought
this to you." The man took the milk and rushed down a hall way
speaking loudly in Spanish. Then, from down the hall, came a
woman carrying the milk toward the kitchen. The man was
following her holding a baby. The baby was crying.
The man had tears streaming down his face. The man began
speaking and half crying, "We were just praying. We had some
big bills this month and we ran out of money. We didn't have
any milk for our baby. I was just praying and asking God to
show me how to get some milk."
His wife in the kitchen yelled out, "I ask him to send an Angel
with some... Are you an Angel?" The young man reached into
his wallet and pulled out all the money he had on him and put in
the man's hand. He turned and walked back toward his car and
the tears were streaming down his face.
He knew that God still answers prayers and that God still speaks
to His people. Do Ya ?

If you love Jesus, send this to ten people and the person that sent
it to you!!!!!!!!
DOG HAIKU
I love my master;
Thus I perfume myself with
This long-rotten squirrel.
I lie belly-up
In the sunshine, happier than
You ever will be
Today I sniffed
Many dog behinds-I celebrate
By kissing your face.
I sound the alarm!
Paper boy-come to kill us all
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I sound the alarm!
Garbage man-come to kill us all
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I lift my leg and
Whiz on each bush. Hello, Spot--
Sniff this and weep!
How do I love thee?
The ways are numberless as
My hairs on the rug.
My human is home!
I am so ecstatic I have
Made a puddle
I Hate my choke chain
Look, world, they strangle me! Ack
Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack!
Sleeping here, my chin
On your foot -- no greater bliss -- well,
Maybe catching rats
Look in my eyes and
Deny it. No human could
Love you as much I do
The cat is not all
Bad -- she fills the litter box
With Tootsie Rolls
Dig under fence -- why?
Because it's there. Because it's
There. Because it's there.
I am your best friend,
Now, always, and especially
When you are eating.
You are my stamp pad
The mud I rolled in makes nice
Patterns on white shirts.
Squirrels, birds, and cats
Run everywhere, taunting me
I must chase them all.
It is morning now
I lick your sleeping face
Wake up - play with me!
I see my owner
Thus I must take wing and fly
Is my name "Down, girl!"?

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.
He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.
A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.
As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!
Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.
Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.
2. Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you have.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less
NOW --------
Enough of that crap . .
The donkey later came back and bit the shit out of the farmer who had tried to bury him. The gash from the bite got infected, and the farmer eventually died in agony from septic shock.
MORAL FROM TODAY'S LESSON:
When you do something wrong and try to cover your ass, it always comes back to bite you.
you have two choices...smile and close this page or pass this along to someone else to spread the fun.
I know what I did!!
The inventor of dormitories . . . let's find him, make him pay for the
travesties he's visited on America's youth, and force him to listen to
Matchbox 20. Can't you see him designing these hellish stacks of humanity
many years ago? From the sidewalk he raised his hands triumphantly and said,
"It shall be like the projects with less violence and more marijuana!" He
then took lumber and Elmer's Paste, as it is often called, to create these
pet-carrier-sized rooms that we live in. You wanna know why people from the
projects hardly ever go to college? It's because they don't want to leave
their lush surroundings.
The actual term dormitory is of course derived from the Latin term for
sleep, which is appropriate because that is all you have space to do. You
have to do it standing up in the bathroom sink but it can be done. The
luckier students have space to scratch their asses but the windows have to
be open and their roommates have to be gone for the weekend. When you go
home the closets even feel like a gymnasium, and you can romp around in the
bathroom like a horny antelope. I can't imagine the kids who brought
everything they own to the dorm. I brought like a condom and a sock.
Next semester I hope to have a towel and the other sock. I also need a new
condom.
Forget having space to sleep. Who sleeps anyway? Nobody on my campus. I
think it's a rule. This one kid tried but no one knows what happened to him.
Let's just say his floor mates never saw him awake again. I feel like I'm a
member of the national insomnia coalition. Our agenda involves a lot of
Frappacino and staring at the test pattern on TV. It's like this strange
pseudo-vampire lifestyle. Did you know that if you stay up late enough they
play the Tonight Show over again and it still isn't funny?
No sleep really fucks with your eating habits too. Every night at 2 in
the morning you get as hungry as a Bosnian and you have to go to the vending
machine to watch the one bagel spin in the carousel of salmonella. People
have White Zombie playing until 5 AM, which to me really encompasses my mood
at 5 AM. I could be listening to Kenny G and it would seem hard-core at 5 in
the morning. It doesn't matter because you still can't get an open clothes
dryer minutes before sunrise. There's like this one chick who's always tying
up an entire dryer with like one pair of panties. I let it slide because it
gives me an opportunity to watch hypnotically tumbling panties. The worst is
when she turns out to be morbidly obese and you have to vomit in your laundry
basket. Not that the dryers work anyway. I could fart on my laundry and get
it drier than the converted toaster ovens that the university supplies. Dry
jeans? Forget about it. I had to convert mine to a deep-sea wet suit.
So what if you want to leave the dorm? Get ready for a chore. You'll
need keys, ID, bag, books, a map, an umbrella, sun glasses, insulin, a snake
bite kit, mace, a pack mule, and an Algonquin Indian translator (Miami
students---you know what that's all about). Then you have to go walking
through the building kissing the asses of all the dweebs you live with and
holding the door for anyone in the same county. What's with the door-holding
policy? Like opening a door requires a spotter. If you've got arms, a
coordinated foot, or useful nub, open your own Goddamn door. No matter
where you go you have to use these gerbil-on-a-wheel elevators. I could
climb up the side of the building with a corpse tied to my johnson in less
time than it takes for the door to close. Then you have to fucking march for
miles from your dorm which is conveniently placed on fucking opposite side
of the campus from any building that is fucking remotely important. People
on roller blades I accept, people on bikes I have urges to clothesline but
tolerate, but people on skateboards have a value just below medically
retarded Nazis. It must be explained to them that skateboards were cool when
we were 11 and even then they weren't that cool.
Where are you headed? Probably to get something to eat at the dining
hall. The only dish they haven't fucked up is
Lucky Charms. I think the university supplies them with a blender and
unlimited horse meat mixed with some retired circus animals. The key to
making the menu fresh and exciting is the food coloring. The charming and
buck-toothed lunch ladies proudly announce, "Yesterday we had chicken nuggets
and today we present to you blue chicken chunks that are totally unrelated to
the nugget dish we served you just yesterday. We are serious, they have
nothing to do with each other. I stake my hair net on it. You can have extra
blue in yours.." And the ladies (who really seem to love livin' in the
exciting scooping career) refuse to serve more than what fits on a toothpick.
You can't just ask for a large portion, you have to ask for "more than the
offensive line could consume this semester." Then you get a second blue
nugget. Remember how excited the potato bar got you the first week? Now the
potato bar makes you homicidal.
(What are bacon flavored bits made of?)
Then you get to come home to your room. Mine is called a suite, which is
a pretty cruel manipulation of the English
language. I get to spend time with the closet case that the boarding office
apparently found compatible with me. He's like Chewbacca's considerably
less attractive estranged midget cousin. A wookie also has better control of
the English language. My roommate is another rant all together. Most people
get one of two kinds of roommates, the one who sharpens knives while he
watches you sleep (mine), and the one who asks you what it's like to go
outside (also mine). My suite mates next door live an intensely Rastafarian
lifestyle. In an attempt to put Cheech and Chong to shame, their bong is a
centerpiece of the room that they clean with wadded textbook pages. They
smoke to Bob Marley at 5 AM on Wednesday nights which is a little too
hardcore but you have to love their dedication to the sport.
End your dorm day by hopping in the shower. It's as big as a tupperware
container. It has 3 temperatures, fucking hot, really fucking hot, and
nuclear. Whenever somebody flushes a toilet on the campus the temperature
goes to skin removal levels and I go blind for a few minutes. I swear it is
connected to every toilet. My brother flushed the toilet at home last week
and I called him to tell him to be a little more considerate. The bathroom
is as clean as any fast food restaurant urinal cake and after the average
college student cleans the shitter with a bottle of Vodka it's as clean as
any bus station. I've given up on cleaning the bathroom and I'm disinfecting
myself. A quick spray down with Lysol Direct and my body is fresh and
repellent to several bacteria.
Bottom line. Turn up the music and try to get high off the fumes coming
from under the bathroom door because they never share. The "best days of
your life" will be over soon.
Kenneth Starr (holding a sign that says "Starr I Are"):
I'm here to ask,
As you'll soon see,
Did you grope
Miss Lewinsky?

Did you flirt?
Did you peek
beneath her skirt?
And did you tell
The girl to lie
When called upon
To testify?
Clinton:

Starr-you-are--
I think that you
Have gone too far!
I will not answer
Any more...

Start a war!

Drunk
At 3 am a desk clerk at a hotel gets a call from a drunk guy asking what time the bar opens. "It opens at noon," answers the clerk.
About an hour later he gets a call from the same guy, sounding even drunker. "What time does the bar open?" he asks.
"Same time as before... Noon." replies the clerk.
Another hour passes and he calls again, plastered "Whatjoo shay the bar opins at?"
The clerk then answers, "It opens at noon, but if you can't wait, I can have room service send something up to you."
"No... I don't wanna git in... Ah wanna git OUT!!!"
THE ELEVATOR JOKE
A business man got on an elevator in a building. When he entered the elevator,
there was a blonde already inside and she greeted him by saying, "T-G-I-F"
(letters only).
He smiled at her and replied, "S-H-I-T" (letters only)."
She looked at him, puzzled, and said, "T-G-I-F" again.
He acknowledged her remark again by answering, "S-H-I-T."
The blond was trying to be friendly, so she smiled her biggest smile and said as
sweetly as possibly "T-G-I-F" another time.
The man smiled back to her and once again replied with a quizzical expression,
"S-H-I-T."
The blond finally decided to explain things, and this time she said, "T-G-I-F,
Thank Goodness It's Friday, get it?"
The man answered, "Sorry, Honey, It's Thursday."
51 DAYS
A bartender is sitting behind the bar on a typical day, when the door bursts open
and in come four exuberant blondes. They come up to the bar, order five bottles
of champagne and ten glasses, take their order over and sit down at a large table.
The corks are popped, the glasses are filled and they begin toasting and
chanting, "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" Soon, three more blondes arrive, take up
their drinks and the chanting grows. "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" Two more
blondes show up and soon their voices are joined in raising the roof. "51 days,
51 days, 51 days!" Finally, the tenth blonde comes in with a picture under her
arm. She walks over to the table, sets the picture in the middle and the table
erupts. Up jumps the others, they begin dancing around the table, exchanging
high-fives, all the while chanting "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" The bartender
can't contain his curiosity any longer, so he walks over to the table. There in the
center is a beautifully framed child's puzzle of the Cookie Monster. When the
frenzy dies down a little bit, the bartender asks one of the blondes, "What's all
the chanting and celebration about?"
The blonde who brought in the picture pipes in, "Everyone thinks that blondes
are dumb and they make fun of us. So, we decided to set the record straight. Ten
of us got together, bought that puzzle and put it together. . .the side of the box
said 2-4 years, but we put it together in 51 days!"
THE FISHING JOKE
Three blondes are sitting by the side of a river holding fishing poles with the
lines in the water. A Game Warden comes up behind them, taps them on the
shoulder and says, "Excuse me, ladies, I'd like to see your fishing licenses."
"We don't have any." replied the first blonde.
"Well, if your going to fish, you need fishing licenses." said the Game Warden.
"But officer," replied the second blonde, "we aren't fishing. We all have magnets
at the end of our lines and we're collecting debris off the bottom of the river."
The Game Warden lifted up all the lines and, sure enough, there were horseshoe
magnets tied on the end of each line. "Well, I know of no law against it," said
the Game Warden, "take all the debris you want." And with that, the Game
Warden left.
As soon as the Game Warden was out of sight, the three blondes started
laughing hysterically. "What a dumb Fish Cop," the second blonde said to the
other two, "doesn't he know that there are steelhead in this river?!"
HARESPRAY
A man was driving along the highway and saw a rabbit hopping across the
middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the rabbit, but unfortunately the
rabbit jumpted in front of the car and was hit. The driver, being a sensitive man
as well as an animal lover, pulled over to the side of the road and got out to see
what had become of the rabbit.
Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead. The driver felt so awful that he began
to cry. A blonde woman driving down the highway saw the man crying on the
side of the road and pulled over. She stepped out of her car and asked the man
what was wrong.
"I feel terrible," he explained. "I accidentally hit this rabbit and killed it."
The blonde told the man not to worry. She knew what to do. She went to her car
trunk and pulled out a spray can. She walked over to the limp, dead rabbit, and
sprayed the contents of the can onto the rabbit. Miraculously, the rabbit came to
life, jumped up, waved its paw at the two humans and hopped down the road.
Fifty feet away the rabbit stopped, turned around, waved at the two again,
hopped down the road another 50 feet, turned, waved, and hopped another 50
feet. The man was astonished. He couldn't figure out what substance could be in
the woman's spray can! He ran over to the woman and demanded,
"What was in your spray can? What did you spray onto that rabbit?" The woman
turned the can around so that the man could read the label. It said:
"Hair Spray - Restores Life to Dead Hair. Adds Permanent Wave."

Thoughts of Roasting on an Open Fire
An Illinois man left the streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida.
His wife, on a business trip and was planning to meet him the next day.
When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.
Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail
address, he did his best to type it in from memory.
Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed
instead to an elderly preacher's wife,
whose husband had passed away only the day before.
When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the
monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor dead.
At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note
on the screen:
Dearest Wife,
Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival
tomorrow. Your Loving Husband.
P.S: Sure is hot down here.
One day God was looking down on earth and saw all of the evil that was
going on. He decided to send an angel down to earth to check it out. So,
he called on a female angel and sent her to earth for a time. When she
returned she told God; yes it is bad on earth, 95% of the people are bad
and 5% are good.
He thought for a moment and said maybe I had better send down a male
Angel to get both points of view. So, He called a male angel and sent him
to earth to see what he could find. When the angel returned, he went to
God and told him, yes, the earth was in decline, 95% of the people are bad
and 5% are good.
God said, "This is not good!" So he decided to send an e-mail to the 5%
that were good and encourage and strengthen them. Something that would
help them keep the faith and keep going.
Do you know what that e-mail said? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Oh, you didn't get one either??????????

Preacher & Peanuts
One day a preacher goes to visit an elderly lady.
As he is sitting there talking with her, he
notices a bowl of peanuts sitting on the table in
front of him.
'Do you mind if I have a few peanuts?' he asks
the lady.
'Help yourself,' she replies.
After about an hour and a half visit, he gets up
to leave and notices that he has eated almost all
of the peanuts in the bowl.
'I apologize,' he says to the elderly lady. 'I
only meant to eat a few.'
'That's okay,' says the lady, 'Since I've lost my
teeth, all I've been able to do is suck the
chocolate off of them.'

Dumb Faith
A guy's in his house when horrendous rains come
up. The water starts rising, and before you know
it, we're talking major flood. Roads are covered.
Nothing's moving. Pretty soon, a boat comes along.
Guy in the boat yells, 'Come on - we're here to
save you. Get in the boat.'
Guy in the house says, 'No...I've got faith that
God will save me.'
The boat leaves. The water keeps rising. The guy
is forced up the second floor of his house by the
flood waters. Another boat comes along. The guy in
the boat yells, 'Come on! It's getting worse. If
you don't get in the boat, you're going to drown.'
From the second floor window the guy says,
'No...I'll be ok. I've got faith in God that he'll
save me.'
The boat leaves. Water's rising. The
guy's on the roof. A helicopter hovers overhead
and the pilot shouts out, 'This is your last
chance. Climb up the ladder. If you don't come
now you're going to drown.'
The guy says from the roof, 'No, thanks. God will
save me.'
The pilot shrugs his shoulders and splits. The
water rises. The guy drowns. Ascends to the pearly
gates. He asks St. Peter, 'What happened? I've
been devoted to God and had absolute faith that he
would save me. Why did he let me down?'
And St. Peter tells him, 'What the heck do you
want? God sent ya two boats and a helicopter!?'

A cop pulls a man over. The driver asks the cop why you pull me over.
"because you were speeding!"
"no I wasnt"
"yes you were"
"no i wasnt"
etc. etc. etc. back and forth. Finally the cop is really pissed and asks
the mans wife, "o.k. Ma'me you settle this, was your husband speeding or
not?
"Officer I have been married to this man for 30 years and the one
thing Ive learned is never to argue with him when hes drunk!""
-----------------------------------
A young man goes into a drug store to buy condoms. The pharmacist says
the condoms come in packs of 3, 9 or 12 and asks which the young man
wants.
"Well," he said, "I've been seeing this girl for a while and she's
really hot. I want the condoms because I think tonight's "the" night.
We're having dinner with her parents, and then we're going out. And I've
got a feeling I'm gonna get lucky after that. Once she's had me, she'll
want me all the time, so you'd better give me the 12 pack." The young
man makes his purchase and leaves.
Later that evening, he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and her
parents. He asks if he might give the blessing, and they agree. He
begins the prayer, but continues praying for several minutes. The girl
leans over and says, "You never told me that you were such a religious
person."
He leans over to her and says, "You never told me that your father is a
pharmacist."

It was George the Mailman's last day on the job after 35 years of
carrying the mail through all kinds of weather to the same neighborhood.
When he arrived at the first house on his route he was greeted by the
whole family there, who roundly and soundly congratulated him and sent
him on his way with a tidy gift envelope. At the second house they
presented him with a box of fine cigars. The folks at the third house
handed him a selection of terrific fishing lures.
At the fourth house George was met at the door by a strikingly beautiful
woman in a revealing negligee. She took him by the hand, gently led him
through the door (which she closed behind him), and led him up the
stairs to the bedroom where she blew his mind with the most passionate
love he had ever experienced.
When he had had enough they went downstairs, where she fixed him a giant
breakfast: eggs, potatoes, ham, sausage, blueberry waffles, and
fresh-squeezed orange juice.
When he was truly satisfied she poured him a cup of steaming coffee. As
she was pouring, he noticed a dollar bill sticking out from under the
cup's bottom edge. "All this was just too wonderful for words," he said,
"but what's the dollar for?" "Well," she said, "last night, I told my
husband that today would be your last day, and that we should do
something special for you. I asked him what to give you.
He said, "Fuck him. Give him a dollar." The breakfast was my idea.

The was a man who was exploring parts of Tibet when he came upon a ship
with all sorts af strange antiques. He found a strange statue of a
bronze mouse that he had to have. The old storekeeper told him "$10,000
for the mouse and $10,000 for the story behind it."
The man told him that he would just take the mouse. As he left out of
the shop, he noticed several mice following him. He nervously picked up
his pace and started to walk faster. Each block he walked more and more
mice came out of the woodwork to follow him. By the time he started to
run there were thousands of mice running after him. He came to the river
and heaved the bronze mouse into the river - all the mice that were
following him also jumped into the river.
When the man returned to the shop where he bought the bronze mouse, the
storekeeper said "Ahh, so I see you have some to hear the story after
all."
The man replied, "Actually, I came to see if you have a bronze lawyer"

6 reasons computers must be female
1) No one but their Creator understands their internal logic.
2) As soon as you have one, a better one is just around the corner.
3) Even your smallest mistakes are immediately committed to memory for
future reference.
4) The native language used to communicate with other computers is
incomprehensible to every one else.
5) The message, "bad command or file name", is about as informative as
"If you don't know why I'm mad at you, then I'm certainly not going to
tell you"
6) As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending
half your paycheck on accessories for it.

Spare Parts
Seems God was just about done creating the universe, had a couple of
left-over things left in his bag of creations, so he stopped by to visit
Adam and Eve in the Garden. He told the couple that one of the things he
had to give away was the ability to stand up and pee. "It's a very handy
thing," God told the couple who he found hanging around under an apple
tree. "I was wondering if either one of you wanted that ability."
Adam popped a cork. Jumped up and begged, "Oh, give that to me! I'd love
to be able to do that! It seems the sort of thing a Man should do. Oh
please, oh please, oh please, let me have that ability. I'd be so great!
When I'm working in the garden or naming the animals, I could just let
it rip, I'd be so cool. Oh please God let it be me who you give that
gift to, let me stand and pee, oh please..."
On and on he went like an excited little boy (who had to pee). Eve just
smiled and shook her head at the display. She told God that if Adam
really wanted it so badly, and it sure seemed to be the sort of thing
that would make him happy, she really wouldn't mind if Adam were the one
given the ability to stand up and pee. And so it was. And it was...well,
good.
"Fine," God said, looking back into his bag of left-over gifts.
"What's left here? Oh yes, multiple orgasms..."
Election Logic Applied to Baseball
NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Mets announced today that they are
going to court to get an additional inning added to the end of
game 5 of the World Series.
The batting, pitching, and bench coaches for the Mets held a press
conference earlier today. They were joined by members of the
Major League Players Union. "We meant to hit those pitches from
the Yankee pitchers," said the Mets batting coach. "We were
confused by the irregularities of the pitches we received and
believe we have been denied our right to hit."
One claim specifically noted that a small percentage of the Mets
batters had intended to swing at fast balls, but actually swung at
curve balls. It was clear that these batters never intended to
swing at curve balls, though a much higher percentage were not
confused by the pitches.
Reporters at the press conference pointed out that the Mets had
extensively reviewed film of the Yankees pitchers prior to the
World Series and had in fact faced the Yankees in inter-league
play earlier in the year. "The fact remains that some of the
pitches confused us and denied us of our right to hit," said
the Mets batting coach. "The World Series is not over yet and the
Yankees are celebrating prematurely." Major League Baseball has
reviewed the telecast of all the World Series games and recounted
the balls and strikes called by the umpires of each game. "While
some of the strikes called against the Mets were, in fact, balls,
there were not enough of them to change the outcome of the World
Series," the commissioner said.
Another portion of the Mets legal claim stated that, based on on-
base percentage, the Mets had actually won the World Series,
regardless of the final scores of the games. "It's clear that we
were slightly on-base more often than the Yankees," said a Mets
spokesman. "The World Series crown is rightly ours." The manager
of the Mets has remained in relative seclusion, engaging in some
light jogging for exercise. He has stated that he believes
"we need to let the process run its course without a rush to
conclusion."
KU-UCLA Game Disputed - Recount of Score Demanded
(AP) - New York
Steve Lavin and the UCLA Bruins are demanding a recount of the game
in which Kansas won 99 to 98. "The baskets were confusing," says
Lavin. "I'm sure that some of the balls that went in Kansas' basket were
meant to go into ours. Kansas teams would never have scored nearly one-
hundred points. There's no way we lost this one. UCLA demands a recount."
Kansas officials are calling his "outrageous". "They agreed to the
size and shape of the baskets prior to tip-off," replies KU coach Roy
Williams. "If they had a problem with them, they should have said so
before we started.
You don't get to keep playing until you're happy with the outcome.
Someone had to lose. We've scored over one hundred points many times."
UCLA has sent lawyers as well as their athletic director to Madison Square
Garden, where the scoreboard will be tested. Bob Frederick, athletic
director for Kansas, will be there as well to oversee the process. "We are
confident that when the points are re-totaled, we will be the winner of
the game," says Frederick.
Kansas also points out that in many games prior to this one, the same
baskets were used. "They didn't have a problem with the baskets until
they lost," says Williams.
Outside the garden, UCLA student protesters have gathered outside bearing
signs such as, "UCLA wants a fair game!". Students'thoughts echoed their
signs. "All we want is a fair total of the points before we declare a
winner," says student Karen Hays, a Bruin from California. "We need to
proceed cautiously and not rush to judgment before we declare a winner."
ESPN, around 7pm eastern time, had mistakenly declared UCLA the winner,
despite the 16 point lead the Jayhawks held at that point. At about
8:30pm, with the game still to close to call, ESPN had to back off
its prediction.
College Basketball analyst Jay Bilas made the call. "We felt that with a
number of points still not added in by Cummings and Watson, two very good
scorers, we were certain UCLA would carry this game. We may have been
premature in our prediction."

It will recalibrate your refrigerator's coolness setting so all your ice cream goes
melty. It will demagnetize the strips on all your credit cards, screw up the

It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a
rather interesting shade of mauve. End-All will give you Dutch Elm disease. It

IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER - by Erma Bombeck
I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of
pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I
weren't there for the day.
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose
before it melted in storage.
I would have talked less and listened more.
I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet
was stained, or the sofa faded.
I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and
worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to
light a fire in the fireplace.
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble
about his youth.
I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my
husband.
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a
summer day because my hair had just been teased and
sprayed.
I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried
about grass stains.
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television-
and more while watching life.
I would never have bought anything just because it was
practical, wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a
lifetime.
Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have
cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment
growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in
a miracle.
When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have
said, "Later. Now go get washed up for dinner."
There would have been more "I love you's".. more "I'm
sorry's"....but mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize
every minute...look at it and really see it .. live it...and never
give it back.
Stop sweating the small stuff. Don't worry about who doesn't
like you, who has more, or who's doing what. Instead, let's
cherish the relationships we have with those who Do love us.
Let's think about what God HAS blessed us with. And what we are
doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally,
as well as spiritually.
Life is too short to let it pass you by.
We only have one shot at this and then it's gone.
I hope you all have a blessed day.

EuroEnglish
The European Union commissioners have announced
that agreement has been reached to adopt English
as the preferred language for European
communications, rather than German, which was the
other possibility. As part of the negotiations,
Her Majesty's Government conceded that English
spelling had some room for improvement and has
accepted a five-year phased plan for what will be
known as EuroEnglish (Euro for short). In the
first year, 's' will be used instead of the soft
'c'. Sertainly, sivil servants will resieve this
news with joy. Also, the hard 'c' will be
replaced with 'k.' Not only will this klear up
konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less
letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the
sekond year, when the troublesome 'ph' will be
replaced by 'f'. This will make words like
'fotograf' 20 per sent shorter.
In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new
spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where
more komplikated changes are possible. Governments
will enkourage the removal of double letters,
which have always ben a deterent to akurate
speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes
of silent 'e's in the languag is disgrasful, and
they would go.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps
such as replasing 'th' by 'z' and 'W' by 'V'.
During ze fifz year, ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd

It is well documented that for every minute that you exercise, you add one minute to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $5000 per month.
My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she's 97 years old and we don't know where the hell she is.
The only reason I would take up exercising is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to show up.
I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.
I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.
The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.
If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.
And last but not least: I don't exercise because it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.
You could run this over to your friends but why not just e-mail it to them!
The following is a direct quote from the Center for
Strategic and International Studies report on GLOBAL
ORGANIZED CRIME; the author who introduces the story
swears it's true.
FBI agents conducted a raid of a psychiatric hospital
in San Diego that was under investigation for medical
insurance fraud. After hours of reviewing thousands
of medical records, the dozens of agents had worked
up quite an appetite. The agent in charge of the
investigation called a nearby pizza parlor with
delivery service to order a quick dinner for his
colleagues.
The following telephone conversation took place and
was recorded by the FBI because they were taping all
conversations at the hospital.
Agent: Hello. I would like to order 19 large pizzas
and 67 cans of soda.
Pizza Man: And where would you like them delivered?
Agent: We're over at the psychiatric hospital.
Pizza Man: The psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's right. I'm an FBI agent.
Pizza Man: You're an FBI agent?
Agent: That's correct. Just about everybody here is.
Pizza Man: And you're at the psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's correct. And make sure you don't go
through the front doors. We have them locked. You
will have to go around to the back to the service
entrance to deliver the pizzas.
Pizza Man: And you say you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. How soon can you have them here?
Pizza Man: And everyone at the psychiatric hospital
is an FBI agent?
Agent: That's right. We've been here all day and
we're starving.
Pizza Man: How are you going to pay for all of this?
Agent: I have my checkbook right here.
Pizza Man: And you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. Everyone here is an FBI agent.
Can you remember To bring the pizzas and sodas to the
service entrance in the rear? We Have the front doors
locked.
Pizza Man: I don't think so.

This city fellow had just moved out to the country and decided that he needed some animals, so he decided to walkup and down his road to see what his neighbors had.
The first farm he came across had a bunch of chickens running in the yard. "Say farmer" the man yells, "Would you be willing to sell me one of your chickens?" The farmer replies, "Sure, but around here we don't call 'em chickens, we call 'em pullets".
The man thanks the farmer for the advice and picks up the pullet and continues on down the road until he comes to the next farm where the yard is full of roosters. "Say farmer", yells the man, "Would you be willing to sell me one of your roosters?" "Sure", says the farmer, "but around here we don't call 'em roosters, we call 'em cocks".
The man thanks the farmer and puts the cock under his other arm and continues walking down the road. He soon spots a farm with a herd of donkeys. "I could use one of those", he says . "Hey farmer", he yells "Would you be willing to sell me one of your donkeys?" "Sure", says the farmer "but around here we call them asses".
The man takes the ass and starts leading him away when the farmer yells, "Hey, sonny, that ass is a little persnickety. If he decides to sit down all you have to do to get him up again is scratch him behind his left ear."
Thanking the farmer yet again the man decides to head for home with his animals. On the way the ass decided to sit down. The man was in a bit of trouble, he had his pullet under one arm and his cock under the other. If he put one down it would surely wander off.
Now it just so happened that a nun was just walking over the hill. The farmer, spying her, quickly ran up to her. "Excuse me miss," he said. "Would you hold my cock and pullet while I scratch my ass?"

Farmer Joe decided his injuries from the accident
were serious enough to take the trucking company
(responsible for the accident) to court. In court the
trucking companies fancy lawyer was questioning
farmer Joe. Didn't you say, at the scene of the
accident, "I'm fine," said the lawyer.
Farmer Joe responded, "Well I'll tell you what
happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie
into the......."
"I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer
interrupted, "just answer the question." "Did you not
say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'"
Farmer Joe said, "Well I had just got Bessie into the
trailer and I was driving down the road..."
The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am
trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of
the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on
the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks
after the accident he is trying to sue my client." I
believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply
answer the question."
By this time the Judge was fairly interested in
Farmer Joe's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like
to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule
Bessie."
Joe thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well as I was
saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule,
into the trailer and was driving her down the highway
when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop
sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was
thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the
other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to
move. However, I could hear ole Bessie moaning and
groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by
her groans. Shortly after the accident a Highway
Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie
moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he
looked at her he took out his gun and shot her
between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across the
road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He
said, "Your mule was in such bad shape I had to shoot
her. How are you feeling?"

FORWARD ON TO ALL WOMEN IN NEED OF SOME LAUGHS :)
Written by a Smart Man
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut
right in front of a pickup truck causing him to have to drive on to the
shoulder. This evidently pissed the driver off enough, that he hung
out his window and flipped the woman off.
"Man, that guy is stupid" I thought to myself I ALWAYS smile nicely
and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in
traffic and here's why.
I drive 38 miles each way every day to work. That's 76 miles. Of
these,16 each way is bumper-to-bumper, most of the bumper-to-bumper
is on an 8-lane highway so if you just look at the 7 lanes I am not in,
that means I pass something like a new car every 40 feet per lane.
That's 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982
cars every mile, or 31424 cars. Even though the rest of the 34 miles is
not bumper to bumper I figure I pass at least another 4000 cars.
That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars I pass every
day. Statistically half of these are driven by females, that's 18,000. In
any given group of females 1 in 28 are having the worst day of their
period. That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as
dissatisfying or unrewarding, which would be 449.
According to the National Institutes of Health, 22% of all females
have seriously considered suicide or homicide, that's 98. And 34%
describe men as their biggest problem, that's 33.
According to the National Rifle Association 5% of all females carry
weapons and this number is increasing. That means that EVERY SINGLE
DAY, I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life,
thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or
homicide, is having the worst day of her period and is armed. No matter
what she does in traffic, I wouldn't DREAM of flipping her off.

A Supposed True Finals Story
This past fall semester, at Duke University, there were two
sophomores who were taking Organic Chemistry and who did
pretty well on all of the quizzes and the midterms and labs, etc.,
such that going into the final they had a solid 'A'. These two
friends were so confident going into the final that the weekend
before finals week, even though the Chem final was on Monday,
they decided to go up to University of Virginia and party with
some friends up there.
So they did this and had a great time. However, with their
hangovers and everything, they overslept all day Sunday and
didn't make it back to Duke until early Monday morning. Rather
than taking the final then, what they did was to find Professor
Aldric after the final and explain to him why they missed the
final. They told him that they went up to UVA for the weekend,
and had planned to come back in time to study, but that they had
a flat tire on the way back and didn't have a spare and couldn't
get help for a long time and so were late getting back to campus.
Aldric thought this over and then agreed that they could make up
the final on the following day. The two guys were elated and
relieved. So, they studied that night and went in the next day at
the time that Aldric had told them. He placed them in separate
rooms and handed each of them a test booklet and told them to
begin. They looked at the first problem, which was something
simple about free radical formation and was worth 5 points.
"Cool," they thought, "this is going to be easy." They did that
problem and then turned the page.
They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on the next
page. It said:
(95 points) Which tire?
A fireman is at the station house working outside on the fire truck when
he notices a little girl next door.
The little girl is in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the
side. She is wearing a fireman's hat and has the wagon tied to a dog.
The fireman says, "Hey little girl. What are you doing?"
The little girl says, "I'm pretending to be a fireman and this is my fire
truck!"
The fireman walks over to take a closer look. "Little girl that sure is a
nice fire truck!" the fireman says.
"Thanks mister," says the little girl.
The fireman looks a little closer and notices the little girl has tied the
wagon to the dog's testicles. "Little girl," says the fireman, "I don't
want to tell you how to run your fire truck, but if you were to tie that
rope around the dog's neck I think you could go faster."
The little girl says, "You're probably right mister, but then I wouldn't
have a siren!"
One year, Johnny's family was having the "extended family" 4th of July cookout
at their home. One of the special treats that year was the lighting of the
fireworks (Roman candles, bottle rockets, missile batteries, etc.) they had bought
out of state. (because they are illegal in their state, of course!)Just before they
were to arrive, a cousin calls, saying their neighbor's plans had just fallen
through, and could they bring them along to the picnic - they even had extra
food to bring. "Sure, the more the merrier!"
Upon arrival and meeting of their cousin's neighbor, it is discovered that he's a
police officer. The father turns as innocently as he can to Johnny, and whispers
to him to grab the paper bag of fireworks sitting in the kitchen and hide them
somewhere quickly. Johnny disappears, and the father changes the topic to food
for the day. The family had brought some chicken to grill, so the father tells then
the gas grill is all set to use out back - just turn on the gas and push the ignition
button with the lid still closed.
They head out the back, as Johnny comes back in through the front door. The
father hurries to him and says "Whew, that was close! That man's a police
officer, and he almost saw the fireworks. Did you hide them real well?"
"Oh, yes, nobody will ever think to look in the grill!"
A boy was taking care of his baby sister while his parents went to town
shopping. He decided to go fishing and he had to take her along.
"I'll never do that again!" he told his mother that evening. "I didn't
catch a thing!"
"Oh, next time I'm sure she'll be quiet and not scare the fish away,"
his mother said.
The boy said, "It wasn't that. She ate all the bait."
The new Ensign was assigned to subs, where he'd dreamed of working since
a young boy. He was trying to impress the Master Chief with his expertise
learned in Submarine School.
The Master Chief cut him off quickly and said, "Listen, 'sir', it's real
simple. Add the number of times we dive to the number of times we
surface. Divide that number by two. If the result doesn't come out even, don't
open the hatch."

Six months after the waiter died, his widow went to see a
medium, who promised she would contact the dead man.
During the seance, the widow was sure she saw her husband
standing in the corner, dressed in his waiter's outfit.
"Arnold!" she cried. "Come closer and speak to me!"
A hoarse voice from the corner wailed, "I can't. It's not my
table."

Grandpa and Grandma were sitting in their porch rockers watching the
Beautiful sunset and reminiscing about "the good days," when Grandma turned to
Grandpa and said, "Honey, do you remember when we first started dating and you
used to just casually reach over and take my hand?"
Grandpa looked over at her, smiled and took her aged hand in his. With a
Wry little smile Grandma pressed a little farther, "Honey, do you remember
How after we were engaged you'd sometimes lean over and suddenly kiss me on
The cheek?"
Grandpa leaned slowly toward Grandma and gave her a lingering kiss on
Her wrinkled cheek.
Growing bolder still, Grandma said, "Honey, do you remember how, after
we were first married, you'd kind of nibble on my ear?"
Grandpa slowly got up from his rocker and headed into the house.
Alarmed, Grandma said, "Honey, where are you going?"
Grandpa replied, "To get my teeth!"

Nobody ever died of seasickness."
"You've just taken away my last hope for relief," Tom said.

A young man was walking through a supermarket to pick a few things when
He noticed an old lady following him around. Thinking nothing of it, he
Ignored her and continued on. Finally he went to the checkout line, but she got
In front of him.
"Pardon me," she said, "I'm sorry if my staring at you has made you feel
uncomfortable. It's just that you look just like my son, who just died
recently."
"I'm very sorry," replied the young man, "is there anything I can do for
you?"
"Yes," she said, "As I'm leaving, can you say 'Good bye, Mother!' ? It
would make me feel so much better."
"Sure," answered the young man. As the old woman was leaving, he called
out, "Goodbye, Mother!" As he stepped up to the checkout counter, he saw that
his total was $127.50. "How can that be?" he asked, "I only purchased a few
things!"
"Your mother said that you would pay for her," said the clerk.
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower,when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of arguing over who should answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says: "I'll give you $500 to drop that towel that you have on." After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her $500 and leaves.
Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets back to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower: "Who was that?"
"It was Bob, our next door neighbor," she replies.
"Great," the husband says; "did he say anything about the $500 he owes me?"

If you think you're having a bad day...
Fire Authorities in California found a corpse in a burnt out section of
forest whilst assessing the damage done by a forest fire. The deceased
male was dressed in a full wetsuit, complete with a dive tank, flippers
and face mask.
A post-mortem examination revealed that the person died not from burns,
but from massive internal injuries. Dental records provided a positive
identification. Investigators then set about determining how a fully clad
diver ended up in the middle of a forest fire. It was revealed that, on
the day of the fire, the person went for a diving trip off the coast --
some 20 MILES away from the forest.
The firefighters, seeking to control the fire as quickly as possible,
called in a fleet of helicopters with very large buckets. The buckets were
dropped into the ocean for rapid filling, then flown to the forest fire
and emptied. You guessed it! One minute our diver was making like Flipper
in the Pacific, the next he was doing a breaststroke in a fire bucket
300m in the air. Apparently, he extinguished exactly 1.78m (5'10") of the
fire.
Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed!!

A man decided to have a face lift for his birthday. He spends
$5,000 and feels really good about the result.
The next morning, he stops at a newsstand and buys a paper.
Before leaving he says to the sales clerk, "I hope you don't
mind me asking, but how old do you think I am?"
"About 35," was the reply.
"I'm actually 47," the man says happily.
A little while later he goes to McDonalds for lunch and asks
the order taker the same question, to which the reply is, "I'd
guess you're 29?"
"Nope, I am actually 47." He's really feeling good about
himself. While standing at the bus stop, he asks an old woman
the same question.
She replies, "I am 85 years old and my eyesight is going. But
when I was young there was a sure way of telling a man's age.
If I put my hand down your pants for two minutes I will be
able to tell your exact age."
As no one else was around the man agreed and let her slip her
hand down his pants. Two minutes later the old lady says,
"OK, done. You are 47."
Stunned the man says, "Incredible! How did you do that?"
The old lady replies, "I was behind you at McDonalds."
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the
Declaration of Independence? Five signers were captured by the British as
traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked
and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another
had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or
hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their
lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
What kind of men were they?
Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were
farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they
signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty
would be death if they were captured.
Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships
swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties
to pay his debts, and died in rags.
Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his
family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his
family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and
poverty was his reward.
Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer, Walton,
Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.
At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British
General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. He
quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was
destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.
Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his
wife, and she died within a few months.
John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13
children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to
waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home
to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died
from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar
fates.
Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were
not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means
and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing
tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: "For the support of this
declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence,
we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred
honor."
They gave you and me a free and independent America. The history books
never told you a lot of what happened in the Revolutionary War. We didn't
just fight the British. We were British subjects at that time and we
fought our own government! Some of us take these liberties so much for
granted...We shouldn't.
So, take a couple of minutes while enjoying your 4th of July holiday and
silently thank these patriots. It's not much to ask for the price they
paid..............
Two young lovers go up to the mountains for a romantic winter vacation. When they get there, the guy goes out to chop some wood. When he gets back, he says, "Honey, my hands are freezing!"
She says, "Well, put them here between my thighs and that will warm them up."
After lunch he goes back out to chop some more wood and comes back and says again, "Man! my hands are really freezing!"
She says again, "Well, put them here between my thighs and warm them up." He does, and again that warms him up.
After dinner, he goes out one more time to chop some wood to get them through the night. When he returns, he says again, "Honey, my hands are really, really freezing!"
She looks at him and says, "For crying out loud, don't your ears ever get cold?"

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from
her nameplate that the teller's name is Patricia Whack. So he says,
"Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a long
vacation."
Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks how much he wants to
borrow. The frog says $30,000.00. The teller asks his name and the
frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger,
and that it's OK, he knows the bank manager.
Patti explains that $30,000.00 is a substantial amount of money and
that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan. She asks
if he has anything he can use as collateral. The frog says, "Sure, I
have
this," and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch
tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the
manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager
and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims
to know you and wants to borrow $30,000.00. He wants to use this
as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what
the heck is this?"
(Are you ready???)
The bank manager looks back at her and says:
"It's a knick-knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old
man's a Rolling Stone."
Groans accepted.
A man takes the day off work and decides to go out golfing. He is on
the second hole when he notices a frog sitting nexty to the green.
He thinks nothing of it and when he is about to shoot when he hears,
"Ribbit 9 Iron." He looks around and doesn't see anyone. Again, he
hears "Ribbit 9 Iron." He looks at the frog and decides to prove
the frog wrong, puts the club away, and grabs a 9 iron. Boom!
He hits it 10 inches from the cup. He is shocked.
He says to the frog, "Wow that was amazing. You must be a lucky frog,eh?"
The frogs replies, "Ribbit Lucky Frog." The man decides to take the
frog with him to the next hole. "What do you think, frog?,"
the man asks. "Ribbit Three Wood." The guy takes out a 3 wood and,
Boom! Hole in one! The man is befuddled and doesn't know what to
say. By the end of the day, the man golfed the best game of his
life and asks the frog, "OK where to next?" The frog replies,
"Ribbit Las Vegas."
They go to Las Vegas and the guy says, "OK frog, now what?" The
Frog says "Ribbit Roulette." Upon approaching the table, the man asks,
"What should I bet?" The frog replies, "Ribbit $3000, black 6." Now
this is a million-to-one shot to win, but after the golf game, the
man figures what the heck. Boom! Tons of cash come sliding back
across the table. The man takes his winnings and buys the best room
in the hotel. He sits the frog down and says, "Frog, I don't know
how to repay you. You've won me all this money and I am forever
grateful." The frog replies, "Ribbit, Kiss Me."
He figures why not, since after all the frog did for him, he deserved
it. With a kiss, the frog turns into a gorgeous 15-year-old girl. "And
that your honor, is how the girl ended up in my room. So help me God
or my name is not William Jefferson Clinton."
The origination of this letter is unknown, but it brings good luck
to everyone who passes it on. The one who breaks the chain
will have bad luck. Do not keep this. Do not send money. Just
forward it to five of your friends to whom you wish good luck.
You will see that something good happens to you four minutes
from now if the chain is not broken. You wiil receive good
luck in four minutes.
A bit of frog wisdom...
A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell
into a deep pit. All the other frogs gathered around the pit. When they saw
how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead.
The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit with
all of their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop, that they were
as good as dead. Finally, one of the frogs took heed to what the other
frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down and died.
The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the
crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die. He jumped even
harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, "Did
you not hear us?"
The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were
encouraging him the entire time.
This story teaches two lessons. There is power of life and death in the
tongue. An encouraging word to someone who is down can lift them up and
help them make it through the day. A destructive word to someone who is down
can be what it takes to kill them. Be careful of what you say. Speak
life to those who cross your path. The power of words...it is sometimes hard
to understand that an encouraging word can go such a long way. So from this
day forward, think before you speak..

***From the Desk of Martha Stewart***
This perfectly delightful note is being sent (on paper I made yesterday
afternoon) to tell you what I've been up to since I saw you last in Palm
Springs. It snowed last night, so I got up early and made a sled with old
barn wood and a hot glue gun. I hand-painted it in gold-leaf, got out my
loom, and made a blanket in peaches and mauves. Then, to make the sled
complete, I made some reindeer to pull it with some extra reindeer DNA I had
laying around in the refrigerator. By then it was time to make the place mats
and napkins for my 50 guests. I'm serving the old standard twelve-course
Stewart breakfast, but I'll let you in on a little secret, I didn't have time
to make the table and chairs this morning, so I used the ones I had on hand
and antiqued them while doing my 45 minutes on the treadmill. Before I moved
the table and chairs into the dining room, I decided to add a festive touch to
the room. So, I repainted the room in pink and stenciled gold stars on the
ceiling. Then, while my 12-grain bread was rising, I took antique molds and
made the dishes (in exactly the same shade of pink!) to use for breakfast.
These were made from Hungarian clay, which you can get in almost any Hungarian
craft store.
Well, I must run. I need to finish the button holes on the dress I'm wearing
for the breakfast. I'll get out the sled and drive this note to the post
office as soon as the glue dries on the envelopes I'll be making shortly.
Hope my breakfast guests don't stay too long - I have 40,000 cranberries to
string with bay leaves before my speaking engagement at noon. It's a good
thing!
Love, Martha
P.S. When I made the ribbon for this typewriter, I used 1/8 inch goldgauze.
I soaked the gauze in a mixture of white grapes and blackberries, which I
grew, picked and crushed last week in an idle moment
Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language
today is the word "fuck". It is the magical word which, just by its sound can
describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate.
In language, "fuck" falls into many grammatical catagories. It can beused as a
verb both transitive (John fucked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was fucked by
John). It can be an action verb (John really gives a fuck), a passive verb (Mary
really doesn't give a fuck), and adverb (Mary is fucking interested in John), or as
a noun (Mary is a terrific fuck). It can also be used as an interjection (Fuck! I'm
late for my date with Mary). It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy,
fuck she's also stupid). As you can see there are very few words with the overall
versitility of the word "fuck".
Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used To describe
many situations:
1)Greetings................"How the fuck are ya?"
2)Fraud...................."I got fucked by the car dealer."
3)Resignation.............."Oh, fuck it!"
4)Trouble.................."I guess I'm fucked now."
5)Aggression..............."FUCK YOU!"
6)Disgust.................."Fuck me."
7)Confusion................"What the fuck...?"
8)Difficulty..............."I don't understand this fucking shit!"
9)Despair.................."Fucked again..."
10)Pleasure................"I couldn't be any fucking happier!"
11)Displeasure............."Fucking shit man..."
12)Lost...................."Where the fuck are we?"
13)Disbelief..............."UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE!"
14)Retaliation............."Up your fucking ass!"
15)Denial.................."I didn't fucking do it, I swear!"
16)Perplexity.............."I know fuck about it."
17)Apathy.................."Who really gives a fuck anyway?"
18)Suspicion..............."Who the fuck are you?"
19)Panic..................."Let's get the fuck out of here!"
20)Directions.............."Fuck off."
21)Incomprehesion.........."How the fuck did you do that?"
It can be an anatomical description............."He's a fucking asshole."
It can be used to tell time....................."Its five fucking thirty."
It can be used in business.............."How did I wind up with this fucking
job?"
It can be maternal......................"MOTHERFUCKER!"
It can be political....................."Fuck Newt Gingrich!"
Lastly, it has been used by many notable people throughout history:
"What the fuck was that?"
--Mayor of Hiroshima--
"Where did all these fucking Indians come from?"
--General Custer--
"That's not a real fucking gun."
--John Lennon--
"Where the fuck is all this water coming from?"
--Captian of the Titanic--
"Who the fuck's gonna find out?"
--Richard Nixon--
"Heads are going to fucking roll!"
--Anne Boleyn--
"Any fucking idiot could understand that."
--Albert Einstein--
"It does so fucking look like her!"
--Picasso--
"How the fuck did I work that out?"
--Pythagoras--
"You want what on the fucking ceiling?"
--Michaelangelo--
"Fuck a duck."
--Walt Disney--
"What do you mean why...becuase its fucking there!"
--Edmund Hilary--
"Don't fucking light that..."
--Joan of Arc--
"Scattered fucking showers my ass."
--Noah--
"I need this parade like I need a fucking hole in my head."
--John F. Kennedy--
"Houston...we've got a big fucking problem..."
--Crew of Appollo 13--
A crusty old man walks into a bank and says to the teller at the window, "I want to open a fucking checking account."
The astonished woman replies, "I beg your pardon, sir. I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?"
"Listen up, damn it. I said I want to open a fucking checking account now!"
"I'm very sorry sir, but that kind of language is not tolerated in this bank."
"What the hell do you plan to do about it?"
The teller leaves the window and goes over to the bank manager to inform him of her situation. The manager agrees that the teller does not have to listen to foul language.
They both return to the window and the manager asks the old geezer, "Sir, what seems to be the problem here?"
"There is no fucking problem," the man says. "I just won 50 million in the damn lottery and I want to open a fucking checking account in your fucking bank, okay?"
"I see," says the manager, "and this bitch is giving you a hard time?
For all of you that get sick of receiving all the cute,
sappy friendship stuff...read on!
Dear Fucker,
You are my fucking friend,
And I hope you know that's fucking true.
No matter what the fuck happens,
I will stand the fuck by you.
I will fucking be there for you,
Whenever the fuck you need me.
To lend you a fuckin hand,
To do a fuckin good deed.
So just fuckin call on me,
Whenever the fuck you need anything.
Fuck... I will always be there,
Even to the bitter fuckin end.
Forward this promise to all your fuckin friends to show your
fuckin friendship and watch who sends it the fuck back to you...
Fuck it if they don't!
Fun things to do at garage & yard sales:
1. Demand to see something that's not out for sale. When they go to look for it, leave.
2. Ask for a 90% reduction in the marked price.
3. Walk around criticizing the quality, condition, color, size, quantity, price and anything else about the merchandise. Leave saying "I've seen better junk at the landfill!"
4. Spend a lot of time picking up, fondling and walking around with a bunch of stuff. When you get their hopes high enough, put it all back and leave.
5. When not observed, switch or remove the price tags.
6. When you see a sale, go home, round up all the neighborhood kids and dogs, bring them to the sale and let them loose. Stay in the car and watch the fun.
7. When you see a sale, drive ever so slowly by. Go up the block, turn around and drive sloowwllyy by again. Repeat a dozen times.
8. Ask for food and drink.
9. Act like your lost. Ask for directions. Pretend you don't understand. Leave cursing.
10. Pass 2 or 3 hours in inane conversation. Leave without making a purchase.
11. Walk all over in their neighbor's yards. Peek at the sale through the shrubbery. Ring the neighbor's doorbells. Ask "Where's the garage sale?"
12. Pretend like you're going to buy a lot of valuable or fragile items. Make them wrap them very carefully. After this say "I've changed my mind" and leave.
14. Picket the sale with a sign that reads "Garage Sales Unfair to Retail Merchants".
Fun At the Drive-Thru
Stand close to the speaker and yell your order,
using colorful expletives in ways which would embarrass the
patrons inside.
After ordering, cover the speaker and mic with transparent tape.
Watch as customers and order- takers are unable to hear each other
and, thus, each raises his/her volume.
Speak a foreign language (make one up if you have to).
When the manager comes to the mic,
speak English and inquire as to why the order taker
had such difficulty understanding you.
Attempt to take the order-takers order
("Hi, may I take your order?") before they get a chance to take yours.
Order confusing items, i.e.,
"Hi, I'll have a large orange Coke and a small medium fries, please".
In a crowded drive-thru line, place a HUGE order,
then slip out of line and watch the fun as the person behind
you is handed 40 bags of food.
When you arrive at the window to pick up your food,
hand them several bags of garbage & ask if they'll dispose
of it for you. Make sure it smells.
Drive through with a carload of naked people.
Speak in such a garbled fashion that the order-taker
will think there is a problem with the speaker
and ask you to order at the window.
When you arrive at the window,
speak in the same garbled, incomprehensible fashion.
Drive through with someone on the hood to accept the food.
Bring along a Mr. Microphone.
When the order-taker speaks, aim the mic at their speaker
but do so while aiming the Mr. Microphone speaker
at the mic to produce excruciating feedback of their own voice.
Have a friend hide in the trunk.
When you approach the window to pickup your order,
have him start yelling and banging his fists on the trunk.
If you are a male, have a female friend place the order
by speaking VERY seductively and suggestively into the speaker.
When she finishes, have her hide and pull up to accept your order.
See how many of the order-takers fellow employees
have been called over to the window to "check out the babe".
All of the above work very well when done at the late night pick
up window
I like Monkeys. The pet store was selling them for five cents a piece.
I thought this was odd since they were normally a couple thousand. I
decided not to look a gift horse in the mouth so I bought 200 of them.
I like monkeys.
I took my 200 monkeys home. I have a big car. I let one of drive. His
name was Sigmund. He was retarded. In fact, none of them were really
bright. They kept punching themselves in the genitals. I laughed. They
punched me in the genitals. I stopped laughing.
I herded them into my room. They didn't adapt very well to their new
environment. They would screech and hurl themselves off the couch
at high speeds and slam into the wall. Although humorous at first, the
spectacle lost its novelty halfway into it's third hour.
Two hours later I found out why all the monkeys were so inexpensive;
They all died. No apparent reason. They all just sort of dropped
dead. Kindalike when you buy a goldfish and it dies five hours later.
God damn cheap monkeys.
I didn't know what to do. There were 200 dead monkeys lying all over
my room; on the bed, in the dresser, hanging from my bookcase. It
Looked like I had 200 throw rugs. I tried to flush one down the
toilet. It didn't work. It got stuck. Then I had one dead, wet monkey
and one hundred ninety-nine dead, dry monkeys.
I tried to pretend that they were just stuffed animals. That
Worked for awhile, that is until they began to decompose. It started
to smell real bad. I had to pee but there was a dead monkey in my
toilet and I didn't want to call a plumber. I was embarrassed.
I tried to slow down the decomposition by freezing them.Unfortuantely
there was only enough room for two at a time, so I had to change
them every 30 seconds. I also had to eat all the food in the freezer
so it didn't go bad.
I tried to burn them, but little did I know that my bed was flammable.
i had to extinguish the fire.
Then I had one dead, wet monkey in my toilet, two dead, frozen
Monkeys in my freezer, and one hundred ninety-seven dead, charred
monkeys in a pile on my bed, The odor wasn't improving. I became
agitated at my inability to dispose of the dead monkeys and I
really had to use the bathroom. So I went and severely beat
one of the monkeys. I felt better.
I tried throwing them away but the garbage man said the city was not
Allowed to dispose of charred primates. I told him I had a wet one.
He couldn't take it either. I didn't bother asking about the frozen
ones.
I finally arrived at a solution. I gave them out as Christmas gifts.
My friends didn't quite know what to say. They pretended to like them,
but could tell they were lying. Ingrates. So I punched them in the
genitals.
I like monkeys.
This is a chain letter.....now that you have read it, you will have
been hexed with bad luck in everything you do until you forward this
to 10 people you know. After 10 days, you will have permanant bad luck
forever. If you do forward this 10 people in ten days then you will
have good luck in life for the next year.
Scenario 1--Alex McNealy, a student from Yankton SD got this mail and
thought nothing of it. He simply deleted it. Ten days later, his
girlfriend was in a fatal car accident that nearly killed him too. Not
only that, but the blood he received in the transfusion was infected
with HIV.
Scenario 2--Korey Dampenhousse, a graduate student from NYC received
this letter and immediately forwarded to 20 people he knew. the
Next day, he received a promotion at work and got a date with the
secretary he had been eyeing.
So you see, forwarding this would be a good idea. You have been
warned.
Feeling blue or insecure? Losing sight of what's important? Still searching for
the real "you"? In this self-help age of soul-searching, daily affirmations have
been known to do the trick. But you probably shouldn't try these ...
I have the power to channel my imagination into ever-soaring levels of suspicion
and paranoia.
I assume full responsibility for my actions, except the ones that are someone
else's fault.
I no longer need to punish, deceive or compromise myself. Unless, of course, I
want to stay employed.
In some cultures what I do would be considered normal.
Having control over myself is nearly as good as having control over others.
My intuition nearly makes up for my lack of good judgment.
I can change any thought that hurts into a reality that hurts even more.
I honor my personality flaws, for without them I would have no personality at
all.
Joan of Arc heard voices too.
I am grateful that I am not as judgmental as all those censorious, self-righteous
people around me.
I need not suffer in silence while I can still moan, whimper and complain.
When someone hurts me, forgiveness is cheaper than a lawsuit. But not nearly
as gratifying.
All of me is beautiful and valuable, even the ugly, stupid and disgusting parts.
I am at one with my duality.
Only a lack of imagination saves me from immobilizing myself with imaginary
fears.
I honor and express all facets of my being, regardless of state and local laws.
Today I will gladly share my experience and advice, for there are no sweeter
words than "I told you so."
A good scapegoat is nearly as welcome as a solution to the problem.
I am learning that criticism is not nearly as effective as sabotage.
Becoming aware of my character defects leads me to the next step -- blaming
my parents.
I will find humor in my everyday life by looking for people I can laugh at.
A teacher compiled this list of comments from test papers, essays
etc., submitted to science and health teachers by elementary, junior
high, high school, and college students. As she noted, "It's truly
astonishing what weird science our young scholars can create under
the pressure of time and grades".

Scandinavian vacuum manufacturer Electrolux used the following in an
American ad campaign: "Nothing sucks like an Electrolux."
The name Coca-Cola in China was first rendered as Ke-kou-ke-la.
Unfortunately, the Coke company did not discover until after thousands of signs
had been printed that the phrase means "bite the wax tadpole" or "female horse
stuffed with wax" depending on the dialect. Coke then researched 40,000
Chinese characters and found a close phonetic equivalent, "ko-kou-ko-le," which
can be loosely translated as "happiness in the mouth."
In Taiwan, the translation of the Pepsi slogan "Come alive with the Pepsi
Generation" came out as "Pepsi will bring your ancestors back from the dead."
Also in Chinese, the Kentucky Fried Chicken slogan "finger-lickin' good" came
out as "eat your fingers off."
The American slogan for Salem cigarettes, "Salem - Feeling Free," got
translated in the Japanese market into "When smoking Salem, you feel so
refreshed that your mind seems to be free and empty."
When General Motors introduced the Chevy Nova in South America, it was
apparently unaware that "no va" means "it won't go." After the company figured
out why it wasn't selling any cars, it renamed the car in its Spanish markets to
the Caribe.
Ford had a similar problem in Brazil when the Pinto flopped. The company
found out that Pinto was Brazilian slang for "tiny male genitals". Ford pried all
the nameplates off and substituted Corcel, which means horse.
When Parker Pen marketed a ballpoint pen in Mexico, its ads were supposed to
say "It won't leak in your pocket and embarrass you." However, the company's
mistakenly thought the spanish word "embarazar" meant embarrass. Instead the
ads said that "It wont leak in your pocket and make you pregnant."
An American T-shirt maker in Miami printed shirts for the spanish market
which promoted the Pope's visit. Instead of the desired "I Saw the Pope" in
Spanish, the shirts proclaimed "I Saw the Potato."
Chicken-man Frank Perdue's slogan, "It takes a tough man to make a tender
chicken," got terribly mangled in another Spanish translation. A photo of Perdue
with one of his birds appeared on billboards all over Mexico with a caption that
explained "It takes a hard man to make a chicken aroused."
Hunt-Wesson introduced its Big John products in French Canada as Gros Jos
before finding out that the phrase, in slang, means "big breasts." In this case,
however, the name problem did not have a noticeable effect on sales.
Colgate introduced a toothpaste in France called Cue, the name of a notorious
porno mag.
In Italy, a campaign for Schweppes Tonic Water translated the name into
Schweppes Toilet Water.
Japan's second-largest tourist agency was mystified when it entered English-
speaking markets and began receiving requests for unusual sex tours. Upon
finding out why, the owners of Kinki Nippon Tourist Company changed its
name.

Thank God the Rev. Jerry Falwell has stepped in to clean up children's
television. Last week he outed Tinky Winky, from that perverted show the
Tele-Tubbies, because, Falwell pronounced, the character is clearly a
fount of gayness: He's purple, the gay color; he has an antenna shaped
like a triangle, the gay symbol; and he carries a purse, something all
gay people do. But Falwell's work is far from over. You see, kiddy TV is
downright rife with gayety. Heck, Toon Town is like one big circuit party
and has been for years.
Fred Flintstone
Evidence: His nickname on the Bedrock bowling team: "Twinkle toes
Flintstone." The show's theme song ends "...we'll have a gay old time!"
Wears an orange dress with little triangles on it. Hangs out with Barney
far more than Wilma.
Bugs Bunny
Evidence: Often stands with hand on hip. Plays a hairdresser in one
episode. Frequently dresses in drag. Loves to throw on a top hat and
tails and belt out Broadway show tunes with his buddy Daffy- who, it's
worth noting, has a lisp.
Velma (of Scooby Doo)
Evidence: Always tries to sit next to Daphne in the Mystery Machine.
Sports that butch haircut. Has broad shoulders and wears thick
turtleneck sweaters and knee socks. Never once shagged Shaggy.
Popeye
Evidence: Eats lots of salad. Wears a sailor suit, even though he hasn't
been on a ship in years. Does little sailor dances. Dates a flat chested
transvestite named Olive Oyl. Best friend named Wimpy.
Batman and Robin
Evidence: Robin's nickname: Boy Wonder. Batman's real name: Bruce. Both
wear tights. They're in great shape. They like to show each other their
"grappling hooks".
Peppermint Patty
Evidence: Has a deep, gravelly voice. Wears pants, not dresses like the
other Peanuts gals. Plays a mean game of football. Likes to taunt
Charlie Brown. Always hanging out with that androgynous Marcie. Wears
comfortable shoes. Nickname: Sir.
Barney:
Evidence: Purple, talks funny, extremely annoying, sings (well), likes
little boy's, occasionally can be seen carrying a purse, and has never
once popped his female dino friend.. A sure sign that not only was
homosexualism rampant in the dark ages, but scientist have evidence of
it and has leaked the information. Now Falwell is fighting history,
which this disease was surly the cause of Dinosaur extinction( Not that
silly Giant Meteor Theory).
The Pink Panther
'Nuff said
Snagglepuss
Evidence: Another pink cat. Loves theater ("exiiit...stage leeeft").
Wears a bow tie and cuff links, and nothing else.
Genesis Take Two
1. In the beginning GOD created the Bit and the Byte. And from
those he created the Word.
2. And there were two Bytes in the Word; and nothing else existed.
And God separated the One from the Zero; and he saw it was
good.
3. And God said - Let the Data be; And so it happened.
And God said - Let the Data go to their proper places.
And he created floppy disks and hard disks and compact disks.
4. And God said - Let the computers be, so there would be a place
to put floppy disks and hard disks and compact disks.
Thus God created computers and called them hardware.
5. And there was no Software yet. But God created programs; small
and big... And told them - Go and multiply yourselves and fill
all the Memory.
6. And God said -I will create the Programmer; And the Programmer
will make new programs and govern over the computers and
programs and Data.
7. And God created the Programmer; and put him at Data Center;
And God showed the Programmer the Catalog Tree and said
You can use all the volumes and subvolumes but DO NOT USE
Windows.
8. And God said - It is not Good for the programmer to be alone.
He took a bone from the Programmer's body and created a
creature that would look up at the Programmer; and admire
the Programmer; and love the things the Programmer does;
And God called the creature: the User.
9. And the Programmer and the User were left under the naked DOS
and it was Good.
10. But Bill was smarter than all the other creatures of God.
And Bill said to the User - Did God really tell you not to
run any programs ?
11. And the User answered - God told us that we can use every
program and every piece of Data but told us not to run Windows
or we will die.
12. And Bill said to the User - How can you talk about something
you did not even try. The moment you run Windows you will
become equal to God. You will be able to create anything you
like by a simple click of your mouse.
13. And the User saw that the fruits of the Windows were nicer and
easier to use. And the User saw that any knowledge was useless
- since Windows could replace it.
14. So the User installed the Windows on his computer; and said to
the Programmers that it was good.
15. And the Programmer immediately started to look for new drivers.
And God asked him - What are you looking for? And the
Programmer answered - I am looking for new drivers because I
can not find them in the DOS. And God said - Who told you need
drivers? Did you run Windows?
And the Programmer said - It was Bill who told us to !
16. And God said to Bill - Because of what you did you will be hated
by all the creatures. And the User will always be unhappy with you.
And you will always sell Windows.
17. And God said to the User - Because of what you did, the Windows
will disappoint you and eat up all your Resources; and you will
have to use lousy programs; and you will always rely on the
Programmers help.
18. And God said to the Programmer - Because you listened to the
User you will never be happy. All your programs will have errors
and you will have to fix them and fix them to the end of time.
19. And God threw them out of the Data Center and locked the door
and secured it with a password.

Need we say more?
--Please forward as widely as possible; electing
this guy to the presidency would be ludicrous!
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old
is when we're kids?
If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that
you think in fractions. How old are you?. "I'm four and a half!"
You're never 36 and a half. You're four and a half... going on five!
That's the key! You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back.
You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead. How old are you?
"I'm gonna be 16." You could be 13, but hey, you're *gonna* be 16!
And then the greatest day of your life happens... you become 21. Even
the words sound like a ceremony; ~~* YOU BECOME 21 *~~ YYYYYYES!!!
But then you turn 30. Ooohhh what happened there? Makes you sound like
bad milk. "He TURNED, we had to throw him out." There's no fun now,
you're just a sourpuss.
What's wrong?? What changed?? You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're
PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the breaks, it's all slipping away.
Before you know it, you REACH 50... and your dreams are gone. But
wait, you MAKE IT to 60. You didn't think you'd would!!!
So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50, and MAKE IT to 60.
You've build up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that, it's a day
by day thing; you HIT Wednesday. You get into your 80's, and every day
is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch. You TURN 4:30. You REACH bedtime.
(My grandmother won't even buy green bananas. It's an investment you
know, and maybe a bad one.)
And it doesn't end there. Into the 90's you start going backwards; "I
was JUST 92."
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a
little kid again; "I'm 100 and a half!!!"
Ghost Story
A visiting professor at the University of Alabama is giving
a seminar on the supernatural. To get a feel for his
audience, he asks: "How many people here believe in
ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands.
"Well that's a good start. Out of those of you who believe
in ghosts, do any of you think you've ever seen a ghost?"
About 40 students raise their hands.
"That's really good. I'm really glad you take this
seriously. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?" 15
students raise their hands.
"That's a great response. Has anyone here ever touched a
ghost?" 3 students raise their hands.
"That's fantastic. But let me ask you one question
further... Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?"
One student in the back raises his hand. The professor is
astonished. He takes off glasses, takes a step back, and
says, "Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no
one has ever claimed to have slept with a ghost. You've
got to come up here and tell us about your experience."
The redneck student (remember, this is Alabama) replies with
a nod and begins to make his way up to the podium.
The professor says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have
sex with a Ghost."
The student replies, "Ghost?!? I thought you said
'goats.'"
A man is eating in a fancy restaurant, and there is a gorgeous
blond eating at the next table. He has been checking her out all
night, but lacks the nerve to go talk to her. Suddenly she sneezes
and her glass eye comes flying out of her socket towards the man. He
reflexively grabs and snatches it out of the air.
"Oh my god, I am sooo sorry, " the woman says as she pops her
eye back in place. "Let me buy you dinner to make it up to you."
They enjoy a wonderful dinner together and afterwards the woman
invites him back to her place for a drink. They go back to her
HOUSE, and after a bit she leads him into the bedroom and begins
Undressing him.
The couple have wild passionate sex over and over all night.
The next morning when he awakens, she has already gotten up and
brings him breakfast in bed. The guy is amazed.
"You know, you are the perfect woman. Are you this nice to
every guy you meet."
"No, she replies.... "You just happened to catch my eye.
Gloves
A young man wished to purchase a present for his sweetheart and after
careful consideration he decided on a pair of gloves.
Accompanied by his sweetheart's younger sister, he went to a department
store and bought a pair of white gloves. The sister purchased a pair of
panties for herself.
During wrapping, the items got mixed up. The sister got the gloves and
the sweetheart got the panties.
Without checking, he sealed the package and sent it to her with this note:
My darling. This is a little gift to show you I have not forgotten your
birthday. I chose them because I noticed you were not in the habit of
wearing any when we go out in the evening.
If it had not been for your younger sister, I would have chosen the ones
with buttons, but she wears the short ones that are very easy to remove.
These are a delicate shade, but the lady I bought them from showed me a
pair she had been wearing for three weeks and they were hardly soiled.
I had the sales girl try them on and she looked really smart. I wish I
could put them on you for the first time. No doubt other men's hands will
come in contact with them before I have a chance to see them again.
When you take them off, blow in them before putting them away as they will
naturally be a little damp from wearing. I hope you will like them and
will wear them for me on Friday night.
All my love xxxxx
PS. Just think how many times I will kiss them during the coming year.
Also the latest style is to wear them folded down with the fluff showing.
Billboards from God.
Some new billboards are getting attention in Cleveland. Some reported seeing one or two messages, but the newspaper listed all of them. Here's a list of all variations of the "God Speaks" billboards.

A little boy who wanted $100 very badly prayed and prayed
for two weeks, but nothing happened. Then he decided to
write a letter to God requesting the $100.
When the postal authorities received the letter to "God,
USA," they decided to send it to the president. The
president was so impressed, touched, and amused that he
instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5 bill.
The president thought this would appear to be a lot of money
to a little boy.
The little boy was delighted with the $5, and immediately
sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read, "Dear
God, Thank you for sending me the money. However, I noticed
that for some reason you had to send it through Washington
D.C., and as usual, those greedy politicians deducted 95
percent."
A few years ago at USC. There was a professor of philosophy
there who was a deeply committed atheist. His primary goal for one
required class was to spend the entire semester attempting to prove
that God couldn't exist.
His students were always afraid to argue with him because of his
impeccable logic. for twenty years, he had taught this class and
no one had ever had the courage to go against him. Sure, some had
argued in class at times, but no one had ever really gone against him
because of his reputation.
At the end of every semester on the last day, he would say to his Class
of 300 students, "If there is anyone here who still believes in Jesus,
stand up!" In twenty years, no one had ever stood up. They knew what
he was going to do next. He would say, "Because anyone who believes
in God is a fool. If God existed, he could stop this piece of chalk from
hitting the ground and breaking. Such a simple task to prove that He is
God, and yet He can't do it." And every year, he would drop the chalk
onto the tile floor of the classroom and it would shatter into a hundred
pieces.
All of the students would do nothing but stop and stare. Most of the
students thought that God couldn't exist. Certainly, a number of
Christians had slipped through, but for 20 years, they had been too
afraid to stand up.
Well, a few years ago there was a freshman who happened to enroll. He
was a Christian, and had heard the stories about his professor. He was
required to take the class for his major, and he was afraid. But for three
Months that semester, he prayed every morning that he would have the
courage to stand up no matter what the professor said, or what the class
thought. Nothing they said could ever shatter his faith...he hoped.
Finally, the day came. The professor said, " If there is anyone here who
Still believes in God, stand up!" The professor and the class of 300 people
looked at him, shocked, as he stood up at the back of the classroom.
The professor shouted, "You FOOL!!! If God existed, he would keep this
Piece of chalk from breaking when it hit the ground!" He proceeded to drop the
chalk, but as he did, it slipped out of his fingers, off his shirt cuff, onto the
pleat of his pants, down his leg, and off his shoe. As it hit the ground, it
simply rolled away unbroken.
The professor's jaw dropped as he stared at the chalk. He looked up at the
young man, and then ran out of the lecture hall. The young man who had
stood, proceeded to walk to the front of the room and shared his faith in
Jesus for the next half hour. 300 students stayed and listened as he told
of God's love for them and of His power through Jesus.

I put my faith in You, Lord. Give me Your strength, for I am weary.
And the Lord spoke to Noah and said: "In six months I'm going to make it rain
until the whole earth is covered with water and all the evil people are destroyed.
But I want to save a few good people, and two of every kind of living thing on
the planet. I am ordering you to build Me an Ark."
And in a flash of lightning he delivered the specifications for an Ark.
"OK," said Noah, trembling in fear and fumbling with the blueprints.
"Six months, and it starts to rain," thundered the Lord. "You'd better have my
Ark completed, or learn how to swim for a very long time."
And six months passed. The skies began to cloud up and rain began to fall.
The Lord saw that Noah was sitting in his front yard, weeping. And there was no
Ark.
"Noah," shouted the Lord, "where is my Ark?"
A lightning bolt crashed into the ground next to Noah.
"Lord, please forgive me!" begged Noah. "I did my best. But there were big
problems. First I had to get a building permit for the Ark construction project,
and your plans didn't meet code. So I had to hire an engineer to redraw the plans.
Then I got into a big fight over whether or not the Ark needed a fire sprinkler
system.
My neighbors objected, claiming I was violating zoning by building the Ark in
my front yard, so I had to get a variance from the city planning commission.
Then I had a big problem getting enough wood for the Ark because there was a
ban on cutting trees to save the Spotted Owl. I had to convince U.S. Fish and
Wildlife that I needed the wood to save the owls. But they wouldn't let me catch
any owls. So no owls.
Then the carpenters formed a union and went out on strike. I had to negotiate a
settlement with the National Labor Relations Board before anyone would pick
up a saw or a hammer. Now we have 16 carpenters going on the boat, and still
no owls.
Then I started gathering up animals, and got sued by an animal rights group.
They objected to me taking only two of each kind.
Just when I got the suit dismissed, EPA notified me that I couldn't complete the
Ark without filing an environmental impact statement on your proposed flood.
They didn't take kindly to the idea that they had no jurisdiction over the conduct
of a Supreme Being. Then the Army Corps of Engineers wanted a map of the
proposed new flood plain. I sent them a globe.
Right now I'm still trying to resolve a complaint from the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission over how many Croatians I'm supposed to hire, the
IRS has seized all my assets claiming I'm trying to avoid paying taxes by leaving
the country, and I just got a notice from the state about owing some kind of use
tax.
I really don't think I can finish your Ark for at least another five years," Noah
wailed.
The sky began to clear. The sun began to shine. A rainbow arched across the
sky.
Noah looked up and smiled. "You mean you're not going to destroy the earth?"
Noah asked, hopefully.
"No," said the Lord sadly, "Government already has."
One night a father overheard his son saying his prayers: "God bless
Mommy. God bless Daddy. God bless Grammy. GOODBY Grampa."
The father thought this strange, but soon forgot about it. The next day,
the Grandfather died.
About a month later the father heard his son saying his prayers again:
"God bless Mommy. God bless Daddy. GOODBYE Grammy." The next
day the grandmother died. The father was getting more than a little
worried.
Two weeks later the father again overheard his sons prayers. "God Bless
Mommy, GOODBYE Daddy. That was enough to almost give him a
heart attack. He got up real early to avoid the traffic, stayed at work
through lunch and dinner. Finally he went home after midnight relieved
to be still alive. He apologized to his wife for being late, saying he had a
very bad day at work.
"You think you had a bad day?" his wife yelled. "The mailman dropped

An annoyingly self-righteous teacher went to the doctor for a check-up. He
said, "I feel terrible. Please examine me and tell me what's wrong with
me."
"Let's begin with a few questions," said the doctor, "Do you drink much?"
"Alcohol?" said the teacher. "I'm a teetotaler. Never touch a drop."
"How about smoking?" asked the doctor.
"Never," replied the teacher. "Tobacco is
bad and I have strong principles against it."
"Well, uh," asked the doctor, "do you have much sex life?"
"Oh, no," said the teacher. "Sex is sin. I'm in bed by 10:30 every
night....always have been."
The doctor paused, looked at the teacher hard, and asked, "Well, do you
Have pains in your head?"
"Yes," said the teacher. "I have terrible pains in my
head."
"O.K.," said the doctor. "That's your trouble. Your halo is on too
tight."
Grade School Wisdom
One very enjoyable thing about sending your child off to elementary school is watching them learn those same pearls of playground wisdom that you remember from when YOU were a kid.
One fine example: The boy who turns his eyelids inside out.
And those kiddie urban legends: there's spider eggs in bubble gum, and if you eat Pop Rocks and drink a soda you'll explode.
Another example: those useful sayings that we heard on the playground as kids. I almost died laughing the other day when my daughter came home reciting this gem:
"Mamma Mia, Poppa Pia
Baby's got the diarrhea
Grandma said it wouldn't hurt
So I ate it for dessert."
I remember hearing THAT one when I was in kindergarten, 27 years ago! I wonder if the kid who originally made it up knows it's still around?
I'm sure we can all remember hearing these as well:
"Ta ra ra boom de ay,
I take your pants away
And while youre standing there
I'll take your underwear."
"Jimmy crap corn, and I don't care"
"'I'm Popeye the sailor man,
I live in a garbage can
I eat all the worms and I spit out the germs
I'm Popeye the sailor man."
And finally, one that's been around so long my mother remembers hearing it when SHE was in elementary school:
"There's a place in France
where the naked ladies dance
But the men don't care
Cause they wear no underwear."

Bare foot and dirty, the girl just sat and watched the people go by.
She never tried to speak, she never said a word. Many people passed,
but never did one person stop.
Just so happens the next day I decided to go back to the park, curious
if the little girl would still be there. Right in the very spot as she
was yesterday she sat perched on high, with the
saddest look in her eyes. Today I was to make my own move and walk over
to the little girl.
As we all know a park full of strange people is not a place for young
children to play alone. As I began walking towards her I could see the
back of the little girl's dress indicated a deformity. I figured that
was the reason the people just passed by and made no effort to help.
As I got closer, the little girl slightly lowered her eyes to avoid my
intent stare. I could see the shape of her back more clearly. It was
grotesquely shaped in a humped over form. I smiled to let her know it
was ok, I was there to help, to talk.
I sat down beside her and opened with a simple Hello. The little girl
acted shocked and stammered a hi after a long stare into my eyes. I
smiled and she shyly smiled back. We talked 'til darkness fell and the
park was completely empty. Everyone was gone and we at once were alone.
I asked the girl why she was so sad. The little girl looked at me and
with a sad face said "Because I'm different."
I immediately said "that you are!" and smiled. The little girl acted
even sadder, she said, "I know."
"Little girl," I said, "you remind me of an angel, sweet and innocent."
She looked at me and smiled, slowly she stood to her feet, and said,
"Really?"
"Yes, ma'am, you're like a little guardian angel sent to watch over all
those people walking by."
She nodded her head yes and smiled, and with that she spread her wings
and said, "I am. I'm your guardian angel," with a twinkle in her eye. I
was speechless, sure I was seeing things.
She said, "For once you thought of someone other than yourself, my job
here is done."
Immediately I stood to my feet and said, "Wait, so why did no one stop
to help an angel?"
She looked at me and smiled, "You're the only one who could see me, and
you believe it in your heart." And She was gone. And with that my life
was changed dramatically. So, when you think
you're all you have, remember, your angel is always watching over you.
Pass this to everyone that means anything at all to you . . . make sure
you send it back to the person who sent it to you, to let them know
you're glad they care about you . . . like the story says we all need
someone.. :o)
"Guillotine"
Three men stood on the platform waiting their turn to be beheaded
by guillotine; a priest, lawyer and architect/engineer. The
priest was taken to the block first and when asked whether he
wanted to face up or down, he said he wanted to face up in order
to see God when the blade struck. He was placed on the block with
his face up as requested and the huge blade was dropped, but the
blade stopped an inch above his neck! The crowd gasped. It was
considered a sign of his innocence and he was freed.
The lawyer was then led to the block and asked the same question.
He said he wanted to face down to see where he was going when the
blade struck. He was placed on the block with his face down and
the huge blade was dropped, but again it stopped an inch above
his neck! The crowd gasped! As before, this was considered a sign
of his innocence and he was freed.
When the architect/engineer was led to the block and asked which
way he wanted to face he said he wanted to face up and so he was
placed on the block with his face up looking at the blade and
scaffolding holding it. Seconds before the blade dropped, he
turned his head toward the executioner and said "STOP! I think I
see what the problem is".
A black man and his wife were going to a Halloween party in a couple of days. The husband tells his wife to go to the store and get costumes for them to wear.
When he comes home that night he goes to the bedroom where there laid out on the bed was a Superman costume. The husband yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you ever heard of a black Superman? Take this back and get me something else I can wear."
The next day the wife not too happy, returns the costume and gets a replacement. The husband comes home from work once more and there laid out on the bed was a Batman costume. He again yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you ever heard of a black Batman? Take this back and get me something I can wear to the costume party."
By this time the wife is irate, so the next morning she goes shopping. When the husband comes home again from work there laid out on the bed are three items. In one neat pile is a set of three white buttons, another is a white belt, and the third item is a 2 x 4 of wood. The husband yells at the wife, "What the hell are these for?" The wife yells back, "You can take your clothes off and take the three white buttons and put them on the front of you and go as a domino, and if you don't like that one, you can take the belt and put it on and go as an Oreo cookie. And if you don't like that one, you can stick the 2 x 4 up your ass and go as a fudgesickle."
Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, were invited to a swanky
masked Halloween Party. His wife got a terrible headache
and told Al to go to the party alone. Al, being a devoted
husband, protested, but his wife argued and said she
was going to take some aspirin and go to bed, and there
was no need of his good time being spoiled by not going.
So Al took his costume and away he went.
His wife, after sleeping soundly for one hour,
awakened without pain, and as it was still early,
she decided to go to the party. Since Al did
not know what her costume was, she thought she would
have some fun by watching Al to see how he acted when
she was not with him.
She joined the party and soon spotted Al cavorting
around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice
chick he could, and copping a little feel here and a
little kiss there. His wife sidled up to him, and being
a rather seductive babe herself, Al left his partner
high and dry and devoted his time to the new stuff
that had just arrived.
She let Al go as far as he wished; naturally, since
he was her husband. Finally Al whispered a little
proposition in her ear and she agreed, so off they
went to one of the cars and had a little bang.
Just before unmasking at midnight, she slipped away
and went home and put the costume away and got into bed,
wondering what kind of explanation Al would make for
his behavior.
She was sitting up reading when Al came in and asked
what kind of a time he had. Al said, "Oh, the same
old thing. You know I never have a good time when
you're not there."
Then she asked, "Did you dance much?"
Al replied, "I'll tell you, I never even danced one dance.
When I got there, I met Larry Flint, Janet Reno, and
some other guys, so we went into the den and played
poker all evening. But I'll tell you... I loaned my
costume to Bill and he told me he had a great time!"

A cold March wind danced around the dead of night in Dallas as the
doctor walked into the small hospital room of Diana Blessing. Still
groggy from surgery, her husband David held her hand as they braced
themselves for the latest news. That afternoon of March 10, 1991,
complications had forced Diana, only 24-weeks pregnant, to undergo
an emergency cesarean to deliver the couple's new daughter, Danae Lu
Blessing.
At 12 inches long and weighing only one pound and nine ounces, they
already knew she was perilously premature. Still, the doctor's soft
words dropped like bombs. "I don't think she's going to make it," he
said, as kindly as he could. "There's only a 10-percent chance she
will live through the night, and even then, if by some slim chance
she does make it, her future could be a very cruel one."
Numb with disbelief, David and Diana listened as the doctor
described the devastating problems Danae would likely face if she
survived. She would never walk. She would never talk. She would
probably be blind. She would certainly be prone to other
catastrophic conditions from cerebral palsy to complete mental
retardation. And on and on. "No ... No!" was all Diana could say.
She and David, with their 5-year-old son Dustin, had long dreamed of
the day they would have a daughter to become a family of four. Now,
within a matter of hours, that dream was slipping away.
Through the dark hours of morning as Danae held onto life by the
thinnest thread, Diana slipped in and out of drugged sleep, growing
more and more determined that their tiny daughter would live - and
live to be a healthy, happy young girl. But David, fully awake and
listening to additional dire details of their daughter's chances of
ever leaving the hospital alive, much less healthy, knew he must
confront his wife with the inevitable.
"David walked in and said that we needed to talk about making
funeral arrangements," Diana remembers. "I felt so bad for him
because he was doing everything, trying to include me in what was
going on, but I just wouldn't listen. I said, "No, that is not going
to happen, no way!
I don't care what the doctors say. Danae is not going to die! One
day she will be just fine, and she will be coming home with us!"
As if willed to live by Diana's determination, Danae clung to life
hour after hour, with the help of every medical machine and marvel
her miniature body could endure. But as those first days passed, new
agony set in for David and Diana. Because Danae's underdeveloped
nervous system was essentially "raw", the lightest kiss or caress
only intensified her discomfort - so they couldn't even cradle their
tiny baby girl against their chests to offer the strength of their
love. All they could do, as Danae struggled alone beneath the
ultraviolet light in the tangle of tubes and wires, was to pray that
God would stay close to their precious little girl.
There was never a moment when Danae suddenly grew stronger. But as
the weeks went by, she did slowly gain an ounce of weight here and
an ounce of strength there.
At last, when Danae turned two months old, her parents were able to
hold her in their arms for the very first time. And two months
later, though doctors continued to gently but grimly warn that her
chances of surviving, much less living any kind of normal life, were
next to zero.
Danae went home from the hospital, just as her mother had predicted.
Today, five years later, Danae is a petite but feisty young girl
with glittering gray eyes and an unquenchable zest for life. She
shows no signs, whatsoever, of any mental or physical impairments.
Simply, she is everything. a little girl can be and more - but that
happy ending is far from the end of her story.
One blistering afternoon in the summer of 1996 near her home in
Irving, Texas, Danae was sitting in her mother's lap in the
bleachers of a local ball park where her brother Dustin's baseball
team was practicing. As always, Danae was chattering nonstop with
her mother and several other adults sitting nearby when she suddenly
fell silent.
Hugging her arms across her chest, Danae asked, "Do you smell that?"
Smelling the air and detecting the approach of a thunderstorm, Diana
replied, "Yes, it smells like rain." Danae closed her eyes and again
asked, "Do you smell that?" Once again, her mother replied, "Yes, I
think we're about to get wet. It smells like rain." Still caught in
the moment, Danae shook her head, patted her thin shoulders with her
small hands and loudly announced, "No, it smells like Him. It smells
like God when you lay your head on his chest." Tears blurred Diana's
eyes as Danae then happily hopped down to play with the other
children before the rains came. Her daughter's words confirmed what
Diana and all the members of the extended Blessing family had known,
at least in their hearts, all along. During those long days and
nights of her first two months of her life when her nerves were too
sensitive for them to touch her, God was holding Danae on his chest
- and it is His loving scent that she remembers so well.

One day while walking down the street a highly successful executive
woman was tragically hit by a bus and she died. Her soul arrived up in
heaven where she was met at the Pearly Gates by St. Peter.
"Welcome to Heaven," said St. Peter. "Before you get settled in though,
it seems we have a problem. You see, strangely enough, we've never once
had an executive make it this far and we're not really sure what to do
with you."
"No problem, just let me in," said the woman.
"Well, I'd like to, but I have higher orders. What we're going to do is
let you have a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and then you can choose
whichever one you want to spend an eternity in."
"Actually, I think I've made up my mind...I prefer to stay in Heaven,"
said the woman.
"Sorry, we have rules..."
And with that St. Peter put the executive in an elevator and it went
down to hell. The doors opened and she found herself stepping out onto
the putting green of a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a
country club and standing in front of her were all of her friends and
they were all dressed in fine evening wear and cheering for her. They
ran up and kissed her on both cheeks and they talked about old times.
They played an excellent round of golf and at night went to the country
club where she enjoyed an excellent steak and lobster dinner. She met
the Devil who was actually a really nice guy and she had a great time
telling jokes and dancing.
She was having such a good time that before she knew it, it was time to
leave. Everybody shook her hand and waved good-bye as she got on the
elevator. The elevator went back up to the Pearly Gates and found St.
Peter. "Now it's time to spend a day in heaven," he said.
So she spent the next 24 hours lounging around on clouds and playing the
harp and singing. She had a great time and before she knew it her 24
hours were up and St. Peter came and got her.
"So, you've spent a day in hell and you've spent a day in heaven.
Now you must choose your eternity," he said.
The woman paused for a second and then replied, "Well, I never thought
I'd say this, I mean, Heaven has been really great and all, but I think
I had a better time in Hell."
So St. Peter escorted her to the elevator and again she went back to
Hell. When the doors of the elevator opened she found herself standing
in a desolate wasteland covered in garbage and filth. She saw her
friends were dressed in rags and were picking up the garbage and putting
it in sacks. The Devil came up to her and put his arm around her.
"I don't understand," stammered the woman, "yesterday I was here and
there was a golf course and a country club and we ate lobster and we
danced and had a great time. Now all there is a wasteland of garbage
and all my friends look miserable."
The Devil looked at her and smiled. "Yesterday we were recruiting you.
A friend of mine once sent me a post card with a picture of the entire planet

This is a true story:
*** EVEN if you get a little lost, read to the end, which is very funny.
A thermodynamics professor had written a take-home exam for his graduate
students. It had one question:
Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with a proof.
For Non-science majors, exothermic is when something releases heat and
endothermic is when something generates heat. Most of the students wrote
proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however,
wrote the following:
"First, we postulate that if souls exist, they must have some mass. If they do,
then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into
hell and at what rate are souls leaving" I think that we can safely assume that
once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for
souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world
today.
Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you
will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do
not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls
go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of
souls in hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in
order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the
mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.
#1 So, if hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell,
then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
#2 Of course, if hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the postulate given me by Jennifer Smith during

Helpful Tips To Make Life Simpler
Old telephone books make ideal personal address books.
Simply cross out the names and addresses of people you don't know.
Fool other drivers into thinking you have an expensive car phone
by holding an old TV or video remote control up to your ear

and banging your head repeatedly on the wall.
HENRY FORD AND GOD COMPARE NOTES
Henry Ford dies and goes to heaven. At the gates, an angel
tells Ford, "Well, you've been such a good guy and your
invention --- the assembly line for the automobile --- changed
the world. As a reward, you can hang out with anyone you
want to in Heaven."
Ford thinks about it and says, "I wanna hang out with God,
Himself." The befeathered fellow at the Gate takes Ford to the
Throne Room and introduces him to God. Ford then asks God,
"Hey, aren't you the inventor of Woman?"
God says, "Ah, yes." "Well," says Ford, "You hve some major
design flaws in your invention:
1. there's too much front end protrusion
2. it chatters at high speeds
3. the rear end wobbles too much, and
4. the intake is placed too close to the exhaust."
"Hmmm..." replies God, "hold on." God goes to the Celestial
Supercomputer, types in a few keystrokes, and waits for the
result.
The computer prints out a slip of paper and God reads it. "It
may be that my invention is flawed," God replies to Henry
Ford, "but according to My Computer, more men are riding
my invention than yours."
It's your first time. As you lie back your muscles tighten. You put him
off for awhile searching for an excuse, but he refuses to be swayed as
he approaches you. He asks if you're afraid and you shake your head
bravely.
He has had more experience, but it's the first time his finger has found
the right place. He probes deeply and you shiver; your body tenses; but
he's gentle like he promised he'd be. He looks deeply within your eyes
and tells you to trust him-- he's done this many times before. His cool
smile relaxes you and you open wider to give him more room for an
ease entrance. You begin to plead and beg him to hurry, but he slowly
takes his time, wanting to cause you as little pain as possible.
As he presses closer, going deeper, you feel the tissue give way; pain
surges throughout your body and you feel the slight trickle of blood as
he continues. He looks at you concerned and asks you if it's too
painful. Your eyes are filled with tears but you shake you head and nod
for him to go on. He begins moving in and out with skill but you are
now too numb to feel him within you. After a few frenzied moments,
you feel something bursting within you and he pulls it out of you, you
lay panting, glad to have it over. He looks
at you and smiling warmly, tells you, with a chuckle; that you have
been his most stubborn yet most rewarding experience.
You smile and thank your dentist. After all, it was your first time to
have a tooth pulled.
Naughty, Naughty! What were you thinkin'? PERVERT I know what

THAT TOUCHES MY MAN.
My First Time
The sky was dark
The moon was high
All alone
Just her and I
Her hair so soft
Her eyes so blue
I knew just what
She wanted to do
Her skin so soft
Her legs so fine
I ran my fingers
Down her spine
I didn't know how
But I tried my best
To place my hand
On her breasts
I remember my fear
My fast beating heart
But slowly she spread
(keep on reading)
Her legs apart
And when she did it
I felt no shame
All at once
The white stuff came
At last it's finished
It's all over now

Like a good roll of duct tape yo're there fer yore man,
to patch up life's troubles and fix what you can.
Yo're as cute as a junebug a-buzzin' overhead.
You ain't mean like those far ants I found in my bed.

you spark up my life more than a fresh load of dirt.
When you hold me real tight like a padded gunrack,

Yore complexion, it's perfection, like the best vinyl sidin'.

Some men git roses on that special day
from the cooler at Kroger. That's impressive," I say.
Some men buy fine diamonds from a flea market booth.
"Diamonds are forever," they explain, suave and couth.

The Hippie and the busdriver
One day there was a hippie who got on a bus. The bus was
very crowded and the man took a seat next to a young nun. He
was very attracted to the nun, because she was surprisingly
beautiful. After getting his courage up,he finally said to the
nun "Will you have sex with me?"
The nun,disgusted, told the bus driver to stop the bus and she
got off. The man was very disappointed and he moved up to
the front of the bus to wait for his stop.
Seeing that the young hippie was upset, the bus driver decided
to help him out. He said to the young man, "I know that nun.
Every night, she goes tothe grave yard at 9:00 to pray at the
grave of her friend. If you go thereand pretend that you are
Jesus, there is no way she would turn down God's request. Just
tell her that you are Jesus and ask her to have sex with
you."
This gave the hippie great hope.That night, he went to the
graveyard, and sure enough, there was the nun.As she kneeled
down, he decided to make his move. He walked over to her,
dressed in a white robe with a hood and said to the nun "I am
Jesus Christ, will you have sex with me?" Now, of course the
nun could not deny the power of God, so she agreed. "I just
have one request," said thenun, "it has to be anal sex, so I can
remain a virgin and continue in my sisterhood." The disguised
hippie agreed and the two had sex.
When they were done, the man thought that it would be funny
to reveal his identity to the nun. He took off his robe,
revealing a tye dyed shirt, ripped jeans, and hemp nacklaces.
"HA HA!! I'm not Jesus, I'm the hippie!" He exclaimed.
Much to the young man's surprise, the nun took off her habit,
revealing a gray shirt and gray pants. Laughing, she yelled
"HA HA! I'm not thenun, I'm the bus driver!"

True Story right from the Associated Press:
Linda Burnett, 23, was visiting her in-laws. While there, she
went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries.
Several people noticed her sitting in her car with the windows
rolled up, her eyes closed, and both hands behind the back of
her head.
One customer who had been at the store for a while became
concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda's
eyes were now open, and she looked very strange. He asked
her if she was okay, and Linda replied that she'd been shot in
the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in for
over an hour.
The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car
because the doors were locked, and Linda refused to remove
her hands from her head.
When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of
bread dough on the back of her head.
A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making
a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough
hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find
out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her
brains.
She had initially passed out, but quickly recovered and tried to
hold her brains in for over an hour-until someone noticed and
came to her aid.
And, yes, Linda is a blonde
HOLIDAY DIET TIPS
If no one sees you eat it, it has no calories.
If you drink a diet soda with a candy bar, they cancel each other out.
When eating with someone else,
calories don't count if you both eat the same amount.
Foods used for medicinal purposes have no calories.
This includes any chocolate used for energy, brandy,
Sara Lee Cheesecake (eaten whole), and Haagen-Daz Ice Cream.
Cookie pieces contain no calories because the process of breakage
causes calorie leakage.
If you eat the food off someone else's plate, it doesn't count.
If you eat standing up the calories all go to your feet
and get walked off.
Food eaten at Christmas parties has no calories, courtesy of Santa.
STRESSED is just DESSERTS spelled backward.
She writes:
The other day I went to the local religious bookstore where I
saw a "Honk if you REALLY love Jesus" bumper sticker. I
bought it and put it on the back bumper of my car and I'm
really glad I did. What an uplifting experience followed. I was
stopped at the light of a busy intersection... just lost in thought
about the Lord, and didn't notice that the light had changed.
That bumper sticker really worked! I found lots of people who
love Jesus. Why, the guy behind me started to honk like crazy.
He must really love the Lord because pretty soon he leaned
out his window and yelled, "Jesus Christ!!" as loud as he
could. Why, it was like a football game with him shoutin, "Go,
Jesus Christ, Go!" In a clear, ringing voice, somebody behind
him yelled: "Move along for Christ's sake!!" Then everyone
else started honking too, so I leaned out my window and
waved and smiled to all those loving people. There must have
been a guy from Florida back there because I could hear him
yelling something about a sunny beach, and I saw him waving
in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air.
I had recently asked my two grandsons what that meant. They
kind of squirmed, looked at each other, giggled and told me
that it was the Hawaiian good luck sign, so I leaned out the
window and gave him the good luck sign back. A couple of
the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that
they got out of their cars and were walking towards me. I bet
they wanted to pray, but just then I noticed that the light had
changed, and I stepped on the gas. It's a good thing I did,
because I was the only car to get across the intersection. I
looked back at them standing there. I leaned out the window,
gave them a big smile, and held up the Hawaiian Good Luck
sign as I drove away. Praise the Lord for such wonderful
folks!
Love ya all, Grandma
WHAT'S Y'ALL'S SIGN???
(HOROSCOPES FOR SOUTHERNERS)
It has become pretty obvious to us Southerners that our present astrological signs haven't served their purpose and that we should get rid of them. When I'm out driving around I'll see bulls, and once in a great while I suppose I'll even see a ram. Up the street from me there's some twins, but I don't see them much. The rest of these things are just too obscure. You only see crabs on vacation. There are no lions or scorpions, not many archers and no water bearers.
THE NEW SIGNS
Okra
Dec. 22-Jan. 20
Although you appear crude, you are actually very slick on the inside. Okra have tremendous influence. An older Okra can look back over his life and see the seeds of his influence everywhere. Stay away from Moon Pies.
Chitlin
Jan. 21-Feb. 19
Chitlins often come from humble backgrounds. Many times they're uncomfortable talking about just where they came from. A chitlin, however, can make something of himself if he's motivated and has plenty of seasoning. When it comes to dealing with Chitlins, be very careful. Chitlins are best with Catfish and Okra. Remember that when marriage time rolls around.
Boll Weevil -
Feb. 20-March 20
You have an overwhelming curiosity. You're unsatisfied with the surface of things, and you feel the need to bore deep into the interior of everything. Needless to say, you are very intense and driven as if you had some inner hunger. Nobody in their right mind is going to marry you, so don't worry about it.
Moon Pie -
March 21-April 20
You're the type that spends a lot of time on the front porch. It's a cinch to recognize the physical appearance of Moon Pies. "Big" and "round" are the key words here. You should marry anybody who you can get remotely interested in the idea. It's not going to be easy. This might be the year to think about aerobics. Maybe not.
Possum
April 21-May 21
When confronted with life's difficulties, possums have a marked tendency to withdraw and develop a "don't-bother-me-about-it" attitude. Sometimes you become so withdrawn, people actually think you're dead. This strategy is probably not psychologically healthy, but seems to work for you. One day, however, it won't work, and you may find your problems actually running you over.
Crawfish -
May 22-June 21
Crawfish is a water sign. If you work in an office, you're always hanging around the water cooler. Crawfish prefer the beach to the mountains, the pool to the golf course, the bathtub to the living room. You tend not to be particularly attractive physically.
Collards -
June 22-July 23
Collards have a genius for communication. They love to get in the "melting pot" of life and share their essence with the essences of those around them. Collards make good social workers, psychologists, and baseball managers. As far as your personal life goes, if you are Collards stay away from Moon Pies. It just won't work. Save yourself a lot of heartache.
Catfish -
July 24-Aug. 23
Catfish are traditionalists in matters of the heart, with one exception: Whiskers may cause problems for loved ones. You catfish are never easy people to understand. You prefer the muddy bottoms to the clear surface of life. Above all else, Catfish should stay away from Moon Pies.
Grits -
Aug. 24-Sept. 23
Your highest aim is to be with others like yourself. You like to huddle together with a big crowd of other Grits. You love to travel, though, so maybe you should think about joining a club. Where do you like to go? Anywhere they have cheese or gravy or bacon or butter or eggs. If you can go somewhere where they have all these things, that serves you well.
Boiled Peanuts -
Sept. 24-Oct. 23
You have a passionate desire to help your fellow man. Unfortunately, those who know you best - your friends and loved ones - may find that your personality is much too salty, and their criticism will probably affect you deeply because you are really much softer than you appear. You should go right ahead and marry anybody you want to because in a certain way, yours is a charmed life. On the road of life, you can be sure that people will always pull over and stop for you.
Butter Bean -
Oct. 24-Nov. 22
Always invite a Butter Bean because Butter Beans get along well with everybody. You, as a Butter Bean, should be proud. You've grown on the vine of life and you feel at home no matter what the setting. You can sit next to anybody. However, you, too, shouldn't have anything to do with Moon Pies.
Armadillo -
Nov. 23-Dec. 21
You have a tendency to develop a tough exterior, but you are actually quite gentle. A good evening for you? Old friends, a fire, some roots, fruit, worms and insects. You are a throwback. You're not concerned with today's fashions and trends. You're not concerned with anything about today. You're really almost prehistoric in your interests and behavior patterns. You probably want to marry another Armadillo, but Possum is another mating possibility.
Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.
One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each
afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was
next to the room's only window.
The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.
The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives
and families,their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the
military service, where they had been on vacation. And every
afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit
up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all
the things he could see outside the window.
The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour
periods where his would be broadened and enlivened by all
the activity and color of the world outside. The window
overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played
on the water while children sailed their model boats.Young
lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the
rainbow.Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view
of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.
As the man by the window described all this in exquisite
detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his
eyes and imagine the picturesque scene. One warm afternoon
the man by the window described a parade passing by.
Although the other man couldn't hear the band he could see it
in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it
with descriptive words.
Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to
bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the
man by the window,who had died peacefully in his sleep. She
was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the
body away. As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man
asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse
was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was
comfortable, she left him alone.
Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take
his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the
joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look
out the window beside the bed.
It faced a blank wall.
The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his
deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things
outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was
blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he
just wanted to encourage you."
Epilogue...There is tremendous happiness in making others
happy, despite our own situations. Shared grief is half the
sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled. If you want to
feel rich, just count all of the things you have that money can't
buy.
The origin of this letter is unknown, but it brings good luck to
everyone who passes it on. Do not keep this letter. Do not
send money.
Just forward it to five of your friends to whom you wish good
luck. You will see that something good happens to you four
days from now.
Hot Tub Tips For Women
1- It is not lady like to straddle a water jet, moan in ecstasy, then scream at the top of your lungs, "Oh yes baby!"
2- Washing your partners back is sexy. Washing your pantyhose is not!
3- Group nude bathing with strangers can be a pleasant experience, but don'tspoil things by making snide remarks like "I've seen bigger wangs on Hamsters"
4- It's OK to pass a joint while tubbing. It's not OK to pass gas.
5- Don't think you're fooling anybody by trying to pass off your vibrator as a toy submarine!

HOW MUCH DOES PRAYER WEIGH?
Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look of defeat on
her face, walked into a grocery store. She approached the owner
of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let
her charge a few groceries. She softly explained that her husband
was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children and
they needed food.
John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested that
she leave his store. Visualizing the family needs, she said:
'Please, sir! I will bring you the money just as soon as I can."
John told her he could not give her credit, as she did not have a
charge account at his store.
Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard the
conversation between the two. The customer walked forward
and told the grocerman that he would stand good for whatever
she needed for her family.
The grocerman said in a very reluctant voice, "Do you have a
list? Louise replied "Yes sir" "O.K." he said, "put your grocery
list on the scales and whatever your grocery list weighs, I will
give you that amount in groceries."
Louise, hesitated a moment with a bowed head, then she reached
into her purse and took out a piece of paper and scribbled
something on it. She then laid the piece of paper on the scale
carefully with her head still bowed. The eyes of the grocerman
and the customer showed amazement when the scales went
down and stayed down. The grocerman staring at the scales,
turned slowly to the customer and said begrudgingly, "I can't
believe it."
The customer smiled and the grocerman started putting the
groceries on the other side of the scales. The scale did not
balance so he continued to put more and more groceries on them
until the scales wouldhold no more. The grocerman stood there
in utter disgust. Finally, he grabbed the piece of paper from the
scales and looked at it with greater amazement. It was not a
grocery list, it was a prayer which said: "Dear Lord, you know
my needs and I am leaving this in your hands."
The grocerman gave her the groceries that he had gathered and
placed on the scales and stood in stunned silence. Louise
thanked him and left the store. The customer handed a fifty-
dollar bill to John as he said, "It was worth every penny of it." It
was sometime later that John Longhouse discovered the scales
were broken; therefore, only God knows how much a prayer
weighs.
POWER OF PRAYER
When you receive this, say a prayer. That's all you have to do.
Just stop right now, and say a prayer for the one who sent this to
you. There is nothing attached. This is powerful. Then send this
to four people. Don't break this, please. Prayer is one of the best
free gifts we receive.
A hot shot East Coast newspaper reporter was on assignment in West Virginia,
when he struck up a conversation with a young lady in a bar. After a half
dozen drinks, he suggested they get their own bottle and retire to his motel
room, and she readily agreed.
"Say, how old are you anyway?" the reporter asked as the obviously young lass
was disrobing.
"Thirteen," she replied with a shy smile.
"Thirteen ??? My God girl !!! You get those clothes back on at once at get
the hell outta here ! Are you crazy ?" he thundered.
Pausing briefly at the door as she left, the perplexed nymphet smiled and
said, "Superstitious, huh ?"

HOW TO SING THE BLUES
(attrib. to Memphis Earlene Gray with help from Uncle Plunky)
1. Most blues begin "woke up this morning."
2. "I got a good woman" is a bad way to begin the blues, unless you
stick something nasty in the next line. Such as, "I got a good
woman ------- with the meanest dog in town.
3. Blues are simple. After you have the first line right, repeat it.
Then find something that rhymes. Sort of:
I got a good woman
with the meanest dog in town.
He got teeth like Margaret Thatcher
and he weighs 'bout 500 pounds.
4. The blues are not about limitless choice.
5. Blues cars are Chevies and Cadillacs. Other acceptable blues
transportation is Greyhound bus or a southbound train. Walkin' plays
a major part in the blues lifestyle. So does fixin' to die.
6. Teenagers can't sing the blues. Adults sing the blues. Blues
adulthood means old enough to get the electric chair if you shoot a
man in Memphis.
7. You can have the blues in New York City, but not in Brooklyn or
Queens. Hard times in Vermont or North Dakota are just a depression.
Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City are still the best places to have
the blues.
8. The following colors do not belong in the blues:
a. violet
b. beige
c. mauve
9. You can't have the blues in an office or a shopping mall, the
lighting is wrong.
10. Good places for the Blues:
a. the highway
b. the jailhouse
c. the empty bed
11. Bad places for the Blues:
a. Ashrams
b. Gallery openings
c. a weekend in the Hamptons
12. No one will believe it's the blues if you wear a suit, unless
you happen to be an old black man.
13. Do you have the right to sing the blues?
YES, if:
a. your first name is a southern state--like Georgia.
b. you're blind.
c. you shot a man in Memphis.
d. you can't be satisfied.
NO, if:
a. you were once blind but now can see.
b. you're deaf.
c. you have a trust fund.
14. Neither Julio Iglesias nor Barbara Streisand have the right to
sing the blues.
15. If you ask for water and baby gives you gasoline, it's the blues.
Other blues beverages are:
a. wine
b. Irish whiskey
c. muddy water
Blues beverages are NOT:
a. Any mixed drink
b. Any wine kosher for Passover
c. Yoo Hoo (all flavors)
16. If it occurs in a cheap motel or a shotgun shack, it's blues
death. Stabbed in the back by a jealous lover is a blues way to die. So is
the electric chair, substance abuse, or being denied treatment in an
emergency room. It is not a blues death, if you die during a
liposuction treatment.
17. Acceptable Blues names:
For WOMEN
a. Sadie
b. Big Mama
c. Bessie
For MEN
a. Joe
b. Willie
c. Big Willie
d. Little Willie
e. Lightning
17A. Persons with names like Sierra or Sequoia will not be permitted
to sing the blues no matter how many men they shoot in Memphis.
17B. Other acceptable Blues Names (Starter Kit)
a. Name of Physical infirmity (Blind, Cripple, Asthmatic)
b. First name (see above) or name of fruit (Lemon, Lime, Kiwi)
c. Last Name of President (Jefferson, Johnson, Fillmore, etc.

WARNING! PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY!
THIS IS SERIOUS!
If you get an envelope from a company called the
Internal Revenue Service," DO NOT OPEN IT!
This group operates a scam around this time
every year. Their letter claims that you owe
them money, which they will take and use to pay
for the operation of essential functions of the
United States government. This is untrue! The
money the IRS collects is used to fund various
inefficient and pointless social engineering projects.
This organization has ties to another shady outfit
called the Social Security Administration, who
claim to take money from your regular
paychecks and save it for your retirement. In
truth, the SSA uses the money to pay for the
same misguided make-work projects the IRS
helps mastermind.
These scam artists have bilked honest, hard working
Americans out of billions of dollars. Don't be among them!
Hey, I am not a lumberjack or a fur trader.
I don't live in an igloo, or eat blubber or own a dog sled. And I don't know Jimmy, Sally, or Suzy from Canada (although I'm certain they're really, really nice.)
I have a prime minister not a president.
I speak English and French, not American, and I pronounce it "about" not "aboot."
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peacekeeping, not policing, diversity, not assimilation, and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch and it is pronounced "zed" not "zee"- "zed."
Canada's the second largest land mass, the first nation of hockey and the best part of North America! My name is Joe and I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!!!! Thank you.

I'VE LEARNED
I love the rain........
I've learned that I like my teacher because she cries when we sing
"Silent Night." Age 6
I've learned that you can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass
of milk. Age 7
I've learned that when I wave to people in the country, they
stop what they are doing and wave back. Age 9
I've learned that just when I get my room the way I like it,
Mom makes me clean it up. Age 13
I've learned that if you want to cheer yourself up, you should
try cheering someone else up. Age 14
I've learned that although it's hard to admit it, I'm secretly
glad my parents are strict with me. Age 15
I've learned that silent company is often more healing than
words of advice. Age 24
I've learned that brushing my child's hair is one of life's
great pleasures. Age 26
I've learned that wherever I go, the world's worst drivers have
followed me there. Age 29
I've learned...that if someone says something unkind about me,
I must live so that no one will believe it. Age 39
I've learned that the greater a person's sense of guilt, the
greater his need to cast blame on others. Age 46
I've learned that motel mattresses are better on the side away
from the phone. Age 50
I've learned that you can tell a lot about a man by the way he
handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and
tangled Christmas tree lights. Age 52
I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your
parents, you miss them terribly after they die. Age 53
I've learned that making a living is not the same thing as
making a life. Age 58
I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
Age 62
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catchers
mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
Age 64
I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you.
But if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your work,
meeting new people, and doing the very best you can, happiness will
find you. Age 65
I've learned that whenever I decide something with kindness, I usually
make the right decision. Age 66
I've learned that everyone can use a prayer. Age 72
I've learned that it pays to believe in miracles. And to tell
the truth, I've seen several. Age 73
I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
Age 82
I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch
someone. People love that human touch-holding hands,
a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. Age 85
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. Age 92
Please pass this on to someone you care about. Sometimes they
just need a little something to make them smile....
IDIOTS AT WORK...
I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the
clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the
credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the
transaction unless the card was signed.
When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to
compare the signature on the credit card with the signature I just
signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her.
She carefully compared that signature to the one I signed on the
receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.
ADVICE FOR IDIOTS
An actual tip from page 16 of the HP "Environmental, Health &
Safety Handbook for Employees: "Blink your eyelids
periodically to lubricate your eyes."
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call
the local township administrative office to request the removal
of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: Many deer
were being hit by cars and he no longer wanted them to cross
there.
IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE
My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She
asked the individual behind the counter for "minimal lettuce."
He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.
IDIOT SIGHTINGS Sighting #1:
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate, when the airport
employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage
without your knowledge?"
I said, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?"
He smiled and nodded knowingly, "That's why we ask."
Sighting #2:
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to cross the
street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged co-worker
of mine, when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I
explained that it signals to blind people when the light is red.
She responded, appalled, "What on earth are blind people doing
driving?"
Sighting #3:
At a good-bye lunch for an old and dear coworker who is
leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager spoke up
and said, "this is fun. We should have lunch like this more
often."
Not another word was spoken. We just looked at each other like
deer staring into the headlights of an approaching truck.
Sighting #4:
I worked with an Individual who plugged her power strip back
into itself and for the life of her could not understand why her
system would not turn on.
Sighting #5:
When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to
pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been accidentally
locked in it. We went to the service department and found a
mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door.
As I watched from the passenger's side, I instinctively tried the
door handle and discovered it was open.
"Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's open!"
"I know," answered the young man.- "I already got that side."
A man is driving up a steep, narrow mountain road. A woman is driving down the same road at the same time.
As they pass each other the woman leans out the window and yells, "PIG!"
The man immediately leans out his window and shouts back, "BITCH!"
They each continue on their way, and as the man rounds the next corner, he crashes into a pig in the middle of the road.
If only men would listen.

Dear Tech Support:
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed that
the new program began making unexpected changes to the accounting
software, severely limiting access to wardrobe, flower, and jewelry
applications that operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. No mention
of this phenomenon was included in the product brochure. In addition,
Husband 1.0 uninstalls many other valuable programs such as
DinnerDancing 7.5, CruiseShip 2.3, and OperaNight 6.1 and installs new,
undesirable programs such as PokerNight 1.3, SaturdayFootball 5.0,
Golf 2.4 and ClutterEverywhere 4.5.
Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and invariably crashes the system.
Under no circumstances will it run DiaperChanging 14.1 or
HouseCleaning 2.6.
I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix Husband 1.0, but this all purpose
utility is of limited effectiveness. Can you help please!!!!
Thank You, Jane
##############
Dear Jane:
This is a very common problem women complain about, but is mostly due
to a primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Boyfriend 5.0 to
Husband 1.0 with no idea that Boyfriend 5.0 is merely an ENTERTAINMENT
package. However, Husband 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and was designed
by its creator to run as few applications as possible. Further, you
cannot purge Husband 1.0 and return to Boyfriend 5.0, because
Husband 1.0 is not designed to do this. Hidden operating files within
your system would cause Boyfriend 5.0 to emulate Husband 1.0, so
nothing is gained.
It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or purge the program files from
the system, once installed. Any new program files can only be installed
once per year, as Husband 1.0 has severely limited memory. Error
messages are common, and a normal part of Husband 1.0.
In desperation to play some of their "old time" favorite applications,
or to get new applications to work, some women have tried to install
Boyfriend 6.0, or Husband 2.0. However, these women end up with more
problems than encountered with Husband 1.0. Look in your manual under
"Warnings: Divorce/Child Support". You will notice that this program
runs very poorly, and comes bundled with HeartBreak 1.3. I recommend
you keep Husband 1.0, and just learn the quirks of this strange and
illogical system.
Having Husband 1.0 installed myself, I might also suggest you read the
entire section regarding General Partnership Faults (GPFs). This a
wonderful feature of Husband 1.0, secretly installed by the parent
company as an integral part of the operating system. Husband 1.0 must
assume ALL responsibility for ALL faults and problems, regardless of
root cause.
To activate this great feature enter the command "C:\ I THOUGHT YOU
LOVED ME" Sometimes Tears 6.2 must be run simultaneously while entering
the command.
Husband 1.0 should then run the applications Apologize 12.3 and
Flowers/Chocolates 7.8.
TECH TIP!
Avoid excessive use of this feature. Overuse can create additional and
more serious GPFs, and ultimately YOU may have to give a
"C:\>I APOLOGIZE"
command before the system will return to normal operations. Overuse can
also cause Husband 1.0 to default to GrumpySilence 2.5, or worse yet,
Beer 6.0.
Beer 6.0 is a very bad program that causes Husband 1.0 to create
FatBelly files and SnoringLoudly wave files that are very hard to
delete. Save yourself some trouble by following this tech tip!
Just remember! The system will run smoothly, and take the blame for all
GPFs, but because of this fine feature it can only intermittently run
all the applications Boyfriend 5.0 ran. Husband 1.0 is a great program,
but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications
quickly.
Consider buying additional software to improve performance. I personally
recommend HotFood 3.0, Lingerie 5.3 and Patience 10.1. Used in
conjunction, these utilities can really help keep Husband 1.0 running
smoothly. After several years of use, Husband 1.0 will become familiar
and you will find many valuable embedded features such as
FixesBrokenThings 2.1, Snuggling 4.2, and BestFriend 7.6.
A final word of caution! Do NOT, under any circumstances, install
MotherInLaw 1.0. This is not a supported application, and will cause
selective shut down of the operating system. Husband 1.0 will run only
Fishing 9.4 and Hunting 5.2 until MotherInLaw 1.0 is uninstalled.
I hope these notes have helped. Thank you for choosing to install
Husband 1.0 and we here at Tech Support wish you the best of luck in
coming years.
We trust you will learn to fully enjoy this product!
INSTALLING WIFE 1.0
Subject: Wife 1.0
To: Technical Support:
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed
that the new program began unexpected child processing that
took up a lot of space and valuable resources. No mention of
this phenomenon was included in the product brochure. In
addition, Wife1.0 installs itself into all other programs and
launches during system initialization, where it monitors all other
system activity.
Applications such as Pokernight 10.3, Drunken Boys Night 2.5
and Monday Football 5.0 no longer run, crashing the system
whenever selected. I cannot seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the
background while attempting to run some of my other favorite
applications. I am thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0,
but the un-install for Wife 1.0 does not work.
Can you help me, please!!!
Thanks,

Tech Support Writes Back
Dear Lord Joseph:
This is a very common problem male employees complain
about, but it is mostly due to a primary misconception. Many
people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 with the idea that
Wife 1.0 is merely a UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT
program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and
designed by its creator to run everything. It is unlikely you
would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still convert back to
Girlfriend 7.0. Hidden operating files within your system would
cause Girlfriend 7.0 to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing is gained.
It is impossible to un-install, delete, or purge the program files
from the system once installed. You cannot go back to Girlfriend
7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this. Some have tried
to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but end up with more
problems than the original system.
Look in your help files under "Warnings-Alimony/Child
Support". I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and just deal with
the situation. Having Wife 1.0 installed myself, I might also
suggest you read the entire section regarding General
Partnership Faults(GPFs). You must assume all
responsibility for faults and problems that might
occur, regardless of their cause. The best course of action will be
to enter the DOS-command
C:\APOLOGIZE or click the I'M SORRY! Icon for Macintosh
systems. In any case avoid excessive use of the Esc key because
ultimately you will have to give the APOLOGIZE/SORRY
command before the operating system will return to normal. The
system will run smoothly as long as you take the blame for all
the GPFs. Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high
maintenance.
Consider buying additional software to improve the performance
of Wife 1.0. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Chocolates 5.0.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, install Secretary With Short
Skirt 3.3. This is not a supported application for Wife 1.0 and is
likely to cause irreversible damage to YOUR hardware.
Best of luck.

course, Bill should be careful not to give Coke any ideas. We might
end up with a scenario like the following:
Joe: (walking into McDonalds) Hi, i'd like a Big Mac.
Cashier: Okay, here's your Big Mac and here's your Coke.
That'll be $3.99.
J: Uh, i don't want a Coke.
C: Sorry, they're bundled.
J: What? I'm not paying for a Coke!
C: You don't; the Coke is free.
J: But wasn't a Big Mac $2.49 last week?
C: Sure, but this latest Big Mac is far more innovative. It's
got integrated Coke!
J: I already bought a Mountain Dew (ok, ok - Snapple) across the street
I'm not going to drink the Coke.
C: Then you can't have the burger.
J:
C: Oh, you can't do that. They're seamlessly integrated. Totally
inseperable.
J: How can that be? They're two totally seperate things!
C: No, watch. (takes Big Mac, dunks it in a tank of Coke) See?
J: Why did you just do that?!?!
C: It's a benefit to the consumer. Otherwise you'd end up with
two different, inconsistent tastes. This way you're assured of
a continuous taste across all your foods.

It was clear that one day the Ivy League would grow
desperate. The year was 2020, the average tuition (per
year) for each institution was $84,242 and they just
weren't getting enough applicants. So they decided, in a
rash, unprecendented move, to take out advertising in the
middle of Sesame Street episodes, to differentiate
themselves from their competitors. Read on for their
masterful slogans...
BROWN: Hey kids! Is half of your head shaved? Do
you havea nose ring? Are you terribly progressive and do you have a
lot of empathy? Are you sick and tired of silly things
like grades and majors? COME TO BROWN!!!
COLUMBIA: Hey kids! Do you like Harlem? Do you like
commuters? Are you planning on transferring to another Ivy
school after your freshman year? COME TO COLUMBIA!!!
HARVARD: Hey kids! Do you hate teachers? I mean really
hate them? Do you never want to have another teacher
again? And what about a social life? Do you hate that,
too? COME TO HARVARD!!!
PRINCETON: Hey kids! Do you have any idea what an eating
club is? Are you pompous? Can you learn to be? Are you the
smartest person you know? How many clubs were you in in
high school? Have you always dreamed of living in the
great state of New Jersey? COME TO PRINCETON!!!
PENN: Hey kids! Did you like high school a lot?
How aboutfour more years of the same? Are you dying to visit scenic
West Philadelphia? Does the concept of rigorous academics
scare you? COME TO PENN!!!
CORNELL: Hey kids! Do you hate intimacy? Are you
interested in jumping off high places? Have you ever
wanted to converse with future hotel managers? Do you like
bureaucracy? Do you like archaic forms and the chance to
stand in lines with the best and brightest? COME TO
CORNELL -- The Big Red Tape!!!
YALE: Hey kids! Do you want to get shot? COME TO YALE!!!
DARTMOUTH: Hey kids! Do you hate civilization? Looking to
get away from stuff like culture and people? Do you like
to drink? Do you like to drink some more? Do you like to
continue to drink? And what's your feeling on drinking?
COME TO DARTMOUTH!!!
VANDERBILT: Hey kids! Do you like to
sweat? Does binge drinking in your room before you go out
sound like fun? Do you enjoy being around rich blondes and
finding a date to watch a football team that sucks? Come to
Vandy!!!
M.I.T.: Hey kids! Are you a freakish nerd? Do you want to
be? Do you hate doing anything that doesn't involve math?
That's right, math! Math math math math math! COME TO
M.I.T.!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
From an actual newspaper contest where entrants ages 4 to 15 were
asked to imitate "Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey."
I believe you should live each day as if it is your last, which is why I
don't have any clean laundry because, come on, who wants to wash
clothes on the last day of their life?
--Age 15
Give me the strength to change the things I can, the grace to accept the
things I cannot, and a great big bag of money.
--Age 13
It sure would be nice if we got a day off for the president's birthday,
like they do for the queen's. Of course, then we would have a lot of
people voting for a candidate born on July 3 or December 26, just for
the long weekends.
--Age 8
Democracy is a beautiful thing, except for that part about letting just
any old yokel vote.
--Age 10
Home is where the house is.
--Age 6
I bet living in a nudist colony takes all the fun out of Halloween.
--Age 13
I often wonder how come John Tesh isn't as popular a singer as some
people think he should be. Then, I remember it's because he sucks.
--Age 15
For centuries, people thought the moon was made of green cheese.
Then the astronauts found that the moon is really a big hard rock. That's
what happens to cheese when you leave it out.
--Age 6
My younger brother asked me what happens after we die. I told him we
get buried under a bunch of dirt and worms eat our bodies. I guess I
should have told him the truth-that most of us go to hell and burn
eternally-but I didn't want to upset him.
--Age 10
I gaze at the brilliant full moon. The same one, I think to myself, at
which Socrates, Aristotle, and Plato gazed. Suddenly, I imagine they
appear beside me. I tell Socrates about the national debate over one's
right to die and wonder at the constancy of the human condition. I tell
Plato that I live in the country that has come the closest to Utopia, and I
show him a copy of the Constitution. I tell Aristotle that we have
found many more than four basic elements and show him a periodic
table. I get a box of kitchen matches and strike one. They gasp with
wonder. We spend the rest of the night lighting farts.
--Age 15
When I go to heaven, I want to see my grandpa again. But he better
have lost the nose hair and the old-man smell.
--Age 5
I once heard the voice of God. It said "Vrrrrmmmmm." Unless it was
just a lawn mower.
--Age 11
I don't know about you, but I enjoy watching paint dry. I imagine that
the wet paint is a big fresh water lake that is the only source of water
for some tiny cities by the lake. As the lake gets drier, the population
gets more desperate, and sometimes there are water riots. Then there
was a big fire and everyone died.
--Age 13
I like to go down to the dog pound and pretend that I've found my dog.
Then I tell them to kill it anyway because I already gave away all of his
stuff. Dog people sure don't have a sense of humor.
--Age 14
As you make your way through this hectic world of ours, set aside a
few minutes each day. At the end of the year, you'll have a couple of
days saved up.
--Age 7
Often, when I am reading a good book, I stop and thank my teacher.
That is, I used to, until she got an unlisted number.
--Age 15
It would be terrible if the Red Cross Bloodmobile got into an accident.
No, wait. That would be good because if anyone needed it, the blood
would be right there.
--Age 5
Think of the biggest number you can. Now add five. Then, imagine if
you had that many Twinkies. Wow, that's five more than the biggest
number you could come up with!
--Age 6
The only stupid question is the one that is never asked, except maybe
"Don't you think it is about time you audited my return?" or "Isn't it
morally wrong to give me a warning when, in fact, I was speeding?"
--Age 15
Once, I wept for I had no shoes. Then I came upon a man who had no
feet. So I took his shoes. I mean, it's not like he really needed them,
right?
--Age 15
If we could just get everyone to close their eyes and visualize world
peace for an hour, imagine how serene and quiet it would be until the
looting started.
--Age 15
If you throw a cat out the window, is it considered kitty litter?
If a man speaks in the forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he
still wrong?
Why do we drive on parkways, and park on driveways?
If a mute swears, does his mother wash his hands with soap?
If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it
considered a hostage situation?
If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success?
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still
grow? Only to be troubled and insecure?
Is there another word for synonym?
Isn't is it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice"?
When sign makers go on strike, is anything written on their signs?
When you open a bag of cotton balls, is the top one meant to be thrown
away?
Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?
Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
Why do they report power outages on TV?
What do you do when you see an endangered animal that is eating an endangered
plant?
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?
Is it possible to be totally partial?
What's another word for thesaurus?
If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON. how do they make it stick to the pan?
If a parsley farmer is sued, can they garnish his wages?
Would a fly without wings be called a walk?
Why do people who know the least know it the loudest?
If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day. 365 days a year. why are there locks on the
doors?
If the funeral procession is at night, do folks drive with their headlights
off?
If a stealth bomber crashes in a forest, will it make a sound?
If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?
When it rains, why don't sheep shrink?
If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain
silent?
Why is the word abbreviation so long?
When companies ship Styrofoam, what do they pack it in?
If it's tourist season, why can't we shoot them?
Can a fat person go skinny dipping?
Why do you need a drivers licence to buy liquor when you can't drink and

Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
Why are there interstate highways in Hawaii?
Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?
Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when smoking is prohibited there?
Have you ever imagined a world with out hypothetical situations?
How does the guy who drives the snowplow get to work in the morning?
If a cow laughed. would milk come out her nose?
If your in a vehicle going the speed of light. what happens when you turn on
the headlights?
Why do they put braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?
Why is it that when you transport something by car, its called a shipment.

You know that little indestructable black box that is used on planes. Why
dont they make the whole plane out of the same substance?
Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address. you turn down
the volume on the radio?
Jennifer
The day is over, you are driving home. You tune in your radio. You hear a little
blurb about a little village in India where some villagers have died suddenly,
strangely, of a flu that has never been seen before. It's not influenza, but three or
four fellows are dead, and it's kind of interesting, and they're sending some
doctors over there to investigate it.
You don't thing much about it, but on Sunday, coming home from church, you
hear another radio spot. Only they say it's not three villagers, it's 30,000
villagers in the back hills of this particular area of India, and it's on TV that
night. CNN runs a little blurb; people are heading there from the disease center
in Atlanta because this disease strain has never been seen before.
By Monday morning when you get up, it's the lead story. For it's not just India;
it's Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, and before you know it, you're hearing this story
everywhere and they have coined it now as "the mystery flu". The President has
made some comment that he and everyone are praying and hoping that all will
go well over there. But everyone is wondering, "How are we going to contain
it?" That's when the President of France makes an announcement that shocks
Europe. He is closing their borders. No flights from India, Pakistan, or any of
the countries where this thing has been seen.
And that's why that night you are watching a little bit of CNN before going to
bed. Your jaw hits your chest when a weeping woman is translated from a
French news program into English: "There's a man lying in a hospital in Paris
dying of the mystery flu." It has come to Europe. Panic strikes. As best they can
tell, once you get it, you have it for a week and you don't know it. Then you
have four days of unbelievable symptoms. And then you die.
Britain closes it's borders, but it's too late. South Hampton, Liverpool ,North
Hampton, and it's Tuesday morning when the President of the United States
makes the following announcement: "Due to a national security risk, all flights
to and from Europe and Asia have been canceled. If your loved ones are
overseas, I'm sorry. They cannot come back until we find a cure for this thing."
Within four days our nation has been plunged into an unbelievable fear. People
are selling little masks for your face. People are talking about what if it comes to
this country, and preachers on Tuesday are saying, "It's the scourge of God."
It's Wednesday night and you are at a church prayer meeting when somebody
runs in from the parking lot and says, "Turn on a radio, turn on a radio." And
while the church listens to a little transistor radio with a microphone stuck up to
it, the announcement is made. "Two women are lying in a Long Island hospital
dying from the mystery flu." Within hours it seems this thing just sweeps across
the country. People are working around the clock trying to find an antidote.
Nothing is working. California. Oregon. Arizona. Florida. Massachusetts. It's as
though it's just sweeping in from the borders.
And then, all of a sudden the news comes out. The code has been broken. A cure
can be found. A vaccine can be made. It's going to take the blood of somebody
who hasn't been infected, and so, sure enough, all through the Midwest, through
all those channels of emergency broadcasting, everyone is asked to do one
simple thing: "Go to your downtown hospital and have your blood type taken.
That's all we ask of you. And when you hear the sirens go off in your
neighborhood, please make your way quickly, quietly, and safely to the
hospitals."
Sure enough, when you and your family get down there late on that Friday night,
there is a long line, and they've got nurses and doctors coming out and pricking
fingers and taking blood and putting labels on it. Your wife and your kids are
out there, and they take your blood type and they say, "Wait here in the parking
lot and if we call your name, you can be dismissed and go home."
You stand around scared with your neighbors, wondering what in the world is
going on, and that this is the end of the world. Suddenly a young man comes
running out of the hospital screaming. He's yelling a name and waving a
clipboard. What? He yells it again! And your son tugs on your jacket and says,
"Daddy, that's me."
Before you know it, they have grabbed your boy. "Wait a minute, hold it!" And
they say, "It's okay, his blood is clean. His blood is pure. We want to make sure
he doesn't have the disease. We think he has got the right type." Five tense
minutes later, out come the doctors and nurses, crying and hugging one another -
some are even laughing.
It's the first time you have seen anybody laugh in a week, and an old doctor
walks up to you and says, "Thank you, sir. Your son's blood type is perfect It's
clean, it is pure, and we can make the vaccine." As the word begins to spread all
across that parking lot full of folks, people are screaming and praying and
laughing and crying.
But then the gray-haired doctor pulls you and you wife aside and says, "May we
see you for a moment? We didn't realize that the donor would be a minor and we
need . . . we need you to sign a consent form." You begin to sign and then you
see that the number of pints of blood to be taken is empty.
"H-h-h-how many pints?" And that is when the old doctor's smile fades and he
says, " We had no idea it would be a little child. We weren't prepared. We need
it all!" " But - but..." "You don't understand. We are talking about the world
here. Please sign. We - we need it all - we need it all!" "But can't you give him a
transfusion?" "If we had clean blood we would. Can you sign? Would you
sign?"
In numb silence you do. Then they say, "Would you like to have a moment with
him before we begin?"
Can you walk back? Can you walk back to that room where he sits on a table
saying, "Daddy? Mommy? What's going on?" Can you take his hands and say,
"Son, your mommy and I love you, and we would never ever let anything
happen to you that didn't just have to be. Do you understand that?" And when
that old doctor comes back in and says, "I'm sorry, we've - we've got to get
started. People all over the world are dying." Can you leave? Can you walk out
while he is saying, "Dad? Mom? Dad? Why - why have you forsaken me?"
And then next week, when they have the ceremony to honor your son, and some
folks sleep through it, and some folks don't even come because they go to the
lake, and some folks come with a pretentious smile and just pretend to care.
Would you want to jump up and say, "MY SON DIED! DON'T YOU CARE?"
Is that what He wants to say? "MY SON DIED. DON'T YOU KNOW HOW
MUCH I CARE?"
"Father, seeing it from your eyes breaks our hearts. Maybe now we can begin to
comprehend the great love you have for us. Amen."
Jesus vs. Satan
Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on
his computer. They had been going at it for days, and God was tired of
hearing all of the bickering. Finally God said, "Cool it. I am going to
set up a test that will run two hours and I will judge who does the better
job."
So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away. They moused.
They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports. They sent faxes. They sent
e-mail. They sent out e-mail with attachments. They downloaded. They did
some genealogy reports. They made cards. They did every known job.
But ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed
across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, the
electricity went off. Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every
curse word known in the Underworld. Jesus just sighed.
The electricity finally flickered back on, and each of them restarted
their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming "It's
gone! It's gone! I lost everything when the power went out!"
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the
past two hours. Satan observed this and became irate. "Wait! He cheated!
How did he do it?"
God shrugged and said, "Jesus Saves."

The answer to the eternal question "Is it better to be a jock or a
nerd?"
Michael Jordan makes over $300,000 a game. That equals
$10,000 a minute, at an average of 30 minutes per game. With
$40 million in endorsements, he makes $178,100 a day,
working or not.
If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night
while vision of sugarplums dance in his head.
