hUMOR For August 31st

********************************
A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in
Africa, taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles along
for company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies, and before
long, Cuddles discovers that she's lost. Wandering about,
she notices a leopard heading rapidly in her direction with
the intention of having lunch.

The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep trouble now!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, she immediately settles down to chew on the bones with her back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the old poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in
mid-strike. A look of terror comes over him and he slinks
away into the trees. "Whew!" says the leopard. "That was
close! That old poodle nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene
from a nearby tree figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans, and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and
says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!"

Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey
on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?" but instead of running, the dog sits down with her back to her attackers, pretending she hasn't seen them yet. Just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says: "Where's that monkey? I can never trust him. I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard, and he's still not back!"

Scavenger Hunt
A woman answered her front door and saw a little boy holding a list. "Ma'am," he explained, "I'm on a scavenger hunt, and I still need three grains of wheat, a pork-chop bone and a piece of used carbon paper to earn a dollar."
"Wow," the woman replied. "Who sent you on such a challenging hunt?"
"My babysitter's boyfriend."

"Trial by jury is the palladium of our liberties. I do not know what a palladium is, but I am sure it is a good thing!" - Mark Twain
********************************
Here is today's Illustration. - The Law
Most of these are certainly outdated. But it's funny to think they ever were laws.
- In Michigan, a woman isn't allowed to cut her own hair without her husband's permission.
- In New York, it is against the law to throw a ball at someone's head for fun.
- In order for a pickle to officially be considered a pickle in Connecticut, it must bounce.
- To keep any of the incarcerated beasts from picking up bad habits, the town of Manville, NJ decreed that it is illegal to feed whiskey or offer cigarettes to animals at the local zoo.
- If you sell hollow logs in Tennessee, you are breaking the law.
- Compulsive gamblers stay out of Richmond, VA: it is even illegal to flip a coin in a restaurant to see who pays for the coffee.
- Don't bother the butterflies in Pacific Grove, CA unless you have an extra $500 for the offense.
- The same is true for bullfrogs and cottontails in Hayden, AZ. where disturbing them in the city limits is against the law.
- Have it your way, but don't share it in OK. This state forbids a person from taking a bite out of another person's hamburger.
- Need a radio on Sunday? In Spokane, WA, you can buy one on the Sabbath, but forget about purchasing a television!
- In the state of New York, you need a license to use a clothesline outdoors.
- If any retirees from the circus are thinking about settling down and farming in NC, they are forwarned right here and now that it is against the law in this state to use elephants to plow cotton fields!
- It is illegal to take more than 2 baths a month within Boston confines.
- In Calgary there is a by-law that is still on the books that requires businesses within the city to provide rails for tying up horses.
- In the England it is illegal to sell most goods on a Sunday, (this law is mostly ignored), it is however legal to sell a carrot. It is also legal to sell it at any price and to give free gifts with it, such as anything else one might want to buy on a Sunday!

Worker Ants
The teacher was giving her class of seven-year-olds a natural history lesson. "Worker ants," she told them, "can carry pieces of food five times their own weight. What do you conclude from that?"
One child was ready with the answer: "They don't have a union."

Here is today's CleanPun. - Church Drive
A friend of mine bought a new car that sported an on-board computer. One Sunday morning when he got into the car to drive to church, the digital display lit up. Glancing at the readout, he chuckled at the announcement:
"Time for service."
********************************
A couple had been debating the purchase of a new auto for weeks. He wanted a new truck. She wanted a fast little sports-like car so she could zip through traffic around town.

He would probably have settled on any beat-up old truck, but everything she seemed to like was way out of their price range.

"Look!" she said. "I want something that goes from 0 to 200
in 4 seconds or less. And my birthday is coming up. You
could surprise me."

For her birthday, he bought her a brand new bathroom scale.

Nobody has seen or heard from him since.
********************************
A rich man went to his vicar and said, "I want you and your wife to take a three-month trip to the Holy Land at my expense. When you come back, I'll have a surprise for you". The vicar accepted the offer, and he and his wife went off to the Middle East.
Three months later they returned home and were met by the wealthy parishioner, who told them that while they were gone, he had had a new church built. "It's the finest building money can buy, vicar," said the man. "No expense was spared." And he was right. It was a magnificent edifice both outside and in.
But there was one striking difference. There was only one pew, and it was at the very back. "A church with only one pew?" asked the vicar.
"You just wait until Sunday," the rich man said.
When the time came for the Sunday service, the early arrivals entered the church, filed onto the one pew and sat down. When the pew was full, a switch clicked silently, a circuit closed, the gears meshed, a belt moved and, automatically, the rear pew began to move forward. When it reached the front of the church, it came to a stop. At the same time, another empty pew came up from below at the back and more people sat down. And so it continued, pews filling and moving forwards until finally the church was full, from front to back.
"Wonderful!" said the vicar, "Marvelous!"
The service began, and the vicar started to preach his sermon. He launched into his text and, when 12 o'clock came, he was still going strong, with no end in sight. Suddenly a bell rang, and a trap door in the floor behind the pulpit dropped open.
"Wonderful!" said the congregation, "Marvelous!"
********************************
The TRUTH about Barbecuing

Barbecuing is the only type of cooking a real man will
do. When a man declares he will BBQ the following
chain of events is put into motion:

1) The woman goes to the store and buys everything.

2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.

3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it
on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils
and sauces, and takes it to the man, who is lounging
beside the grill, beverage in hand.

4) The man places the meat on the grill.

5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and
cutlery.

6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat
is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring
another beverage while he deals with the situation.

7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it
to the woman.

8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to
the table.

9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does
the dishes.

10) Everyone praises man and thanks him for his
cooking efforts.

11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed; her night
off. And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes
that there's just no pleasing a woman.
********************************
Police Baste

A State Police colleague of mine once received a call from a woman
who asked him how to baste a turkey. After a stunned moment, he,
being a fairly good cook, described the procedure. Then he asked,
"But why would you call the State Police to find out how to baste a turkey?"

There was only a slight hesitation before she replied, "Well, you
knew, didn't you?" and hung up.

hUMOR For August 29th

When Your Hut's on Fire....

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a
small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for
God to rescue him. Every day he scanned the horizon
for help, but none seemed forthcoming. Exhausted, he
eventually managed to build a little hut out of
driftwood to protect himself from the elements, and to
store his few possessions. One day, after scavenging
for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in
flames, with smoke rolling up to the sky. He felt the
worst had happened, and everything was lost.

He was stunned with disbelief, grief, and anger. He
cried out, "God! How could you do this to me?" Early
the next day, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island! It had come to rescue him! "How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.

The Moral of This Story: It's easy to get discouraged
when things are going bad, but we shouldn't lose
heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in
the midst of our pain and suffering. Remember that the
next time your little hut seems to be burning to the
ground. It just may be a smoke signal that summons the
Grace of God.

P.S. You may want to consider passing this on, because
you never know who feels as if their hut is on fire
today.
********************************
One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed a little boy staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. The seven- year-old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the boy, and said quietly, "Good morning son."
"Good morning pastor" replied the young man, focused on the plaque.
"Sir, what is this?" the boy asked.
"Well son, these are all the people who have died in the service," replied the pastor.
Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque.
The little boy's voice barely broke the silence when he asked quietly, "Which one sir, the 8:30 or the 10:30 service?"

My sister-in-law shrieks whenever she sees a bug. She and my brother were out driving one day, and she started screaming, "A bug! a bug!"

An elderly man was sued by his neighbor for defamation of character. She charged that he had called her a pig. The man was found guilty and fined.
After the trial the man approached the judge, "Does this mean that I cannot call Mrs. Johnson a pig?"
The judge replied, "That is true."
"Does this mean I cannot call a pig Mrs. Johnson?" the man asked.
The judge replied that he could indeed call a pig whatever he wanted with no fear of legal action.
The elderly gent looked directly at Mrs. Johnson and said, "Good afternoon, Mrs. Johnson."

He picks the jury by playing "duck-duck-goose."
During the trial you catch him playing his Gameboy.
A prison guard is shaving your head.
Every couple of minutes he yells, "I call Jack Daniels to the stand!" and proceeds to drink a shot.
He places a large "No Refunds" sign on the defense table.
He begins closing arguments with, "As Ally McBeal once said..."
He keeps citing the legal case of Godzilla v. Mothra.
Just before trial starts he whispers, "The judge is the one with the little hammer, right?"
Just before he says "Your Honor," he makes those little quotation marks in the air with his fingers.
The sign in front of his law office reads "Practicing Law Since 2:25 PM."
Whenever his objection is overruled, he tells the judge, "Whatever."
He giggles every time he hears the word "briefs."
********************************
An old man was on his death bed. He wanted badly to take all his money with him. He called his priest, his doctor and his lawyer to his bedside. "Here's $30,000 cash to be held by each of you. I trust you to put this in my coffin when I die so I can take all my money with me."
At the funeral, each man put an envelope in the coffin. Riding away in a limousine, the priest suddenly broke into tears and confessed that he had only put $20,000 into the envelope because he needed $10,000 for a new baptistery.
"Well, since we're confiding in each other," said the doctor, "I only put $10,000 in the envelope because we needed a new machine at the hospital which cost $20,000."
The lawyer was aghast. "I'm ashamed of both of you," he exclaimed. "I want it known that when I put my envelope in that coffin, it held my personal check for the full $30,000."

As a crowded airliner is about to take off, the peace is shattered by a 5-year-old boy who picks that moment to throw a wild temper tantrum. No matter what his frustrated, embarrassed mother does to try to calm him down, the boy continues to scream furiously and kick the seats around him.
Suddenly, from the rear of the plane, an elderly man in the uniform of an Air Force General is seen slowly walking forward up the aisle. Stopping the flustered mother with an upraised hand, the white-haired, courtly, soft-spoken General leans down and, motioning toward his chest, whispers something into the boy's ear.
Instantly, the boy calms down, gently takes his mother's hand, and quietly fastens his seat belt. All the other passengers burst into spontaneous applause.
As the General slowly makes his way back to his seat, one of the cabin attendants touches his sleeve. "Excuse me, General," she asks quietly, "but could I ask you what magic words you used on that little boy?"
The old man smiles serenely and gently confides, "I showed him my pilot's wings, service stars, and battle ribbons, and explained that they entitle me to throw one passenger out the plane door on any flight I choose."

I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape,
so I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club

Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came
up to the very elderly widow and asked, "How old
was your husband?"

"98," she replied.

"Two years older than me."

"So you're 96," the undertaker commented.

She responded, "Hardly worth going home is it?"
------------------------------------------
I've sure gotten old. I've had 2 By-pass surgeries. A
hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer,
and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything
quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different
medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor
circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore,
can't remember if I'm 85 or 92, have lost all my
friends. But.....Thank God, I still have my driver's
license!

******************************************************

In the long tradition of political correctness and
sensitivity that has so characterized all of our
jokes, we offer this one (sent our way by PW)...

WHY IS IT THAT???

Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to pick up a
woman? Because a woman who can't even afford a
washing machine will probably never be able to support
you.

Why do women have smaller feet than men? It's one of
those "evolutionary things" that allows them to stand
closer to the kitchen sink.

How do you know when a woman is about to say something
smart? When she starts her sentence with "A man once
told me..."

How do you fix a woman's watch? You don't. There is a
clock on the oven.

Why do men have more pressure than women? Because
women can't shut up long enough to build up the
required pressure.

If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife
is yelling at the front door, who do you let in first?
The dog of course. He'll shut up once you let him in.

What's worse than a Male Chauvinist Pig? A woman that
won't do what she's told.

I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her first
name was Always.

I haven't spoken to my wife for 18 months: I don't
like to interrupt her.

What do you call a woman who has lost 95% of her
intelligence? Divorced.

Marriage is a 3 ring circus: Engagement Ring, Wedding
ring, Suffer-Ring.

Our last fight was my fault: My wife asked me "What's
on the TV?" I said, "Dust!"

In the beginning, God created the earth and rested.
Then God created Man and rested. Then God created
Woman. Since then, neither God nor Man has rested.

Why do men die before their wives? They want to.

"Ed, you take that one on the left, the little cub with a broken leg. I'll take the one in the middle, the little cub with one eye and a hurt paw. Joe, you take the one on the right, the mama bear."
Joe looked and saw a huge silvertip grizzly bear with big teeth and froth around her mouth.

Two men were out hunting in the woods. One of them was
a fanatical huntsman: he went hunting as often as he
could. The other was his friend: a peaceful nature
loving fellow, who didn't really want to hurt
anything.

They had been out in the woods for some time, when
they picked up the tracks of a deer. They soon caught
up with it, and when they saw it, it was obvious why
it had been so easy to catch up to: it had a terrible
infection over it's left eye, which it couldn't even
see out of.

The hunter started to take aim with his shotgun, but
his friend begged him to stop.

He said, "Can't you see that's a bad eye deer?"

The blond opened his lunch and said, "Bologna again! If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too."

The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito, and jumped, too.
The blonde guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna and jumped to his death as well.

The Lone Ranger and Tonto go camping in the desert, they set up their tent, and go to sleep. Some hours later, The Lone Ranger wakes his faithful friend."Tonto, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."Tonto replies, "Me see millions of stars.""What does that tell you?" ask The Lone Ranger.Tonto ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.

As the coals from our barbecue burned down, our hosts passed out marshmallows and long roasting forks.
Just then, two fire trucks roared by, sirens blaring, lights flashing. They stopped at a house right down the block.
All twelve of us raced out of the back yard, down the street, where we found the owners of the blazing house standing by helplessly.
They glared at us with looks of disgust.
Suddenly, we realized why.........
we were all still holding our roasting forks with marshmallows on them.

Surgeons invited to dinner parties are often asked to carve
the meat -- or worse yet, to watch the host carve while commenting on the surgeon's occupation.

At one party, a surgeon friend was watching the carving
while Harry, his host, kept up a running commentary: "How am
I doing, doc? How do you like that technique? I'd make a
pretty good surgeon, don't you think?"

When the host finished and the slices of meat lay neatly on
the serving platter, the surgeon spoke up: "Anybody can take them apart, Harry. Now let's see you put them back together again."

A man walked into a bar and ordered a glass of white wine.
He took a sip of the wine, then tossed the remainder into

from the surprise, the man began weeping.

"I'm sorry," he said. "I'm really sorry. I keep doing that
to bartenders. I can't tell you how embarrassing it is to
have a compulsion like this."

Far from being angry, the bartender was sympathetic. Before long, he was suggesting that the man see an analyst about his problem. "I happen to have the name of a psychoanalyst," the bartender said. "My brother and my wife have both been treated by him, and they say he's as good as they get."

The man wrote down the name of the doctor, thanked the bartender, and left. The bartender smiled, knowing he'd done a good deed for a fellow human being.

Six months later, the man was back. "Did you do what I suggested?" the bartender asked, once again serving the man a glass of white wine.

"I certainly did," the man said. "I've been seeing the psychoanalyst twice a week." He took a sip of the wine. Then he threw the remainder into the bartender's face.

The flustered bartender wiped his face with a towel. "The doctor doesn't seem to be doing you any good," he sputtered.

"On the contrary," the man claimed, "he's done me a world of good."

"But you threw the wine in my face again!" the bartender exclaimed.

"Yes," the man replied. "But it doesn't embarrass me
anymore!"

Religious Differences

A little boy was walking down a dirt road after church
one Sunday afternoon when he came to a crossroads
where he met a little girl coming from the other
direction.

"Hello," said the little boy.

"Hi," replied the little girl.

"Where are you going?" asked the little boy.

"I've been to church this morning and I'm on my way
home," answered the little girl.

"Me too," replied the little boy. "I'm also on my way
home from church."

"Which church do you go to?" asked the little boy.

"I go to the Baptist church back down the road,"
replied the little girl. "What about you?"

"I go to the Catholic church back at the top of the
hill," replied the little boy.

They discovered that they are both going the same way
so they decided that they'd walk together. They came
to a low spot in the road where spring rains had
partially flooded the road so there was no way that
they could get across to the other side without
getting wet. "If I get my new Sunday dress wet my
Mom's going to skin me alive," said the little girl.

"My Mom'll tan my hide too if I get my new Sunday suit
wet," replied the little boy.

"I tell you what I think I'll do," said the little
girl. "I'm gonna pull off all my clothes and hold them
over my head and wade across."

"That's a good idea," replied the little boy. "I'm
going to do the same thing with my suit."

So they both undressed and waded across to the other
side without getting their clothes wet. They were
standing there in the sun waiting to drip dry before
putting their clothes back on when the little boy
finally remarked, "You know, I never did realize
before just how much difference there really is
between a Baptist and a Catholic."

Nun Out Of Gas

(I just thought this was very timely, with the price of gas these days!)

A young Nun who worked for a local home health care agency was out making her rounds when she ran out of gas.

As luck would have it, there was a gas station just one block away.

She walked to the station to borrow a can with enough gas to start the car and drive to the station for a fill up.

The attendant regretfully told her that the only gas can he owned had just been loaned out, but if she would care to wait he was sure it would be back shortly.

Since the Nun was on the way to see a patient, she decided not to wait and walked back to her car. After looking through her car for something to carry to the station to fill with gas, she spotted a bedpan she was taking to the patient.

Always resourceful, she carried it to the station, filled it with gasoline, and carried it back to her car. As she was pouring the gas into the tank of her car, two men watched her from across the street.

One of them turned to the other and said: "I know that it is said that Jesus turned water into wine, but if that car starts, I'm going to church every Sunday for the rest of my life."

Your face in the window when I''d drive away,
How you'd greet me at the door at the end of the day.

At your expense how I laughed it up
Like how everything scared you when you were a pup...

When you ran from that "monster" to no avail
It was only a branch that was caught in your tail...

Or the 4th of July when the fireworks flared
How you hid in the bathtub because you were scared.

Dog hair on my pants, on my shirt, on my sock,
Your ferocious loud bark when somebody's knock.

How each night you faithfully slept by my bed,
How I''d reach from the covers and I'd scratch your
head.

When the end finally came, with tear-filled eyes
I kissed y ou and lovingly said my goodbyes.

I held you in my arms ''til the very end.
Now your absence is painful. I miss you, dear friend.

Although I was your owner right from the start,
You were really the Master, for you owned my heart.

Consider all the changes we have witnessed ...We were born before television, before penicillin, beforepolio shots, before frozen foods, plastics, Xerox, contactlens, Frisbees and the PILL.We were born before radar, credit cards, split atoms, laserbeams, and ball point pens, and before panty hose,dishwashers, clothes dryers, electric blankets, airconditioners, drip-dry clothes and before man walked on themoon. We got married first and then lived together. Howquaint can you be? In our time closets were for clothes, notcoming out of. Bunnies were small rabbits and rabbits werenot Volkswagens. Designer Jeans were scheming girls namedJean or Jeannie, and having a meaningful relationship meantgetting along with your cousin.We thought fast food was what you ate during Lent, and outerSpace was the back of Loews Theatre. We were born beforehouse-husbands, gay rights, computer dating, and dualcareers. We never heard of FM radio, tape decks, electrictypewriters, artificial hearts, word processors, or guyswearing ear rings. For us time sharing meant togethernessand hardware and software weren't even words.In 1939 "made in Japan" meant junk and the term "making out"referred to how you did on your exam. Pizzas, MacDonalds andinstant coffee were unheard of. We hit the scene when therewere 5 and 10 cent stores, where you bought things for 5 and10 cents. For a nickel you could ride on the street car,make a phone call, but a Pepsi or enough stamps to mail oneletter or 2 post cards, and gas for your car (if you hadone) was 11 cents a gallon.In our day GRASS was mowed, COKE was a cold drink, and POTwas something you cooked in. ROCK MUSIC was Grandma'slullaby and AIDS were helpers in the Principal's office. Wewere certainly not before the differences between the sexeswas discovered, but were surely before the sex change. And,we were the last generation that was so dumb as to think youneeded a husband to have a baby. No wonder we are soconfused and there is such a generation gap today.BUT WE SURVIVED!!!

A grade school teacher in Kentucky asked her students to use the word
"fascinate" in a sentence.

Molly put up her hand and said, "My family went to my granddad's farm,
and
we all saw his pet sheep. It was fascinating."

The teacher said, "That was good, but I wanted you to use the word
"fascinate, not fascinating".

Sally raised her hand. She said, "My family went to see Rock City and I
was
fascinated."

The teacher said, "Well, that was good Sally, but I wanted you to use the
word "fascinate."

Little Johnny raised his hand. The teacher hesitated because she had been
burned by Little Johnny before. She finally decided there was no way he
could damage the word "fascinate," so she called on him.

Johnny said, "My aunt Gina has a sweater with ten buttons, but her boobs
are
so big she can only fasten eight."

The teacher cried.

Prison Riot

The warden, addressing the three instigators of a failed prison riot, said,
"I would like to know two things.

First: Why did you revolt?

Second: How did you get out of your cell?"

One of the three men stepped forward, "Warden, we rebelled because the food
is awful."

"I see. And what did you use to break the bars?" the warden asked.

Replied the spokesman, "French Toast..."

Deep In Prayer

A man walking along a California beach was deep in
prayer. Suddenly, the sky clouded above his head and,
in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have
TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant
you one wish."

The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive
over anytime I want."

The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic.
Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of
undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom
of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take!
It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I
can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your
desire for worldly things. Take a little more time
and think of something that would honor and glorify
me."

The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he
said, "Lord, I wish that I could understand my wife.
I want to know how she feels inside, what she's
thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why
she cries, what she means when she says nothing's
wrong, and how I can make a woman truly happy."

The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that
bridge?"

Phone

There are several men sitting around in the locker

cell phone on one of the benches rings. One of the men
picks it up, and the following conversation ensues:

"Hello?"

"Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"

"Yes."

"Great! I am at the mall two blocks from where you
are. I just saw a beautiful mink coat. It's absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy it?"

"What's the price?"

"Only $1,500.00."

"Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that
much ... "

"Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership
and saw the 2001 models. I saw one I really liked. I
spoke with the salesman, and he gave me a really good
price ... and since we need to exchange the BMW that
we bought last year ... "

"What price did he quote you?"

"Only $60,000 ... "

"OK, but for that price I want it with all the
options."

"Great! But before we hang up, something else ... "

"What?"

"It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your
bank account and I stopped by the real estate agent
this morning and saw the house we had looked at last
year. It's on sale!! Remember? The one with a pool,
English Garden, acre of park area, beachfront property
... "

"How much are they asking?"

"Only $450,000 - a magnificent price ... and I see
that we have that much in the bank to cover ... "

"Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid
$420,000. OK?"

"OK, sweetie ... Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love
you!!!"

"Bye ... I do too ... "

The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap, and raises
his hand while holding the phone and asks to all those
present: "Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?

18 Wheeler
There was a man driving down the road behind an 18 wheeler, at every stoplight the trucker would get out of the cab, run back and bang on the trailer door. After seeing this at several intersections in a row the motorist followed him until he pulled into a parking lot.
When they both had come to a stop the truck driver once again jumped out and started banging on the trailer door. The motorist went up to him and said, "I don't mean to be nosey but why do you keep banging on that door?"
To which the trucker replied, "Sorry, can't talk now, I have 20 tons of canaries and a 10 ton limit, I have to keep half of them in the air all the time!"

The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the edge offyour appetite and you'll eat less.A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of caloriesin one place. Isn't that handy?If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer. But ifyou can't eat all your chocolate, what is wrong with you?If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge.Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolateto protect themselves.If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that abalanced diet?Money talks. Chocolate sings.Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.Q. Why is there no such organization as Chocoholics Anonymous?A. Because no one wants to quit.If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top pantyhose.An entire garment industry would be devastated.Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today.

"Geezers" (slang for an old man) are
easy to spot:

At sporting events, during the playing of the National

Old Geezers remember World War I, the Depression,
World War II, Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Normandy and
Hitler. They remember the Atomic Age,the Korean War,
The Cold War, the Jet Age and the Moon Landing, not to
mention Vietnam.

If you bump into an Old Geezer on the sidewalk,he will apologize. If you pass an Old Geezer on the street, he will nod or tip his cap to a lady. Old Geezers trust strangers and are courtly to women. Old Geezers hold the door for the next person and always, when walking, make certain the lady is on the inside for protection.


Old Geezers get embarrassed if someone curses in front
of women and children and they don't like any filth on
TV or in movies

Old Geezers have moral courage. They seldom brag
unless it's about their grandchildren.

It's the Old Geezers who know our great country is
protected, not by politicians or police, but by the
young men and women in the military serving their
country.

This country needs Old Geezers with their decent
values. We need them now more than ever.

Thank God for Old Geezers!

005 Revised Bill of Rights

The following has been attributed to State
Representative Mitchell Kaye from Georgia. This guy
should run for President one day . .

"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an
attempt to help everyone get along, restore some
semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our
nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby TRY ONE MORE TIME to ordain and establish some common-sense guidelines for the terminally whiney, guilt-ridden, delusional, and other bed-wetters.

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that a whole
lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and
are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights as such:

ARTICLE I: You do NOT have the right to a new car,
big-screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power
to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II: You do NOT have the right to never be
offended. This country is based on freedom, and that
means freedom for everyone--not just you! You may
leave the room, turn the channel, express a different
opinion, etc.; but the world if full of idiots, and
probably always will be.

ARTICLE III: You do NOT have the right to be free
from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye,
learn to be more careful, do not expect the tool
manufacturer to make you and all your relatives
independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV: You do NOT have the right to free food
and housing. Americans are the most charitable people
to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but
we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation
after generation of professional couch potatoes who
achieve nothing more than the creation of another
generation of professional couch potatoes.

ARTICLE V: You do NOT have the right to free health
care. That would be nice, but from the looks of
public housing, we are not interested in public health
care.

ARTICLE VI: You do NOT have the right to physically
harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally
maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest
of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII: You do NOT have the right to the
possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce
away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure.

ARTICLE VIII: You do NOT have the right to a job.
All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly
help you along in hard times, but we expect you to
take advantage of the opportunities of education and

ARTICLE IX: You do NOT have the right to happiness.
Being an American means that you have the right to
PURSUE happiness, which by the way, is a lot easier if
you are unencumbered by an over-abundance of idiotic
laws created by those of you who were confused by the
Bill of Rights.

ARTICLE X: This is an English-speaking country. We
don't care where you are from, English is our
language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came
from!

(lastly . . . )

ARTICLE XI: You do NOT have the right to change our
country's history or heritage. This country was
founded on the belief in one true God. And yet, you
are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any
faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of
persecution. The phrase "IN GOD WE TRUST" is part of
our heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable
with it, TOUGH!

There was only a slight hesitation before she replied, "Well, you knew, didn't you?" and hung up.

"It's so beautiful here in the winter," he said, "that heaven doesn't interest them." Then he added, "And it's so hot here in the summer that hades doesn't scare them!"
