A honeymoon couple is in the Watergate Hotel. The new bride is
concerned and asked, “What if the place is still bugged?”
The groom
says “Hmm... Good point. I’ll look for a bug.”
He looks behind the
drapes, behind the pictures, under the rug... “AHA!” he
shouts!
Sure enough, under the rug was a small disc shaped plate, with
four screws. He gets his Swiss army knife, unscrews the screws, throws
them and the plate out the window.
The next morning, the hotel
manager asks the newlyweds “How was your room? How was the service?
How was your stay at the Watergate Hotel?”
Curious, the groom says, “And
why, sir, are you asking me all of these questions?”
The hotel
manager says “Well, the room UNDER yours complained of the chandelier
falling on
them!” <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> I
got even with my parents. My parents came to stay with me for the
weekend in my apartment. I made them sleep in separate bedrooms. My
mother said, “What? Are you crazy? I’ve been sleeping with this man
for years.” I said, “Look, I don’t care what you do on the outside.
But when you’re in my
house...” <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Following a campaign speech, a young man rushed up to Senator Everett
Dirksen and said, “Senator, I wouldn’t vote for you if you were St.
Peter!”
Dirksen eyed the young man for a moment, then said: “Son, if
I were St. Peter, you couldn’t vote for me, because you wouldn’t be in
my
district.” <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Students
at school were asked to write about the harmful effects of oil on
fish. One 11-year old wrote, “When my mom opened a tin of sardines
last night it was full of oil and all the sardines were
dead.” <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
After much urging by his wife, my Uncle Joe applied for work on a
farm. The foreman decided to give him a try and told him to milk a
cow, equipping him with a stool and a
bucket.
An hour
later Uncle Joe returned dirty and sweaty, the bucket in one hand and
the broken stool in the
other.
“Extracting the
milk was easy,” he explained. “The worst part was getting the
cow to sit on the
stool!”

Doug
and Tammy were about to celebrate their 20 year anniversary but
instead they had an awful fight and went to bed that night not saying
a word to each other.
The next morning, Doug felt really
bad about the argument and apologized to Tammy, hoping to smooth
things over. “Honey” he said, “I’m really sorry I ruined ouR
anniversary. Please forgive me.”
Tammy said, “Okay, you’re
forgiven, yet again”. Doug asked, “You’re the best babe. You don’t regret
marrying me, do you?”
Tammy sighed, “Every second
of my
life!” <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> A
blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. She rolled the dice and
she landed on Science & Nature. Her question was, "If you are in a
vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?"
She
thought for a time and then asked, "Is it on or
off?" <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front of his
office, ready to show it off to his colleagues.
As he got out,
a truck passed too close and completely tore off the door on the
driver's side of the Lexus.
The counselor immediately grabbed his
cell phone, dialed 911, and within minutes a policeman pulled
up.
Before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the
lawyer started screaming hysterically. His Lexus, which he had just
picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be
the same, no matter what the body shop did to it.
When
the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer
shook his head in disgust and disbelief. "I can't believe how
materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your
possessions that you don't notice anything else."
"How can you
say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.
The cop replied, "Don't you
know that your left arm is missing from the elbow down? It must have
been torn off when the truck hit you."
"My God!" screamed the
lawyer. "Where's my
Rolex?!" <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> A
man goes into a restaurant and is seated. All the waitresses are
gorgeous. A particularly voluptuous waitress wearing a very short
skirt came to his table and asked if he was ready to order, "What
would you like, sir?"
He looks at the menu and then
scans her beautiful frame top to bottom, then answers, "A
quickie."
The waitress turns and walks away in disgust. After she
regains her composure she returns and asks again, "What would you
like, sir?"
Again the man thoroughly looks her over and, again,
answers, "A quickie, please."
This time her anger takes
over. She reaches over and slaps him across the face with a resounding
"SMACK!" and storms away.
A man sitting at the next table leans
over and whispers, "Um, Pal, I think it's pronounced
'quiche'." <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> In
most offices, the photocopier is out of order every now and then. One
copy repairman had answered question after question for the employees.
Finally one day, he just smiled and handed them this sheet.
The
copier is out of order! Yes, we have called the service man.
Yes, he will be in today. No, we cannot fix it. No, we do
not know how long it will take. No, we do not know what caused
it. No, we do not know who broke it. Yes, we are keeping
it. No, we do not know what you are going to do now.
Thank

How to Satisfy a
Man Every Time
Show up.....
naked. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> An
old man goes to a diner every day for lunch. He always orders the soup
du jour. One day the manager asks him how he liked his meal. The old
man replies, in a thick acccent, "Wass goot, but you could give a
little more bread."
So the next day the manager tells the
waitress to give him four slices of bread. "How was your meal, sir?"
the manager asks. "Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread,"
comes the reply.
So the next day the manager tells the waitress to
give him eight slices of bread. "How was your meal today, sir?" the
manager asks. "Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread,"
comes the reply.
So ... the next day the manager tells the
waitress to give him a whole loaf of bread with his soup. "How was
your meal, sir?" the manager asks, when he comes to pay. "Wass goot,
but you could give just a little more bread," comes the reply once
again.
The manager is now obsessed with seeing this customer say
that he is satisfied with his meal, so he goes to the bakery, and
orders a six-foot-long loaf of bread. When the man comes in as usual
the next day, the waitress and the manager cut the loaf in half,
butter the entire length of each half, and lay it out along the
counter, right next to his bowl of soup. The old man sits down, and
devours both his bowl of soup, and both halves of the six-foot-long
loaf of bread.
The manager now thinks he will get the answer he is
looking for, and when the old man comes up to pay for his meal, the
manager asks in the usual way: "How was your meal TODAY,
sir?"
The old man replies: "It wass goot as usual, but I see you
are back to giving only two slices of
bread." <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Jim
had an awful day fishing on the lake, sitting in the blazing sun all
day without catching a single one. On his way home, he stopped at the
supermarket and ordered four catfish. He told the fish salesman, "Pick
four large ones out and throw them at me, will you?"
"Why do you
want me to throw them at you?"
"Because I want to tell my wife
that I caught them."
"Okay, but I suggest that you take the orange
roughy."
"But why?"
"Because your wife came in
earlier today and said that if you came by, I should tell you to take
orange roughy. She prefers that for supper
tonight." <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> A
girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs,
and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying
that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex.
Her friend
said, "Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?"
"Isn't it
obvious?" the second blonde responded. "They're watch
dogs!" <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Three
Pastors in the south were having lunch in a diner.
One said,
"Since summer started I've been having trouble with bats in my loft
and attic at church. I've tried everything--noise, spray,
cats--nothing seems to scare them away."
Another said, "Me
too. I've got hundreds living in my belfry and in the narthex attic.
I've even had the place fumigated, and they won't go
away."
The third said, "I baptized all mine, and made them
members of the church. Haven't seen one back
since." <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Fred

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A
young doctor who had instructed a class of women in first aid for several weeks
resolved to put his teaching to a practical test. As he stood on the platform he
suddenly paused, staggered and then fell to the floor. A wave of horror ran
through the class. Some women gave faint screams, some rose and sank back into
their seats again; but nobody came to the rescue of the prostate
doctor.
After a few minutes he got to his feet and soundly berated his
students for their lack of initiative. "What use is my teaching," he demanded,
"if you can't tackle a simple fainting spell?"
His star pupil rose from
her front seat with an injured air. "But, doctor," she exclaimed, "we thought it
was a REAL faint!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Alex walked
into his dad's study while his dad was working on the computer.
"Dad,"

Dad nodded.
"Well, the good news is that
I just saved you twenty-five
bucks." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Halloween, I've been known to
hand out games, pens, pads of paper or gift certificates instead of candy. Last
year, noticing a runny nose on one of my trick-or-treaters, I offered a tissue

appeared on the scene. One of the newcomers exclaimed, "Oh, no, she's giving out

fireman. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ John D. Rockefeller, Jr., one day left
Williamsburg for New York and suddenly remembered he had overlooked something.
He called Williamsburg collect from a payphone, but his dime was not

"Do you want me to assign you an attorney?"
asked the presiding judge.
"No, sir," said the defendant.
"But you

services," said the jurist.
"If it's all the same with you," said the
defendant, "I'd like to throw myself upon the ignorance of the court."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There
is a story that Mussolini was once stranded in a small town in Italy when his
car broke down. To pass the time, he visited a local movie house. Came the
newsreel, and, of course, his own face flashed up on the screen.
Everyone
in the movie house stood up, but Mussolini, feeling tired and feeling no
compulsion to stand in his own honor, remained seated. Whereupon the man next to
him whispered, "I feel exactly as you do, but take my advice and stand up. It's
safer." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A deputation of women came to Winston
Churchill in order to protest his overconsumption of spiritous liquors. They
said, "Mr. Churchill, if all the spirits you have drunk in your life were poured
into this room, they would fill it up to here."
Churchill regarded the
imaginary line they had traced on the wall, and his eyes then went up to the
ceiling, and he sighed, "So much to do; so little done."

**** HEALTH NEWS **** Fruit helps satisfy sweet tooth
OXFORD, England, -- Satisfying a sweet tooth with fruit
can promote healthier eating and fight obesity, the author of
a study on eating habits says. People who like sweets tend
to eat more fruit than people who like salty and spicy
foods, researchers from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y.,
report in the July issue of the research journal, Appetite,
which specializes in behavioral nutrition. And people who
like fruit tend to eat more sweets than vegetable lovers,
the researchers say. "Understanding these taste or
preference co-variances ... helps us better understand what
drives the consumption frequency of various foods," writes lead
author Brian Wansink, a Cornell marketing professor
specializing in food marketing and food psychology. Correlating
people's tastes in one type of food with other types of foods
can help marketers create "more effective message
strategies that are more efficiently targeted," the researchers
said. It might also help people satisfy their sweet tooth
with fruit instead of sugar, they said. The researchers
conduct- ed a random sample of 2,000 North Americans to
determine if eating sweet snacks like cookies was related
more strongly to fruit than to vegetable consumption,
foodnavi- gator.com reported. The Web site provided no margin
of error for the study.
Scientists
image disordered brain activity
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.,
-- Doctors know psychiatric disorders always involve activity in
the brain and now scientists are using scanning techniques to
get glimpses of that activity. Using techniques such as positron
emission tomography results so far usually involve two
brain regions: the limbic system, where memory
meets emotion and the pre- frontal cortex, which supports
planning, judgment, and self-control.
Studies have concentrated on three disorders:
--
Phobias: When a person who fears snakes is confronted with one,
brain scans show rising blood flow and energy consumption in the
amygdala, a center of fear and anger within the limbic
system.
-- Obsessive-compulsive disorder: When OCD symptoms
are active, so is a brain circuit connecting part of
the frontal cortex with the basal ganglia, a region
involved in the coordination of movements.
-- Depression: Results are conflicting. In some studies,
therapy seems to heighten activity in the prefrontal cortex
and decrease it in the limbic system, including the amygdala.
Other studies suggest what changes is relative activity levels
in parts of the prefrontal
cortex.
Study approves
new cIAI treatment
KENILWORTH, N.J., -- U.S.
researchers have found the pharm- aceutical Avelox is effective
for monotherapy treatment of complicated intra-abdominal
infections. The Kenilworth, N.J.-based, Schering-Plough Corp.
said its once-daily, broad-spectrum antibiotic was found to be
as effective and well tolerated as a standard multi-dose
combination anti- biotic regimen in the treatment of cIAI. In a
study involv- ing 681 patients, Avelox -- the only marketed
fluoroquino- lone antibiotic approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Admini- stration as cIAI monotherapy -- was shown to be
effective at eradicating the most common bacteria that cause
cIAI, including E. coli and B. fragilis. Current therapy for
the disease involves multiple drugs taken multiple times
daily. The new study showed a single daily dose of Avelox had
a higher clinical cure rate than standard combination
therapy, especially among patients who acquired cIAI in a
hospital setting. The study appears in the journal Annals of
Surgery.
Sunburn
seems to heal in just a few days, but the blood vessels under the skin do not
return to their normal condition for up to fifteen months.

a Wednesday (July 26) ceremony in downtown Nashville. Marshall
Grant, Cash's longtime bassist and a member of his early band,
the Tennessee Two, presented the instrument to the museum that
opened to the public in June. Before giving it to Grant as
a gift, Cash often performed, wrote and recorded with
the guitar.

July 27, 2006: Dierks Bentley will release his third
disc on Halloween. While the album has yet to be titled, the first single,
"Every Mile a Memory," is the fastest rising single for the Phoenix
native.
Bentley went platinum with his first two releases, the
self-titled debut and "Modern Day Drifter." "Every Mile A Memory," written
by Bentley, Brett Beavers and Steve Bogard, went for official radio adds
last week, and this week is 24 on Billboard (moving up 10 spots on the
chart) and 28 on R&R (up 6 spots from last week) proving to be the
fastest-rising single of his career.
The "Every Mile A Memory" video hits the airwaves on GAC
this weekend as a "BUZZ CLIP and will be a "HOTSHOT" debut on CMT
beginning next Thursday. Filmed as part of a recent live concert DVD
project, the majority of the video was shot at Denver's Fillmore
Auditorium with additional segments from Nashville. The video was directed
by London-based filmmaker Russell Thomas.
Since the release of "Modern Day Drifter" in May 2005,
Bentley has become the youngest member of the world famous Grand Ole Opry,
a CMA Horizon Award winner and most recently an ACM Top Male Vocalist
award nominee. All three releases off "Modern Day Drifter" produced number
one hits, two of which spent multiple weeks in the top spot ("Lot of
Leavin' Left to Do," "Come A Little Closer" and "Settle for a Slowdown").
His debut included the hits "What Was I Thinkin?" and the follow-up "How
Am I Doin'."

debuts in first on the Billboard country album chart and third on the
overall sales chart for the week ending Aug. 8, while Brad Paisley
continues atop the song chart with "The World" for the third straight
week.
This is the best start for Atkins, whose
album is "If You're Going Through Hell." He took over from Johnny Cash's
"American V: A Hundred Highways," which fell to fourth. Atkins also
received good news on the song chart because his hit single, "If You're
Going Through Hell (Before The Devil Even Knows)," is now third, up two.
On the song chart, Carrie Underwood was
second, up one, with "Don't Forget to Remember Me." Toby Keith remained
fourth with "A Little Too Late," while Kenny Chesney was down three to
fifth with "Summertime." The biggest mover was Dierks Bentley, whose
"Every Mile a Memory" was up 10 to 24th. The song is from his forthcoming
third album. On the album chart, Rascal Flatts stayed second with "Me And
My Gang," while the Dixie Chicks remained third with "Taking the Long
Way." Underwood was down one to fifth with "Some Hearts." Alan Jackson
jumped five spots to sixth with "Precious Memories," while newcomer Eric
Church debuted in seventh with "Sinners Like Me," selling about 25,000
units. Billy Ray Cyrus debuted in 24th with "Wanna Be Your Man."
On the overall top 200 album chart, Rascal
Flatts was 6th, Dixie Chicks 9th, Cash 12th and Underwood 22nd.

USELESS FACT ****
How do cell phones
vibrate?
In
the same way that we can only dimly grasp how airplanes fly and boats float,
cell
phones baffle us. Of course, our ignorance
doesn't stop us from shouting into them each and every day. And since most of us
use cell phones, the least we can do is set them to vibrate rather than subject
folks to obnoxious ringtones.
OK, here's what we found: a flywheel motor
with a weight is attached to one side. When the motor turns, the weight throws
it off balance and creates a wobble. That wobble causes the whole cell phone, to
jiggle.
Now, we want to ask you something: Did you ask this because
you've tried to answer your phone when it vibrates, only to find it's not
actually moving (or even on)? If so, you may have had close encounters with a
new phenomenon -- the phantom cell phone vibration. Perhaps you're hoping for a
call just a little too fervently. Perhaps your muscles are twitching. To be
honest, we're not sure. But to be on the safe side, maybe it's time you call an
exorcist (on a landline, of course).
LAST CALL Y'ALL
