"Friends are God's way of taking care of us."
These  are clean jokes. However,
They are,
PG - Not intended for  younger readers - PG
An apology is the superglue of life. It can repair almost anything.

Welcome New Subscribers
If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably
don't have any sense at all

Anyone without a sense of humor is at the mercy
of the rest of us.
Heaven Help Them

Remember,it is easier to get older
than it is to get wiser

God, grant me the Senility to forget the people
I never liked ,
The good fortune to run into the ones I do,
And the eyesight to tell the difference.

THURSDAY AUGUST 23,2007


THOUGHT FOR TODAY: You're starting to believe that having the kids in school year- round wouldn't be such a bad idea after all.They start back today!!!

A minister waited in line to have his car filled with gas just before a
long holiday weekend.

The attendant worked quickly, but there were many cars ahead of him in
front of the service station. Finally, the attendant motioned him toward
a vacant pump.

"Sorry about the delay. It seems as if everyone waits until the last
minute to get ready for a long trip."

The minister chuckled, "I know what you mean. It's the same in my
business."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It had been a long day in traffic court, and the judge was listening to the final case on the docket. The police officer stated that he had observed the defendant travelling significantly above the posted speed limit. In response, the defendant went on and on about the road conditions, the amount of traffic and his innocence. Then, certain he had won his case, he melodramatically proclaimed, "Why, Your Honour, I'll even take a lie detector test." "Son," the judge wearily replied, "I am the lie detector."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jill, a blonde, went to a "Dude Ranch" on vacation.

The cowboy preparing the horses asked if she wanted a Western or English
saddle, and she asked what the difference was.

He told her one had a horn, and one didn't.

Jill replies, "The one without the horn is fine. I don't expect we'll
run into too much traffic out here."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The software engineering field is staffed primarily by men; the ratio of male to female software engineers is on the order of 25 to 1.

This makes it pretty easy for women to find potential mates among their peers. However, software types have a well-earned reputation for being... well, a little strange.

While discussing the prospect of working in the software industry, one woman commented to another: "The odds are good, but the goods are odd."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A man learned shortly before quitting time that he had to attend a last
minute business meeting.

He tried unsuccessfully to locate his car-pool members to let them know
that he would not be leaving with them.

He hastily scribbled a message to one fellow and left it on his desk.

"I have a last-minute meeting. Leave without me. Dave."

At 700 p.m., the man comes back to his desk and finds this note...

"Meet us at the bar and grill across the street. You drove, idiot!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A pastor was preaching an impassioned sermon on the evils of television.

"It steals away precious time that could be better spent on other things," he said.

He advised the congregation to do what he and his family had done.

"We put our TV away in the closet."

"That's right," his wife mumbled, "and it gets awfully crowded in there."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few women were sitting around the table talking, and the subject turned to their husbands. One lady said, "My husband just won't go to church with me, I think he's going to go to Hell."

This led to talk around the table and it was generally agreed that, for one reason or another, all the husbands were going to end up in Hell.

So, then the housewives started speculating about themselves. One woman said, "I try to be good - I'm sure I'll make it to Heaven."

Another one said, "No, I did this bad thing, I won't make it unless I mend my ways, I better start soon."

At this point they noticed that one of the ladies (the only single women in the group, and a blonde, mind you) wasn't saying anything. They turned to her and said, "You're such a nice lady, surely you'll be going to Heaven?"

She says, "No way! In fact, first thing in the morning, I'm going to buy me a ticket straight to Hell!"

They were shocked and asked, "Why??"

"Well, you don't expect me to live in a world without men, do you??!?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mrs. Jones called the doctor's office and was met with this response by
the secretary. "This is Dr. Whitman's office. What would you like to
talk about?"

Mrs. Jones was disturbed by this response and replied sarcastically, "I
want to order a hamburger with fries. For Christ's sake, why would I
call a doctor if I didn't feel sick? I'm very sick. I need to see the
doctor."

"Fine," replied the secretary, "I can make an appointment for you. Let
me see, ahhhh yes, I have an appointment one week from next Friday."

"Great," said Mrs. Jones, "I'll have my mortician drop me off then!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 She gave a personal check in payment and said to
the clerk, "I suppose you will want to see some
identification."
 He replied, without hesitation, "No ma'am, that won't be
necessary."
 "How come?" my wife asked.
 "Crooks don't buy peat moss," answered the clerk.

**** ON THIS DAY ****

On some air bases the Air Force is on one side of the field and civilian
aircraft use the other side of the field, with the control tower in the
middle. One day the tower received a call from an aircraft asking,
"What time is it?"

The tower responded, "Who is calling?"

The aircraft replied, "What difference does it make?" The tower
replied, "It makes a lot of difference. If it is an American Airlines
flight, it is 3 o'clock. If it is an Air Force plane, it is 1500 hours.
If it is a Navy aircraft, it is 6 bells. If it is an Army aircraft, the
big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 3. If it is a
Marine Corps aircraft, it's Thursday afternoon and 120 minutes to "Happy
Hour".

Taylor Swift tops country music chart yet again

Wednesday, August 22, 2007 – Taylor Swift's self-titled debut CD holds down its lock on the number one position on the SoundScan Country Album Sales Chart for the fifth straight week. Swift sold 30,048 units last week for a total of 1,188,489.
Swift is the only country artist in 2007 to spend 5 consecutive weeks at the top. She reached the top of the country sales chart in its 39th week in stores. 

Earlier this summer, Swift became the only female solo artist in country music history to write or co-write every song on a platinum-selling debut. 

Swift is touring this summer, hitting 33 states in 3 months. Last month she wrapped a series of dates as a featured guest on Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's Soul2Soul 2007 tour, and she is currently on tour with Brad Paisley. She has also shared the stage with Rascal Flatts, George Strait and Kenny Chesney. 

"Taylor Swift" is the first number one selling album for Big Machine Records.

**** TODAY'S USELESS FACT ****


Why do dogs wag their tails when they're happy?

After a quick tour of the links from our Dog Training category, we discovered there are several reasons why a dog wags its tail, and not all of them have to do with being a happy-go-lucky puppy. Since the ancestors of today's domesticated dogs ran in packs, communication -- whether by barking, growling, or wagging tails -- was essential.

A dog with a loosely wagging tail is usually a dog that is friendly or excited. However, a wagging tail is not always a sign of an amiable pooch. An aggressive dog might hold its tail high and wag only the tip, while a submissive or scared dog is more likely to hold its tail low and wag it stiffly.

Some experts believe that a wagging tail is a sign of conflict. When an animal is in conflict, it wants to retreat and advance at the same time. The wagging tail is an indication of this confusion.

When you see a dog wagging its tail, odds are that the dog is in good spirits, probably running after a ball or begging for a treat. However, you should be aware that a wagging tail isn't a definitive sign of a friendly dog; proceed with caution if you think the dog is aggressive.





****A PARTING THOUGHT ****

Why is it that our children can't read a Bible in school, but they can in prison?
LAST CALL Y'ALL

YOU KNOW YOU'RE A NURSE WHEN...

The front of your scrubs read: 'Nurses...here to save your ass, not kiss it!'

You occasionally park in the space with the 'Physicians Only' sign, and knock it over.

You believe some patients are alive only because it's illegal to kill them.

You always follow the rules, but you're wise enough to forget them sometimes. You can't cure stupid.

You have seen more moons than the Hubbell telescope.

You own at least three pens with the names of prescription medications on them.

You never get into an argument with an idiot, because they only bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

You hope there's a special place in Hell for the inventor of the call light.

You believe that saying, 'It can't get any worse' causes it to get worse just to show you it can.

You wash your hands before you go to the bathroom.

You've ever thought a blood pressure cuff would be an excellent gift for Christmas.

You've ever spent more money on a stethoscope than on a car payment.

You believe any job where you can drive to work in pajamas is a cool job.

The ER is a mixture of can do, can't do, and why the hell not!

You consider a tongue depressor an eating utensil.

You know it's a full moon without having to look at the sky.

Eating microwave popcorn out of a clean bedpan is perfectly natural.

You've been exposed to so many x-rays that you consider it a form of birth control.

You've ever had a patient with a nose ring, a brow ring and twelve earrings say, "I'm afraid of shots."

You've ever bet on someone's blood alcohol level
