TUESDAY  OCTOBER 9,2007


THOUGHT FOR TODAY: Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way and most of the roads weren't paved.


Star Trek and Iraqis
The Iraqi Ambassador to the UN has just finished giving a speech, and
walks out into the lobby where he meets President Bush.
They shake hands and, after a brief chat about world affairs, the Iraqi
says, "I have a question that I think perhaps you can answer. "

The Iraqi ambassador continues, "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and
in it there are Russians, Blacks and Asians, but never any Iraqis. He is very
upset. He doesn't understand why there are never any Iraqi in Star Trek."
President Bush laughs, leans toward the Iraqi, and whispers, "It's because
it takes place in the future...."

"Hey, Sven," said Ole, "how many Frenchmen does it take to grease a
combine?" After Sven replied, "I don't know," Ole said, "Only two, if
you run them through real slow."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In retaliation against the US House of Representatives changing
the names of French fries and French toast to Freedom fries and
Freedom toast in their cafeteria, the French government has
announced that they will NOT change the name of American cheese.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The judge had just awarded a divorce to Lena, who had charged
non-support. He said to Ole, "I have decided to give your wife $400 a
month for support." "Vell, dat's fine, Judge," said Ole. "And vunce in
a while I'll try to chip in a few bucks, myself."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At a Prima Care Clinic in Wylie Texas, an older woman found one
reason or another to visit daily. She had few friends and
liked to chat with the Doctors and Nurses. They in turn treated
all of her medical complaints with seeming concern and
compassion. Showing up one afternoon, after being absent for over
a week, a Nurse asked her why she hadn't been there in so long.
The lady responded, "I've been sick all week."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My husband and I took our two-year-old daughter to the home-improvement
store. Madison got tired of walking, so my husband let her ride on his
shoulders. As he walked, Madison began pulling his hair. Although he asked her to
stop several times, she kept on. Getting annoyed, "But, Daddy," she replied, "I'm just
trying to get my gum back."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mrs. Jamison kept her sense of humor while she was in the hospital
for a very serious condition. She could only be fed
intravenously, which isn't very pleasant at all. She asked the
Nurse if she could have a couple of extra bottles this one day.
The Nurse asked her Whatever for?" She kinda giggled and said,
"I'm having people over for lunch."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lena called the airlines information desk and inquired, "How long does
it take to fly from Minneapolis to Fargo?" "Just a minute," said the
busy clerk. "Vell, said Lena, "if it has to go dat fast, I tink I'll
just take da bus."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ole and Lena got married. On their honeymoon trip they were nearing
Minneapolis when Ole put his hand on Lena's knee. Giggling, Lena said,
"Ole, you can go a little farther now if ya vant to." So Ole drove to
Duluth.
~~~~~~
 Monica's daughter's friend was having a baby.  The whole family
was invited to the baby shower.  Her 6-year-old nephew asked if there
was a baby in her tummy.  She said yes.  Then he asked, "Want me to
help you get it out?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Four-year-old Natalie was in the garage with her daddy when she
suddenly piped up with: "Why is there Red Sox all over this house?"
Her daddy explained he loves the Boston Red Sox baseball team.  She
looked to his feet and said, "If you like Red Sox, why are you
wearing white socks?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NASA was interviewing professionals to be sent to Mars. Only one could
go, and he couldn't return to Earth.

The first applicant, an engineer, was asked how much he wanted to be
paid for going. "A million dollars," he answered, "because I want to
donate it to M.I.T."

The next applicant, a doctor, was asked the same question. He asked for
two million dollars. "I want to give a million to my family", he
explained, "and leave the other million for the advancement of medical
research."

The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much money he wanted, he
whispered in the interviewer's ear, "Three million dollars."

"Why so much more than the others?" the interviewer asked.

The lawyer replied, "If you give me $3 million, I'll give you $1
million, I'll keep $1 million, and we'll send the engineer."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ole is so cheap that after his airplane landed safely he grumbled,
"Vell, dere gose five dollars down da drain for dat flight insurance!"

On a recent vacation at a resort with my in-laws, we planned to
spend an afternoon at the pool with our kids. We wanted to bring
our own drinks, but were unsure of the hotel's policy.

My brother-in-law called the front desk, and assuming everyone was
familiar with the brand of ice chest he had, asked if it was all
right if he brought a Playmate to the pool.

After a pause, the clerk asked, "Does she have her own towel?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mike: Do you remember first meeting your wife?

John: Sure, I found Jill lying face down in the gutter. I lifted
her to her feet and promised her that if she agreed to marry me,
she would begin a new life and I'd never allow her near the
gutter again.

Mike: Wow, I hope she appreciates what you did for her.

John: Not really. Jill hated to give up bowling
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The pastor was known for the clarity and brevity of his sermons. His
talks were well organized and always ended promptly at 20 minutes.

One Sunday, he seemed to wander and drift around a bit and was still
preaching to the congregation after 35 minutes. His wife managed a
small signal, which fortunately he recognized as a sign he should come
to a close.

When they got home after the service, the wife asked the pastor why he
got so muddled and why he went on speaking so long.

He answered, "Well, I've gotten into the habit of tucking a lozenge in
my mouth before I stand to speak. When the lozenge has dissolved, I know
it is time to stop. This morning, unfortunately I picked up a collar
button instead of a lozenge."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While practicing autorotations during a military night training
exercise a Huey Cobra screwed up the landing and landed on the
tail rotor. The landing was so hard that it broke off the tail
boom. However, the chopper fortunately remained upright on its
skids, sliding down the runway doing 360s. As the Cobra slid past
the tower, trailing a brilliant shower of sparks, this was the
radio exchange that took place:
Tower: "Sir, do you need any assistance?"
Cobra: "I don't know Tower, we ain't done crashin' yet."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bert took his Saint Bernard to the vet. "Doctor," he said sadly, "I'm
afraid I'm going to have to ask you to cut off my dog's tail." The vet
stepped back, "Bert, why should I do such a terrible thing?"

"Because my mother-in-law's arriving tomorrow, and I don't want
anything to make her think she's welcome."

The peanut:  Is it a pea or a nut?  The peanut is a legume.
It bears fruit in the form of pods that contain one or more
seeds.  The peanut is more closely related to peas than to nuts.

Georgia produces more peanuts than any other U.S. state-
-about 40% of the nation's annual crop.  However, Asia
and Africa produce about 90% of the world's peanuts. 
Top growers include China, India, Indonesia, and Nigeria.

Peanut butter is nutritious, although quite high in calories.
Nuts and peanuts are packed with fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Their monounsaturated fat fights heart disease.

Industry sources say 60% of consumers prefer creamy over crunchy.
Women and kids opt for creamy; men go for the crunchy stuff.
 
 The original Uncle Ben was a black rice farmer known to rice
millers in and around Houston in the 1940s for consistently
delivering the highest quality rice for milling. Uncle Ben
harvested his rice with such care that he purportedly received
several honors for full-kernel yields and quality. Legend holds
that other rice growers proudly claimed their rice was "as good
as Uncle Ben's." Unfortunately, further details of Uncle Ben's
life (including his last name) were lost to history.

Golf was invented in Scotland on October 3, 1100 at 11:15 AM.
The very first golf joke was created at 1:30 PM the same day.

A cicada can chirp so loud you can hear it from half a mile away.

In 1457, King James II of Scotland banned golf because its popularity
threatened the practice of archery for national defense. And even today,
husbands still suffer the slings and arrows of wives who don't quite get
the essence of golf.
 
 Early in his career, William F. Buckley, Jr. was
employed as a Spanish teacher at Yale.

The cat was the symbol of liberty in ancient Rome.

If a person is "aerophobic," they have an irrational
fear of drafts.

It takes 100,000 years for a red giant to change into
a white dwarf. By astronomical standards, this is
practically instantaneous, a mere one-thousandth
of the star's life.

The Colosseum received its name not for its size, but
for a colossal statue of Nero that stood close by,
placed there after the destruction of his palace.

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

Why does popcorn pop?

Popcorn, a variety of Indian corn called "Zea mays everta", is
different from ordinary corn in that it has a harder outer shell.
As the corn is heated, moisture in its starchy grains is
converted to steam, causing a tremendous pressure to be exerted
against the shell. The tough shell stands up under the pressure
for a while but eventually breaks down and the kernel explodes
with such force that it throws out its white, pulpy insides,
making an audible popping sound in the process.
