I always know God won't give me more than I can handle,
but there are times I wish He didn't trust me quite so much.

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.

As a potential juror in an assault-and-battery case, I was sitting in a courtroom, answering questions from both sides. The Crown prosecutor asked such questions as: Had I ever been mugged? Did I know the victim or the defendant? The defence attorney took a different approach, however. "I see you are a teacher," he said. "What do you teach?"

"English and theatre," I responded.

"Then I guess I better watch my grammar," the defence attorney quipped.

"No," I shot back. "You better watch your acting."

When the laughter in the courtroom died down, I was excused from the case.

being.

A ventriloquist and his little dog were traveling through the country
and stopped at a farm house where the man promised the farmer he would
have the dog talk some for him if he would give them something to eat.
The farmer brought out some supper for the man and some bone scraps for
the little dog. As they were eating, the ventriloquist asked the dog,
"How do you like your supper, Carlo?" "Plenty bone but not much meat!"
the dog replied. The farmer was astounded, said, "What'll you take for
that dog?" The traveller said, "Oh, couldn't part with my dog." "I'll
give you $50 for him," the farmer said. The ventriloquist said, "What do
you think, Carlo?" And Carlo spoke back to him, "Why, that other feller
offered you $150, and now you'd sell me for just $50?" "Well, I need the
money bad, Carlo," the man said, and told the farmer he would take the
fifty if he would give him fifty more when he came back through in a
month or two. The farmer said he would, and counted out $50 for him. The
man handed the farmer the string that was tied around Carlo's neck and
told Carlo goodbye. "Are you sure you're coming back?" Carlo asked him
as he walked away. The traveller said yes he was. "Well," the dog said,
"I'm sorry you're selling me, but I'd hate to see you get gypped. I'll
not speak another word til you come back and this old fool gives you the
rest of the money."

The Messiah Himself

A Rabbi and a Priest were sitting together on a train, and the Rabbi
leans over and asks, "So how high can you go in your organization?"

The Priest says, "If I am lucky, I guess I could become a Bishop."

"But, could you get any higher than that?" asks the Rabbi.

"I suppose that if my works are seen in a very good light that I might
be made an Arch Bishop," said the Priest a bit cautiously.

"Is there any way that you might go higher than that?"

"Now, if all the Saints should smile, I guess I could be made a
Cardinal", said the priest.

"Could you be anything higher than a Cardinal?" probed the Rabbi.

Hesitating just a little bit, the Priest said "I suppose that I could be
elected Pope, but the odds there ..."

So the Rabbi interjects, "And could you be anything higher than that?
What is there higher than the Pope?"

"What!!! I should be the Messiah himself!?!"

The Rabbi leaned back, smiled, and said, "Well you know, one of our boys
made it..."

    A REDNECK GONE WRONG
Herbert Peach of Jackson, Kentucky bragged to his neighbors that he had
thought of a unique way of "fishing" in his backyard pond. He claimed
that if he rigged up a live electrical cable and dropped the end into
the water, the nearby fish would be shocked and he could run out and
collect them.

The problem is, it worked...up to a point. The fish were shocked on his
maiden try and so was Mr. Peach who forgot to turn off the 220 volt line
before scampering into the water to collect them. Authorities also
reported that the electrical generator used to power the " fishing
expedition" was reported as stolen from the local farm co-op.

Mr. Peach's funeral arrangements will be announced shortly.

Little Joan grew up as a blonde, and married me, so you know what I have
to put up with.

The other day, She came running up, just jumping for joy! I didn't know
why she was jumping for joy but I thought, what the heck and I starting
jumping up and down with her. She said, " Honey, I have some really
great news for you!", so I said, "Great. Tell me what you're so happy
about."

Joan stopped jumping and was breathing heavily from all the jumping up
and down, when she told me that she was pregnant! I was ecstatic! We had
been trying for a while, so I grabbed her and kissed her on the lips and
told her, "That's great! I couldn't be happier!"

She said "Oh, honey. There's more", so I asked, "What do you mean more?"
She said, "We are not having just one baby. We are going to have TWINS!"
Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, I asked her
how she knew.

She said, "Well, that was the easy part. I went to Wal-Mart and bought
the twin-pack home pregnancy test kit and both tests came out positive."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
I called the local newspaper's classified section to complain about an
ad I'd placed. It was obvious the person who took my information had
never spent any time on a farm.
      "I said 'ewes'," I argued.
      "Pardon?" replied the operator.
      "Ewes. It makes a difference to some people."

      The ad that was placed read: "Sheep for sale--USED."

Driving along an outback road in Australia, I spied an exotic bird
flying overhead. The creature was black, with a huge and striking
red-and-gold beak. "Hey, look! A toucan!" I yelled.

      "Toucan nothin'," said the Aussie passenger. "It's a crow with its
beak stuck in a McDonald's fries carton."

* Women can actually survive without doing their hair- you
just wish they weren't around you
* A new method of non-lethal torture- showers without hot water.
* Dominion Virginia Power and VDOT (Virginia Dept. of
Transportation)are the same company- not really but their
ability to plan are strikingly similiar.

Please don't print city
or state to protect the guilty party's husband.

This story is too funny, but IT IS TRUE.

The wife of a co-worker was cleaning out the food pantry last Saturday.
Why she was doing this no one knows because she doesn't cook, he does.
Well, she decided the box of Minute Rice was too old to keep. Dry,
uncooked Minute Rice that keeps for years unless bugs get in it. But
she decided it was too old. SO.....................

She dumped it down the kitchen sink. With lots of water. And couldn't
understand why the sink clogged in less than 30 minutes!!

He had to take the pipes apart to get the long, jellied mass of rice
out.

No, she's not blonde.

Mike checked into his hotel room and immediately noticed a dead
cockroach on the floor. He called the front desk, asked for the manager
and raised a fuss.
      "Sir, please calm down," the manager replied. "It's dead. It can't
bother you now."
      "The dead roach doesn't bother me." Mike said. "It's his
pallbearers and the funeral party."

You have only 2 things to worry about :

You're either rich or poor.

If you're rich, you have nothing to worry about.

If you're poor, you have 2 things to worry about :
whether you're in good health or bad.

If you're in good health, you have nothing to worry about.

If you're in bad health you may die.

If you die you have nothing to worry about.

You're either going to Heaven, or the other place.

If you go to Heaven, you have nothing to worry about.

If you go to the other place, you'll be busy greeting old friends and
you won't have time to worry.

The farmer stood in his chicken yard watching hundreds of baby chicks
running here and there. He kept pointing to them and trying    to
count them. "One, two, three, four, five, six, oh, no..." then he would
start over, "one, two, three, four, and,... oh, no." Then he'd start
over again.

Finally he said, "I give up. They say don't count your chickens before
they hatch but it sure is easier to do that than it is to count them
after they hatch."

**** ON THIS DAY ****
A married couple is driving along a highway doing steady eighty
Kilometres per hour. The wife is behind the wheel. Her husband suddenly
looks across at her and speaks in a clear voice.

"Darling," he says. I know we've been married for twenty years but I
want A divorce."

The wife says nothing, keeps looking at the road ahead but slowly
Increases her speed to ninety kph.

The husband speaks again.

"I don't want you to try and talk me out of it" he says, "because I've
been having an affair with your best friend, and she's a far better
lover than you are."

Again the wife stays quiet, but grips the steering wheel more tightly
And slowly increases the speed to one hundred and ten.

He pushes his luck. "I want the house," he says insistently.

Up to 120.

"I want the car, too," he continues.

130kph.

"AND," he says, "I'll have the bank accounts, all the credit cards and
the boat."

The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete flyover. This
makes him a wee bit nervous, so he asks her "Isn't there anything You
want?"

The wife at last replies - in a quiet and controlled voice. "No,I've Got
everything I need." she says.

"Oh, really?" he inquires, "So, what have you got?"

Right before they slam into the wall at 160 clicks, the wife turns to
Him and smiles.

"The airbag."

A man is driving down a country road, when he spots a farmer standing in the middle of a huge field of grass. He pulls the car over to the side of the road and notices that the farmer is just standing there, doing nothing, looking at nothing.

The man gets out of the car, walks all the way out to the farmer and asks him, "Ah excuse me mister, but what are you doing?"

The farmer replies, "I'm trying to win a Nobel Prize."

"How?" asks the man, puzzled.

"Well I heard they give the Nobel Prize... to people who are out standing in their field."

Toby Keith's family wins suit in father's death

The family of Toby Keith won a $2.8-million dollar award against a Tulsa, Okla. Company for the wrongful death and negligence of T.K. Covel,'s Keith's father,k in a March 2001 car accident.
Elias Rodriguez and Pedro Rodriguez - doing business as, Rodriguez Transportes of Tulsa and the Republic Western Insurance Company, an Arizona Corporation - were found responsible. 

 

Covel was driving a Ford truck that was traveling near Goldsby, Okla. when he was bumped by another vehicle, sending his truck across the median, where it was struck by a southbound tour (charter) bus. The Rodriguezes were in a 1996 Dina Viag charter-type bus loaded with 21 passengers at the time of the accident. They had purchased the bus in October of 2000. In the following month, November 2000, a bus servicing facility in Tulsa inspected the bus and found it was "urgently" in need of brake work. 

 

An expert witness testified that Covel would have lived if the bus has been equipped with proper brakes and the driver had been properly trained to drive the bus The evidence in the case revealed the bus driver, David Perez, was not trained to drive a commercial bus and did not have a commercial driver's license. The jury concluded the accident was "clearly avoidable," according to Keith's publicist. 

 

Initially it was speculated that Covel may have suffered a medical condition, thereby causing the accident because no one knew that a car had bumped his truck onto the other side of the I-35. Six months after the accident, Jeanne Sparlin, who was the driver of that vehicle, was charged with leaving the scene of a fatality accident. She later pled guilty to the charge. This collection of facts led the Covel family to hire an investigator to determine how the accident occurred and what caused Covel's death. 

 

The unanimous jury verdict in the case answered these questions for the family, clearly establishing that Covel was not at fault. In addition, the jury found by clear and convincing evidence that Rodriguez Transportes acted in reckless disregard for the rights of Covel. 

 

"We were only there to find the truth and the jury saw it so plainly that they awarded us a unanimous decision," Toby Keith said. 

 

The plaintiffs in the case were Covel's wife, Carolyn Covel, his daughter, Tonni Covel and sons Toby Keith Covel and Tracey Covel.

Crystal Gayle pays tribute to guitarist Jerry McEwen


Submitted by Cindy Watts: Jerry McEwen died Tuesday when he was stabbed while attempting to thwart a purse-snatching at his neighborhood Kroger. His neighbors remember him as quiet and unassuming, but that's not what country legend Crystal Gayle recalled when she thinks of Jerry. And, she should know: At one time, he was the guitar player in her touring band, and she has known him for years.

"He was a great person and a great guitar player," Crystal said. "He was full of life and full of pranks. He would pull pranks on everybody. One week we were in Vegas, and when it came to introduce Jay Patton, who plays saxophone for me, Jerry would turn his guitar over and it said, 'Don't applaud.' And the crowd wouldn't, and it bothered (Jay) the whole week until Jerry let him know what he did. He was just someone who loved to have a lot of fun. And, of course, knowing him and what he did, I knew he would do that. He was just someone who was giving and caring."

Crystal said she heard of Jerry's passing through a phone call from Jay, and that she just wants to let his family know that she remembers Jerry as being a very special person.

"We're out there (on the road) as a family, and Jerry was definitely a part of the family," she said. "He was great. My heart is with his family, and we'll definitely miss him."

Singing for Secours

Submitted by Peter Cooper: Maura O'Connell sings at the Station Inn tonight, which should be reason enough for any of us to head to the Gulch and hear one of the world's finer vocal stylists.

Tonight's show is about more than just Maura. It will also feature two splendid multi-instrumentalists/songwriters/vocalists in Tim O'Brien and Darrell Scott, and there's a pretty good chance of a surprise guest or two as well. All of this late-December musical hubbub is due to a need to raise funds for Molly Secours, a journalist, filmmaker and activist who has been fighting various good fights for many years. These days, Molly is also fighting cancer, and her musical friends are trying to make sure she's able to continue to afford proper treatment.

"This is one of what will have to be several benefits, I imagine," Maura said. "We did one at the Belcourt in October, and the atmosphere was tremendous."
