DAY AUGUST ,2005
 THOUGHT FOR TODAY: Don't be
afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.
Growing up as a kid, I learned all about
capitalism through the board game Monopoly. I mean, what better way to
teach a young mind the way our economy functions. I loved this game and still
do. Only now, as an adult I have some questions that
remain unanswered.
For instance, if I have all this money and own
all this real estate...why am I still driving around in
a thimble? ~~~~~~~ The after-dinner speaker just didn't have a
Stop button. He babbled on and on and on, oblivious to his increasingly
restless audience.
Finally one of the more drunken diners hurled an
empty wine bottle at him. It missed, and hit the
Chairman instead.
As the Chairman slid slowly to the floor clutching
his head, he was heard to murmur, "Hit me again, I can still hear
him." ~~~~~~~~~~~ At the ATM they ask if you'd like to conduct
your business in English or Spanish.
I suggest you try Spanish,
because your account balance will look much better in
pesos. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Excuses,
excuses...
Philadelphia's Highway Patrol officers hear all kinds of
creative excuses that drivers give for speeding. Here are some of the
officers' favorites. By the way, none of them worked.
A man told the
officer he was rushing to the hospital because had been stung by a bee, and
was allergic. "There's the bee right there," he said, pointing to his
dashboard. The officer looked. The bee was not only dead, but in a advanced
state of decomposition.
A speeder said that he and his wife were trying
to have a baby. "My wife is ovulating," he told the officer. "I have to
get home right now."
"I'm due in traffic court," one speeder said. "If
I'm late they're going to enforce the bench warrant."
When an officer
told a speeder that the speed limit on the Schuylkill Expressway was 50 mph,
the driver responded, "Officer, where have you been? It's
65 now."
One speeder said simply, "I'm trying to beat my wife home.
Don't ask."
An elderly person was stopped after doing 73 mph.
When told he was getting a ticket, he asked the officer, "Is there a
senior citizen's discount?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With two older brothers,
our four-year-old daughter, Belinda, longed for a little sister to play with.
One day she burst into my bedroom. "Mommy! Mommy!" she cried excitedly, "We can
get a sister now! I was pushing buttons on the phone, and the lady said, 'If you
need a sister, please stay on the line and an operator will help
you.'" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Our search-and-rescue helicopter crew was aiding a stricken fishing
vessel off the coast of Maine. It had lost steerage and was taking on
water.
We hoisted a technician aboard the boat, and he immediately
requested a portable pump. As it was being hoisted, however, it bounced off the
boat, broke loose and fell into the ocean. Then the technician called for a
rescue collar to evacuate the crew from the sinking vessel. It, too, fell into
the water and was lost. At that, our aircraft commander looked back and asked,
"Is there anything else you'd like to throw at
them?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Two contafiters way up nort in Chicargo
wuz makin sum contafit money an dey accidently made sum twelve dollar bill by
mistake. Dey made a whole bunch of dem before dey foun dere mistake, so
insted of startin over dey decide to try to pass dem off.
Dey always
herd how backward people in Louisiana wuz, especially dem folks name
Boudreaux frum down neer Lafayette so dey jump in dere car an drive down to
Lafayette, LA an wen dey got dere dey look in da fone book an shore enuf dey
fine Boudreaux's General Store an Mercantile listed rite dere in da yeller
pages.
Dey went to Boudreaux's store an walk up to da man at da
counter.
Da firs contafiter say, "Are you Mr.
Boudreaux?"
Boudreaux say, "Mais shore, dat's me. Wat can Ah do fa you
fellers?"
Da contafiter wisper to his frien, "This is gonna be easier
than I thought."
Da contafiter say, "Can you give us change for a
twelve dollar bill?"
Boudreaux say, "Mais shore Ah can! How you
want dat, tree fores, fore trees, or 2 sixes?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All of
his life Ole had heard stories of an amazing family tradition. It seems that his
father, grandfather and great- grandfather had all been able to walk on water on
their 21st birthday. On that day, they'd walk across the lake to the boat club
for their first legal drink.
So when Ole's 21st birthday came around, he
and his pal Sven took a boat out to the middle of the lake. Ole stepped out of
the boat and nearly drowned! Sven just managed to pull him to
safety.
Furious and confused, Ole went to see his grandmother. "Grandma,
it's my 21st birthday, so why can't I walk across the lake like my father, his
father, and his father before him?"
Granny looked into Ole's eyes and
said, "Because, you dumb nut, your father, grandfather and great grandfather
were born in January, you were born in July." ~~~~ A woman's husband dies. He had $30,000 to his name. After everything
is done at the funeral home and cemetery, she tells her closest
friend that there is none of the $30,000
left.
The friend says, "How can that
be?
The widow says, "Well, the funeral cost
me $6,500. And of course I made a donation to the church. That was
$500, and I spent $500 for the wake, food and drinks, you
know. The rest went for the memorial stone."
The friend says, "$22,500 for the
memorial stone? My land, how big is it?"
The widow says, "Three
carats." ~~~~~~~~~~~NORM~~~~~~~~~ Anyone who's ever been to a "teaching
hospital" knows to expect a group of students to descend upon them at any
time.
At one such hospital, in the recovery room, a bunch of students
gathered around a beautiful blonde who, even in a gown, was obviously very
well endowed, indeed
Recovery is an excellent place for student
doctors to become familiar with variations in heartbeats, while the body
comes back to normal from the operation and the anesthesia, by using a simple
stethoscope.
The first student approached the patient calmly and
proceeded to listen intently.
The group was silent as he did so.
The woman hesitated, then looked sympathetically into the eyes of the
doctor-to-be. Reaching up, she gently placed the earpieces into his
ears. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mother of a problem child was advised by a psychiatrist,
"You are far too upset and worried about your son.
I suggest you take tranquilizers regularly." On her next visit the
psychiatrist asked,
"Have the tranquilizers calmed you down?" "Yes" the mother
answered. "And how is your son now?" he asked. "`Who cares?" she
replied. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack's grandfather left him ten
million dollars, and the next week Diane agreed to marry him.
After
three months of married life, Jack noticed that his beautiful new wife was
ignoring him more and more.
Whenever they went out in public, she ignored
him and flirted with other men. Finally, he decided to confront
her.
"Diane," he said, "was the only reason you married me was because
my grandfather left me ten million dollars when he died?"
"Don't be
ridiculous," she replied, "I don't care who gave you
the money!" ~~~~~~~
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 the bartender's face.
Before the bartender could recover 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.
"That 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."
"Huh? But you threw the wine in my face again!" the bartender
exclaimed.
"Yes," the man replied. "But it doesn't embarrass
me anymore!" ~~~~~~~~ While on vacation with my son and his family I
shared a room with my four year old granddaughter, Lacey.
One morning
when Lacey woke up she told me that she had some really nice dreams and
proceeded to tell me about them.
I told her I wished I was able to dream
like that too.
Lacey replied,
"But you can't grandma, can you,
because you snore too
much." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rules
for Flight! There is a lot pilots have to take into account when
hulling your ass across the sky...
1. Every takeoff is
optional. Every landing is mandatory. 2. If you push the stick
forward, the houses get bigger. If you pull the stick back, they get
smaller. That is, unless you keep pulling the stick all the way back, then
they get bigger again. 3. Flying isn't dangerous. Crashing is
what's dangerous. 4. It's always better to be down here wishing you
were up there than up there wishing you were down here. 5. The ONLY
time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire. 6. The propeller is
just a big fan in front of the plane used to keep the pilot cool. When
it stops, you can actually watch the pilot start sweating. 7. When in
doubt, hold on to your altitude. No one has ever collided with the sky.
8. A 'good' landing is one from which you can walk away. A
'great' landing is one after which they can use the plane again. 9.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make
all of them yourself. 10. You know you've landed with the wheels up if
it takes full power to taxi to the ramp. 11. The probability of
survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival. Large angle
of arrival, small probability of survival and vice-versa. 12. Never let
an aircraft take you somewhere your brain didn't get to five minutes earlier.
13. Stay out of clouds. The silver lining everyone keeps talking
about might be another airplane going in the opposite
direction. Reliable sources also report
that mountains have been known to hide out in clouds. 14. Always try to
keep the number of landings you make equal to the number of take offs you've
made. 15. There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing.
Unfortunately no one knows what they are. 16. You start with a bag full
of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of
experience before you empty the bag of luck. 17. Helicopters can't fly;
they're just so ugly the earth repels them. 18. If all you can see out
of the window is ground that's going round and round and all you can hear is
commotion coming from the passenger compartment, things are not at all as
they should be. 19. In the ongoing battle between objects made of
aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles
per hour, the ground has yet to lose. 20. Good judgment comes
from experience. Unfortunately, experience usually comes from bad
judgment. 21. It's always a good idea to keep the pointy end going
forward as much as possible. 22. Keep looking around. There's
always something you've missed. 23. Remember, gravity is not just a
good idea. It's the law. And it's not subject to repeal.
24. The four most useless things to a pilot are the altitude above you,
runway behind you, gas back at the airport, and a tenth of a second ago.
25. There are old pilots and there are bold pilots. There are,
however, no old, bold pilots.

President Bush signed a 286.4 billion dollar highway construction bill
recently, saying it would give better roads to all Americans. Too bad most
Americans can't afford to drive on any roads right now.

**** TODAY'S USELESS FACT

Does chocolate
actually cause acne?
This is a vicious lie, possibly
spread by the fruit-and-vegetable industry and abetted by their allies in the
vanilla lobby. There is no evidence of any
chocolate-in, pimples-out reaction. In fact, two separate studies have
purportedly disproved the link.
One reason for the chocolate-acne myth is
the rumored connection between the high-fat content of chocolate and the fatty
oil called sebum. Sebum blocks skin ducts and causes acne, or "zits" if you want
to get clinical. However, in reality, sebum has nothing at all to do with
chocolate.
But wait chocolate lovers, there's more good news. Dark
chocolate contains flavenoids, an antioxidant known to lower cholesterol. So
it's possible eating a certain amount will reduce your risk for heart disease.
And as if that weren't enough, Dr. Koop has the scoop on an Italian researcher
who has claimed a link exists between eating chocolate and sexual
fulfillment.
Now, no one's suggesting you eat too much chocolate. But
let's review: doesn't cause acne, may be good for the heart, possibly increases
sexual satisfaction. C'mon, broccoli, what have you got to say
now?

LAST CALL Y'ALL Man
of the House
The husband had just finished reading the book, 'MAN
OF THE HOUSE'. He stormed into the kitchen and walked directly up
to his wife.
Pointing a finger in her face, he said, "From now on,
I want you to know that I am the man of this house, and my word is law!
I want you to prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm finished
eating my meal, I expect a sumptuous dessert afterward. Then, after
dinner, you are going to draw me my bath so I can relax. And when I'm
finished with my bath, guess who's going to dress me and comb my
hair?"
His wife replied, "The funeral director would be my
guess?!"
