THOUGHT FOR TODAY: Nothing like a 'little' happy news to start the week.I can't think of anything happier than a baby doing well.

Preemie Baby Proves Good Things Come in Small Packages   

OAK LAWN, Illinois - An infant who was no bigger than a can  
of soda when she entered the world spent her first full day  
out of the hospital last Wednesday. Mia Medina tipped the  
scales at just 1 pound 1 ounce when she was born March 13,  
18 weeks premature, at Advocate Christ Medical Center in  
Oak Lawn, Ill. She had not been expected to live. But doc-  
tors put Mia on a respirator and fed her intravenously.  
Her parents were unable to hold her until she was 2 months  
old. "She's got a strong will," her father, Ric Medina,  
told reporters. Mia is not the smallest baby to survive.  
The Guinness Book of World Records cites a 10-ounce baby  
born at 18 weeks in 1989 at Loyola University Medical  
Center in Maywood, Ill.

The outhouse
Once there was a little boy that lived in the country.They had to use an
outhouse, and the little boy hated it because it was hot in the
summer and cold in the winter and stank all the time.The outhouse was
sitting onthe bank of a
creek and the boy determined that one day he would push that outhouse
into the creek.
One day after a spring rain, the creek was swollen so the little boy
decided today was the day to push the outhouse into the creek.
So he got a large stick and started pushing.
finally, the outhouse toppled into the creek and floated away.That night
his dad told him they were going to the woodshed after supper.
Knowing that meant a spanking, the little boy asked whyThe dad replied,
"Someone pushed the outhouse into the creek today.It was you, wasn't
it son? The boy answered yes.
Then he thought a moment and said, "Dad, I read in school today that
George Washington chopped down a cherry tree and didn't get into trouble
because he told the truth." The dad replied, "Well, son, George
Washington's father
wasn't in the cherry tree!

A private plane owner had recently acquired his solo license and persuaded his wife to fly with him. Deciding to give her a small thrill, he buzzed low over the city and added a couple of flips for good measure. Chuckling, he said, "I'll bet 50 per cent of the folks down there thought we were falling." "Uh-huh," replied the missus, "and 50 per cent up here thought the same thing.'

"Chicken Surprise"

 
A couple go for a meal at a Chinese restaurant and order the "Chicken
Surprise"
 
The waiter brings the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot.
 
Just as the wife is about to serve herself, the lid of the pot rises
slightly and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before
the lid slams back down.
 
"Good grief, did you see that?" she asks her husband.
 
He hasn't, so she asks him to look in the pot.
He reaches for it and again the lid rises,
and he sees two little eyes looking around before it slams down.
 
Rather perturbed, he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening,
and demands an explanation.
 
"Please sir," says the waiter, "wha t you order?"
 
The husband replies, "Chicken Surprise."
 
Ah... so sorry," says the waiter, "I bring you Peeking Duck"

The owner of a golf course in Kentucky was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help.
 
He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from The Kentucky University and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000 minus 14%, how much would you take off?"
 
The secretary thought a moment, then replied, "Everything but my earrings."
 
You gotta love those Kentucky women.

A group of Kentucky friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone,staggering under the w! eight of an eight-point buck.
 
"Where's Henry?" the others asked.
 
"Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the trail," the successful hunter replied.
 
"You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they inquired.
 
"A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to steal Henry!"

A senior at Kentucky was overheard saying... "When the end of the world comes, I hope to be in Kentucky." When asked why, he replied he'd rather be in Kentucky because everything happens in Kentucky 20 years later than in the rest of the civilized world.

Reservists like myself always had a hard time parking on base, as
most spaces were set aside for the brass. My wife never had this
problem. I finally found out why after she drove me to the PX and
parked in a space marked "Reserved." "See?" she said. "Just look
at all the spaces they've set aside for you Reserves."

My wife and I always settle our arguments using standard debate

MESSAGE FROM NORM
 Important Announcement:
 
Due to the  climate of political correctness now pervading America, Kentuckians,  Tennesseans, and West Virginians can no longer be referred to as  "HILLBILLIES".  You must now refer to them as "APPALACHIAN-AMERICANS".
 
Thank  you.

Year after year Bubba's wife pleaded with him to take her fishing but he
kept telling her she would not enjoy it. She, finally, wore him down, he
consented, and early one morning they took off to the lake. They had not
been there very long when the fish began biting. Almost as fast as they
cast, a fish would bite, and they reeled it in. After catching their
limit, Bubba said, "Verna Lou, sweet thang, I'm sorry. You've been good
luck and I'm gonna bring you with me the next time. If you'll mark the
spot where we caught all these fish, we'll go home." On the way home,
Bubba turned to Verna Lou and said, "Sweet thang, how did you mark the
spot were all the fish are so next time I'll know?" "Bubba, darlin', I
put a big 'X' on the side of the boat right down closest to the water."
"Sweet thang, that's about the dumbest thing I ever seed you do. Don't
you know that won't work? We may not get the same boat the next time!"

Fifteen minutes into the flight from Kansas City to Toronto, the
captain announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, one of our engines has failed.
There is nothing to worry about. Our flight will take an hour longer than
scheduled, but we still have three engines left."
Thirty minutes later the captain announced, "One more engine has failed
and the flight will take an additional two hours. But don't worry, we can
fly just fine on two engines."
An hour later the captain announced, "One more engine has failed and
our arrival will be delayed another three hours. But don't worry, we still have one engine left."
A young blonde passenger turned to the man in the next seat and
remarked, "If we lose one more engine, we'll be up here all day!"

My husband works as a service technician for a large exterminating
company. One of the rules of the company is that he has to comfirm each
appointment by phone the night before his service call to that household.
One evening he made such a call, and when a man answered the phone, he
said, "Hi, this is Gary from A to Z Pest Control Company. Your wife phoned us."
There was a long silence, and then my husband heard the man on the other
end say, "Honey, it's for you....someone wants to talk to you about your relatives."

I was carpooling with my friend Craig, he noticed that the
"Check oil" light was on. He pulled into the gas station,
got out of the car, opened the hood, checked the engine oil,
closed the hood, then got back into the car.
"Can we make a quick stop?" He asked.
"Sure," I replied, "what did you need to do?"
"I need to stop by the auto parts place to get a longer dipstick?"
"What do you need a longer one for?" I enquired.
"Because the one I got isn't long enough to reach the oil!"

**** WEIRD HAPPENINS ****

It's once  again time to review the winners of the annual Stella Awards.

The Stellas  are named after 81 year old Stella Liebeck who spilled
coffee on herself and  successfully sued McDonald's. That case
inspired the Stella Awards for the  most frivolous successful
lawsuits in the United  States.

THIS YEAR'S AWARDS GO TO  ....

5TH PLACE (TIED): Kathleen Robertson of Austin, Texas, was awarded  $780,000
by a jury of her peers after breaking her ankle tripping over a toddler  who
was running inside a furniture store. The owners of the store were 
understandably surprised at the verdict, considering the misbehaving toddler was  Ms.
Robertson' son.
(I'd say this was life's payback - Harvey)

5TH  PLACE (TIED): 19 year old Carl Truman of Los Angeles won
$74,000 and medical  expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a
Honda Accord. Mr Truman  apparently did not notice there was someone at the wheel
of the car when he was  trying to steal the hubcaps. (More paybacks - Harvey)

5TH PLACE (TIED):  Terrence Dickson of Bristol, Pennsylvania, was leaving the
house he had just  finished robbing by way of the garage.
He was not able to get the garage door  to go up since the automatic door
opener was malfunctioning. He could not  re-enter the house because the door
connecting the house and garage had locked  when he pulled it shut. (Karma? -
Harvey)

The family was on vacation and  Mr. Dickson found himself locked in the
garage for 8 days. He subsisted on a  case of Pepsi he found and a large bag of dry
dog food. He sued the homeowners  insurance, claiming the situation caused
him undue mental anguish. The Jury  agreed to the tune of$500,000
4TH PLACE: Jerry Williams of Little Rock, Arkansas was  awarded $14,500 and
medical expenses after being bitten on the buttocks by his  next door
neighbor's beagle dog. The beagle was on a chain in its owner's fenced  yard. The award
was less than sought because the jury felt the dog might have  been a little
provoked at the time, as Mr. Williams, who had climbed over the  fence into
the yard, was shooting it repeatedly with a pellet gun.

3RD  PLACE: A Philadelphia restaurant was ordered to pay Amber Carson of
Lancaster,  Pennsylvania, $113,500 after she slipped on a soft drink and broke her
coccyx  (tailbone). The beverage was on the floor because Ms. Carson had
thrown it at  her boyfriend 30 seconds earlier, during an argument

2ND PLACE: Kara Walton of Claymont, Delaware sued the  owner of a Night Club
in a neighboring city when she fell from the bathroom  window to the floor and
knocked out two of her front teeth. This occurred while  Ms. Walton was
trying to sneak in the window of the Ladies Room to avoid paying  the $3.50 cover
charge. She was awarded $12,000 and dental  expenses.
(She can now pay her cover charge out of the 12 Grand! -  Harvey)

1ST PLACE: This year's runaway winner was Mr. Merv Grazinski of  Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma. Mr. Grazinski purchased a brand new Winnebago Motor  home. On his
trip home from an OU football game, having driven onto the freeway,  he set
the cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the driver's seat to go into  the
back and make himself a cup of coffee.

Not surprisingly the RV left  the freeway, crashed and overturned.
Mr. Grazinski sued Winnebago for not  advising him in the owner's manual that
he could not actually do this. The jury  awarded him $1,750,000 plus a ew
Winnebago Motor home. The company actually  changed their manuals on the basis of
this suit, just in case there were any  other complete morons buying their
recreational vehicle.

 Teacher Of The Year... Not

MOBILE, Alabama - Road rage has taken a new turn recently  
when a driving instructor at a local high school became  
enraged when a student of his was cut off by a licensed  
driver. In Hollywood fashion, he yelled, "Follow that car"  
and ordered his student to run the offending driver off the  
road. Once accomplishing this task, the instructor ran out  
of the Driver's Education car and attacked the stunned  
motorist. At press time the instructor is still teaching  
driver safety after being released on bail.

**** Visiting Doc Taz M.D.  D.V.M. ****

The doctor that had  been seeing an 80-year-old woman for
most of her life finally retired. At her  next checkup, the new
doctor told her to bring a list of all the  medicines that had been prescribed
for her.
As the young doctor was  looking through these, his eyes grew
wide as he realized she had a  prescription for birth control pills.
"Mrs.Smith, do you realize these  are BIRTH CONTROL
pills?  "Yes, they help me sleep at night."   "Mrs. Smith, I assure you there
is absolutely NOTHING in
these    that could possibly help you sleep!"
She reached out and patted  the young Doctor's knee.
"Yes, dear, I know that. But every morning, I  grind one up and
mix it in the glass of orange juice that my 16 year old  granddaughter
drinks...and believe me, it helps me sleep at night. 
You gotta like  Grandmas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. Johnson had been waiting entirely too long at the doctor's office. His
appointment was for 9:00 and it was nearly 10:30. Finally, an attractive nurse
appeared at the waiting room door and said, "Let's go get a room." "Honey, I
appreciate the offer," he said, "but I've been waiting so long I'd hate to
lose my spot now!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Patient: Doctor, what I need is something to stir me up;
something to put me in a fighting mood. Did you put
something like that in this prescription?

Doctor: No need for that. You will find that in your bill.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A is for Apple, and B is for Boat,
That used to be right, but now it won't float!
Age before Beauty is what we once said,
But let's be a bit more realistic instead.

Now A's for arthritis; B's the bad back,
C is the chest pains, perhaps cardiac?
D is for dental decay and decline,
E is for eyesight, can't read that top line!

F is for fissures and fluid retention,
G is for gas which I'd rather not mention.
H is high blood pressure--I'd rather it low;
I for incisions with scars you can show.

J is for joints, out of socket, won't mend,
K is for knees that crack when they bend.
L for libido, what happened to sex?
M is for memory, I forget what comes next

N is neuralgia, in nerves way down low;
O is for osteo, the bones that don't grow!
P for prescriptions, I have quite a few,
Just give me a pill and I'll be good as new!

Q is for queasy, is it fatal or flu?
R for reflux, one meal turns to two.
S for sleepless nights, counting my fears,
T for Tinnitus; there are bells in my ears!

U is for urinary; big troubles with flow;
V is for vertigo, that's &quot;dizzy&quot; you know.
W is for worry, NOW what's going 'round?
X is for X ray, and what might be found.

Y is another year I'm left here behind,
Z is for zest that I still have-- in my mind.
I've survived all the symptoms, my body's deployed,
and I've kept twenty-six doctors fully employed !!

~~~~~~~~~~BLONDIE~~~~~~~~~~

**** ON THIS DAY ****

The Candle...

THIS IS A REALLY COOL STORY. NOTICE AT THE END THE DATE THE CANDLE WAS
STARTED. GONNA GIVE YOU GOOSE BUMPS.

I am not going to be the one who lets it die. I found it believable --
angels have walked beside me all my life -- and they still do. A young
university student was home for the summer. She had gone to visit some
friends one evening and time passed quickly as each shared their
various experiences of the past year. She ended up staying longer than
planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a
small town and she lived only a few blocks away. As she walked along
under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and
danger. When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house,
she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she
noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her. She
became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection. Inst!
antly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her,
and she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached
the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home
safely The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl
had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been
there.
Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been
her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help
this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she
could recognize the man, so she told them her story. The police asked
her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could
identify him. She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had
seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been
identified, he immediately broke down and confessed. The officer thanked
Diane for her bravery and asked if there! was anything they could do for
her. She asked if they would ask the man one question ... Diane was
curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him,
he answered, Because she wasn't alone... She had two tall men walking on
either side of her." Moral of the story: Don't underestimate the power
of Prayer! Gives ya goose bumps, doesn't it?

This is to all of you who mean something to me. I pray for your
happiness.The Candle Of Love, Hope and Friendship

"Prints Of Elbows On My Bed"
 
I was but a youth and thoughtless,
As all youths are apt to be;
Though I had a Christian mother
Who had taught me carefully.
 
There came a time when pleasures
Of the world came to allure,
And I no more sought the guidance
Of her love so good and pure.
 
Her tender admonitions fell
But lightly on my ear,
And for the gentle warnings
I felt an inward sneer.
 
But Mother would not yield her boy
To Satan's sinful sway,
And though I spurned her counsel
She knew a better way.
 
She made my room an altar,
A place of secret prayer,
And there she took her burden
And left it in His care.
 
And morning, noon and evening
By that humble bedside low,
She sought the aid of Him who
Understands a mother's woe.
 
And I went my way unheeding,
Careless of the life I led,
Until one day I noticed
Prints of elbows on my bed.
 
Then I saw that she had been there
Praying for her wayward boy,
Who for love of worldly pleasures
Would her peace of mind destroy.
 
Long the conflict raged within me,
Sin against my Mother's prayers,
Sin must yield - for Mother never
While she daily met Him there.
 
And her constant love and patience
Were like coals upon my head,
Together with the imprints
Of her elbows on my bed.
 
And so at last the fight was won,
And I to Christ was led,
And Mother's prayers were answered
By her elbows on my bed.

Trisha Yearwood will re-release her Grammy-nominated and most recent album "Jasper County" with one new track with her new husband, Garth Brooks.
The album's new version, out Feb. 7, will consist of all 12 original tracks plus the new single and duet "Love Will Always Win" with Brooks.
The song also will be available on Brooks' "The Lost Sessions" with six new tracks. That was part of a box set out in November only at Wal-Mart, but now will be spun off as a single CD.
"We are thrilled with how Wal-Mart customers have embraced Garth and this boxed set," said Wal-Mart vice president David Porter.

"Raspberry Ice Cream"
 
1pt Fresh raspberries
1.5c Sugar
0.5 Lemon; juice of
2lg Eggs
2c Heavy or whipping cream
1c Milk

 
Compare to other fresh fruit, raspberries are intensely flavorful and very tart, so to make ice cream you need less fruit and more sugar.
Toss the raspberries, 3/4 cup sugar, and the lemon juice together in a bowl.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes.
Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
Whisk in the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more.
Pour in the heavy cream and milk and whisk to blend.
Drain the juice from the raspberries into the cream mixture and blend.
Mash the raspberries until pureed and stir them into the cream mixture.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.
Makes 1 generous quart.
NOTE: If you prefer a chunkier raspberry ice cream, return the raspberries to the refrigerator after pouring off the juice. After the ice cream stiffens, about 2 minutes before it is done, add the whole raspberries.
 


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

When spacecraft visit other planets, why can't they take color photos?

In order to send pictures back, they are typically digital images transmitted by radio waves. It is my understanding that digital black&white cameras consume less power, are simpler, more reliable, and higher resolution than digital color cameras. Instead of having two visible-light cameras on a mission, they send one good b&w and a series of filters that can be used to take three filtered pictures and assemble the three component colors back here on earth to create the true-color image. So, in a very real sense, they do take "color photos," they just do it one color at a time. For many space related tasks and research, knowing the colors is not a very important thing - but they are good for impressing the public.

Also, keep in mind that the pictures that we are getting today are coming from spacecraft that was launched 25 to 30 years ago or more. It's easy to sit here in the 21st century and think that it shouldn't be that much trouble to send out a 2.1 megapixel digital camera with 2 AA batteries and make the spacecraft send back 50 or more photos. But in the late 60's and early 70's you would be hard pressed to make an unmanned space craft send back some sort of communication let alone a high res color photo.

LAST CALL Y'ALL
A pilgrim was walking across the prairie during the days of the Old
West
when he came across a small town. Passing through the town, he
noticed a
saloon and decided to stop and quench his thirst. After ordering a
beer, he
stood at the bar and observed the other clientele in the saloon.

Suddenly the saloon door swung open, and a cowboy came running in
yelling
"Big Jake's comin'!" Within seconds the establishment had cleared,
leaving
the pilgrim and his beer alone at the bar.

Sure enough, a huge seven-and-a-half foot, 500 pound cowboy came
swaggering
in, tearing out the front door frame with his broad shoulders. The
cowboy
looked around the saloon, marched over to the pilgrim, picked him up
by the
scruff of the neck, and threw him over the bar, bellowing "Gimme a
drink!"
The pilgrim complied, placing the almost-full bottle next to the
glass on
the bar. The cowboy tossed back the drink, then bit the neck off of
the
bottle and emptied that too.

At that point, the pilgrim, quaking in his boots, asked "Sir, would
you care
for another?" To which the cowboy replied, "Nope. I gotta go. Big
Jake's comin'!"
