THOUGHT FOR TODAY: The easiest way to make
your old car run better, is to check the prices of a new car.



We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the "seniors special" was  two
eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $1.99.
"Sounds good," my wife said. "But I don't want the eggs."
"Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents  because
you're ordering a la carte," the waitress warned her.
"You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?" my wife asked 
incredulously.
"Yes" she was told.
"I'll take the special."
"How do you want your eggs?"
"Raw and in the shell," my wife replied. She took the two eggs  home.
DON'T MESS WITH SENIORS. We've been around the block more than  once.

Little Sally came running in from school. "Mommy! Mommy! At show and tell, Billy showed us something that's six inches long, has two nuts, and can make me very fat!" Gasping, the woman said, "Sally! What on earth did he show you?" The girl replied, "An Almond Joy!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was teaching a student in my vocational class the proper way to use a wrench. I told him to think of his watch: clockwise to install a nut, counterclockwise to remove it. "But sir," he said after a moment of silence, "I wear a digital."

My friend had been promoted and transferred to another branch of the Commerce bank where she worked. Hoping her new staff would appreciate it, Sandy decided to organize a party and arranged a meeting after the branch closed. She explained her plans and asked those who would come alone to raise one hand and those who would be accompanied to raise two. The police arrived within minutes.

A pedestrian walking by had seen the bank staff with their hands above their heads. Thinking a robbery was in progress, he had raced to a phone booth and dialed 9-1-1.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We were sitting out back when the gas man, obviously annoyed, arrived to check our meter. We asked him what was wrong, and he told us that the previous day he had gone to a neighbor's house to read the meter. Since no one was home, he had let himself into their backyard. As he stepped through the gate, a large, vicious- looking Rottweiler had chased him off. He left a note in their mailbox saying he'd return the next day and asking the owners to tie the dog up. And they had--to the gas meter! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was living in the mountains above Denver when my college  
buddy, Gary, arrived in his ancient Maserati sports car.  
He had just driven it from Ohio, and as he pulled into my  
driveway, the car broke down.  

Calls to auto-supply houses and garages in search of re-  
placement parts proved futile. The 1962 model was simply  
too rare. Responses ranged from "Mas-a-what?" to "You've  
got to be kidding."  

One guy just laughed.  

I was at the end of the listings in the Yellow Pages when  
I dialed Victor's Garage. "Vic," I said, "you're my last  
hope. Do you carry any parts for a 1962 Maserati?"  

There was a long pause. Finally, Victor cleared his throat.  
"Yes," he replied. "Oil."

The secretary came in late for work for the third day in a row.
The boss called her into his office and said, "Now look Sharon, I
know we had a wild fling for a while, but that's over. I expect
you to conduct yourself like any other employee around here. Who
told you you could come and go as you please around here?"
Sharon simply smiled, lit up a cigarette, and while exhaling
said, "My lawyer."

 An Irish priest is driving down to New York and gets stopped for 
speeding.The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath and 
then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.
He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?"
"Just water," says the priest.
The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?"
The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it  again!"

A housewife called up a pet store and said, "Send me
thirty-thousand cockroaches at once."
"What in the world do you want with thirty-thousand
cockroaches?" asked the astonished clerk.
"Well," replied the woman, "I am moving today and my
lease says I must leave the premises in exactly the
same condition I found them."

  A blind man enters a Ladies' Bar by mistake. He finds his way to a bar stool and orders a drink. After sitting there for a while he yells to the bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?" The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet.

  In a very angry voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, you should know five things:

  One - The bartender is a blonde girl.
  Two - The bouncer is a blonde girl.
  Three - I'm a six-foot, 200-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.

  Four - The woman sitting next to me is blonde and is a professional weightlifter.

  Five - The lady to your right is a blonde and is a professional wrestler.

  Now think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"

  The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and declares, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."

REDNECK MAMA
A woman walks into the downtown welfare office, trailed by 15 kids...

"WOW," the social worker exclaims,"are they ALL YOURS???"

"Yep they are all mine," the flustered momma sighs, having heard that question a thousand times before.  She says, "Sit down Leroy." All the children rush to find seats.

"We ll," says the social worker, "then you must be here to sign up.  I'll need all your children's names."
"This one's my oldest - he is Leroy."

"OK, and who's next?"

"Well, this one he is Leroy, also."

The social worker raises an eyebrow but continues.  One by one, through the oldest four, all boys, all named Leroy.  Then she is introduced to the eldest girl, named Leighroy!

"All right," says the case worker.  "I'm seeing a pattern here.
Are they ALL named Leroy?"

Their Momma replied, "Well, yes-it makes it easier.  When it is time to get them out of bed and ready for school, I yell, 'Leroy!' An' when it's time for dinner, I just yell 'Leroy!' an' they all comes arunnin.' An 'if I need to stop the kid who's running into the street, I just yell 'Leroy' and all of them stop.  It's the smartest idea I ever had, namin' them all Leroy."

The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively, "But what if you just want ONE kid to come, and not the whole bunch?"
"I call them by their last names."

An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun in one hand pulling a male
buffalo with the other.  He says to the waiter, "Want coffee."    The
waiter says, "Sure, Chief, coming right up."  

He gets the Indian a tall mug of coffee.  The Indian drinks the coffee
down in one gulp, turns and blasts the buffalo with the shotgun, causing
parts of the animal to splatter everywhere, then just walks out. 
 
 The next morning the Indian returns.  He has his shotgun in one  hand
pulling another male buffalo with the other.  He walks up to the counter
and says to the waiter, "Want coffee."  

The waiter says, "Whoa, Tonto!  We're still cleaning up your mess From
yesterday.  What was all that about, anyway?" 
 
 The Indian smiles and proudly says, "Training for position in United
States Congress:  Come in, drink coffee, shoot the bull,  leave mess for
others to clean up, disappear for rest of day."

"Doctor, I can't find a comfortable position to sit."
The doctor examined Harry and said,
"I'm not surprised that you're having trouble sitting;
you have a good case of hemorrhoids."
He then gave Harry a supply of suppositories, and told him,
"Go home now, and use one of these each morning
and one at night until they're gone.
Then come back and we'll see how you are."
Harry went home, and in a couple of weeks returned,
still complaining of hemorrhoids.
"Well," said the doctor, "Did you use all of the suppositories?"
"Yes, I did," said Harry.
"I took one every morning and every night as you instructed,
even though they were pretty hard to swallow."
"For all the good they did me,
I might just as well have shoved them up my a++!"

A story is told of a Jewish man who was riding on the subway reading an Arab
newspaper. A friend of his, who happened to be riding in the same subway car
 noticed this strange phenomenon.
Very upset, he approached the newspaper reader: "Moshe, have you lost your
mind? Why are you reading an Arab newspaper?"
Moshe replied: "I used to read the Jewish newspaper, but what did I find?
Jews being persecuted, Israel being attacked, Jews disappearing through
assimilation and intermarriage, Jews living in poverty. So, I switched to
the Arab newspaper.
"Now what do I find? Jews own all the banks, Jews control the media, Jews
are all rich and powerful, Jews rule the world. The news is so much better!"

While the group of doctors I worked for were having their office space renovated, we on the staff continued working. The receptionist often helped the administrator with decorating and final touches. One day they were working on the shower curtain in the doctors' change room when a phone call came in for the administrator. The clerk who answered apologized, saying, "He can't come to the phone right now -- he's in the shower with Melissa."

When I was a reporter, I spent several years covering the police courts. One day I was walking down a hallway with an attorney, engrossed in a discussion on a point of law. When he opened a door and walked through, I followed, preoccupied with the matter we had been debating. Suddenly, he stopped. "Can I ask you something?" he asked.
"Sure," I replied.
"Do you really think you should be in the men's washroom?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Extremely tired of nagging my children to do their everyday chores, I typed up a list of rules and went over all 30 with them.

A little while later, my husband walked over and read the posted list, looked at me and said, "God made only ten Commandments."

A noted psychiatrist was a guest at an academic function,  
and his hostess naturally broached the subject in which  
the doctor was most at ease. "Would you mind telling me,  
Doctor," she asked, "how you detect a mental deficiency  
in somebody who appears completely normal?"  

"Nothing is easier," he replied. "You ask a simple question  
which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the person  
hesitates, that puts you on the track."  

"What sort of question?"  

"Well, you might ask him, 'Captain Cook made three trips  
around the world and died during one of them. Which one?'"  

The hostess thought a moment, then said with a nervous  
laugh, "You wouldn't happen to have another example would  
you? I must confess I don't know much about history."

I overheard my father telling a family friend about my newly-  
assigned mission in the U.S. Coast Guard. I work on a cutter  
that escorts all cruise ships and international vessels under  
the bridges in California's Bay Area.  

But what my father told his friend was, "She's involved in  
some sort of escort service."

My 20th high school class reunion was held at a hotel on the same night that another school's 10th-year reunion was taking place.

While my girl friends and I were in the rest room talking, some unfamiliar women entered. After their stares became uncomfortable, we turned toward them. One of the women said, "Don't mind us. We just wanted to see how we'd look in another 10 years."

Serotonin linked to atherosclerosis  

DENVER, -- A less active brain serotonin system is asso-  
ciated with early hardening of the arteries, University  
of Pittsburgh researchers said. The findings -- the first  
to establish a link between serotonin messages in the  
brain and atherosclerosis -- could lead to an entirely  
new strategy for preventing heart disease and stroke,  
said Dr. Matthew F. Muldoon, associate professor of medi-  
cine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. "Many  
of the known risk factors for heart disease and stroke --  
high blood pressure and cholesterol, obesity, diabetes,  
smoking and lack of exercise -- can, to some extent, be  
controlled by our lifestyle choices," said Muldoon.  
"Until now, no one had studied the possibility that brain  
abnormalities could explain why some people make these  
poor lifestyle choices and have multiple risk factors for  
heart disease." The findings were presented at the 64th  
Annual Scientific Conference of the American Psycho-  
somatic Society in Denver.

Genes linked to increased risk of AMD
  

NEW YORK, -- Seventy-four percent of U.S. patients with  
age-related macular degeneration carry certain variants in  
one or two genes that increase their risk. Researchers at  
Columbia University Medical Center pinpointed the role that  
two genes -- Factor H and Factor B -- play in the develop-  
ment of nearly three out of four cases of age-related  
macular degeneration, a devastating eye disease that affects  
more than 10 million people in the United States. The study,  
led by Rando Allikmets, showed that several variants in the  
Factor H gene significantly increase the risk of developing  
age-related macular degeneration. Factor H encodes a protein  
that helps shut down an immune response against bacterial or  
viral infection, once the infection is eliminated. People  
with these inherited risk-increasing variations of Factor H  
are less able to control inflammation caused by infectious  
triggers, which may spark age-related macular degeneration  
later in life. The findings are published in Nature Genetics.

Genes affecting blood pressure change  

AUGUSTA, Ga., -- As children transform into adults some of  
the genes involved in controlling their blood pressure  
change as well, a U.S. study found. The study of 500 black  
and white identical and fraternal twins showed that changes  
in gene expression between ages 14 and 18 accounted for up  
to one third of the blood pressure variation that occurred  
by age 18, said Dr. Harold Snieder, genetic epidemiologist  
at the Medical College of Georgia. "We know this is a  
period of great change, between 14 and 18 years of age, as  
children are growing, hormones are raging and the stability  
of adulthood has not yet been reached," said Snieder. Those  
factors prompted Snieder and his colleagues to look at what  
happens to blood pressure and related hemodynamics -- such  
as heart rate and how much blood the heart pumps with each  
beat -- near the beginning and end of the biologically  
tumultuous times. The findings were presented at the 64th  
Annual Scientific Conference of the American Psychosomatic  
Society in Denver.

SLEEP DEFICIT CAN CAUSE LEARNING, BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS  

A study finds most fifth graders fail to get enough sleep, a  
deficit that can lead to learning and behavior problems. The  
survey of 199 students, conducted by researchers at Ball  
State University in Muncie, Ind., and published in the  
Journal of School Health, shows most experience sleep loss  
and feel sleepy during the day at least two to four times a  
week. Nearly half have trouble waking up on school days.  
"Sleep affects the health and well-being of children and  
plays a key role in preventing disease and injury, stability  
of mood and the ability to learn," says Denise Amschler,  
professor of physiology and health science. She says elemen-  
tary school children require an average of 10 hours to 11  
hours of sleep a night, and few get it. "Parents need to  
monitor their children's sleep behaviors, including talking  
with their youngsters about their sleep attitude and experi-  
ences," Amschler advises.  


**** ON THIS DAY ****

Standing Tall on a Surfboard in Midlife
By Mike Gordon

A wave rose behind me, but it was barely a swell. If I had
been standing instead of lying on a surfboard, it might have
been tall enough to splash my calves.

Still, I stroked the water like a man about to be swallowed
by a shark. If the board was moving, I couldn't tell. I
started to think this was an awful idea, that maybe this
was not meant to be.

Maybe I had waited too long to learn how to surf.

Middle-aged egos can be painful to watch. A man can turn
forty, spot a few gray hairs and do all kinds of things to
prove he's still younger. Some men have affairs with leggy
redheads, others start jogging. I decided to make good on
a promise I made to myself when I was twelve.

I was going to learn to surf.

I often told myself it wasn't right to have grown up in
Hawai'i and not have learned how to surf. All my life,
this concept got steady reinforcement. Everywhere, I
saw people with surfboards - young people, old people,
men, women. Once, I saw a five-year-old "carving wave."
Another time, I saw a dog "hang ten." How hard could
it be to learn this?

And yet, I didn't do anything about it. Instead, I made
excuses about not having enough time and not knowing
anyone who would teach me.

Then I saw a yellow flyer for a surf school in Waikiki,
and the child in me spoke up, telling me it was time.

That was how I found myself floating off Diamond Head at
a surf break called Tonggs. My arms were stroking the
water as if my life had no other purpose. The wave
scooped me up as my instructor grabbed the back of my
surfboard and gave me a quick shove forward.

I was moving, but I wasn't surfing. Before I could
persuade myself to react, the ride was over. I'd
blown it on my first attempt.

My instructor didn't know what to make of this. Then
he shoved my board toward shore so quickly, I thought
he was angry. "Paddle, now!" he shouted.

What happened next didn't take long: I stood up. I
fell down. The wave passed me by.

Each new wave generated the same result: a wipeout
with all the grace of a drunken belly flop.

Another wave rose like a dare. And then it happened. It
was over in twenty seconds, but I'll remember it forever.
Even if it never happens again.

I'll remember the sky was slightly overcast, and the ocean
was an undulating slab of gray-blue, streaked with white
breakers. I'll remember the taste of salt water on my
lips and the ache between my shoulder blades.

Prayer Requests
I will go into the BaylorAlsaints Hospital March 13th for my third
back surgery.
I would appreciate your prayers for everything to okay in my
recovery.
Thanks and God bless. James W. Roden

Please pray that Mr Henderson, a terminal paitent and non-believer,
opens his heart
to Jesus's love and accepts his promise of life eternal before it is
too late. 
Pray his remaining time on earth is easied by God's comfort.

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

How did the sandwich get its name?

The word sandwich was born in London one night in 1762 when an English nobleman, John Montagu, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich (1718-1792), was too busy gambling to stop for a meal even though he was hungry for some food.

The legend goes that he ordered a waiter to bring him roast-beef between two slices of bread. The Earl was able to continue his gambling while eating his snack; and from that incident, we have inherited that quick-food product that we now know as the sandwich.

The title, Earl of ???Sandwich???, comes from Old English (O.E.) Sandwic, and literally means ???sand village???, ???Sandy Place???, or ???Place on the Sand???. The old English "wic" is a loan word from Latin vicus, ???hamlet???, which also gives us the word vicinity. The first recorded mention of the town was around 640 A.D.



****A PARTING THOUGHT ****

Some politicians get contributions from the rich and votes from the
poor on the pretense that they are protecting each from the other.

LAST CALL Y'ALL

A man goes into a pet store with his pet duck. I've got a "Dry Duck", he tells the owner. He tries to drink water, but he can't. The store owner looks at the duck and says, " I see the problem. Your duck's bill is too long, and so he can't drink enough water. All I have to do is file some of his bill off so he can drink. "How much will it cost?" says the man. "Oh, about 20 bucks ought to do it", says the owner. "20 BUCKS?" says the man. "Heck, I can file his bill off myself for that kinda money." The owner cautions the man that if he files too much of the duck's bill, the duck will drink Too Much water, and drown. "I'll take my chances", says the man, and he leaves. The next day, the same man comes into the pet store, walks up to the owner and says, "I want to buy a duck." "AHA, says the owner, "you filed too much of your duck's bill off and it drowned, didn't you." "No, said the man, the duck was already dead when I took his head out of the vise."
