TGIF
FRIDAY MARCH 31,2006
THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
An open mind is
wonderful if a matching mouth doesn't go with it.
A brunette arrives at the stockyard,
inspects a bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will
sell it for $599, no less. After paying him, she drives to the nearest town
to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news.
She walks into the telegraph office, and says, "I
want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I've bought a bull for our
ranch. I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so
we can haul it home." The telegraph operator explains that he'll be
glad to help her, then adds, "It's just 99 cents a word."
Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette
only has $1 left. She realizes that she'll only be able to send her sister one
word.
After a few minutes of thinking, she nods and
says, "I want you to send her the word "comfortable."
The operator shakes his head. "How is she ever
going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and
drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her just the
word
"comfortable?"
The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde.
The word's big.
She'll read it Very

Donald was convinced that he is a mouse! All his family and
friends were trying to convince him otherwise, but to no avail. So the final
option was to take him to a psychologist.
The doctor and Donald spent
a bit over a year on the treatment, 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. Finally
one day:
Doctor: What are you, my son?
Donald: I am a man,
Doc.
Doctor: So you not a mouse?
Donald: A mouse? Ha! Ha! Ha! No
way, Doc. I am human!
Everybody along with the psychologist went out
that night for a party to celebrate this great achievement. On the way to
the bar, Donald sees a cat on the street. He gets all scared and hides behind
the car.
Doctor: Oh my God Donald! Don't you know that you are not a
mouse?
Donald: Yes Doc. I know I am not a mouse. But does the kitty
know I am not a mouse too? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Three
people were trying to get into heaven. Peter asked the first, "Who's there?"
"It's me, Albert Jones," the voice replied. St. Peter let him
in.
Then St. Peter asked the second one the second same question,
"Who's there?" "It's me, Charlie Jones." And St. Peter let him
in.
Finally he turns to the third, asking the same question, "Who's
there?" "It is I, Verla Chapman," answered the third.
"Oh, great,"
muttered St. Peter. "Another one of those English
teachers." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The four newlyweds spent
their honeymoon at the Niagara Falls. They occupied adjoining rooms, sat at the
same table, and were inseparable.
One evening after dinner as they were
returning to their rooms, there was lightning and the lights went off. It was
pitch dark, and groping their way they made it to their rooms, and quietly
undressed.
Jack a religious fellow knelt to pray. Just as he completed
his prayer, the lights came on that he saw that he was with his friend's wife.
He jumped up and dashed for the door
"Too late to hurry now," said the
girl "Joe never prays!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I love how the government keeps telling us that the
weather affects gasoline prices.
For example, when the weather was rainy
and cold, it takes more fuel to heat homes, so the price of oil goes
up.
And when the weather is warm and sunny, well, then people take more
vacations -- they drive further and use more gas.
And the only time
weather makes the price go down is when it 'snows in hell.' That's about the
only time. - Jay Leno ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In
a fur store the woman says to the saleslady "Will a small deposit hold it until
my husband does something unforgivable?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A hangover is something to occupy a
head that wasn't used the night
before. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why is it that we
travel hundreds of miles to get away from everyone at home and then send them
postcards that say, "Wish you were here"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A man dropped in on his
neighbor and found the neighbor's wife watching the baseball game. He was
amazed, he said, to discover that she was a baseball fan. "I'm not, really," she
answered. "But when Joe goes out to the kitchen, I'm the designated
watcher." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After living in our
house for four years, we were moving out of state. My husband had backed the
truck up to our garage door so that we could start loading all of the
boxes.
Just then one of our neighbors came walking across the lawn
carrying a plate full of muffins.
"Isn't that thoughtful," my husband
said to me. "They must have realized that we packed our kitchen
stuff."
The neighbor stuck out his hand and boomed, "Welcome to the
neighborhood!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Doug: Do you wear the
pants in your house?
Bill: I sure do! But you may not see them if I'm
wearing too long an apron. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A farmer
and his recently hired hand were eating an early breakfast of
biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, bacon and coffee that the
farmer's wife had prepared for them. Thinking of all the work
they had to get done that day, the farmer told the hired man he
might as well go ahead and eat his dinner too.
The hired man didn't say a word, but filled his plate a
second time and proceeded to eat.
After awhile the
farmer said, "We've got so much work to do today, you might as
well eat your supper now too."
Again, the hired man didn't
respond but refilled his plate a third time and continued to
eat.
Finally, after eating his third plate of food, the
hired man pushed back his chair & began to take off his
shoes.
"What are you doing?" the farmer asked.
The hired man replied, "I don't work after
supper." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [I know it's an old
one, but it's a classic!]
Jim had an awful day fishing on
the lake, sitting in the blazing sun all day without catching a
single one. On his way home, he stopped at the supermarket and
ordered four catfish.
He told the fish
salesman, "Pick four large ones out and throw them at me, will
you?"
"Why do you want me to throw them at you?"
"Because I want to tell my wife that I caught them."
"Okay, but I suggest that you take the orange roughy."
"But why?"
"Because your wife came in earlier today
and said that if you came by, I should tell you to get the
roughy. She prefers that for supper tonight."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bob is a favorite conductor
among commuters on the Long Island Rail Road. He has great rapport with the
regulars, but occasionally runs into a problem rider. One passenger, for
instance, seemed irritated at having to hand over his ticket to be
punched.
"Where are you going today?" Bob asked, smiling.
"Well,
what does the ticket say?" replied the traveler sarcastically.
"Um, it
says you're on the wrong train," Bob informed him.
"What am I supposed to
do now?" asked the flustered passenger.
Returning the punched card, Bob
replied calmly, "Ask the ticket."

LEWIS-THE CRAZY
CAT-TERRORIZES TOWN
FAIRFIELD, Conn. (March 29)- Residents of
the neighborhood of Sunset Circle say they have been terrorized by a crazy cat
named Lewis. Lewis for his part has been uniquely cited, personally issued a
restraining order by the town's animal control officer.
"He looks like
Felix the Cat and has six toes on each foot, each with a long claw," Janet
Kettman, a neighbor said Monday. "They are formidable weapons."
The
neighbors said those weapons, along with catlike stealth, have allowed Lewis to
attack at least a half dozen people and ambush the Avon lady as she was getting
out of her car.
Some of those who were bitten and scratched ended up
seeking treatment at area hospitals.
Animal Control Officer Rachel
Solveira placed a restraining order on him. It was the first time such an action
was taken against a cat in Fairfield.
In effect, Lewis is under house
arrest, forbidden to leave his home.
Solveira also arrested the cat's
owner, Ruth Cisero, charging her with failing to comply with the restraining
order and reckless endangerment. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& You can join The Funnies IT'S FREE To subscribe, Click on link

ON THIS DAY ****
Being thankful
LIKE A BANK ACCOUNt A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised
and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair
fashionably coifed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved
to a nursing home today. His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making
the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the
nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.
As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual
description of his tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on
his window."I love it," he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old
having just been presented with a new puppy."Mr. Jones, you haven't seen the
room; just wait." "That doesn't have anything to do with it," he replied
"Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or
not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my
mind. I already decided to love it. "It's a decision
I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed
recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work,
or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and
as long as my eyes open, I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories
I've stored away. Just for this time in my life. Old
age is like a bank account. You withdraw from what you've put in. So, my advice
to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories!
Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I
am still depositing." Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred. 2. Free your mind from
worries. 3. Live simply. 4. Give more. 5. Expect
less.

simply being together" "HUGS

COUNTRY MUSIC NEWS ****
Country Stars React to Buck Owens'
PassingChesney, Evans, Paisley and Yoakam Praise Hall of
Fame Member's Artistry
The music world sustained a major loss when Buck
Owens died Saturday (March 25) in Bakersfield, Calif., but the Country Music
Hall of Fame member's spirit will continue to live in the music of artists he
befriended and encouraged.
Kenny
Chesney was in Lexington, Ky., for a concert when
he learned of Owens' death at age 76.
"Obviously, we all remember his
music," he told CMT Insider. "He was an icon in the music business and
means a lot to a lot of people through his music."
Owens was particularly
optimistic about Chesney's future -- even when the young singer-songwriter
wasn't quite sure about his own career.
"After a couple of years on being
on the road, I had a couple of albums under my belt," Chesney said. "Not really
a whole lot was happening [in Chesney's career]. I was sitting in my chair,
almost feeling out of place at the CMA Awards one year. He walked over and said,
'I just want you to know, Kenny, that I really believe in you. I think you're a
really good singer and a really good performer.'"
Owens told Chesney he
only needed three minutes -- the length of a hit song -- for his career to
ignite.
"You're three minutes away from being a really big star," Owens
told him. "If you find a great song, you're three minutes away from really
getting on the right road and being successful."
Chesney said their paths
crossed again two years ago at the Academy of Country Music Awards show in Las
Vegas.
"He walked up to me and said, 'You got your three minutes, didn't
you? And you got six ... and you got nine ... and you got
12 ... and you got 15. You've got a bunch of minutes. You've got a
bunch of hit songs.' He gave me a big hug and said, 'I told you.'
"I will
always remember his music and the kind of style and sound he had that was very
identifiable, but I'll remember those conversations that he had with me and the
belief he had in me a lot more ... forever."
Sara Evans recorded a cover
version of Owens' 1965 hit, "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail," for her 1997 debut
album.
"He wrote it with Harlan Howard," Evans told CMT Radio during an
interview Monday (March 27). "Because I recorded that song, I was able to meet
him and sing with him in his dressing room. But before that, I always loved Buck
Owens. I grew up listening to him, of course, and had seen him on Hee
Haw. He's just a legend, and it's really, really a sad loss to the
world."
Brad Paisley enjoyed a particularly close friendship with Owens.
A frequent performer at Owens' Crystal Palace restaurant and club in
Bakersfield, Paisley would even join him onstage there for free on New Year's
Eve -- a night when any country act can demand top dollar for an appearance.
When Paisley was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry in 2001, Owens granted his
request and loaned him his mustard-colored rhinestone jacket for the evening.
Paisley had admired it for years on the cover of Owens' Carnegie Hall
Concert album from the 1960s.
"My friend, Buck Owens, was one of a
kind -- a larger-than-life music legend who reinvented country music, epitomized
musicianship and was the inspiration for countless artists including the
Beatles," Paisley said in a prepared statement. "He loved to become friends with
other musicians and loved to pass advice on to young guys like me. He was very
giving of his talents and wisdom. If any good can come from his passing, I hope
that it's a renewed interest in his achievements and, more importantly, his
incredible Bakersfield Sound. He deserves to be remembered as one of the most
important artists in all of music history."
Dwight Yoakam shined the
light on Owens and the Bakersfield Sound during the '80s.
"I was
devastated by Buck's passing since I had talked to him just a couple days ago,"
Yoakam said in a statement. "And even though he seemed in a somewhat fragile
physical state, he was emotionally exuberant and still living life in a forward
motion, discussing a variety of plans for his future. My thoughts and prayers
are with his three sons, Buddy Allen, Michael and Johnny, his grandchildren and
his girlfriend Karen. I will cherish, forever, the musical moments he graciously
shared with me during his life. I will be eternally grateful for his fatherly
chastisements, encouragement and, ultimately, his friendship and love. I will
miss him deeply."
**** TODAY'S USELESS FACT ****
Is it healthier to eat a big piece of
dessert all at once, or to eat small bites of the same piece gradually over the
course of a day?
It's healthier not to eat a big piece of dessert at all, of course. But
otherwise it would be nominally "healthier" to eat small pieces gradually over
the course of the day, as this would spread out the impact on your blood sugar.
Also, while eating gradually you may find that you can be satisfied with less,
which would definitely be healthier.
