MONDAY JUNE 12,2006

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:I don't know if we'll
ever get a cure for poverty, but the way taxes and prices are going up, we've
got a sure cure for wealth!
An elderly
nun who was living in a convent next to a construction site noticed the
coarse language of the workers and felt she should spend some time with
them to correct their ways.
She decided she would take her lunch, sit
with the workers and talk with them for a while. So she put her small
sandwich in a brown bag and walked over to the spot where the men were
eating.
As she approached the group she said, with a big smile, "Do you
men know Jesus Christ?"
They shook their heads and looked at each
other. Then one of the workers looked up into the steelworker and yelled,
"Anybody up there know Jesus Christ!?"
One of the steelworkers yelled
down, "Yeah! Why!?"
The worker yelled back, "His wife's here with his
lunch." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A man
goes into a store and asks the clerk for some Polish Sausage. The clerk looked
at him and asks, "Are you Polish?" The guy, clearly offended, says, "Well,
yes I am. But let me ask you something. If I asked you for Italian Sausage,
would you ask me if I was Italian? Or, if I asked for German Bratwurst, would
you ask me if I was German? Or if I asked you for a Kosher Hot Dog, would you
ask me if I wasJewish? Or, if I asked you for a Taco, would you ask me if I was
Mexican? Would ya huh? Would ya?" The clerk says, "Well, no." Getting more
worked up, the guy rants on, "And if I asked you for some Irish whiskey,
would you ask me if I was Irish? What about Canadian Bacon, would you ask me if
I was Canadian?" The clerk replies, "Well, I probably wouldn't." With
self-indignation, the guy says, "Well, all right then, why did you ask me if I'm
Polish just because I asked for Polish sausage?" The clerk replies, "Because
you're at Home
Depot." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of
my most difficult tasks as a flight attendant is to enforce rules while
keeping customers happy. The electronic equipment that comes on board
creates the greatest challenge. I walk the aisle asking passengers to turn
off computers, electronic games and cell phones, which can create
interference in communications between the pilot and the air traffic control
tower. During one landing, a man persistently kept his cell phone at
his ear. I confronted him and said, "Sir, you cannot talk on your
phone until we reach the gate." "I am not talking," he replied. "I'm
listening." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A
Texan was standing admiring the beauty of Niagara Falls when a New Yorker
standing next to him said sarcastically: "I bet you don't have anything like
this in Texas."
"No," said the Texan, "but we've got plumbers who could
fix it!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've
been divorced for seven years now. Each year I celebrate the anniversary of my
divorce by watching my wedding video, backwards. It's very therapeutic. First,
you see the bouquet flying into my hands, we take the rings off, we look at each
other and say, "Do I?" and march back up the
aisle." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I
don't understand couples who break up and get back together, especially couples
who divorce and remarry. That's like pouring milk on a bowl of cereal, tasting
it and saying, "This milk is sour. Well, I'll put it back in the refrigerator,
maybe it will be okay tomorrow."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The truck driver
looked suspiciously at the soup he had just been served in a backwoods
eatery. It contained dark flecks of seasoning, but two of the spots were
suspicious. "Hey," he called out to the waitress, "These particles in my soup
- aren't they foreign objects?" She is scrutinizing his bowl. "No, sir!" she
reassured him. "Those things live around
here." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A man
was going out of town and needed to board his horse for a
couple of months. He asked a local farmer about it and was told, "Sure,
but I charge $50 per week, and I keep the manure."
The fellow can't
afford that, so the farmer referred him to ol' Jones, down the road. When
approached with the request, Jones said, "Yup, I can do it for $40 a week,
and I keep the manure."
This is still too much, and Jones suggested that
he try Mr. Brown. When our desperate friend asked Mr. Brown, he is surprised
to hear, "Sure, Sonny. I'll be glad to for $5 a month."
With
delight, the young man exclaimed, "WOW! I suppose for that price you'll
want to keep the manure."
The old man looked at him with kind of a
squint, and replied, "Feller, for $5 a month, there ain't gonna be
none!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Disney
World is such a friendly place. A little boy I had never met before came up to
me and wrapped his arms around me, and gave me a great big hug as his mother
took our picture. It was thrilling, that is, until his mother smiled and said,
"Thanks, Goofy!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A blonde lady
motorist was about two hours from
San Diego when she was flagged down by
a man whose
truck had broken down. The man walked up to the car
and asked, "Are you going to San Diego?"
"Sure," answered the
blonde, "Do you need a lift?"
"Not for me. I'll be spending the next
three hours fixing my truck. My problem is I've got two chimpanzees in the
back which have to be taken to the San Diego Zoo. They're a bit stressed,
already; so, I don't want to keep them on the road all day. Could you
possibly take them to the zoo for me? I' ll give you $100 for your trouble."
"I'd be happy to," said the blonde. So, the two
chimpanzees were
ushered into the back seat of the
blonde's car and carefully strapped
into their seat belts and off they went.
Five hours later, the truck
driver was driving through the heart of San Diego when suddenly he was
horrified!! There was the blonde walking down the street and holding hands
with the two chimps, ... much to
the amusement of a big crowd!
With a screech of brakes, he pulled off the road and ran over to
the blonde. "What the heck are you doing here?" he demanded. "I gave
you $100 to take these chimpanzees to the zoo."
"Yes, I know you
did," said the blonde, "But we had money left over; so, now, we're going to
Sea
World. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "How
annoying is this? Senator Hillary Clinton calling for a return of the 55 mile an
hour speed limit. When people in L.A. heard about this, they said, 'What? Cars
can go that fast?'" --Jay
Leno ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One
weekend my friend Sally, a nurse, was looking after her six-year-old nephew
when he fell off a playground slide and hit his head. Worried that he might
have a concussion, she checked him all night. Every hour, she'd gently
shake him and ask, "What's your name?" Soon, he began moaning in protest each
time she entered the room. When Sally went in at 5:00 A.M., she found
something white on his forehead. Leaning close, she saw a crayon-scrawled
message taped to his forehead. It read: "My name is
Daniel." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "President
Bush has proposed sweeping immigration changes, which is pretty amazing when you
consider before he became president, Bush thought immigration was the sincerest
form of flattery." --Jay
Leno ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My
sister-in-law Bonnie was very busy one day working in her house. She had just
gotten to the basement after quite a few trips up and down when she heard
the telephone ring upstairs. Tiredly, she ran back up the stairs only to
hear a solicitor on the other end. "Hello, is this Bonnie
D?" "Yes." "We are calling people in your area and would like to know if
you would help us by participating in a brief survey." Without missing a
beat, she told them... "I'm very busy right now. You will have to survey your
own
briefs." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Some
excitement at the White House yesterday. The Secret Service caught a man trying
to climb over the White House fence. When they caught the man, the Secret
Service said, 'Not so fast. You have three more years, Mr. President.'" --Conan
O'Brien ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A
man walked into a grocery store and announced: "I want all the rotten eggs you
have."
"What do you want with rotten eggs?" asked the shop
assistant.
"Unless you're going to see that terrible new comedian who's
on at the theatre this week?"
The man replied icily: "I am the new
comedian."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Unfortunately,
we humans do not come equipped with delete buttons for our mouths. My friend and
his rock band were playing a concert at the local psychiatric hospital where he
worked as a musical therapist.
The audience was a little too quiet for
his taste, so the guitarist decided to do something about it. He grabbed the
microphone, pointed to the group and yelled, "Are you ready to get a little
crazy?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~A tourist was admiring the necklace worn by a local Indian. "What is it
made of?" she asked.
"Alligator's teeth," the Indian replied.
"I
suppose," she said patronizingly, "that they mean as much to you as pearls do to
us."
"Yes, brave Oyster Slayer, they sure do." he
replied. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A
man was brought before the court on the charge of refusing to obey a police
officer.
"Why did you refuse to move on when asked to do so by the
officer?" the judge inquired, obviously wondering what unexplained force could
have given such a man strength to buck a strong minion of the law.
"It's
like this, your honor," he explained. "My wife said I was to meet her at exactly
twelve noon at that spot - and I was forced to choose between man's law and
wife's law."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signs and Notices
A billboard
seen next to the highway, travelling from Johannesburg International Airport
into town. An Ad for BMW showing a photo of a BMW 328i convertible with the roof
and all the windows down. The caption reads:' Our hardware runs better without
WINDOWS!!!'
Two signs found on top of one another in a country kitchen
several years ago: Restrooms to the left. Please wait for the hostess to seat
you.
Seen in a health food store. "Shoplifters will be beaten over the
head with an organic carrot"
"Children left unattended will be towed at
parents expense."
I went to a little hole in the wall restaurant: the
sign read: Women are not served here. You have to bring your
own. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Someone
emailed me from a personals Web site, "I like hiking, biking, camping and
skiing." I wrote back, "While you're hiking, biking, camping and skiing, I'll be
eating, drinking, sleeping and smoking. We're soul
mates!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I told
my doctor, "I want a second opinion."
He said, "Sure, as soon as you pay
for the first
one." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A democratic government is one that will
let you make all the money that you want. They just won't let you keep
it.

MUSIC NEWS ****
June 9,
2006: Kenny Chesney will go live in September, least in releasing yet another
new CD. Chesney will put out his second disc this year (he put out 2 in 2005 as
well) when "Live Those Songs Again" drops Sept. 19.
"In a lot of ways, the fans are as much a part of the shows as the band,"
Chesney says with a laugh. "They take everything to a whole other level... and
it starts when we can smell the grilling and hear the music on blaring from the
parking lot. Our fans know how to have fun... and they make us wanna be part of
that. So after all these summers of them giving us so much, you know, and making
this music so much more, I wanted them to hear how much a part of it they
are..." Chesney took 14 songs - many classic, some rarities and several now
retired - from various places he had played over the past 5 years. "We did a
really special version of 'Off The Coast of Somewhere Beautiful' for a small
concert on a private island for some fans," Chesney said, "and we've got a
version of 'Anything But Mine' where the crowd just picks up the chorus and
takes it from us...singing so sweet, me and the band just wanted to stand there
and listen. We've got a bunch of the songs that maybe weren't singles or we're
not doing now - like 'Back Where I Come From' and 'What I Need To Do' that are
so much a part of my relationship with the fans."
"And I can't speak for them, but for me...listening to this, it brings all
those shows, all those nights, all those faces right back. It's a funny thing,
doing this. In some ways, it's a blur, but when you're onstage, you remember
things about every single night, so many moments, so many things that happen.
This album is like bringing them all alive in a single moment."
Chesney currently is riding high with "Summertime" topping the chart this
week. The song is from "The Road & the Radio."

TODAY'S USELESS FACT ****
What kinds of
exercise should you avoid while pregnant?
Most doctors recommend that pregnant women avoid
weight training and sit-ups after the first trimester, especially women who are
at risk for preterm labor. Lifting reduces the blood flow to the kidneys and
uterus, and exercises done on your back (including sit-ups and leg lifts) cause
your heart rate to drop, also decreasing the flow of oxygenated blood to your
body and the baby. It's better to tone your abdominal muscles while on all
fours, by relaxing and then tightening your muscles as you exhale.
Unless
your doctor tells you otherwise, it's also a good idea to avoid any activities
that include: Bouncing, jarring (anything that would cause a lot of up and down
movement), leaping, a sudden change of direction, a risk of abdominal injury.
Typical limitations include contact sports, downhill skiing, scuba diving, and
horseback riding because of the risk of injury they pose. Although some doctors
say step aerobics is acceptable if you can lower the height of your step as your
pregnancy progresses, others caution that a changing center of gravity
makes
falls much more likely. If you do choose to do aerobics, just
make sure to avoid becoming extremely winded or exercising to the point of
exhaustion.
