~~ A piece of string walks into the pub.
The barman says, "Sorry mate, we don't serve string."
String goes outside, ties itself up a bit, pulls it's ends apart,
goes back in the pub.
Barman says, "Aren't you that piece of string I just
refused to serve?"
String says, "No mate, I'm a frayed knot"..

was all wet.

~~ The topic of our seventh-grade science class was Dolly,

the sheep cloned in Scotland several years back.
We discussed how scientists removed the nucleus from the
sheep egg cell and replaced it with the nucleus from the
parent cell.
The students were fascinated, one in particular.
"This is amazing," he said.... "I had no idea sheep laid eggs."

~~ For my grandfather's 80th birthday,
we had a huge family celebration and even managed to
get a photo announcement printed in the local paper.

"Really?" I stared in complete amazement at my homebody
grandpa.
"Where did you go?"
"Walgreens," he replied.

.
~~ "Make sure you wash your hands before your piano
lesson," I reminded my eight-year-old son.

They're black keys."

.
~~ One night my friend Ray and I were sitting at a bar where
he used to work, when an attractive woman,
a former co-worker, came in and sat next to him.
She told him she had just had a fight with her husband,
a police officer, and needed to get out of the house for a while.
They had been talking for a few minutes when,
as a joke, I leaned over to Ray.
"Don't look now," I whispered, "but a guy about six- five just
walked in...... And he's got a gun."
Without hesitating, Ray turned to me.
"Quick, Jerry," he said, "kiss me on the lips."

~~ Sherry answered an advertisement for a typist to

.
~~ Mother to Son as he is going out the door,
"You're going to school dressed like that?
I can hardly see your underwear!"

.
~~ A man went into a bank and almost on hands and
knees, begged for a loan.
He needed the money desperately to feed his family.
The banker okayed the loan and in no time at all handed
the borrower a check in the amount of the loan.
The banker said,
"I'd suggest you go right out and buy some food."
The borrower looked at the banker indignantly and
answered, "Don't tell me what to do with my money!"

~~ A baby brightens up a home.
Since ours came, the lights have been on all night!

~~~ A married college student, noticeably pregnant, keeps rubbing her
side during a final exam.
Before she leaves, the professor asks if she is OK.
"I noticed you were holding onto your side," he says.
"Oh, I'm fine," she answers.
"It's just that my baby was pushing his foot up and down my ribs,
and it hurt a little."
"Well, that's good," the professor says, feeling genuinely relieved.
"Yes," she continues.
"It's strange..... We both normally sleep during your class."

.
~~ The speed limit is generally fifty-five miles per hour
in the country and twenty in the city,

~~~ At my daughter's school, the lunch-hour rule is that the children
must eat their main course first, before dessert.
One morning I had to make Jerry's lunch in a hurry: granola bar,
cheese, raisins, cantaloupe, orange, snack cake and a juice.
Jerry looked distressed, so I explained that his lunch was nutritious,
and I just didn't have time to make a sandwich.
"But Mom," Jerry cried, "what do I eat first?"

.
~~~ I was addressing some mail when I noticed that my card file

of frequently used addresses was missing.
Thinking it must have fallen from my typing table into the
wastebasket, I called the office janitor.
'I've lost my Rolodex,' I told him.
'It may have been picked up with the trash.
Is there any way you could find it?'
He said he would conduct a search.
When the janitor informed me he had searched every trash
container for my Rolodex, with no luck, I thanked him for his trouble.
As I left work that evening, the janitor met me at the door.
'Good night,' he said smiling apologetically.
'Sorry I couldn't find your watch.'

.
~~ I was visiting my daughter, Cheryl, a successful young
professional, when I noticed half a piece of French bread in
its original wrapper in her recycling box.
When I told her that she couldn't put bread in the recycling box,
she said, "Why not? It tastes like cardboard!"
.

Todays Thought:  I'm sorry for not communicating but sometimes it's

From the back of the room came the answer: "Tails!"

.
~~ Last June, my friend told me about her plans for our upcoming prom.
"I'm renting a stretch limo and spending $1,000 on a new dress,
and I've reserved a table at the most expensive restaurant in town," she said.
Our teacher overheard her and shook her head.
"I didn't spend that much on my wedding."
My friend answered, "I can have three or four weddings.
But a prom you do only once.

.
~~ While editing announcements for a newspaper,
I came across an item promoting a camp for children with asthma.
Aside from all the wonderful activities the kids could enjoy,
such as canoeing, swimming, crafts and more,
it promised that its lakefront property offered something the
kids probably did not expect: "breathtaking views."

.
~~ Despite his low opinion of lieutenants,
the sergeant kept a respectful tone as he taught us how to
bail out of a plane in an emergency.
"Sirs, to open the hatch," he began, "turn this lever to the right,
then pull that handle."
"What if we don’t follow that sequence?"
a second lieutenant asked.
"Then, sir," said the sergeant patiently,
"you hit the hatch handle with a crash axe."
"That’ll open the hatch?"
"No, sir.....................
But it will keep your mind occupied until you crash."

.
~~ QUESTION: Why does beer go through your system so fast?

~~ At a family gathering, a husband began teasing his wife
about how she always get her way.
"Honey," she said to her husband, "when I get my way,
that's a compromise."
"What is it when I get my way?" he was quick to ask.
She replied, "That's a miracle."

.
~~ At the beginning of the school year, I asked my Grade 2
students to write about something exciting they did that summer,
then to draw a picture to illustrate it.
One student proudly presented his account of a ride on a
roller coaster, but he had not drawn a picture.
When I asked why he hadn't done this, he declared,
"I couldn't: I didn't see anything because my eyes were closed."

.
~~ As the only vegetarian in my family,
I often get tired of defending my food choices to other
family members, especially at the large dinner gatherings
we have on special occasions.
I didn't realize how often the subject is actually discussed
until one day around Thanksgiving,
when I picked up my six-year-old, Jordan, from school.
His class had made Thanksgiving turkey crafts using potatoes
and paper feathers.
Jordan proudly presented his to me, announcing excitedly,
"Mom, this year we'll finally have the kind of turkey even
you can eat!"

.
~~ One day a man took the train from Paris to Frankfurt.
When he got in he said to the ticket collector:
"Sir. I really need you to do me a favour,
I have to get down this train in Mannheim,
but I'm very tired and it is for sure that I will fall asleep.
So what I want you to do is that you wake me up in
Mannheim because I have to close a business there and it
is very important for me.
Here you have 100 euros for the favour.
But I warn you sometimes when people wake me up I get
really violent, but no matters what I do or say you got to
get me out of this train in Mannheim. Is that clear?"
So the ticket collector agreed and took the 100 euros.
Later as the man had predicted he fall asleep,
and when he woke up he realized that he was in Frankfurt.
He was so mad at the ticket collector that he ran over and
started yelling at him.
"Are you STUPID or something???
I paid you 100 euros so that you wake me up in Mannheim.
And you didn't! I want my money back"........
While the man was yelling at the ticket guy, two other guys
that were also in the train were looking at them,
so one turns to the other and says to him:
"Look at this guy he is pissed!"
Guy2, "Yeah, almost as mad as the guy they made get out
of the train in Mannheim."

.
~~ Unusual and intricate cakes were our specialty
at the bakery where I worked.
I told one of my customers she had chosen a cake
that was $25 and was recommended for five servings.
"Twenty dollars?" she asked me.
I repeated the cost.
But again she asked if it was $20.
Once more I corrected her.
"But if the cake is $25 for five servings,"
she explained, "then I should be charged $20 since
I'm serving only four people."


.
~~ Those who forget the pasta are condemned to reheat it.

.
~~ In my kindergarten class, the "special person" of the
day brings an item from home and the children ask
questions like, "What is it?" and "Who gave it to you?"
They usually bring an action figure or favorite toy,
so I was impressed when Haley arrived with an educational toy.
When I asked why she chose to bring it,
Haley rolled her eyes and replied,...  "My Dad made me."
.

Todays Thought:  A clean tie attracts the soup of the day.

~~          A DETERMINED SPIRIT (Author Unknown)

Once upon a time, a small bird named Tasoo lived in a
vast jungle.
One hot summer day, a terrible wildfire erupted and the flames
devoured many trees and animals living in the jungle.
Other birds flew high into the sky and far away to safety,
but Tasoo couldn't bear to leave her precious jungle home
to burn.
Day and night, she flew with all her might back and forth to
the river, filling her tiny beak with water to drop on the raging
fires.
Tasoo's rare heart of courage and unshakable determination
moved the heavenly gods to shed tears,
and a great rain poured down upon the jungle,
extinguishing the flames.
And so it is that even the smallest actions of a determined
spirit can change the world.

Shortly thereafter, they both jumped.

Her bugs must be a lot cuter than ours."

~~ By coincidence, the surgeon performing the medical
procedure on me was the son of an NCO I had known
in the air force.
The doctor had even been born in the same military
hospital in Germany as my own son when his father
and I were serving with a U.S. NATO unit.
I was conscious during the procedure and, trying to inject
a note of levity into the situation,
observed that I hadn't thought I would ever experience
an air-force brat messing around inside my heart.
"I didn't think I'd ever be messing around in an old
colonel's heart," the doctor responded.
"In fact, I didn't even know they had one!"

tight-knit ER.
The other nurses were concerned that she might not share
in the workplace banter they had developed.

ever get."

The only time I'm not eating is when I'm sleeping!"

.
~~ One rainy day I watched a neighbor struggling to push her
toddler in a stroller with one hand and control her poodle with
the other.
The dog didn’t want to get its paws wet and was refusing to walk.

trio disappeared behind some hedges.
When they reappeared, she seemed to have sorted out
her problem: The toddler and the dog were in the stroller.

~~ The sergeant was in one of his rare moods as he
lectured the recruits.
"Let me ask you a simple question, what is fortification?"
There was no response.
Nor did any of the rookies answer when he repeated
the question.

the sergeant barked right into his face,
"What is fortification?"
The soldier gulped and managed an answer,
"Two twentifications, Sarge!"

~~ It's forty below zero one winter night in Alaska.

Pat is drinking at his local saloon, and the bartender says to him,
"You owe me quite a bit on your tab."
"Sorry," says Pat, "I'm flat broke this week."
"That's okay," says the bartender.
"I'll just write your name and the amount you owe me right
here on the wall."
"But," says Pat, "I don't want any of my friends to see that."
"They won't," says the bartender.
"I'll just hang your parka over it until it's paid.".

~~ One night in Paris, an American tourist dropped into a
sidewalk cafe late one night and, after a couple of drinks,
realised he was the last person in the bar except for a
chap sleeping at one of the tables.
The man called the proprietor over and asked for his bill.
"Would monsieur care for another drink?" asked the Frenchman.
"No thanks, I imagine you want to close up.
Why don't you send that other fellow home?"
"Well, I should," said the other.
Then, with Gallic logic, he added,
"But each time I wake him up he asks for the bill and ...
pays it again.".

.
~~ By the time a woman realizes her mother was right,
she has a daughter who thinks she's wrong.

.
~~ A few days before my son was to start kindergarten,
he declared he did not intend to go to school.
"You're very lucky to have been born in a country where
the government guarantees each child an education,"
I told him.
"This way everyone grows smart and invents things to
make life better."
I assumed I had made my point, until the next day.
"Dad," he asked nervously.
"If everyone in the country is smart,
and just one person is stupid, will it make a big difference?"

"Well, er, kind of."
"What? Didn't I put in enough chocolate chips?"
"Well, uh, it's not that," she stammered.
"Allison, what's wrong?"
"Well, I just thought you'd like to know...
I'm eating the last one."

~~ Sue was six months pregnant when the bank where
she worked acquired the property next door and began

Bold letters across the front stated:
“Expanding to serve you better.”

~~ Dinosaurs are fascinating.
My four-year-old is obsessed with them.
Recently we were riding on a bus, and he asked another

"Can you say pachycephalosaurus?"

.
~~ My mother and grandmother often told me to eat the
crusts from my bread if I wanted curly hair.
I recently passed this piece of wisdom on to my five-year-old

~~ Many a man owes his success to his first wife and his
second wife to his success.

~~ Substituting in a kindergarten class,
I introduced myself and invited the children to help me
learn their routines and rules.
They spent the day filling me in on every little detail.
The next day, I taught the same class.

morning, one of the little girls stopped short,
put her hand on her hip and looked me square in the face.
"I sure hope," she said,
"you didn't forget everything we taught you yesterday!"
