Good Morning, friends and neighbors...
A little warm yesterday, but windy.....
comments open, Pete.....


Yesterdays sunrise.....mostly cloudy. but the wind blew them away.

See what happened when the wind came up??
Was it windy on your side, Pete??

I'm not answering any questions......

What, you question the man??
I take care of his light work......

James Bond Jr. is on the job.....

Yep......He sure is.....

Also I believe he's after some bird eggs for breakfast....

"No, you must first yell "Allah, Allah, Allah" before you ignite, or else you don't get the 72 Virgins."

Nice way to go......Stupid!

Oh-Oh, a beached Wale......
(ok, who took my picture??)

Just what we need, to get through the spin job....

Well, time for me to ride off in to the sunset.....
♥♥♥

~~ Q: Why did the fish get kicked out of school?

A: Because he was caught with seaweed.


~~ At age 70, grandfather bought his first riding lawn
mower.
"This thing is great," he bragged to my brother.
"It took me only an hour and a half to mow the lawn.
It used to take your grandmother two days to do it all!"



~~ Cher and Sonny Bono were once invited to dinner by
Salvador Dali.
"Dali must have thought that Son and I would be a lot
wilder," Cher later recalled.
"Less than ten minutes after we sat down, he turned to us
and said, 'Excuse me, but we forgot that we have a
previous engagement.'
And then his group got up, moved to another table,
sat down, and ordered dinner."



~~ President Calvin Coolidge and his wife visited a
government farm one day and were taken around on
separate tours.
Mrs. Coolidge, passing the chicken pens, inquired as to
whether the roosters copulated more than once a day.
"Yes," the man said....... "Dozens of times."
"Tell that," Mrs. Coolidge replied, "to the president!"
Some time later the president, passing the same pens,
was told about the roosters - and about his wife's remark.
"Same hen every time?" he asked.
"Oh, no, a different one each time," the man replied.
"Tell that," Coolidge said with a sly nod,
"to Mrs. Coolidge."
Thus was born the phrase "Coolidge effect" to describe
the re- arousal of a male animal by the introduction of a
new female.



~~ A little boy came home from kindergarten with a
blue ribbon.
When his mommy asked him "What is the blue ribbon
for?"
he proudly announced, "I won!"
When pressed for details he simply said,
"The teacher asked all of us to guess how many legs an
insect has.
When my turn came, I guessed FIVE."
"Five???" his mother replied, "but an insect has SIX legs."
"I won because my guess was the closest."



~~ One day in 1961, an American student, newly arrived
in England to begin his postgraduate work, paid a visit
to T. S. Eliot. As the young man was leaving,
Eliot sought to impart some sympathetic wisdom.
"Forty years ago I went from Harvard to Oxford," he mused.
"Now, what advice can I give you?"
At this, the younger man waited with bated breath for the
bard's sage words.
Eliot's advice finally came...in the form of a question:
"Have you any long underwear?"



~~ One evening shortly after I turned 40,
my nine-year-old daughter, Amy,
asked, as she always does.
"Will you come tuck me in, Dad?"
"Amy," I replied, "I'll come tuck you in, but only if you
promise me that when I'm old, you'll come tuck me in."
"That starts now, Dad," was her response.



~~ Our friends Dave and Kristen have a precocious
three-year-old. One day,
Kristen chided Alayna for calling
her by her first name.
"Stop calling me Kristen," she said.
"I want you to call me Mommy, not Kristen."
Alayna looked confused.
"But Dave calls you Kristen."



~~ An art lover stopped by my booth at a crafts
fair to admire one of my paintings.
"Is that a self-portrait?" he asked.
"Yes, it is," I said.
"Who did it?"



~~ My mother teaches first grade in a small town.
One day, she took all her students down the hall to the
restroom at once so as not to be disturbed every 5
minutes for a bathroom break.
As first- graders tend to dawdle, she urged them to
"hurry up and take care of business"
so they could get back to the classroom.
One young man looked up at her and,
in all seriousness said, "Teacher, I don't have any
unfinished business."
Mom had to excuse herself.



~~ They were looking down into the depths of the
Grand Canyon.
"Do you know," asked the guide, "that it took millions
and millions of years for this great abyss to be carved out?"
"Well, I'll be darned," exclaimed Pete.
"I never knew this was a government job."



~~ "A new study found that heavy drinkers outlive

non-drinkers, but the ways they die are a lot more
embarrassing."


Todays Thought:  The best revenge is a vow to never be like the one who hurt you.
