Good Morning...


A couple "Manatee's" in

Had a wicked night last night at our neighbors house,
drinking all the booze eating all their food...

Women's first thought when coming across a skid mark in
the toilet:
"Eeww! That's horrible; I must get cleaning equipment before
I can use this."
Men's first thought when coming across a skid mark in the
toilet: "Alright...Gonna test my aim to see if I can I remove
this with the contents of my bladder"


As part of a sponsorship deal with the betting company
Betfair, the hot British women's Olympic beach volleyball duo,
Shauna Mullin and Zara Dampney, will be encouraging fans
to photograph their butts.
They will have a Quick Response bar code on the backs of
their teeny bikini bottoms.
When they are photographed by a smartphone,
it automatically takes users to Betfair's website.
A spokesman said they believe there's no better way to test
QR codes' effectiveness than by putting them on one of the
places that is likely to get photographed the most.
The problem is, with the bikinis they wear, is there room for a
bar code?


"You learn something new every day if you're not careful"



I used to tell people I adopted an Ethiopian
kid a few months ago.
I'd ask "would you like to see his picture"???
I'd open my wallet and pull out a bar code I had
cut out and say "he's the third one on the left".

Rae's Trivia,.......
Researchers say that in Anglo-Saxon Britain, in the 5th and
6th centuries, boy babies were more prized than girls.
The belief spread that evil spirits would visit the cradle and
harm or carry off a boy child.
Blue, a power color representing the sky, would scare away
an evil spirit. Later, in Germany, a widespread legend held
that girl babies sprang from a pink rose and it became
customary to dress baby girls in pink.
That custom merged with the British one of dressing boys in
blue.....

Good Morning Friends...
Did everyone have a good Thanksgiving?
I didn't think I could do the blog while on
vacation.. but I got the friends laptop working
good so was able to post...

My mind is like a steel trap ... Rusty and Illegal in 34 states...........


The blonde had made it big on Hollywood, and decided she
wanted to retire and go back to her home town in the country.
There, she buys a large plot of land, has a big house made,
with three swimming pools outside.
She throws a housewarming party and all her friends and
relatives are there.
One friend pipes up: "How come you have three swimming
pools outside?"
Blonde: "One pool has warm water, for days when it is cold.
Another pool has cold water for days when it is hot."
 "What about the empty pool?"
"Well, sometimes I may not feel like swimming!"


What did the Yogi say when he walked into the Zen Pizza

The proprietor said, "Change must come from within."

A 4-year-old boy was asked to return thanks before a big
dinner.
The family members bowed their heads in expectation.
He began his prayer, thanking God for all his friends, naming
them one by one.
Then he thanked God for Mommy, Daddy, brother, sister,
Grandma, Grandpa, and all his aunts and uncles.
Then he began to thank God for the food.
He gave thanks for the turkey, the dressing, the fruit salad,
the cranberry sauce, the pies, the cakes, even the Cool Whip.
Then he paused, and everyone waited--and waited.
After a long silence, the young fellow looked up at his mother
and asked, "If I thank God for the broccoli, won't he know
that I'm lying?"


One afternoon a man came home from work to find total
mayhem in his house.
His three children were outside, still in their P.J.'s, playing
in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers thrown all
about the front yard.
The door to his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to
the house.
Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess.
 A lamp had been knocked over, and a throw rug was wadded
against one wall.
In the front room the TV was blaring a cartoon channel,
and the family room was strewn with toys and various items
of clothing.
In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, Breakfast food was
spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor,
a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand
lay piled up by the back door.
 He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and other
piles of clothes, looking for his wife.
He was worried that she might be ill, or worse!!
 He found her lounging into the bedroom, still in her pajamas,
reading a novel.
 She smiled, looked up at him and asked how his day went.
He looked at her bewildered and asked,
"What happened here today?"
 She again smiled and answered, "you know everyday when
you come home from work and ask me what in the world did I
do today?"
 "Yes", he replied reluctantly.
 She answered, "We'll, today I didn't do it!!"

Todays Thought;
"Judge each day not by it's harvest,
but by the seeds you plant."

asked the fellow from a nearby city.
The farmer cocked his head for a moment,
then began in a patient tone, "Well, sir, cattle can do a
powerful lot of damage with horns.
ometimes we keep'em trimmed down with a hacksaw.

drops of acid where their horns would grow in,
and that stops 'em cold.
Still, there are some breeds of cattle that never grow horns.
But the reason this cow don't have no horns, sir....
is 'cause it's a horse.

Rae's trivia......
Bears are three-gaited, meaning they walk, lope or gallop.
It has been reported that a grizzly bear can run nearly as fast
as a horse (33-34 mph) for a distance of 50 to 100 yards.
This is definitely faster than a human being can run.
The lope, slower than the gallop, is an easy, ground-covering,
bounding gait that does not seem to tire the bear and can be
maintained for a long time.

When he arrived, they didn't have any painters available,

He reluctantly took him along to help.
A couple of weeks later, the painter returned to the
unemployment office needing temporary help again.
This time there were two painters, but instead he asked for the
 gynecologist again.

The clerk asked, "Why do you want a gynecologist when we
 have two professional painters you can take right now?"
He said, "Two weeks ago when I hired the gynecologist, we
arrived at the house and it was locked with nobody home.
But I'll be damned if that gynecologist didn't stick his hand
 through the mail slot and paint the whole house!"
