Quote: “If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~

The manager of a large corporation got a heart attack, and the doctor told him to go for several weeks to a farm to relax. The guy went to a farm, and after a couple of days he was very bored, so he asked the farmer to give him some job to do.

The farmer told him to clean the droppings of the cows. The farmer thought that to somebody coming from the city, working the whole life sitting in an office, it will take over a week to finish the job, but for his surprise the manager finished the job in less than one day.

The next day the farmer gave to the manager a more difficult job: to cut the heads of 500 chickens. The farmer was sure that the manager will not be able to do the job, but at the end of the day the job was done.

The next morning, as most of the jobs in the farm were done, the farmer asked the manager to divide a bag of potatoes in two boxes: one box with small potatoes, and one box with big potatoes.

At the end of the day the farmer saw that the manager was sitting in front of the potatoes bag, but the two boxes were empty. The farmer asked the manager: "How is that you made such difficult jobs during the first days, and now you cannot do this simple job?"

The manager answered: "Listen, all my life I'm cutting heads and dealing with cr-p, but now you ask me to make decisions."

Microsoft founder Bill Gates attended a fundraiser for President Obama on Friday. He wasn't invited, but in typical Microsoft fashion he crashed it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A world-renowned heart-surgeon and poker pro and a blonde cocktail waitress are sitting next to each other in a $1-2 NL cash game at the MGM in Las Vegas. The surgeon is upset as the blonde keeps winning big pots from him despite it being the first time she's ever played poker.

He suggests they play a prop bet where they ask each other questions; if they don't know the answer to the question; they have to pay the other person. She asks him how she's supposed to compete with a smart, world-renowned surgeon, as she's just a simple cocktail waitress. Eager to make her look stupid, he offers her odds, so that she has to pay him $5 for every time he stumps her, but he'll pay her $50 each time she stumps him. She agrees.

He asks her what the capital of Paraguay is and she shrugs and flips him a red $5 chip.

Her question for him is: "What rises in the evening, sleeps in the morning, and has twice as many brothers as sisters?"

He thinks and thinks and thinks, getting more frustrated, then whips out his iPhone, calls his friends, and finally checks the Internet for an answer. He finally gives up and shoves $50 in chips over to her.

"Well," he angrily demands, "what's the answer?"

She shrugs and flips him another $5 chip.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Joe's just gotten his morning coffee on the way to work when a booming voice tells him: "Take the freeway instead of your normal shortcut." He takes the freeway and when he gets to the office everyone is talking about a huge accident that occurred on his normal route to work.

Three days later he's grilling burgers in his backyard and the voice tells him: "Go inside and watch television." He does and through the window outside he watches a huge oak tree fall and crush the grill where he was just standing.

When the voice tells him to sell everything he owns and move to Vegas, he sells everything he owns and moves to Vegas. The voice tells him to pay $10,000 to enter the World Series of Poker Main Event, which he does.

He's dealt two red aces and the voice tells him to go all-in. He shoves all-in and five different players call. The flop is Jack of clubs, 10 of clubs, 9 of clubs...

"Oh bugger!..." the voice says.

A dog thinks: Hey, these people I live with feed me, love me, provide me with a nice warm, dry house, pet me, and take good care of me ... They must be gods!

A cat thinks: Hey, these people I live with feed me, love me, provide me with a nice warm, dry house, pet me, and take good care of me ... I must be a god!

Attending a union convention in Las Vegas a union lighting man decides to visit a bordello. He goes into the first place, the ladies are lovely, and he asks the Madam, "Is this a union establishment?"

"Why, no, it isn't," the Madam replies.

"Well," the Union Man asks, "what percentage of the take goes to the girl?"

"We split the money, 20 percent to the girl and 80 percent to the house."

Feeling that wasn't a fair split the man left and went to another establishment. Again he asked the same questions and received a similar response. Although not a union house the split rate at this one was 30 percent to the girl and 70 percent to the house.

He continued his trek for some time until, finally, he came upon a Union House. "That's wonderful," he says to the Madam, "and what's the split?"

"We give 80 percent to the girl and keep just 20 percent for the house."

The Man is overjoyed. "Fantastic," he says, finally satisfied. Immediately he spots an attractive young blonde and indicates her to the Madam. "I'd like to have her please," he declares.

"Oh, I'm sure you would," the Madam replies, but she instead redirects him to an aging, overweight woman in the corner, "But I'm afraid Ethel here has seniority."

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural History are marveling at the dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard,“Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?”

The guard replies, “They are three million, four years, and six months old.”

“That’s an awfully exact number,” says the tourist. “How do you know their age so precisely?”

The guard answers, “Well, the dinosaur bones were three million years old when I started working here, and that was four and a half years ago!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation. He wrote:”I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?”

An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said, “I’ve been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I’ve never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I’ve never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I’ve never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And, if your dog will vouch for you, you re welcome to stay here, too.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head.

Down-n-n-n came the good fairy. She said, "Little Bunny Foo-Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head. If you don't behave, I will turn you into a goon! I will give you THREE chances!"

The next day:

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head.

Down-n-n-n came the good fairy. She said, "Little Bunny Foo-Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head. If you don't behave, I will turn you into a goon! I will give you TWO more chances!"

The next day:

Down-n-n-n came the good fairy. She said, "Little Bunny Foo-Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head. If you don't behave, I will turn you into a goon! I will give you ONE more chance!"

The next day:

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head.

Down-n-n-n came the good fairy. She said, "Little Bunny Foo-Foo, I warned you! I gave you three chances, and you didn't behave." She waved her magic wand, and POOF! Little Bunny Foo-Foo turned into a goon.

AND THE MORAL OF THIS STORY IS:

Hare today, goon tomorrow!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


I hope you're all wide awake, and happily hopping about your Hump Day. yay


I don't go to work today until 1:00, so I'm going to enjoy the Heart Attack Special, or Continental Cholesterol Supreme breakfast, with eggs and bacon on top of biscuits and sausage gravy. I going to wash it down with whole milk, and top that off with a cup or three of coffee. grin


I may as well live life on the edge. I never know when I might be hare today, goon tomorrow. razz


Did you ever sit through an entire recorded movie or program, and completely forget that you can skip through the commercials? rolleyes


Me neither.........but I get about half way through the commercials before I remember I don't have to watch them. taz


Some times it doesn't take me that long, like if it's a Christmas commercial. in July.


You'd think more of those annoying commercials would tip a person off, but so many of those companies show the same commercials for 6 or 8 years. slapforehead


Well it's time for me to go see if I can stay alert enough to watch a 4 hour football game in 1 hour. woot


Have a happy day everyone.

Sounds like a delicious breakfast, Joe. thumbsup

Have a great day, too, Ana.

Glad your son is feeling better, Haroula!

Have a great Thursday, Gerry.

Well, I'm off today. It's nice to get an extra day, not so nice that they skimped me on hours again. shame I'm hoping things will pick up in the spring. As for today, there's still a lot of snow on the ground (it was fun driving in it yesterday crazy lol), so I think I'll stay in and game. grin Maybe practice singing as well.

Hope everyone has a terrific Thursday. winter

It's Ash Wednesday and a cold but beautiful morning -the air is cold but the sun blazing hot/warm. If this is a forewarning summer will be a scorcher. I'm breakfasting on an organic bananna and boiled cabbage. And of course the cabbage emerged too cooked but the flavor is there. It's been years I've had boiled cabbage. Usually I get red cabbage and eat off it raw and throw the rest outdoors and something eats it.

Hey, Sorta, you have a peahen and I have opossum. Yesterday I gave possum some Boca vegan hamburg with lettuce tomato and mayonaise and home made hamburg roll and she ate everything but the Boca hamburg. Which hamburg she chewed and spit out. She doesn't have to speak English does she/he. I'm sure she'd go for real hamburg.

Time to plant tomatos

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll puppy

Still cold, but woo hoo, we have sun and blue skies. The closest I'm getting to them is letting the dogs in and out. It's just waaaay tooooooo cold out there for me, and there is wind....Oh No!

I'll be heading up to the kitchen to toss dinner into the crock and feed the dogs and grab more coffee in a bit. I have a new recipe with sausage and chicken. Sounds pretty easy and pretty yummy so we shall see.

I'll be dipping my toes into some creative bookkeeping today too, and then we shall see what the rest of the day brings. Perhaps it shall bring the bed and a heating pad, but hopefully not.

Joe, the Heart Attack Special sounds wonderful. I never forget to skip commercials, though if I'm in the kitchen and my hands are icky I'm sometimes forced to listen as I can't mute, though usually I can't stand it so I stop what I'm doing and wash my hands to mute it.

Ana, wave How is the shoulder?

Haroula, so glad son is better. I know that means mom is feeling better too.

Gerry, stay warm.

Venus, I hope the hours pick up soon for you.

Connie, thanks for the biscuit bottoms. Perfect. Are you doing anything fun today?

Gail, what's up for you today?

Darlene, happy skooshing!

Yankee, happy Ash Wednesday! Makes ya think when the critters won't eat something lol Do you start your tomatoes inside?

Off to start dinner wave

My kinda breakfast Joe, only I'd wash it down with half and half! rotfl

Yep Yankee, possums are fussy about what they like and don't like. I tried mine on pizza and the picked off the stuff on top and only ate the crust. Loved grapes, hated strawberries, BUT went bananas for bananas. Didn't especially like any veggies no matter what shape I cut them. The nice thing about possums is they eat carrion. Sure helps with whatever dies under my house. The hungrier the possums are, the faster it disappears. Whew.

Sunny, cool breeze, back to almost Spring weather here and I know it's still technically Winter. Have to keep track of the calendar to be sure what season we are in.

News about the empty house in Sorta's Neighborhood. Ugh!


WARNING! This person is extremely blonde...please type SLOWLY.

Edit: Sorta, saw This and thought of you wave

edit 2: The stew was delicious! Time for bed. Sweet dreams all sleep
