I intend to live forever. So far, so good.

STEVEN WRIGHT
```````````````````````````

Hey everybody. Stop me if you've heard these. wink

``````````````````

Girl: Ick! Why does this sandwich have bacon on it?

Friend: You ordered a BLT.

Girl: Whaaaat? I thought the B stood for bread.

``````````````````````

During basic training at Fort Leavenworth, our sergeant asked if anyone had 
“artistic” abilities. Having been an architectural draftsman in civilian life, I raised my hand. Then the 
sergeant announced that everyone would get a three-day pass … except me. I would stay behind and neatly print each soldier’s name onto his Army-issued underwear.

``````````````````````````

I was at the customer-service desk, returning a pair of jeans that was too tight.

“Was anything wrong with them?” the clerk asked.

“Yes,” I said. “They hurt my 
feelings.”

``````````````````````````

The steaming jungles of Vietnam were not my husband’s first choice 
of places to spend his 21st birthday. However, the mood was brightened when he received a birthday cake from his sister. It was carefully 
encased in a Tupperware container and came with this note: “Dick, when you’re finished, can you mail back my container?”

``````````````````````````

As a Speech therapist, I was working with a preschooler on 
body-part identification and the 
k sound. To that end, I had him 
use Play-Doh to make a sculpture 
of me.

“Is that my neck?” I asked, trying to get him to repeat the word.

“No, that’s your chin,” he said.

He added more Play-Doh. “Is that my neck?” I asked.

“No, that’s your other chin.”

``````````````````````

While I was out to lunch, my coworker answered my phone and told the caller that I would be back 
in 20 minutes. The woman asked, 
“Is that 20 minutes Central Standard Time?”

yes
`````````````````````````````

It’s amazing how a person can compliment and insult you at the same time. Recently, when I greeted my coworker, she said, “You look so gorgeous, I didn’t recognize you.”

````````````````````````````

At an art gallery, a woman and her ten-year-old son were having 
a tough time choosing between one of my paintings and another artist’s work. They finally went with mine.

“I guess you decided you prefer an autumn scene to a floral,” I said.

“No,” said the boy. “Your painting’s wider, so it’ll cover three holes in 
our wall.”

`````````````````````````

While hosting a garage sale, 
I asked a man if he was looking for anything in particular. “Yes,” he said. “Place mats the color of grape jelly.”

```````````````````````````````

We were inspecting several lots of grenades. While everyone was concentrating on the task at hand, I held up a spare pin and asked, “Has anyone seen my grenade?”

SMSgt. Dan Powell, from rallypoint.com

`````````````````````````````

The military has a long, proud tradition of pranking recruits. Here are some favorites from rallypoint.com:

• Instructed a private in the mess hall to look for left-handed spatulas

• Sent a recruit to medical-supplies office in search of fallopian tubes

• Had a new guy conduct a 
“boom test” on a howitzer by yelling “Boom!” down the tube in order to “calibrate” it

• Ordered a private to bring back 
a five-gallon can of dehydrated water (in fact, the sergeant just wanted an empty water can)
```````````````````````````````````

I asked my brother-in-law, the 
father of four boys, “If you had to do it all over again, would you still have kids?”

“Yes,” he said. “Just not these four.”

````````````````````````````

Asked to pick the worst year 
ever, film director Peter Segal chose 1848, “the year gold was discovered at Sutter’s Mill. Until then, you could find a nice piece of land in California, pitch your tent, and call it home. 
The housing market here has been 
a living hell ever since.”

``````````````````````````````

I was nine months pregnant and browsing at a garage sale when the homeowner asked me if I knew whether I was having a boy or a girl. 
I told her I didn’t.
As I left a few minutes later, she yelled after me, “I hope you get the sex you want!”

```````````````````````

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


One early day down, one more loaded and ready to launch. thumbsup


I'm gonna get this little diner on the corner open, and see if I have time enough left......or right, to do a little gaming before bedtime. hamster


Gail the thing about getting off at 1:00 and having the whole day to myself is that if you have to be at work again the same time tomorrow, it's no different than any other day. I have to get to bed early if I'm going to get my tiny hiney up at 3:00am again. rolleyes


I rush home and take the doggies out for a very hot walk, didn't phase them one one bit, then I fixed dinner and ate it, then I got my shower, and here I am. grin


Now....after work tomorrow (Thursday), I'll be off Friday, so I don't have to rush anywhere except to get home. I'm always in a hurry to get home. razz


My screen keeps going black on this computer. I'm typing along and look up and the screen is black. I have to push the on button a couple of times to get back to my log in screen. headscratch


I'm not losing my post because it doesn't shut down, but it sure is annoying, and Ana or Mag, please don't move this post to glitches ok? shame


Ok I'm outta here. Have a happy day everyone.

Sorry to hear about your computer, Joe. frown At least Ana won't move your post to Glitches, so that's something. lol

Have a terrific Thursday, Ana.

Since I saw the diner is up early, I decided to post now as early work mornings are nearly impossible anymore. grin Tomorrow is going to be another workday. Luckily, I've been able to get in some singing practice after getting home every day this week. I want to be prepared for my voice lesson on Sunday. smile

As for now, I'm off to play some Dreamfall Chapters with Thorsgoats this evening before I have to go to sleep for work. Have a fantastic Thursday, everyone. summer

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

Thanks, Space. Me too. Wish it were not so hot as that limits the amount of rehab walking we can do. Wish we had access to a lake or a pool. But that's ok.

How was your day?
