Perfect CoupleOnce upon a time, a perfect man and a perfect woman met. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was, of course, perfect. One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve, this perfect couple was driving their perfect car (a Grand Caravan) along a winding road, when they noticed someone at the side of the road in distress. Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help. There stood Santa Claus with a huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along delivering toys. Unfortunately, the driving conditions deteriorated and the perfect couple and Santa Claus had an accident. Only one of them survived the accident. The mind numbing question is: Who was the survivor?
Scroll down for the answer...
The perfect woman survived. She's the only one who really existed in the first place. Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man. Women stop reading here. That is the end of the joke.
Men keep'a scrollin'...
So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have been driving. And that explains why there was a car accident. By the way, if you're a woman and you're reading this, this illustrates another point: Women never listen, either.

Good morning everyboomie.
I hope you all had a great weekend.
Mine was great. Sunday warmed up good, the only problem was that the wind blew 30 miles per hour all day.
I needed sustenance, so I went to Walmart kind of early, came back and put it all up, and then took the dogs to the park for a very windy walk.
I did my exercises, and that was it for the day pretty much.
I know people have been waiting on the edge of their seat all day to read about my exciting day.
Sorry to disappoint.
Karen I would love nothing better than to walk the wilds of Washington, and Oregon to look for points, but 2000 miles is a long way to travel, and that's one way.
Have a happy day everyone.
