Jack, a tourist from London goes to a Scottish horse race event and witnesses a pastor blessing one of the horses. To Jack’s astonishment, the horse wins. Not just that, the next 3 horses whom the pastor blesses also win. Then he finds the priest blessing a fifth horse and puts a good deal of money on it.

Unfortunately, the horse suffers from a stroke during the race and dies. Jack meets the pastor later and tells him what a disaster his bet had turned out to be. He also questions why the pastor's blessings had not worked on the fifth horse.

The pastor questions him, ‘Are you a Protestant?’.

‘Yes, I am,’ replies Jack.

‘Well then,’ says the pastor. ‘You’ll not be knowing the difference between a blessing and the last rites.’

Dan, a yuppy decides to go out for a walk in the country one morning. As he is strolling down the sunny country road, he comes across a farmer, tending to his two cows.

"Good morning, farmer," says the yuppy.

"Morning to you, sir," replies the farmer. And he pauses, and waits.

Dan thinks that probably just ending it there isn't enough. Struggling for some small talk, he says, "Those are some fine cows you have there."

"Oh, yes, the white cow is a lovely cow, she is," says the farmer.

"And the black cow?"

"Well," the farmer pauses, "yes, I suppose the black cow is good too."

"Yes, they certainly look fit and healthy," says Dan.

"Indeed, the white cow is the healthiest I've ever had! Never needed the vet, full of life!" responds the farmer.

"And the black cow?"

"Well,... yes, the black cow is pretty healthy too."

"So I suppose they give a lot of milk then?"

The farmer beams. "You should see the white cow, come milking time, she's full to bursting with the creamiest milk, she is. Oh yes indeed, the white cow gives a lot of milk she does."

"And the black cow?"

"Oh, well, yes... I suppose the black cow gives a lot of milk too."

Dan doesn't really know where to go with this. The farmer seems to really have something special for the white cow, even though the black cow seems just as good.

"You know, farmer, I don't mean to intrude, but it seems every time I ask you really favor the white cow...."

"Well, isn't it obvious?" asks the farmer, "The white cow is MY cow!"

"Ah, I see. And the black cow?"

"Well, yeah, the black cow is mine, too."

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

Joe was visiting the country with his father. His father owned a farm house with some cows in it.

Joe asks his father, "Hey dad, can you tell me what are the types of milk available.

His father replied, "Hmmm...there is evaporated milk, malted milk, buttermilk, pasteurized milk, partly skimmed milk etc.....why do you wanna know?"

Joe replies, "It's just that I am drawing a picture of a cow, and I want to know how many spigots to put on her."

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

Two explorers are at their London club. One says to the other, ‘Did you hear about Old Chumley? On his last expedition to Africa he married a gorilla!’

‘Good God,’ says the other. ‘That’s a bit queer.’

‘Oh no,’ replies the first explorer. ‘It was a female gorilla.’

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

My dog is so lazy he won’t even bark, he just waits for another dog to bark, then nods.

Q: Why do seagulls live near the sea?

A: Because if they lived near the bay, they would be called bagels.

A snail is crossing the road. As he’s about to get to the other side a turtle runs him over. The paramedics transport the unconscious snail to hospital. The doctors work to revive the snail and, when he awakens, the doctor asks him what happened.

The snail replies, ‘I don’t know, it all happened so fast!’

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

A man hears a knock on his back door and goes to answer it. There’s no one there but the man notices a snail on his doorstep so he kicks it to the bottom of his garden.

Five years later there’s another knock on the door. The man answers it to find the snail on his doorstep again.

‘Hey!’ says the snail. ‘What the hell was that about?’

``````````

An old lady is polishing a lamp when a genie suddenly appears and offers her three wishes.

‘I’d like to be young and beautiful again,’ says the old lady. ‘I’d like this cottage to be a fine mansion, and I’d like my cat, Whiskers, to be a handsome prince.’ The genie grants these wishes and the old lady, the cottage and Whiskers are all transformed. The beautiful young woman swoons into the handsome prince’s arms and he gently whispers in her ear, ‘Now I bet you wish you hadn’t taken me to the vet for that little operation.’

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

A young elephant and young mouse came across each other for the first time:

Mouse: "What are you?"
Elephant: " I'm an elephant"

Mouse: "Aren't you big"
Elephant: " Yes. What are you?

Mouse: " I'm a mouse"
Elephant: " Aren't you small?"

Mouse: " I, I, I've not been well"

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

There was mother unicorn and she had 3 baby unicorns. The first baby unicorn came and said "Mommy, why did you name me Daisy?"

The mother replied "Because the day you were born, a daisy fell right on your forehead."

She said "Ah that's sweet."

She kissed her on the cheek and left. The next baby unicorn comes in and she said "Mommy, why did you name Rose?"

The mother replied "Because the day you were born, a rose fell right on your forehead."

She said "Ah thats sweet." She kissed her on the forehead and walked away.

Then the third baby unicorn comes in and she was like "DERREDUBUDUBJEHDK" and the mom said "Hush now, and go to bed Brick!"

Happy Easter Ya'll puppy easter

We were up early for Sunrise Service. Very small attendance. It was a beautiful day. Then home to cook breakfast...hubby made omelets. I'm heading up to finish tossing in the last minute things and then head to the airport.

Wishing you all a beautiful day!

Happy Easter to all!

My day will be filled with tiny critter watch. I went out to feed the Outdoorsies and found ONE tiny fat black kitten (3 weeks now) under the feeding table. He immediately started crawling to ME. I guess I'm the mom. Well it might have been the black socks I was wearing (mom is black). I tried to get him to eat some slurry but he wasn't interested.

Then I noticed Mom was around, came up to eat, and I put the kitten on the table near her. She sniffed and hissed and that was that. So I knew that Mom has several places she moves the kits to and I saw Mom go under the table to the bed on the chair. All the kittens from the previous litter know that one, and they still sleep there.

I put the kitten on the chair (didn't want to risk getting scratched or bit by Mom in the bed) and it promptly crawled off and fell onto the deck again. It crawled out and towards me. How nice. Ugh. But his older siblings gathered round and one of them started licking him. Cute. I had seen all 3 of the older guys camping out at night with Mom in the side yard where she first moved the kittens. They are a family for sure.

So I got the kitten again, risked getting whomped and put him IN the bed with Mom. She stayed, he stayed, she came in and out to eat and do other cat things, and now she's in the side yard again. Hopefully she has more kittens still alive that she will move to the under table bed. The lone kitten is still in the bed. I'll watch him to be sure he's OK.

It's going to be a day of chasing kittens. What fun. blackkitty

UPDATE: Checked on Mom and kit. Mom was in the under table bed. She got out and went to side yard when she saw me heading that way. She approached the heavy Japanese Iris patch and I heard at least one meow as she called. So I went back to the 'bed' and there were TWO kittens in there now. Guess she's moving them one by one over the day. I'm happy to 'hear' at least 3 of the 4 alive and well for now. Time will tell. Hopefully all 4 will be in the safety of the 'bed' by nightfall.

The older kittens are happily doing their thing chasing everything in the yard (including me). One, Spot, the long-hair, has become a nuisance because he is now jumping from the ground (4 feet high) to attack my hands hoping there is something in them to play with. No scratches, just scares me when he does it. This morning, I bent over to pick something up and he started batting at my hair. Not good. I'm NOT his toy. Geez.

UPDATE on the UPDATE:
I just checked and MOM has moved all FOUR of the kittens to the feeding table bed. NICE. I'm now breathing easier that all of them have reached 3 weeks and are chubby and happy in the under table bed. Hopefully she will keep them there until they are big enough to crawl up on their own to eat.
