The showers in Sara's dorm turned scalding hot whenever a toilet was flushed. To warn others, residents would yell out, "Flushing!" each time they flushed the toilets.
During one of Sara's visits home, a friend of her mother stopped by to chat for a while. Sara's mother was telling her friend how Sara was acting more distant now that she was in college, and that Sara didn't tell her all about her life the way she used to.
Suddenly, out of habit, Sara called out from the bathroom, "Flushing!"
"Good grief," said the friend. "How much more do you want to know?"

Naomi took her child into a Child care hospital for a routine check-up with a pediatrician. On the records, the nurse noticed that the child's first name was Urine (pronounced Urin-ie). Not wanting to be rude, but curious to know why this woman had given her child such a weird name, the nurse asked the mother how Urine got her name.
Naomi explained, "Well, my baby was born prematurely and had to stay in the special nursery. She was very sick and they were not sure if she would survive. I couldn't decide what name to give her, but the nurses said they would pray for her. One day I came in and the nurses had already named her. There was this paper on her incubator that said 'Please save Urine', so I knew what they had named my baby."

My brother, John, and his wife, Rebecca, had just finished tucking their children into bed when they heard crying sounds coming from the kids' room. They rushed into the room and found little Suzie crying hysterically.
She had accidentally swallowed a 5p piece and believed she was going to die. No amount of convincing would console her. Trying to calm her, John took out a 5p coin that he had in his pocket and pretended to remove it from Suzie's ear. Suzie was delighted beyond words and in a flash, snatched the coin from her father's hand, swallowed it and insisted cheerfully - 'Do it again, Dad!'

Good morning everyboomie.
Well I don't know what happened there. I was busy posting jokes and I looked up, and I had somehow hit 'post', before I was ready.
I hope you're all having a great weekend so far. Today an ill wind brought us much higher temperatures. We hit 96 degrees today, but I spoke to a lady in Tempe Az who told me it was 106 there, so it can always be worse.
I've been nursing on Baby for the last two days and she's already showing improvement.
She's actually eating better than I am. I want her to gain weight, so she's eating steak while I am eating tuna fish.
This morning I took them to the park, and Baby still lags way behind the other two. I keep having to call them back.
It was already getting hot, and I had already mowed the lawn, so I cut the walk short, and spent the rest of the day inside where it's cool.
I don't have much going on Saturday, except that Hughe's Net is coming to install internet for me, and I am dumping DISH.
At least Hughe's Net offers packages with either 10, 20, 30, or 50 gigs of data.
DISH offers 10 gigs......that's it.
I'm upping my data to 20 gigs to see how that works. It won't cost me much more per month.
Have a happy day everyone.
