Don’t find fault. Find remedy. Anyone can complain.

Monsieur Pierre was staying in a hotel in Mexico.

He called room service and said, "I need pepper."

The attendant asked, "Black pepper, or chilli pepper?"

Monsieur Pierre yelled, "Toilette pepper!"

Jerry, the test pilot in the Air Force, climbs out of the experimental plane, all bruised and battered. The wings and tail of the plane are torn off in the crash landing. The rescue team arrives, and one of the rescuers, seeing Jerry in a bad mess, asks him,"What happened?"

Jerry, looking very pale, replies, "I don't know, I just got here myself!"

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

Jack and Harold, both in their seventies and both bachelors, were sipping cappuccino in a coffee shop.

Jack said, “Harold, I know it's a little late in my life, but I feel I should get married. What do you say?”

Harold replied, "Sure, why not? Any age is a good age. I think you should go ahead.”

Jack continues, “But I am in two minds, whether to marry a spinster or a widow.”

Harold, “I suggest you marry a spinster. She will become a widow in no time anyway.”

Jim and Clara had invited an old friend to their home for dinner.

When dessert was served to the guest, Clara apologized for not having any cheese to go with the apple pie.

Hearing this, their little son, Jack slipped down from his chair and disappeared, then returned in a minute with a small piece of cheese. He shyly placed on the guest’s plate.

“Thank you, young man,” said the guest as he popped the cheese in his mouth, “That must be the last piece you found. Where did you find it?”

Flushing with pride, little Jack answered, "Oh it was in the mousetrap."

Leo, a patient in a mental hospital was being interviewed by a reviewing committee to determine whether he could be released.

Leo was asked what he would do if they let him go. He answered, "I plan to make a slingshot, come back here and break every [blip] window in this place."

He was not allowed to go.

A few months later, the committee was again considering Leo's release and again he was asked the same question. There was no change in his reply "I plan to make a slingshot, come back here and break every [blip] window in this place."

Again, Leo was sent back to his confinement.

Leo happened to talk to another patient and told him his story. The other patient gave him a piece of advise. He said, "If you continue to give the same answer, you'll never get released. You need to tell them what they want to hear." With that, the other patient whispered something into Leo's ears.

Leo was now ready to be reviewed again.
So, in the third review meeting, Leo was asked again what he would do if he was allowed to go.

Leo was prepared this time. He said, "The first thing I'm going to do is find myself a job and a decent house to live" he said.

"Very good," a committee member commented. "and then what?"

"I want to meet a nice girl and start dating her." he replied.

The committee felt that Leo was making good progress. "And then what?" they asked.

"Well, when we have some privacy, I would like to make passionate love to my girlfriend. I will take her dress off, remove her bra, then gently slide her panties off her legs."

Now the committees were really getting excited. "Then what are you going to do?" they asked.

"Then," he replied, "I'm going to take the elastic out of those panties, make myself a slingshot, come back here and break every [blip] window in this place!"

Glad you enjoyed your day, Joe! It's so cool here, it's in the 50's right now! I had a sweater on all day and windows open just a tad for fresh air. Where did summer go?

Have a happy day everyone! Another corner day for me!

Terrific Tuesday ya'll puppy

How's the day going ya'll? I've been busy and will be more so in a bit. Just gonna post and then feed dogs and dive back into book cooking.

Daughter called this morning to say that Lil Leo is over 10 lbs, so he has doubled his birth weight happydance When they got back from the docs, she let the dogs into the back yard. Went to let them back in the house and found an Empty Back Yard. Apparently someone had taken the padlock off her gate and the dogs had gone visiting. She found them, but not before she had a minor (or perhaps major) heart attack.

I have to go out and get squirrel food this afternoon. We have a backyard full of starving bushy-tailed rats and very sad looking birds. Oh dear!

Joe, love that quote.Hope your Tuesday is great.

Ana, please please please be a love and send some of that 50's here.

Gerry, loving the coffee. Thanks

Connie, sounds like a lovely day. What is on tap for Netflix?

Gail, hope all is well with the car. Do you bring a book to read while you wait?

Tainted, hope all the tests are productive and you have some answers soon that will lead to improvement.

Ana, I'm so used to seeing squirrels and birds out my kitchen window that I just couldn't stand looking out there and seeing nothing. I feel much better now that the critters are fed and watered.

How goes the corner?

Connie, I wonder what percentage of the world are critter folks? I'll have to check out The 100.

Afternoon, Space, welcome home wavegirl I hope the day was great.
