"Plodding wins the race." Aesop
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Six retired Floridians were playing poker in the condo clubhouse when Meyerwitz loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest, and drops dead at the table. Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five continue playing standing up.

Finkelstein looks around and asks, "So, who's gonna tell his wife?" They cut cards. Goldberg picks the two of clubs and has to carry the news. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.

"Discreet? I'm the most discreet person you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me."

Goldberg goes over to the Meyerwitz apartment and knocks on the door. The wife answers thru the door and asks what he wants? Goldberg declares: "Your husband just lost $500 in a Poker game and is afraid to come home.

"Tell him to drop dead!" yells the wife.

"I'll go tell him." says Goldberg
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a true story..

An elderly Florida lady did her shopping, and upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her voice, I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!

The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out and ran like mad.

The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then it dawned on her why. A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the Police station. The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car- jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun. No charges were filed.

AH, SENIOR MOMENTS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John went to visit his 90 year old grandfather in a very secluded, rural area of Georgia.

After spending a great evening chatting the night away, John's grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast. However, John noticed a film like substance on his plate, and questioned his grandfather asking, "Are these plates clean?"

His grandfather replied, "They're as clean as cold water can get them. Just you go ahead and finish your meal, Sonny!"

For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again, John was concerned about the plates as his appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried egg and asked, "Are you sure these plates are clean?"

Without looking up the old man said, "I told you before, Sonny, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don't you fret, I don't want to hear another word about it!"

Later that afternoon, John was on his way to a nearby town and as he was leaving, his grandfather's dog started to growl, and wouldn't let him pass. John yelled and said, "Grandfather, your dog won't let me get to my car".

Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted ... "COLDWATER, GO LAY DOWN!!!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good jokes today Joe! Especially liked the Car-jacking and Coldwater ones.

Feels strange to say good morning as I have not left work yet. I have "tomorrow", Friday, off so my long weekend starts when I get out of here.

Good morning to Joe and all that come.

Have a terrific day Joe, BobH, SharonB and all who come in after me. wave12

It's late Thursday night for me as well, but I figured I may as well post now just in case I don't have time in the morning. I have to get up at 3:30 tomorrow morning for work. Not fun, but at least it means I get off earlier. grin12

Okay, off to sleep now. sleep12

Have a terrific Friday, everyone. santa

Fantastic Friday ya'll puppy

I'm running late. We set 2 alarm clocks last night but I managed not to hear either. Off to take Keoki to the vet for his yearly visit.

Who is going to see the Hobbit? Hubby, son, and I are going to join the throngs tonight. wave12

Friday already? I'm still stuck on Thursday, or maybe Wednesday. Excitement again though on the sidewalk project. After Wednesday's digging and pulling out fences, etc, they actually dug in half of one side of the street for the sidewalk and gutter. THEN it rained, (we got 1.6 inches!) and the gutter area filled with water so they had a nice long pond there. Skipped yesterday, but are back to day in force with loads of trucks. Maybe they will drain the water and actually put in the cement. It dries in about 1/2 hour so it goes so fast. Oh boy.

Critters are still cuddling up in places outside trying to keep warm and dry. Loads of spots that I've created for them. Raccoons, I am happy to say, have not been here for 4 days now. As soon as I'm SURE that mom and babies are gone for the season, I'll block the access under the deck and make it less inviting. Cute little guys, but dangerous. Amazingly they get along with the possums and feral cats. Can't figure out how nature does that. Each takes their turn at the feeders and water dishes. Wow. We humans should learn from them!

Off to watch the sidewalk progress.

Hey Sorta, I do those things for my animal friends too. Right on!!! Couple years ago I had baby opossums and mom running around my house and the babies would nip my ankles, they trusted me. Out of the whole year, that's what I remember. I fed them cat food Fancy Feast every night. They are a joy.

And Ana I'm gonna pack up my family and you can pick us up at airport tomorrow AM. We'll bring the champaign (spelling) and make front page. Really have a grand time and get plenty of sleep too.

Kind of gray lizard-dy day but it's warm good.

Off to do dishes and then escape to Oblivion and then on to Amazon and buy up all the shooters they have.

Lookin' toward the weekend all

Be safe, Nan.

Back from the vet. Keoki tested positive for Ehrlichia, but his platelets are fine which means he either was just exposed, or he has it but it hasn't progressed. So we will be keeping a weather eye on him. It is passed by ticks and the other dogs all tested negative. No more walks on the bike trail.

Have fun Ana. puppy

Yahoo it rained here today for the first time in a year, it seems! yay12

Howdy everybody. wave12

I had a sleepless night at Mom's last night, and I'm ready to get a good night's sleep tonight. yes

It's cold and rainy here, and that's alright with me, but we only got about a half inch when we needed 12 inches. thumbsup12

It's been so dry here I was beginning to think it might never rain again. slapforehead

Now I need to go get my shower over.

Tomorrow is another early day, but instead of getting up at 3:30, I get to sleep in until 5:30. bravo12

I hope your day was a good one, and you are having a nice warm cozy evening. sherlock

Do you hear that??? Shhhhh.....it's silence.

The kids have all departed for the night to stay at my niece's new house and will return tomorrow morning to do it all again. lol12 Now I have to wrap presents and then I can actually take a moment for myself. I am really looking forward to it.

The only bad part of the day was when my niece walked in my house unescorted and ran screaming across the living room to hug her cousins. I was in the kitchen cooking unaware she had pulled up and I heard her scream in excitement and the next thing I hear is her screaming ow and yelling at the dog. After all these years of hanging around my house she still doesn't get that I have watchdogs here, and if you run into my house screaming and lunge yourself at someone to hug them, you will get bit. sad
In the 9 years I have had Merlin he has only given small warning nips that do not hurt but today he bit harder for a definite warning and he broke skin and gave her a large bruise.

Okay...off to wrap so I have time to chill. Life is good...
