I always arrive late at the office, but I make up for it by leaving early. Charles Lamb AH, a man after my own heart. ~~~~~~~~~~ A professor of chemistry wanted to teach his 5th grade class a lesson about the evils of liquor, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass of water, a glass of whiskey, and two worms. "Now, class, closely observe the worms," said the professor while putting a worm into the water. The worm in the water writhed about, happy as a worm in water could be. He then put the second worm into the whiskey. It curled up and writhed about painfully, then quickly sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail. "Now, what lesson can we learn from this experiment?" the professor asked. Johnny, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely, responded confidently, "Drink whiskey and you won't get worms." ~~~~~~~~ A kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out about something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time came to present what they'd found, the first little boy walked up to the front of the class made a small white dot on the blackboard and sat back down. Puzzled, the teacher asked him just what it was. "It's a period,'' said the little boy. "Well, I can see that,'' she said, ''but what is so exciting about a period?'' ''I honestly don't know mam,'' said the little boy, ''but this morning my sister was missing one, Daddy had a heart attack, Mommy fainted, and the man next door shot himself." ~~~~~~~~~~ A mother, accompanied by her small daughter, was in New York City. The mother was trying to hail a cab, when her daughter noticed several wildly dressed women who were loitering on a nearby street corner. The mother finally hailed her cab and they both climbed in, at which point the young daughter asks her mother, "Mommy, what are all those ladies waiting for by that corner?" The mother replies, "Those ladies are waiting for their husbands to come by and pick them up on the way home from work." The cabby, upon hearing this exchange, turns to the mother and says, "Ah, C'mon lady! Tell your daughter the truth! For crying out loud...They're hookers!" A brief period of silence follows, and the daughter then asks, "Mommy, do the hooker ladies have any children?" The mother replies, "Of course, Dear. Where do you think cabbies come from?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Having storms and internet on and off, so I'm throwing Friday's welcome mat out now just in case. Good morning everyboomie. I have to be at work at 6:00 in the morning. Winter finally got here. It's rainy, cold and blustery and we have a possibility for some snow in the morning. I doubt it will happen, but exciting prospect anyway. I've got to get to bed, or I'm gonna be dead, at least in the head, but not the grateful dead. Have a happy day everyone. joe

Good Morning Boomers Joe, wishing you a great day today! Ana, easy corner day wished. Enjoy the Hello Kitty Dance later with Sam. Darlene, good day wished. Haroula, I've been wondering where Venus is myself? Hope all is well. Gerry, thanks for the coffee. Have you heard from Sue at all? Connie, continued prayers for your Hubby. Thanks for the Danish. A little rain this morning then it's supposed to clear up so I won't be dog walking till later. Wishing everyone a wonderful Friday!

Morning Guys I'm a little breathy today, so I'm gonna concentrate on sitting still and drinking lots and lots of coffee whilst trying to get in touch with the pharmacy to see if I have any inhaler refills. Silly me.... Guess I'm gonna have to break down and go to the doc. Should be fun as I've been switched yet again and it takes forever to get the docs to get a grip on my issues. So, it will be a good day to relax..

Good morning. Lousy rainy day out there. I worked this morning. I'm glad to be home for the rest of the day. Gonna do stuff I put off while visiting with my Mom. I hope you all have a good day. Ana you asked if I could bring my Mom closer to me. The answer is no because she's close to all her friends and church people and doctors, things like that. She's been moved out of critical care and is stable so I feel that she's getting better. Midgie
Just do it.

Good morning boomies! I'm off to the park with the dogs for a one miler. Thats all I have been doing this week until Merlin gets his braces. He can't go to the river because he is not allowed hills without them so we are hiking the woods. L4L, I hope you feel better and that the doctor will do what needs to be done. How do you feel about the laser treatments for Keoki? I was given an 8 week plan for rehab on Merlin and I'm trying to shave the costs back a bit. Not sure how well the laser treatments work and if its worth the cost. I am thinking of just doing the chiropractic treatment for his bad hips. Do you feel it's helped alot? If it's necessary of course I will adjust and pay for all the recommended treatments. Darlene, glad you had a fun night! Haroula, I too have inquired of venus and no news. She has logged in though although it's been a couple weeks so she probably is just too busy to post. How are you feeling? Gerry, I can't believe I am wearing a Hello Kitty tank top tonight. I am soooooo not a HK person! I hope you have a great day! Connie, prayers and positive thoughts for hubby. Gail, we have had rain and snow so far today but it seems clear now. I hope you can walk the dogs later. SpaceQ are you off today? Hope all is well. Midgie, I understand. Hugs to you. Off I go...

Ana, I think the K-laser treatments help Keoki tremendously. I was skeptical at first, but saw the improvement. I keep kidding my vet that I need to rename son Keoki and let him do them for son's back. Haroula, glad you are better, and yes, that is most likely how you are getting sick. Niteowl,

Hi Boomerites! Rainy and dreary here. Expected to stay all day. Snow in mountains but only at very high altitudes. Connie, virtual hugs for you and prayers for hubby. L4L, feel better soon. Good news about Keoki. Enjoy your Friday and stay safe and warm! Andrea Edit: Trying to decide if I want to go for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. Can't make up my mind, but not in any hurry.

Karen, Hugs! Hope you get the IV out today.

Gail Sassy is game for a walk anytime. It is me who might think twice. I may want to turn around and head home and she just stands there looking at me with those big brown eyes that I end up going her way. Sorry you missed your walk. Karen best of luck with the doc appointment. Hope they can remove the IV!!! niteowl hope they get there and you can get a nap in. Sounds like a stay in weekend anyway if it is blowing sand around. Well time to head out with the taxi and then head to work the fish fry. Have a lovely afternoon and evening all!! Nan
