Tuesday If You're In the Mood - 01/22/13 06:27 AM

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts, "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"
The man below says: "Yes. You're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field."

"You must work in Information Technology" says the balloonist.

"I do" replies the man. "How did you know?"

"Well" says the balloonist, "Everything you have told me is technically correct, but it's no use to anyone."

The man below says, "You must work in business."

"I do" replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?"

"Well," says the man, "You don't know where you are, or where you're going, but you expect me to be able to help. You're in the same position you were before we met, but now it's my fault."

Jacob, age 92, and Rebecca, age 89, are all excited about their decision to get married. They go for a stroll to discuss the wedding and on the way they pass a drugstore. Jacob suggests they go in. Jacob addresses the man behind the counter:
'Are you the owner?' The pharmacist answers yes.

Says Jacob: 'We're about to get married. Do you sell heart medication?'

Pharmacist: 'Of course we do.'

Jacob: 'How about medicine for circulation?'

Pharmacist: 'All kinds.'

Jacob: 'Medicine for rheumatism, scoliosis? '

Pharmacist: 'Definitely.'

Jacob: 'How about Viagra?'

Pharmacist: 'Of course.'

Jacob: 'Medicine for memory problems, arthritis, jaundice?'

Pharmacist: 'Yes, a large variety. The works.'

Jacob: 'What about vitamins, sleeping pills, Geritol, antidotes for Parkinson's disease?'

Pharmacist: 'Absolutely.'

Jacob: 'You sell wheelchairs and walkers?'

Pharmacist: 'All speeds and sizes.'

Jacob says to the pharmacist: 'We'd like to register here for our wedding gifts, please.'

One night, a Delta twin-engine puddle jumper was flying somewhere above New Jersey. There were five people on board: the pilot, Michael Jordan, Bill Gates, the Dali Lama, and a hippie. Suddenly, an illegal oxygen generator exploded loudly in the luggage compartment, and the passenger cabin began to fill with smoke. The cockpit door opened, and the pilot burst into the compartment.
"Gentlemen," he began, "I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that we're about to crash in New Jersey. The good news is that there are four parachutes, and I have one of them!" With that, the pilot threw open the door and jumped from the plane.

Michael Jordan was on his feet in a flash. "Gentlemen," he said, "I am the world's greatest athlete. The world needs great athletes. I think the world's greatest athlete should have a parachute!" With these words, he grabbed one of the remaining parachutes, and hurtled through the door and into the night.

Bill Gates rose and said, "Gentlemen, I am the world's smartest man. The world needs smart men. I think the world's smartest man should have a parachute, too." He grabbed one, and out he jumped. The Dali Lama and the hippie looked at one another. Finally, the Dali Lama spoke. "My son," he said, "I have lived a satisfying life and have known the bliss of True Enlightenment. You have your life ahead of you; you take a parachute, and I will go down with the plane."

The hippie smiled slowly and said, "Hey, don't worry, pop. The world's smartest man just jumped out wearing my backpack."

Good morning everyone.

Learning how to text. Yeah! Susie was excited about me getting a phone. We are going over there on Sunday and she wants me to bring it. Of course I'm going to.

It's cold here but not as cold as where Nan is. How is it in Chicago Ana?

My coffee cup is calling me and I am waiting for my phone to charge up so I can play with it some more.

Coffeeeeeeeee!!!

Re: Tuesday If You're In the Mood - 01/22/13 05:44 PM

L4L, I'm pretty sure I broke my little toe yesterday. It's the tiny end and not the big joint so nothing that can be done except let it be to heal. I danced on it last night and clearly angered it but if I can possibly get my five finger shoes on tomorrow, I'll dance on it again. rotfl
Good luck cooking the books!

Nan, no thanks! lol That's not cold, that's insane! rotfl THat's incredible they found that guy alive. An angel surely was watching over him.

Happy Tuesday to all! I'm still thinking it's Monday. Ugh.

Good news is that before 7 am I heard 'sidewalk work' noises across the way. I was right! They are back to work, finally after a whole week of nothing being done. Hope it goes smoothly from here. The residents whose sidewalks were 'framed in' over a week ago will be happy. They have had to park on my street and walk half a block through dirt and dangerous wood and metal stakes to get to their houses. Gonna be nice to have it all finished. Keeping fingers crossed no more delays.

RIP Stripey Kitty. She was a spayed female who wandered in over 15 years ago and spent her life happily hunting critters in my yard and the neighbors. Her friend, Spot, is about the same age, appeared the same time and also seems to be spayed. I'm sure someone dumped them and I provided warm outdoor accomodations and water and food every day. Poor Stripey passed away peacefully in her sleep, curled up in a nice kitty bed, beside Spot, her long time friend. Dunno if Spot will notice she's gone, but they were inseparable all these years. Stripey had been getting thinner for the past few weeks and nothing seemed wrong. I'm guessing old age, liver or kidney failure. Found out finally today, when I could actually touch her (feral to the max) that she still had Staples in her tummy from the spaying all those years ago! Never seemed to bother her, I had no idea, but always guessed about the spaying because no males ever bothered her or her friend. Friend Spot, has a scar (she's fairly friendly in the last 2 years finally) and I can pick her up. Ferals are strange ones, but they deserve love too. Off to animal control with poor Stripey in an hour when they open.

Feral count outside is now Six, and my old cat, Bubba inside all his life, makes a lucky Seven.

Off to watch a sidewalk dry.

Ana, how did you break a little toe? Ouch.
Posted By: looney4labs

Re: Tuesday If You're In the Mood - 01/22/13 06:01 PM

Eeek Ana, so not fun. The boys have broken toes a couple of times. All the docs ever did was tape the broken one to the one next to it.

It's bright and sunny out there. Cold for us, but not for Minnesota I guess. We are 43 but there is a wind chill. Just to make us feel better the weatherman said it was in the minuses in Duluth rotfl

Sorta, sorry for your loss. I'll never understand dumping an animal.

Re: Tuesday If You're In the Mood - 01/22/13 07:16 PM

Sorta, so sorry for your loss. Even though she didn't live indoors with you I know how much you care for your outdoorsies. I am glad that you at least know she went peacefully in her sleep and not wondering if she is locked in someones shed. My heart goes out to you. hearts

Bets, 4 large dogs, small hallway, toe vs. corner of wall. sad Toe lost.

L4L, I have also broken my toes and I refuse to wait for hours in an emergency room to have them tape it and send you home. They don't even xray them because it doesn't matter either way.
Stay warm!

back to the corner...

Hello everyone. wave

I had a great day. I spent most of it unpacking and organizing most of the remaining boxes. yes

I spent the afternoon time digging for points. happydance

I found a pocket full of chips and flakes, and one half of a very old point, as if they are not all very old. rolleyes

It was a gorgeous day weather-wise in the upper 50s.

Tomorrow is supposed to be 70 degrees. penguin

I'll try to blow some of these temps to Ana & Nan, thumbsup

Tomorrow is my last day off. It's been a nice 5 days. bravo

I need to try and get to bed early tonight and watch a movie, or fall asleep to a movie is more like it. lol

Have a nice night everybody. wave
