Hump Day - 11/13/13 06:16 AM

Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.
David Brent

A barber gave a haircut to a priest one day. The priest tried to pay for the haircut but the barber refused saying, "I cannot accept money from you, for you are a good man - you do God's work."

The next morning the barber found a dozen bibles at the door to his shop.

A policeman came to the barber for a haircut, and again the barber refused payment saying, "I cannot accept money from you, for you are a good man - you protect the public."

The next morning the barber found a dozen doughnuts at the door to his shop.

A lawyer came to the barber for a haircut, and again the barber refused payment saying, "I cannot accept money from you, for you are a good man - you serve the justice system."

The next morning the barber found a dozen more lawyers waiting for a haircut.
~~~~~~~~~


A doctor and a lawyer were talking at a party. Their conversation was constantly interrupted by people describing their ailments and asking the doctor for free medical advice. After an hour of this, the exasperated doctor asked the lawyer, "What do you do to stop people from asking you for legal advice when you're out of the office?"

"I give it to them," replied the lawyer, "and then I send them a bill."

The doctor was shocked, but agreed to give it a try. The next day, still feeling slightly guilty, the doctor prepared the bills. When he went to place them in his mailbox, he found a bill from the lawyer.
~~~~~~

At the United Way in a fairly small town a volunteer worker noticed that the most successful lawyer in the whole town hadn't made a contribution. This guy was making about $600,000 a year so the volunteer thought, "Why not call him up?"

He calls up the lawyer.

"Sir, according to our research you haven't made a contribution to the United Way, would you like to do so?"

The lawyer responds, "A contribution? Does your research show that I have an invalid mother who requires expensive surgery once a year just to stay alive?"

The worker is feeling a bit embarrassed and says, "Well, no sir, I'm..."

"Does your research show that my sister's husband was killed in a car accident? She has three kids and no means of support!"

The worker is feeling quite embarrassed at this point. "I'm terribly sorry..."

"Does your research show that my brother broke his neck on the job and now requires a full time nurse to have any kind of normal life?"

The worker is completely humiliated at this point. "I am sorry sir, please forgive me..."

"The gall of you people! I don't give them anything, so why should I give it to you!"

A Mafia Godfather, accompanied by his attorney, walks into a
room to meet with his former accountant.

The Godfather asks the accountant, "Where is the 3 million bucks
you embezzled from me?" The accountant does not answer.

The Godfather asks again, "Where is the 3 million bucks you
embezzled from me?"

The attorney interrupts, "Sir, the man is a deaf mute and cannot
understand you, but I can interpret for you."

The Godfather says, "Well ask him where my money is!" The
attorney, using sign language, asks the accountant where the 3
million dollars is.

The accountant signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about."
The attorney interprets to the Godfather, "He doesn't know what
you are talking about."

The Godfather pulls out a 9 millimeter pistol, puts it to the
temple of the accountant, cocks the trigger and says, "Ask him
again where my money is!"

The attorney signs to the accountant, "He wants to know where
it is!"

The accountant signs back, "OK! OK! OK! The money is hidden in
a brown suitcase behind the shed in my backyard!"

The Godfather says, "Well....what did he say?"

The attorney interprets to the Godfather, "He says...go to hell...
..that you don't have the guts to pull the trigger."

Re: Hump Day - 11/13/13 08:36 PM

It's been such fun around here I can hardly breathe. Ugh.

This morning after a hectic night of watching burglars trying to break into the empty house again, I was trying to take my trash out when an older gentleman walked up to my gate and motioned for me to come speak to him.

Turns out he is a yard work/handyman, who lives a few blocks over in a mobile home court and has nowhere to store all his mowers, etc. He wanted to make a deal to store all that in my yard, in return for yard or handyman work. Nice guy, but I explained I had no room to store anything safely, and I really didn't need anything done since I have 'my yard kid' who really needs the occasional work.

Nice guy really, but I just wasn't in for that deal. Soooo while I was hanging over my front gate chatting with him, looking at the 2 vehicle still parked smack dab in front, that noisy Cadillac pulls up and the gal gets out. I KNOW where she is headed and I KNOW what she'd going to do (it's become quite obvious from the company she keeps and her frequent night visits that she's buying drugs).

So with a nice male right there to give me confidence and beat her up if necessary (kidding, you never know), I yelled, WHY is everyone suddenly parking in front of MY house? She looked a bit shocked, stood there. I yelled again, Would you mind parking your car farther up the block closer to where you are going?. Also added I needed to put my trash cans out. I had them right there at the gate.

She still stared and went to her trunk, opened it closed it and I repeated my request and she finally nodded and said OK OK, sort of annoyed. She did however, get back in and move her car up to the apartments. Stayed there for less than 3 minutes and drove off. Deal made I suppose.

Then I told the handyman guy I was sorry I yelled at the gal and he said, You didn't yell, you just asked her to politely move her car. Made a lot of sense. She was not coming here, she was going way up the block to somewhere else.

I always think I'm yelling, when I raise my voice, but obviously not. Oh well, I expect she will tell everyone in the apartments what I did. Maybe she will come back and key the cars out front. rotfl Would be perfect. Oh yes.

In any case, I started my campaign to get rid of the 'abandoned' car. Asked the drunk apartment lady (who is actually very nice when sober) if she knew who owned it and she told me to call the police. That was unexpected. So now I have 2 people who will tell everyone there and maybe word will get around I'm unhappy about all the parking stuff. Told the lady that I will wait a few more days before I call in the abandoned car. I half way expect it to disappear tonight.

Busy day. Wow. What next? Gotta get a handle on some 'things' like using my parking for drug deals. Not happy about that.

Going to put back up my 'Security Camera Audio and Video on premises' sign, Might make someone think twice. shame

Re: Hump Day - 11/14/13 01:41 AM

Hi Ana.I certainly won't get mad Sweetie. While you're at it could you please exercise for me today as I didn't do any exercising today at all. I want to brag a bit about my daughter Pam. She called me tonight to tell me she passed her state nursing exams. She's now a nurse. I am so proud of her. This has been something she's wanted to be for such a long time. Congratulations my Love. urock woot yay devilchili tomato broccoli dance taz I think I went over my limit. MaG you can take some off if I did. Oh I'm so happy for her. rah

Hello everyone. wave

I had a great day. We walked at least 5 miles in 3 different locations, and found nothing. It was very cold this morning early, but turned out to be a very nice sunny day. bravo

I didn't get to sleep until midnight, and got up at 5:00, so I'm very tired and I have a horrible headache at the base of my skull. shocked

I'm going to start a new thread and then get in bed and watch a movie until I fall asleep. sleep

Midge that's great news for Pam. Congratulations to her. bravo

Have a good evening everyone. wave
