Hump Day

Hump Day - 11/04/15 02:32 AM

The trouble with being punctual is that nobody’s there to appreciate it.
FRANKLIN P. JONES

There was once a sheep farmer who had a French farm hand working with him to help castrate his sheep. As the farmer castrated the sheep, the French farm hand took the parts and was about to throw them into the trash. "No!" yelled the farmer, "Don't throw those away! My wife fries them up and we eat them, they're delicious! They're called Sheep Fries!" The farm hand saved the parts and took them to the farmer's wife who cooked them up for supper.

This went on for three days....and each evening they had Sheep Fries for supper. On the fourth night the farmer came in to the house for supper. He asked his wife where the farm hand was and she replied, "It's the strangest thing! When he came in and asked what was for supper, I told him we were having French Fries and when I turned around, he was gone."

Three Kiwis and three Aussies are traveling by train to a conference. At the station, the three Aussies each buy tickets and watch as the three Kiwis buy only a single ticket.

"How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asks an Aussie.

"Watch and you'll see," answers a Kiwi.

They all board the train. The Aussies take their respective seats but all three Kiwis cram into a bathroom and close the door behind them.

Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the bathroom door and says,"Ticket, please." The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.

The Aussies see this and agree it was quite a clever idea. So after the conference, the Aussies decide to copy the Kiwis on the return trip and save some money (being clever with money,and all that). When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for the return trip. To their astonishment, the Kiwis don't buy a ticket at all.

"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one perplexed Aussie. Watch and you'll see," answers a kiwi.

When they board the train the three Aussies cram into a bathroom and the three Kiwis cram into another one nearby. The train departs. Shortly afterward, one of the Kiwis leaves his bathroom and walks over to the bathroom where the Aussies are hiding.

He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket, please."

A Brit, a Frenchman and a Russian are viewing a painting of Adam and Eve frolicking in the Garden of Eden.

"Look at their reserve, their calm," muses the Brit. "They must be British."

"Nonsense," the Frenchman disagrees. "They're naked, and so beautiful. Clearly, they are French."

"No clothes, no shelter," the Russian points out, "they have only an apple to eat, and they're being told this is paradise. Clearly, they are Russian."

German scientists dug 50 metres underground and discovered small pieces of copper. After studying these pieces for a long time, Germany announced that the ancient Germans 25,000 years ago had a nationwide telephone network.

Naturally, the British government was not that easily impressed. They ordered their own scientists to dig even deeper. 100 metres down, they found small pieces of glass, and they soon announced that the ancient Brits 35,000 years ago already had a nationwide fibre net.

Israeli scientists were outraged. They dug 50, 100 and 200 metres underground, but found absolutely nothing......They concluded that the ancient Hebrews 55,000 years ago had cellular telephones.

A tourist from Bulgaria visited the United States on his first overseas trip. Upon arrival at the Immigration desk, he is visibly puzzled filling his visa application. The Immigration officer looks over his shoulder, and sees the tourist trying to write "Twice a week" into the small space labeled "SEX".

The officer explained: "No, no, no. That is not what we mean by this question. We are asking 'Male' or 'Female'."

"Does it matter?" the tourist answered.

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

A pregnant Irish woman from Dublin is involved in a car accident and falls into a deep coma. Asleep for nearly 6 months, when she wakes up she sees that she is no longer pregnant and frantically asks the doctor about her baby.

The doctor replies, "Ma'am you had twins! a boy and a girl. Your Uncle from Cork came in and named them."

The woman thinks to herself, "Oh No, not my Uncle... he's an idiot!"

She asks the doctor,"Well, what's the girl's name?"

"Denise."

"Wow, that's not a bad name, I like it! What's the boy's name?"

"Denephew."

There was a Japanese man who went to America for sightseeing. On the last day, he hailed a cab and told the driver to drive to the airport. During the journey, a Honda drove past the taxi. Thereupon, the man leaned out of the window excitedly and yelled, "Honda, very fast! Made in Japan!"

After a while, a Toyota sped past the taxi. Again, the Japanese man leaned out of the window and yelled, "Toyota, very fast! Made in Japan!"

And then a Mitsubishi sped past the taxi. For the third time, the Japanese leaned out of the window and yelled, "Mitsubishi, very fast! Made in Japan!"

The driver was a little angry, but he kept quiet. And this went on for quite a number of cars. Finally, the taxi came to the airport. The fare was US$300.

The Japanese exclaimed, "Wah... so expensive!"

There upon, the driver yelled back, "Meter, very fast! Made in Japan!"

Joe, don't you just love it when your bedtime is pretty much as soon as you get home. crazy Hope work flies by tomorrow.

Have a fantastic day, Space Quest.

Glad you're getting to enjoy all those extra hikes, Ana. grin Hope you have a great day.

It's Tuesday night for me, and I'm off to sleep for yet another work day. Luckily, it won't be as long as the last two days, but still long enough. lol Hopefully, I'll be able to practice singing after work again for the rest of the week. I haven't been able to for the last couple of days, as I've been getting off so late.

As for now, I'm off to sleep. Have a great Wednesday, everyone. fall

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll puppy

Doggies and I got our walk in early. We were just finishing our first lap when the tornado alert went off. I think it was just a test, but the sky was icky looking and I didn't want to take a chance with the dogs. So we skipped our 2nd lap and came on home.

Made smoothies, fed dogs, fed me, and finally it's time to sit, sip, and surf.

Joe, have a great day at work.

Ana, have a wonderful hike!

Venus, hope the day goes as planned.

Gerry, enjoy wave

Connie, it's humid here too. Felt like I could cut the air this morning.

Gail, glad your walk was a good one.

Happy skooshing, Darlene

Back later wave

Hi everyone. Today is my day off and boy it really helped not to have to go to work today. I'm still recovering from my skin cancer surgery. It was much more serious than I thought but I'm doing better. I wish the plastic surgeon was more optomystic though. He's not sure the skin graft will take. Man, I sure hope so. I really don't want to have to go through all that again. But I'm thinking positive.

Don'tcha just love this weather ? I don't want it to end. Have a great rest of the day.

Well it's only 6:30 here and someone already turned the page to Thursday.
Has become a busy time; helping a neighbor home from the hospital after a partial lung removal, checking with another elderly neighbor that just lost his wife to MS; watching another neighbors dogs for 6 weeks and wrapped the first part of this week delivering Thanksgiving dinners (this is an annual event put on by the church). I think I'm forgetting something...
