A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kickboxing.

Catherine, pregnant with her first child, paid a visit to her obstetrician's office. After the exam, she shyly began, "My husband wants me to ask you..." "I know, I know," the doctor said, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "I get asked that all the time. Sex is fine until late in the pregnancy." "No, that's not it," Catherine confessed. "He wants to know if I can still mow the lawn."
~~~~~~~~~~


When the store manager returned from lunch, he noticed his clerk's hand was bandaged, but before he could ask about the bandage, the clerk said he had some very good news for him.

"Guess what, sir?" the clerk said. "I finally sold that terrible, ugly suit we've had so long!"

"Do you mean that repulsive pink-and-blue double-breasted thing?" the
manager asked.

"That's the one!"

"That's great!" the manager cried, "I thought we'd never get rid of that
monstrosity! That had to be the ugliest suit we've ever had! But tell me. Why is your hand bandaged?"

"Oh," the clerk replied, "after I sold the suit, the guy's guide dog bit me."
~~~~~~~~~

An old woman is riding a crowded bus and has to stand with her heavy packages. Finally, someone in front of her gives up a seat and so she grabs it.
"Thank God," she says.
A man in the seat behind her says "Ecxuse me comerade, but this is an athiest society. You should say 'Thank Stalin,' not 'Thank God.'"
"Of course you are right," the old woman says. "Thank Stalin." She is silent for a moment, then says: "Comerade, I have just had a terrible thought:
What shall we say when Stalin dies?"
The man behind her replies "In that case I think we can say 'Thank God.'"
~~~~~~~~~~

So you want a day off.

Let's take a look at what you are asking for.
There are 365 days per year available for work.
There are 52 weeks per year in which you already have 2 days off per week, leaving 261 days available for work. Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you have used up 170 days, leaving only 91 days available.
You spend 30 minutes each day on coffee break which counts for 23 days each year, leaving only 68 days available. With a 1 hour lunch each day, you used up another 46 days, leaving only 22 days available for work.
You normally spend 2 days per year on sick leave. This leaves you only 20 days per year available for work.
We are off 5 holidays per year, so your available working time is down to 15 days.
We generously give 14 days vacation per year which leaves only 1 day available for work, and I'll be darned if you are going to take that day off!

GREAT!! So.....I work today then I'm off the rest of the year? I think I can handle that.
~~~~~~~~~~~


Tragically, three friends die in a car crash, and they find themselves at the gates of heaven. Before entering, they are each asked a question by St. Peter.

"When you are in your casket and friends and family are mourning upon you, what would you like to hear them say about you?" asks St. Peter.

The first guy says, "I would like to hear them say that I was a great doctor of my time, and a great family man."

The second guy says, "I would like to hear that I was a wonderful husband and school teacher who made a huge difference in our children of tomorrow."

The last guy replies, "I would like to hear them say, "Look! He's moving!"
~~~~~~~~

An elderly man and his wife decided to separate. Before being
allowed to do so legally, the Family Court insisted they undergo some
counselling from the marriage guidance mob, to see if their union could be
saved.
The counselor did her best, but to no avail. The old folk were absolutely determined to go through with separation leading to divorce.
Finally, in some desperation, the counselor said: "But you're 95 and your wife is 93. You've been married for 72 years! Why do you want to separate now??"
To which the wife replied: "We haven't been able to stand each other for the last 46 years. But we thought we should wait until all the children died before we split up."
~~~~~~~~~


Two cannibals, a father and son, were elected by the tribe to go out and get something to eat. They walked deep into the jungle and waited by a path.

Before long, along came this little old man. The son said, "Ooh dad, there's one." "No," said the father. "There's not enough meat on that one to even feed the dogs. We'll just wait."

Well, a little while later, along came this really fat man. The son said, "Hey dad, he's plenty big enough." "No," the father said. "We'd all die of a heart attack from the fat in that one. We'll just wait."

About an hour later, here comes this absolutely gorgeous woman.

The son said, "Now there's nothing wrong with that one dad. Let's eat her."

"No," said the father. "We'll not eat her either."

"Why not?" asked the son.

"Because, we're going to take her back alive and eat your mother."
~~~~~~~~~~~

At communion you go back for seconds.

You think of a lottery ticket as an investment.

You're formulating a plan to rob the food bank.

Long distance companies don't call you to switch.

You give blood everyday.. just for the orange juice.

McDonald's is the supplier of all your kitchen condiments.

American Express calls and says: "Leave home without it!"

Your idea of a 7-course meal is taking a deep breath outside a restaurant.

You've rolled so many pennies, you've formed a psychic bond with Abe Lincoln.
~~~~~~~~~~

Good morning everyboomie. welcome

Welcome to the weekend!! grin Mine yay

We're looking at possible rain/snow mix, and a high of 37 think 37 minus 4.

Which means exactly nothing. Which is probably what I'll be doing. razz

Well not exactly nothing. I mean I will breath....some, and most likely I'll eat a little, but other than that I'll be doing nothing. thumbsup

Oops! I forgot something else. I'm sure I'll pee a few times.

So breathing, eating, and peeing is all I'll do today, but other than those, I'll do nothing. penguin

Oh darn, I forgot something else. I'll simply have to blink, because I don't think anyone can get through a whole day without blinking once or twice.

Ok so other than breathing, eating, peeing, and blinking once or twice I'm doing exactly NOTHING, and that's final. yes

Have a happy day everyone.

joe






I may sleep some. That's doing something too, right?

Hello Boomers!

Hope you are all keeping well!

Been busy...although I haven't had much baking to do yet, I've been working on new designs for 2014. Hope to share them with you when done. I'll have to invest in a bigger mixer as the one I have now isn't coping with the load!

We're having the weirdest weather, this is the wettest winter we've had for years....still waiting for some snow! winter The rain has been relentless but nowhere near as bad as the southern half of Britain, a lot of places have been flooded since Christmas with no sign of a let-up. I feel so sorry for those whose homes and businesses are under water, not to mention the erosion of our coastline. sad

Stock-taking today so will see what needs replenished!

To all here and all who follow later...have a great day guys!

Good morning everybody. wave

Connie thanks for the waffles! bravo

I love to lather mine up with butter, and pour hot syrup over them. hearts

I'm going to have to take the puppy to the vet here in just a little while. yes

It's very cold and gloomy here just as predicted, but no rain yet. duh

Two more days off that are not good for anything other than staying inside where it's warm. sad

At least my weekend is going to be back up in the 60's. bravo

I hope you all have a super day. thumbsup

Good morning boomies and birthday Nan!

It's another below zero day here. I can't keep up with feeding my wildlife this winter, we have so much more than normal.

Peter and two friends came to visit as we were going to bed last night. What a wonderful surprise! We had a nice hour visit before they went back to the city.

I am in the corner all day...I moved Nan's cake to the Diner counter as it was too tempting. grin

Have a fantastic day!

Magnificent Monday ya'll puppy

I've been up for awhile. I have been very productive, and will continue to be God willing. I'll be bombing out to take the doggies walking as soon as I post as it's going to be cold and icky and rainy tomorrow and for most of the rest of the week.

I made some body wash this morning, so will shower up after my walk and see how I like it. Then I'm going to make toothpaste and see if I can find an essential oil to use instead of Cortisone cream on my dermatitis.

First though I'll make chicken soup for son..he is icky sicky and called out of work which upset them to no end. I really don't get that a resturant would want someone who is coughing, sneezing, and dripping cooking.

Joe, I'm with you. Your plans sound wonderful. Enjoy! luck at the vet.


birthday Nan birthday

Off to walk before I get lazy, or busy!

Hello everybody. wave

My day was cold and a little disappointing. yes

I took the puppy to the vet, but they wouldn't take him because of a contagion in the clinic. They said if they kept him there he would get sick. She took his picture and sent it to a lady who finds homes for them. She called me and wanted more pictures. It seems he is a Great Pyrenees, and she has a couple who are looking for one, but they are very picky. puppy

I sent her a slew of pictures. I have not heard back from her yet.

In related news, I hit some ice on a bridge while on the way to the vet's office, and almost flipped my truck. I ended up pointing the opposite direction, and in the traffic lanes on the opposite side of the road. woot WEEEEEEEEEE!

I think my truck almost had a heart attack. lol

Good Evening Boomers! Joe!! That was too close!! Just very glad you are okay. If that little guy is what they say he is ..he is going to be a very big boy when he grows up!! I sure hope you can place him in a loving home soon. You are such a good guy!! Hit to everyone else. We are making progress with my Mum, slow but sure. She has an appointment on the 25th for a mental eval and once is diagnosed we will be eligible for a lot of help that is covered by Medicare. I am cautiously optimistic!! Now we are waiting for another round of storms that will bring more wind, and you know how I dislike that and up to 10-14" of rain to our region this week into the weekend. Praying we don't float or blow away. All scheduled to begin tomorrow afternoon. Ugh!!! Take care everyone who is in the path of similar or worse and Happy Gaming!!!! wave

Oh my goodness Joe. I'm so happy that you weren't hurt. I imagine it was very scary. Lotus my prayers go out to you. Ana you make me laugh. You know no one will look if you have a bite. smile

See you in the morning. I have another split shift. Ugh! I'm getting too old for this.

I'm sorry for being awol. I am in the corner and really have no time to breathe today. I need about an extra ten hours added to my day.

Eeek Joe, glad you are ok.

Great Pyrenees....woohoo...I would love to have him, if I could. Those can't be common.

Boys will be here tomorrow for the rest of the week.

Lotus, I'm glad things are progressing for mom, if slowly.

Ana, wish you could clone yourself. wave

Midgy, you guys getting this new storm?
