I was especially interested in these as back in the 70's Paul and I worked delivering Pepsi products from a small warehouse to many small stores around our area. He was a Pepsi distributor and I went along helping him some 12-14 hours a day sorting empty bottles while he carted the product in to the stores. Long hard days. So I can relate to these old delivery haulers and truckers.

A prospective lessee shows up and says he wants to rent the space on the left for a men's wear shop. "That's fine," the mall manager says. "You get free signage; what do you want on the sign?" "Men's Wear," says the man. A second guy comes along and asks to rent the right hand space for his gentleman's formal wear business. When asked he says he wants "Men's Wear" on his sign. The mall manager tells him that the left hand shop will have the same sign. "No problem," says the man. Finally a third man comes along to rent the middle space. The manager is somewhat concerned because this guy also has a men's wear shop. Warily the manager asks the third man what he wants on his sign. The guy replies: "Entrance." -<>- A road crew supervisor hired a nice-looking blonde woman to assist with painting the yellow line down the middle of the road. He was skeptical about hiring her, but she appeared enthusiastic and told him that she really needed the job. He explained to her that her work day would be to complete 2 miles of line on her road, and he set her up with her brushes and paint and got her started. After the first day, he was pleased to find that she did an excellent job and was able to paint 4 miles of road in her 8 hour shift. He told her that she did an excellent job and how pleased he was with her progress. On the second day, she completed painting 2 miles of road. Her supervisor was surprised that on day one she had completed twice as much work, but did not say anything, as 2 miles of road was the amount that the job required anyway. He decided to just accept it, and to look forward to the next day when he was sure she would pick up her speed again. On day 3 he was shocked to learn that in her 8 hour shift, she only completed painting 1 mile of road. He called her into his office and asked her what was the problem, "On your first day, you completed 4 miles of road, on your second day, 2 miles of road, and now on day 3, you were only able to complete 1 mile of road. Can I ask you, what is the problem?" "Well," she replied, "I keep getting farther and farther from the paint can." ======================================================= +------------ BIZARRE HOLIDAYS ------------+ September 19 is International Talk Like A Pirate Day September 20 is National Punch Day September 21 is International Peace Day, Miniature Golf Day and World Gratitude Day September 22 is Autumn Equinox - Fall begins!, Business Women's Day Elephant Appreciation Day, and 22 Hobbit Day September 23 is Checkers Day, Dog in Politics Day and Native American Day September 24 is International Rabbit Day and National Cherries Jubilee Day September 25 is National Comic Book Day ======================================================= _____ .-" .-.

Agnus Dei was a woman composer famous for her church music. A refrain in music is the part you better not try to sing. A virtuoso is a musician with real high morals. John Sebastian Bach died from 1750 to the present. Handel was half German, half Italian, and half English. He was rather large. Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling him. I guess he could not hear so good. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died from this. Henry Purcell is a well known composer few people have ever heard of. Aaron Copland is one of your most famous contemporary composers. It is unusual to be contemporary. Most composers do not live until they are dead. An opera is a song of bigly size. In the last scene of Pagliacci, Canio stabs Nedda who is the one he really loves. Pretty soon Silvio also gets stabbed, and they all live happily ever after. Music sung by two people at the same time is called a duel. I know what a sextet is but I had rather not say. Most authorities agree that music of antiquity was written long ago. My very best liked piece of music is the Bronze Lullaby. My favorite composer is Opus. Question: What are kettle drums called? Answer: Kettle drums. For some reason, they always put a treble clef in front of every line of flute music. You just watch. The most dangerous part about playing cymbals is near the nose. Just about any animal skin can be stretched over a frame to make a pleasant sound once the animal is removed. -<>- >Cooking Terms Tongue: A variety of meat, rarely served because it clearly crosses the line between a cut of beef and a piece of dead cow. Yogurt: Semi-solid dairy product made from partially evaporated and fermented milk. Yogurt is one of only three foods that taste exactly the same as they sound. The other two are goulash and squid. Recipe: A series of step-by-step instructions for preparing ingredients you forgot to buy, in utensils you don't own, to make a dish the dog won't eat. Porridge: Thick oatmeal rarely found on American tables since children were granted the right to sue their parents. The name is an amalgamation of the words "Putrid," "hORRId," and "sluDGE." Preheat: To turn on the heat in an oven for a period of time before cooking a dish, so that the fingers may be burned when the food is put in, as well as when it is removed. Oven: Compact home incinerator used for disposing of bulky pieces of meat and poultry. Microwave Oven: Space-age kitchen appliance that uses the principle of radar to locate and immediately destroy any food placed within the cooking compartment. Calorie: Basic measure of the amount of rationalization offered by the average individual prior to taking a second helping of a particular food. -<>- >Eggplants A grocer put up a sign that read "Eggplants, 25 cents each -- three for a dollar." All day long, customers came in exclaiming: "Don't be ridiculous! I should get four for a dollar!" Meekly the grocer capitulated and packaged four eggplants. The tailor next door had been watching these antics and finally asked the grocer, "Aren't you going to fix the mistake on your sign?" "What mistake?" the grocer asked. "Before I put up that sign no one ever bought more than one eggplant." -<>- >Insomnia My husband, an accountant, and I both suffer from occasional bouts of insomnia. One night I suggested we try a technique I'd read about, which was to encourage relaxation. Laying with our eyes closed, I described a relaxing scene: "We're in a beautiful, oceanside bungalow on a tropical island. A gentle breeze is coming through the French doors that lead to our private ocean path." My husband's quiet voice startled me from my peaceful place. "How much is this vacation costing us?" -<>- >Long Wait When I took my Weed Eater back to the home-and-garden store to get it fixed, I was asked if I wanted to wait until the job was done. "How long will it take?" I asked. The clerk answered, "A day or two." ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend LouiseA :) \\ ///// | | (| _ _ |) |` | '| | __ | >>>___/\_^__/\___<<< / ||| \ Mike Hertz >SMILES A Marine private was filling out a questionnaire for a correspondence course. He got to this question: "How long has your present employer been in business?" He thought for a moment, then wrote: "Since 1775." -------- A man is driving down a highway and has a flat tire. As he gets out to change the tire, he notices his tire is flat in front of Riverview Sanitarium. As he pops the hubcap and places all the lug nuts in it, he sees a gentlemen watching him. This makes him nervous so he works faster to change the tire. As he drops the flat one he hits the hub cap and knocks all the lug nuts down the storm drain. It dawns on him he can't get the tire on because now he has no lug nuts to hold it. He looks up at the sky and starts screaming and cursing because now he is stuck here. The gentlemen inside the fence suggests removing one lug nut from each of the other tires, the guy looks at him and says, "That's pretty smart. What are you doing in there?" The gentlemen inside the fence looks at him and says, "I'm insane not stupid". -------- A man suffering from a severe case of flatulence goes to the doctor. Man: Doctor, I have a terrible (FARRRT!) problem. I just can't (FFFART!!) stop farting. Doctor: That is an unusual complaint. Take off your clothes and lay, stomach down, on the couch. The man does as he is told. The doctor examines him for a minute - the man farting all the time this is going on. Doctor: Aha! This should be easy to cure. Excuse me for a moment. The doctor goes over to a closet and pulls out a long pole with a sharp spike at one end. Man: (FAART!) Oh my! (fart..) What are you going to do with (FFFARTT!!) that?! Doctor: I need to open a window. ------ One day in class, the teacher told everyone to turn to a blank sheet of paper in their notebooks. She noticed that Moose, a rather dense jock, was having trouble with her directions. "Have you found a blank piece yet, Moose?" said the teacher. "Nope. I haven't," he said. "Somebody went through and drew lines across all the pages." -------- A doctor has come to see one of his patients in a hospital. The patient has had major surgery to both of his hands. "Doctor," says the man excitedly and dramatically holds up his heavily bandaged hands. "The nurse told me that I will be able to play the piano when these bandages come off?" "I don't see why not," replies the doctor. "Hmmm, then I better start learning how to read music." -------- After booking my 80-year-old grandmother on a flight from Florida to Nevada, I called the airline to go over her special needs. The representative listened patiently as I requested a wheelchair and an attendant for my mother because of her arthritis and impaired vision to the point of near blindness. My apprehension lightened a bit when the woman assured me that everything would be taken care of. I thanked her profusely. "Oh, you're welcome," she replied. I was about to hang up when she cheerfully asked, "And will your grandmother need a rental car?" -------- When she died in 1997 at the age of 120, Jeanne Calment was the oldest living human whose birth date could be authenticated. At the age of 118, she was asked to describe her vision for the future. She replied, "Very brief." -------- Coming out of church, Mrs. Peterson asked her husband, "Do you think that Johnson girl is tinting her hair?" "I didn't even see her," admitted Mr. Peterson. "And that dress Mrs. Hansen was wearing," continued Mrs. Peterson, "Really, don't tell me you think that's the proper costume for a mother of two." "I'm afraid I didn't notice that either," answered Mr. Peterson. "Oh, for heaven's sake!" snapped Mrs. Peterson. "A lot of good it does YOU to go to church!" -------- It was afternoon in the crowded cafeteria. The elderly matron sitting at the counter was obviously upset at the cigarette smoke of the young blonde woman beside her. Finally the older woman could take it no longer. She turned to the blonde and bellowed with a loud voice, "Young lady, I would rather commit adultery than smoke!" "So would I!" quipped the blonde, "but you know, there just isn't TIME enough during a ten-minute coffee break." -------- At a yard sale one day I saw a box marked "Electronic cat and dog caller -- guaranteed to work." After I looked inside, I was amused to see an electric can opener. ------- A couple had been married for 40 years and also celebrated their 60th birthdays. During the celebration, a fairy godmother appeared and said that because they had been such a loving couple all those years, she would give them one wish each. Being the faithful, loving spouse for all these years, naturally the wife wanted for her and her husband to have a romantic vacation together, so she wished for them to travel around the world. The fairy godmother waved her wand and boom! She had the tickets in her hand. Next, it was the husband's turn and the fairy godmother assured him he could have any wish he wanted, all he needed to do was ask for his heart's desire. He paused for a moment, then said, "Well, honestly, I'd like to have a woman 30 years younger than me." The fairy godmother picked up her wand and boom! He was 90!! -------- A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store but she couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked a stock clerk, "Do these turkeys get any bigger?" The stock boy replied, "No ma'am," he explained, "they're dead." -------- Today, in the cutest voice, my eight-year-old daughter asked me to start recycling. I chuckled and asked her, "Why?" She replied, "So you can help me save the planet." I chuckled again; then I asked, "And why do you want to save the planet?" "Because that's where I keep all my stuff." -------- Little Johnny opened his birthday gift from Grandma It was a water pistol! He squealed with delight and headed for the nearest sink. His mother was not so pleased. She turned to Grandma and said, "I'm surprised at you, getting him a water pistol! Don't you remember how we used to drive you crazy with those?" Grandma just smiled: "Yes...I remember." --- ...LOL!

If Trump loses it is the fault of the Republican party and the media who are having a great time twisting truth and ignoring the fact that Clinton has lied over and over, she lied to everyone about her emails, lied about her health, lied just about everything that left her mouth. We have no idea what her plans are, she is too busy putting Trump down. He has said what his plans are and when he thought about it was honest enough to say he made a mistake. I believe with the people he has chosen to serve the presidency with him will do the job to clean up this mess. I know people suffering because they have lost Obamacare, the insurance companies are leaving. Whole towns are without coverage, people are being killed by the terrorists, I could go on and on. Trump has talked about these and other things wrong with America. Clinton instead makes excuses and instead lies and puts down everything Trump says. I can't see one positive thing she has done for our country. I've lost my whole trust with the newspapers. They print the negative and ignore the positive part of Trumps campaign. I am 82 years old and so worried about our country, I've been out doing door to door, and waving my flag and sign at rally's on weekends because I would like to finally see a good president, someone like Reagan to get this country where other countries are not taking over and making fun of America. As Trump says, "Let's make America great again". --- ...So True! Well said! Thanks Fran! Here is the main difference between the two candidates: Obama and Hilary Clinton are globalists http://tinyurl.com/htmob3y Which is defined as: glob·al·ist ??l?b?list/ noun noun: globalist; plural noun: globalists; adjective: globalist a person who advocates the interpretation or planning of economic and foreign policy in relation to events and developments throughout the world. a person or organization advocating or practicing operations across national divisions. While Donald Trump is a Nationalist http://tinyurl.com/hymrt29 Which is defined as: na·tion·al·ist ?naSH(?)n?l?st/ noun plural noun: nationalists a person who advocates political independence for a country. a person with strong patriotic feelings, especially one who believes in the superiority of their country over others. That is the two choices we have. Personally I live HERE in America so my loyalty is for America not for any other country! I want to make America Great Again and want America to be UNITED Again into ONE Great Country UNDER GOD! I am a conservative so I am for Donald Trump! And not for any one who would LIE to me for their own gain like Hilary has done to us over and over and over again! She is a certified FBI Liar! What more does the American people need to understand about her as a presidential candidate? She says Trump is unfit to be president because he is straight forward and tells it like it is while she covers everything she does up and lies more often when she doesn't even have to lie! She is the one who is unfit. She has more experience being a politician. About 30 years in office and when you think of what positive thing has she accomplished in her 30 years for the American people, there is little you can think of. Mostly her time has been positive for her own gain - she has gotten to be a millionaire - while we the people have suffered. Remember - the OPPOSITE is true with Hilary! IF you want the truth from a habitual liar you just figure the opposite is the real truth. Is she a liar? She says she hasn't lied but the FBI director confirmed she lied at least 5 times to us and the congress just over her emails. Is her Clinton Foundation a good charity? She says it is but we know she used it to gain billions of dollars abusing her State department power and in 2013 less than 10% of the proceeds were actually used for charity. Is she healthy? She says she is but we see she is not. Is she for woman? She says she is but she took millions from countries that depress their woman and treat them as slaves that they own and she defended a child rapist and laughed when he passed a lie detector test saying she lost all confidence in them from that day on and continued to get the man off on his charges while the girl he raped was scarred for life and she made life a living heck for any who accused her husband of rape or s#@ual harassment back when he was president! So NO, she is not for women. Is she for African Americans? She says she is but she talks down to them and a man she referred to as one who was her mentor and she said she greatly admired was a known ex-KKK leader! The media is in her pocket. This is how bad it is. I wanted to share that Trump provided his medical records on the Dr.Oz show with you, but I watched my local news and they said Trump gave a little bit of his medical information to Dr. Oz, implying he was not being transparent with his health to us and I Googled it but only found left spins on part of the show. I had recorded it so I watched the show the next day. I was stunned. Trump answered all of Dr.Oz's questions including his full family medical history and provided Dr. Oz with his latest yearly medical check up blood and test results along with a letter from his doctor detailing his past test results from an EKG, Ultrasound, And a Colonoscopy. After all results were disclosed to the entire audience including Trump admitting he'd like to loose some 15lbs, Dr.Oz told him that if he were his patient with these results that he'd say he was good to go! He also said Trump is perfectly fit to be the president! No problem! Very healthy. The evidence is clear. She and the media who support her will not tell us the truth. You cannot believe her ads or the news media. They distort and lie to further another Obama term with Clinton in the white house. It's going to take all of us praying and supporting Trump as best we can or we'll have another 4 years of a dismal America. -<>- FULL EVENT: Donald Trump Rally in Miami, Florida (9/16/2016) Donald Trump LES DEPLORABLES Speech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_-WTTM8o9A Hillary Camp Caught Literally Stealing From Low-Income Donors “I’m only talking to you because what Hillary’s doing is so messed up,” he said. “She’s stealing from her poorest supporters.” http://conservativetribune.com/hillary-camp-stealing-from-donors/ Media Outraged After Trump Tricks Them To Cover Endorsements From Military Heroes http://tinyurl.com/zfxh9ks Black Dallas Cop Sues Black Lives Matter, Soros for Inciting Race War http://tinyurl.com/jhqt268 >From BizarreNews: If you want things done right you have to do them yourself. Sometimes even if you are a respected fertility doctor. 77-year-old Donald L. Cline was arrested on a charge of obstruction of justice after allegedly using his own sperm to impregnate many women who came to him for fertility treatments. In court, Cline pleaded not guilty to the charge. He was released from custody without bail. The court was told that Cline was named as the father of several people who took DNA tests. Cline allegedly once said that he may have used his sperm 50 times to impregnate women. He allegedly told one of his biological daughters that he was just trying to help people have babies, and now that he has found God, he recognizes that what he did was wrong because he hurt people. And while the whole thing is fairly disgusting, not to mention immoral, it's still impressive since he is so old. *--- Inventor Shows Off Air Conditioned Suit ---* A Louisiana inventor came up with an innovative, if impractical, way to beat the summer heat -- an air conditioned bodysuit. A video posted to YouTube shows a man in a hazmat-style bodysuit with only his hands outside of the garment. The suit is puffed out like a balloon due to an air hose attached to an air conditioning unit, which is in turn connected to a gas-powered engine. The invention might be keeping the man cool, but its portability is limited due to the equipment he has to pull around in a wagon. The uploader said the suit can also be heated for the winter and includes a dehumidifier function. The test took place "in a 114-degree heat index ambient atmosphere of Louisiana." The cure for cancer can't be far off. *----- This Is What You Call a Sore Loser -----* A man was arrested on a charge of stalking after allegedly mailing dead animals to a teacher who was hired instead of the suspect, according to police in Indiana. French Lick police said that they have arrested 40-year-old Travis Tarrants, after being accused of harassing the new teacher and his fiancee. Tarrants was charged with stalking, intimidation and criminal mischief. According to the police investigation, Tarrants applied for a teaching job at the Springs Valley School Corporation. His application was rejected, and school officials hired another man. Tarrants immediately began harassing the new teacher and his fiancee. He mailed the couple multiple dead animals, including skunks and raccoons. Tarrants then sent multiple letters to the school, claiming that the new teacher was having s#x with a 15-year-old girl. He then left a voicemail on the couple's phone, threatening to kill the fiancee and her baby. *--------------------- No ---------------------* Police say a Florida man asking if a bulletproof vest "still worked" was fatally shot by his cousin. A Tampa police report says Joaquin Mendez, 23, put on the vest and "wondered aloud whether it still worked." Police say his cousin, Alexandro Garibaldi, 24, pulled out a gun and responded, "Let's see." Officers found Mendez outside the house with a gunshot wound in his chest. Mendez died at a hospital. According to the report, Garibaldi initially told officers he found his wounded cousin after hearing a gunshot. However, police say a witness described Garibaldi shooting Mendez. Police say the vest was found inside the house with a gunshot. *-- It's Like a Flat Tire On Your Wedding Day --* New Hampshire resident Angelique Arsenault was having a very bad day when her limo got a flat tire on the way to her wedding in Milford. "It didn't even seem real at the time, but it happened," Angelique said. Just five minutes from her house, the limo carrying her bridesmaids and family abruptly pulled over. "We just laughed about it," Angelique said. "We actually had cars driving by us and they just took pictures and left and then finally someone actually stopped to see if we needed a ride." The driver who stopped was a man named Jay. He had a car full of kids but he was determined to help. So he dropped them off, returned, and asked the bride, "where to?" Angelique and her bridal party arrived only thirty minutes late. The groom was patiently waiting. ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend Linda :) ~ ~ ( o )o) ( o )o )o) (o( ~~~~~~~~o ( )' ~~~~~~~' ( )|) |-. o| _ |-. \ o| |_||_) | \ \ | | ||_) | | | o| | / / | |."

Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at their "secret" base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room. The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the investigation. By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot really was lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up his air- plane, gave him a terrifying "you-did-not-see-a-base" briefing, told him Vegas was that-a-way and sent him on his way. The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP's surrounded the plane...only this time there were two people in the plane. The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night." -<>- The local high school has a policy that the parents must call the school if a student is to be absent for the day. Alice deciding to skip school and go to the mall with her friends. So she waited until her parents had left for work and called the school herself. "Hi, I'm calling to report that Alice is unable to make it to school today because she is ill." Secretary at high school answered, "I'm sorry to hear that. I'll note her absence. Who is this calling please?" "This is my mother." -<>- One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?" The mother smiled. "I can't dear," she said. 'I have to sleep in Daddy's room." The little boy replied with a shaking voice, "The big sissy." -<>- I came home one night and my wife was crying. I said, "whats wrong?" She said, "I'm home sick." I said, "But, this IS your home." "I know," she replied, "and I'm sick of it!" -<>- The Wolf Man comes home one evening from a long day at the office. "How was work today, dear?" his wife asks. "Honey, please! I don't want to talk about work right now!" he shouts. "Okay. Would you like me to fix you something to eat? Or how about a drink?" she asks oh so nicely. "Listen," he shouts again, "I'm not hungry, I'm not thirsty! Is that alright with you? Can I come home from work and just do my own thing without you forcing food down my throat? huh?" At that very moment, the wolf man started growling, and throwing things around the apartment in a mad rage. Looking out the window, his wife sees a full moon and says to her- self, "Well, I guess it's that time of the month." -<>- Two friends meet in the street. The one man looked rather forlorn and down in the mouth. The other man asked, "Hey, how come you look like the whole world caved in?" The sad fellow said, "Let me tell you. Three weeks ago, an uncle died and left me ten thousand dollars." "I'm sorry to hear about the death, but a bit of good luck for you, eh?" "Hold on, I'm just getting started. Two weeks ago, a cousin I never knew kicked the bucket and left me twenty thousand, free and clear." "Well, you can't be disappointed with that!" "Yep. But, last week my grandfather passed away. I inherited almost one hundred thousand dollars." "Incredible... so how come you look so glum?" "Well, this week...nothing!" ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend Gh0striders :) .===================================================================. || __ _ __ __ __ __ __ .. __ || || -=]|__ /_\ |__) |__ |__) / \ |\ /| |__) | | |__/ |__ |\ | || || -=]| / \ | \ | | \ \__/ | \/ | | \__/ | \ |__ | \| || || ___ || || .'

Well, two days ago, this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends and had more than several whiskies, followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice red wine. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit. That's when I did something I've never done before - I took a taxi home! Sure enough on the way there was a police roadblock, but since it was a taxi they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident. This was a real surprise to me, because I had never driven a taxi before. I don't know where I got it, and now that it's in my garage I don't know what to do with it. So if any of you want to borrow it for your next party, give me a call. -<>- >Oh sweet marriage! A woman woke in the middle of the night to find her husband missing from their bed. In the stillness of the house, she could hear a muffled sound downstairs. She went downstairs and looked all around, still not finding her husband. Listening again, she could definitely hear moaning. She went down to the basement to find her husband, crouched in the corner facing the wall, crying. She asked him, "What's wrong with you?" He replied: "Remember when your father caught us together, when you were 16? Remember he said I had a choice: I could either marry you, or be sent away to prison for the next 20 years." Baffled, she said, "yes." The husband bawled, "I would have been released from prison today!" -<>- >Poor Mike Seven year old Mohammad entered his classroom on the first day of school. What's your name?", asked the teacher. "Mohammad," he replied. "You're in Ireland now," replied the teacher, "So from now on you will be known as Mike." Mohammad returned home after school. "How was your day, Mohammad?", his mother asked. "My name is not Mohammad. I'm in Ireland and now my name is Mike". "Are you ashamed of your name? Are you trying to dishonor your parents, your heritage, and your religion? Shame on you!" And his mother beat him. Then she called his father, who beat him again. The next day Mohammad returned to school. The teacher saw all of his fresh bruises. "What happened to you, Mike?", she asked. "Well shortly after becoming an Irishman, I was attacked by two fricking Muslims." -<>- >Scotsman A wealthy Arab Sheikh was admitted to the hospital for heart surgery, but prior to the surgery, they needed to store his type of blood in case the need arose. As the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found locally, so, the call went out. Finally a Scotsman was located who had a similar blood type. The Scot willingly donated his blood for the Arab. After the surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman in appreciation for giving his blood, a new BMW, 5 carats of diamonds, and $50,000 dollars. A couple of days later, once again, the Arab had to go through a corrective surgery. The hospital telephoned the Scotsman who was more than happy to donate more of his blood again. After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman a Thank-you card and a box of Chocolates. The Scotsman was shocked that the Arab did not reciprocate his kind gesture as he had before. He phoned the Arab and asked him: "I thought you would be generous again, that you would give me another BMW, diamonds and money... but you only gave me a Thank-you card and a box of Chocolates." To this the Arab replied: "Aye Laddie, but I have Scottish blood in me veins now!" -<>- >Stolen Car The proud owner of a magnificent 1956 Chevrolet convertible, wrote to say he had restored the car to perfection over the last few years, and sent this...... On a very warm summer afternoon he decided to take his car to town. It needed gas, as the gauge was practically on empty, but he wanted ice cream, so he headed first to his favorite ice cream shop. He had trouble finding a parking space and had to park the car down a side street. He noticed a group of young guys standing around smoking cigarettes and eyeing my car rather covetously. He was a bit uneasy leaving it there, but people often take interest in such an old and well-preserved car, so he went off to enjoy his ice cream. The line at the ice cream shop was long and it took him quite a while to return to his car. When he did, his worst fears were realized... his car was gone. He called the police and reported the theft and then went back and bought a quart of pistachio ice cream. About ten minutes later the police called him to say they had found the car abandoned near a gas station a few miles out of town. It was unharmed and he was relieved. It seems just before he called, the police had received a call from a young woman who was an employee at a self-service gas station. She told them that three young men had driven in with this beautiful old convertible. One of them came to the window and prepaid for 20 dollars-worth of gas. Then all three of them walked around the car, looking at it carefully, and then just walked away... without filling the tank. The question is, why would anybody steal a car, pay for gas that they never pumped, and then abandon the car later and walk away? Scroll down --- Answer: They couldn't find where to put the gas! -<>- /| __ : :o <"" "">|/ |""--""|n-. | |"`.| | .--. | || | ( ) |.-:' | "" |/" ( ) Ojo 98 ""--"" >Bless Seniors... It was raining hard and a big puddle had formed in front of the little Irish pub. An old man stood beside the puddle holding a stick with a string on the end and jiggled it up and down in the water. A curious gentleman asked what he was doing. 'Fishing,' replied the old man. 'Poor old bugger' thought the gentleman, so he invited the old man to have a drink in the pub. Feeling he should start some conversation while they were sipping their whisky, the gentleman asked, 'And how many have you caught today?' 'You're the eighth.' HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY! | --- ...LOL!
