What equipment will I need to go camping? A. You need a tent. Tent sizes are measured in units of men, as in "a three-man tent"; this tells you how many men are required to erect the tent if they are all professional tent engineers. Even then, the tent will collapse under unusual weather conditions, such as nightfall. You will also need a hatchet, for the spiders, and a credit card, for the motel. Q. Where should I go camping? A. The United States has a spectacular national park system with millions of unspoiled acres where wildlife is protected by federal laws. Avoid these places. You want a commercial facility with a name like "The Stop 'n' Squat Kountry Kamp-ground," where large animals cannot fit through the 6-inch gaps between the Winnebagos. Q. How much food should I take? A. A lot. You'll be providing food not only for your family, but also for the entire raccoon community. When I was a boy in rural Armonk, our garbage cans were regularly terrorized by a gang of brilliant criminal raccoons. I recall being awakened at 3 a.m. by loud noises and looking out the window to see, by moonlight, my father, a peace-loving Presbyterian minister, charging around in the bushes, wildly swinging a baseball bat and saying non-Presbyterian words. Of course, he did not get the raccoons; you NEVER get the raccoons. Q. What if I get lost? A. If you don't have a compass, stand very still and listen very carefully, until you hear this sound: "eh-eh-eh." That is Canada. -<>- >Hamster Care After buying her kids a pet hamster and after they PROMISED they would take care of it, Mom, as usual, ended up with the responsibility. One evening, exasperated, she asked them, "How many times do you think that hamster would have died if I hadn't looked after it?" After a moment, her youngest son replied quizzically, "Once?" -<>- >Car Entertainment In my job as an electronics salesman, I've seen the rise in popularity of sport-utility vehicles and mini-vans. This has created a market for rear-seat entertainment. Monitors that keep passengers occupied with movies and television have been selling like crazy. One day, as I was showing a young couple how a monitor could play videos, DVD's, and even pick up local TV stations, the husband asked matter-of-factly, "Does it get cable?" -<>- >Painting Selection At an art gallery, a woman and her 10-year-old son were having a tough time choosing between two paintings. They finally chose one that an autumn theme. "I see you prefer an autumn scene as opposed to a floral one," said the gallery owner, who happened to be nearby and witnessed the mother-son interaction. "No," said the boy. "This painting is wider, so it'll cover the three holes I put in the wall." -<>- >Interim School Superintendent An interim school superintendent, speaking at a city-wide PTA luncheon, assured members that he was always happy to hear from them about problems. He told them, "You can call day or night, at this number (gives phone number)." Suddenly there was a cry from the assistant superintendent.

He was all loaded down with the things he was going to steal. She had no weapon and was all alone. The only thing that she could think to do was quote scripture. So, she holds up a hand and says, "ACTS 2:38!!!" The burglar quakes in fear and then freezes to the point that she is able to get to the phone and call 911 for the cops. When the cops arrive, the burglar is still frozen in place. They are very much surprised that a woman alone with no weapon could do this. One of them asked the lady, "How did you do this?" The woman replied, "I quoted scripture." The cop turned the burglar, "What was it about the scripture that had such an effect on you?" The burglar replied, "Scripture! What scripture? I thought she said she had an ax and two 38's." ---------- Laura fell for her handsome new dentist like a ton of bricks and pretty soon had lured him into a series of passionate encounters in the dental clinic after hours. But one day he said sadly, 'Laura, honey, we have to stop seeing each other. Your husband's bound to get suspicious.' 'No way, sweetie, he's dumb as a post,' she assured him. 'Besides, we've been fooling around for six months now and he doesn't suspect a thing.' 'True,' agreed the dentist, 'but you're down to only one tooth!'? ---------- Amy and Jamie are old friends.

His owner was a fourth grader at a public elementary school. However, when the bell rang, the dog sidled inside the building and made it all the way to the child's classroom before a teacher noticed and shooed him outside, closing the door behind him. The dog sat down, whimpered and stared at the closed doors. Then God appeared beside the dog, patted his head, and said, 'Don't feel bad fella... they won't let ME in either'. ------- >Thoughts 1. Never raise your hands to your kids. It leaves your groin unprotected. 2. I'm not into working out. My philosophy is no pain, no pain. 3. I'm in shape. Round is a shape. 4. I'm desperately trying to figure out why Kamikaze pilots wore helmets. 5. Do you think illiterate people get the full affect of alphabet soup? 6. I've always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific. 7. Ever notice when you blow in a dog's face he gets mad at you, but when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window? 8. Ever notice that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster than you is a maniac? 9. You have to stay in shape. My mother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 now and we have no idea where she is. 10. I have six locks on my door, all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three of them. 11. One out of every three Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of two of your best friends. If they are OK, then it must be you. 12. They show you how detergent takes out bloodstains. I think if you've got a tee shirt with bloodstains all over it, maybe your laundry isn't your biggest problem. 13. Ask people why they have deer heads on their walls and they tell you it's because they're such beautiful animals. I think my wife is beautiful, but I only have photographs of her on the walls. 14. A lady came up to me on the street, pointed at my suede jacket and said, "Don't you know a cow was murdered for that jacket?" I said, "I didn't know there were any witnesses. Now I'll have to kill you too." 15. Future historians will be able to study at the Jimmy Carter Library, the Gerald Ford Library, the Ronald Reagan Library, and the Bill Clinton Adult Bookstore. --- ...LOL! Good Ones!

They make great covers for outdoor items in the winter (such as chairs, patio tables, grills, etc.), and they are invaluable as drop cloths. --- ...Speaking of covers, don't throw away those old used sheets. They make great covers for garage items or anything else you want to keep from getting dusty or dirty. Speaking of showers, do you know that you can use hair conditioner instead of shaving cream? If you are a lady who shaves her legs and under arms in the shower you can save a lot of money just by buying a cheap bottle of conditioner (usually not much more than a buck) to shave with instead of expensive shaving creams or gels. It leaves your legs and under arms smooth and silky. -<>- >Beat the heat this summer... * Wear cotton nightclothes and use cotton bedsheets. The simplest solutions are the best. Other fabrics like satin, silk and polyester won't help cool you down when it's too hot to sleep. Cotton is lightweight and allows for air circulation, making it the perfect fabric for bedding and nightwear. * Use a hot water bottle. Just as you can fill it with boiling water to keep you toasty during winter, you can fill it with water and stick it in the freezer. Use as a cooling ice pack at the foot of your bed. * Stay hydrated Keep a glass of water by your bedside table. It sounds simple, but staying hydrated can really help cool you down during balmy nights. * Have a cool shower Reduce your core temperature before you hop into bed with a cool or cold shower. You'd be surprised how well this works. * Use fans I use my ceiling fan in the bedroom on the slowest setting. It doesn't take much circulation to make your skin feel cool and keep the air currents moving throughout your house. When it gets hot and muggy outside, your home air conditioning system can really run up your energy bills unless you adopt a few smart energy-saving habits. Keep your vents clear. Your air conditioner can't work efficiently if your vents are blocked by rugs or furniture. Check all of your vents to make sure they're open, free of dust and directing air toward the center of the room. Block out the sun. Keeping the shades or blinds drawn on sun-facing windows is essential to keeping your home cool. It's hot enough outside, and firing up your oven won't make your air conditioner's job any easier. Outdoor grilling and microwave cooking are two ways to prepare food without generating extra heat. Curb daytime use of other big appliances. Some appliances - dryers and dishwashers in particular - can also put out a good deal of unwanted heat. Wait until after dark to run these and other large appliances. -<>- 'Go Green' Hint: Have you ever blown cash to buy chemical fertilizer for your garden or your house plants? Of course you have. However, you can save yourself the cash, save yourself the chemicals and save a little fresh water, not to mention the perfect fertilizer, from being poured down the drain. A lot of water that goes down the drain can be used to water plants. Water that you use to steam vegetables, cook potatoes, corn or boil eggs can be reused to water your plants. All of those nutrients leeched from your veggies go right back into the soil. The plants love it! Just make sure there is no oil or salt in the water. Also, when you clean out your aquarium you can use that water to water your plants. Great for the soil. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: President Trump Delivers Remarks on Supporting the Passage of the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuJFwyRMkCY President Trump Delivers Remarks on Citizenship and the Census https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3gxPVjQ8v0 President Trump Hosts the 3rd Annual Made in America Product Showcase https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJs0o6LGWt8 President Trump Hosts A Social Media Summit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csW1ZyQ_Ilg President Trump slams tech companies for bias https://tinyurl.com/y2pwk325 Trump Officially Issues Executive Order to Tally Citizens Through the Commerce Department -Washington Examiner https://tinyurl.com/y5ctv9fk Trump Effort to Tackle Kidney Disease Could Have Big Impact on Georgia -The Atlanta Journal-Constitution https://tinyurl.com/y6p5b79q Cultural Terrorists Attack Real History - SurvivalUpdate: https://tinyurl.com/yywm7frh VIDEO: Trump Gives Ocasio-Cortez MAJOR Reality Check http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16tumj-k6duyr-b61d11g9/ Ex-ICE Director DESTROYS Ocasio-Cortez, Leaves Her SPEECHLESS http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16tumj-k6duyu-b61d11g2/ CNN Accuses Trump, then falls on its face Here is the truth the media isn't willing to show... http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16tumj-k6duyx-b61d11g5/ Bone Chilling Discovery At Epstein Island Is Clinton is trouble with all this evidence? … http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16tumj-k6duz1-b61d11g5/ Home Depot Co-Founder has the Last Laugh, Liberals Cry This just further proves Democrats blame everyone but themselves... http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16tumj-k6duz4-b61d11g8/ Bombshell Video REFUTES Claim Trump Forced Kiss on Campaign Staffer http://trk.cp20.com/click/g6v6-16qzk0-k636u0-b61d11g9/ Westwing News: https://www.whitehouse.gov/westwingreads/ WhiteHouseNews: https://www.whitehouse.gov/1600daily/ Latest From AFA: http://tinyurl.com/j7lakqw Students For Life https://tinyurl.com/yd5nxmu6 Latest From OperationRescue: http://www.operationrescue.org/ Latest Product Alert: Beef, Meal Bars, Smoke Alarms, Toys http://www.emergencyemail.org/products/?fmt=text Latest Health Alert: Flour Contaminated with E.

That's what you have to do when you're faced with a challenge you are not equipped to deal with. Say you have a big inflatable pool that you have to get home, but all you have to transport it is a little, 4-door Audi? Do you give up? Abandon it? Not if you're the woman in today's story. AND you have a couple of kids to act as ballast. According police in Dixon, IL officers were alerted and later observed an Audi Q5 driving west on Illinois Route 2 with a "blue inflatable pool on the roof with two juveniles inside of the pool." Officers made contact with the driver, 49-year-old Jennifer A. Janus Yeager, who said she had her daughters ride inside of the empty pool to "hold it down on their drive home." Police learned Yeager drove into town to inflate the pool at a friends' house. Yeager was arrested and charged with two counts of Endangering the Health or Life of a Child and two counts of Reckless Conduct. Police said she was also cited for failure to secure a passenger of the age of 8 and under the age of 16. She was transported to the Dixon Police Department where she was processed and released after posting bond. It was not reported whether she finally got the pool home or not. -<>- You can blame it on Sir Mix-a-Lot if you want to, but plastic surgery is an obsession with many women who want bigger, better, lips, breasts and, in the case of this unfortunate victim, bottom. Apryl Brown says an acquaintance was offering silicone butt injections at her house, at a cheaper price than a doctor's office. However, the real cost would come later. "I was in pain, my bottom was hard, and I was itching," Brown said. It turned out to be a life-threatening staph infection. When doctors removed the silicone, they found it was bathroom caulk, the same stuff you can buy at Home Depot. And it wouldn't be the first time a woman regretted taking caulk in her bottom. Brown needed 27 surgeries, and she lost her hands and feet to the infection. At one point, she thought she was going to die. Apryl Brown has learned to walk and write using prosthetics. She says her goal is to educate others so they don't make the same mistake as she did. "All I would ask them to do is, when they have that first thought, make sure they have a second thought about it and do a little research," Brown said. "They won't be blind-sided, and they won't be saying 'oh my gosh I had no idea that a simple procedure like that can leave me with no hands, no feet and no bottom cheeks.'" *--- American Gored Trying to Get a Selfie ---* The desire to have a selfie as a souvenir from running with the bulls in Spain turned into a near-death experience an American lawyer says he'll never forget. A charging bull ran over and gored San Francisco resident Jaime Alvarez in the neck during the first run of this year's San Fermin festival in Pamplona. "The joy and the excitement of being in the bullring quickly turned into a scare, into real fear for my life," Alvarez, 46, said at a regional hospital where he was recovering from surgery. Doctors told Alvarez the bull's horn went deep into his neck and fractured part of a cheekbone. That it didn't hit the jugular vein or major arteries was described to the injured patient as "beyond miraculous." Alvarez said he climbed onto a fence for safety and only returned to the arena to shoot a short video when he thought that the danger had passed. He wanted "a 5-second video scene to say 'Here I am, I did it.'" That's when the stray bull came at him running fast. "The impact was unlike anything I've ever felt. It was like being hit by a car or a truck," Alvarez said. The selfie, on the other hand, turned out fantastic. *--- One Way Or Another, Somebody's Getting Stabbed ---* After her boyfriend said he was too tired to make love, a Florida Woman allegedly grabbed a kitchen knife and slashed him multiple times on the arm and shoulder, according to a criminal complaint. A sheriff's deputy reported that Jennifer Lee Chapman, 37, and the 36-year-old victim "got into a verbal argument over defendant wanting to make love and the victim did not because he was too tired." After Chapman grabbed a knife and cut her arm, the couple began grappling on the kitchen floor. When they briefly separated, Chapman allegedly "cut victim's left arm and shoulder area multiple times." She also head-butted and punched her boyfriend in the face, police report. Chapman was arrested in connection with the incident. She was charged with aggravated battery. Chapman is also facing a probation violation charge in connection with her guilty plea last year for illegally possessing marijuana, crystal meth, and the antidepressant Xanax. *--- We Always Knew Chicago Was Full of Rats ---* U.S. Customs and Border Protection said it confiscated 32 pounds of rat meat from a passenger arriving at Chicago O'Hare International Airport from the Ivory Coast. Steve Bansbach, a spokesman for Chicago's CPB office, said the passenger told officials he was carrying the prohibited food. "He declared it," Bansbach reported. "He claimed he had meat during inspection. We found that, yes, he had African rat meat -- 32 pounds of it." The meat was confiscated and destroyed. Bansbach said the main concern with imported meats is that it may introduce African swine fever into the United States. The passenger was not fined. *--- Is Your Wife Always on Your Back? ---* Vytatutas Kirkliauskas, with his wife Neringa, traversed a muddy course and won the annual wife-carrying championships in Finland on Saturday. It was the second consecutive victory for the Lithuanian couple in the international event, held for the 31st time in Sonkajarvi, Finland. They ran an 830-foot obstacle course, walking in mud and crossing waist-high water and wooden barriers in one minute and 6.72 seconds. First prize is the wife's weight in beer. Contestants from a dozen countries took part in the event, inspired by a Finnish folk legend involving the kidnapping of women by pillagers. National competitions occur in the United States, Australia, Poland and England, with China organizing an event in 2020. In 2018, a Maine couple, Jesse Wall and Christine Arsenault, won 12 cases of beer at the North American Wife Carrying Championship in Newry, Maine. ========================================================= >-->From SurvivalUpdate: ____ ___|=--=/ \=--=| :(___.--. .--.___): { __ ' ) ( ` __ )= ""----'Ahas '----"" ====' >The Wonders of Duct Tape: When you walk for a long distance, it's common to get blisters on your feet.

One afternoon, I was taking apart a piling hammer that had some very large bolts holding it together. One of the nuts had corroded on to the bolt; to free it I started heating the nut with an oxy-acetylene torch. As I was doing this, one of the dimmest apprentices I have ever known came along. He asked me what I was doing. I patiently explained that if I heated the nut it would grow larger and release its grip on the bolt so I could then remove it. "So things get larger when they get hot, do they?" he asked. Suddenly, an idea flashed into my mind. "Yes," I said, "that's why days are longer in summer and shorter in winter." There was a long pause, then his face cleared. "You know, I always wondered about that," he said. -<>- ________________ _/_______________/| /___________/___//|| |=== |----| || | | ô| || |___________| ô| || | ||/.´---.|| | || |-||/_____\||-. | |´ |_||=L==H==||_|__|/ Jan Foerster Recently, I bought a cartridge for my printer. It came in a box mounted on a card and wrapped in plastic. When I took it apart, I found that the printer cartridge itself was actually quite small, but they made the packaging unnecessarily large to make it harder to steal and to make the customer feel better about the high price. I pointed this out to my wife and mentioned how my weight gain over the years of our marriage should have the same effect: It made me seem more valuable and also made me harder for other women to steal. She's still laughing. -<>- ----- ----- 1 | H | |He | |---+---- --------------------+---| 2 |Li |Be | | B | C | N | O | F |Ne | |---+---| |---+---+---+---+---+---| 3 |Na |Mg |3B 4B 5B 6B 7B | 8B |1B 2B |Al |Si | P | S |Cl |Ar | |---+---+---------------------------------------+---+---+---+---+---+---| 4 | K |Ca |Sc |Ti | V |Cr |Mn |Fe |Co |Ni |Cu |Zn |Ga |Ge |As |Se |Br |Kr | |---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---| 5 |Rb |Sr | Y |Zr |Nb |Mo |Tc |Ru |Rh |Pd |Ag |Cd |In |Sn |Sb |Te | I |Xe | |---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---| 6 |Cs |Ba |LAN|Hf |Ta | W |Re |Os |Ir |Pt |Au |Hg |Tl |Pb |Bi |Po |At |Rn | |---+---+---+------------------------------------------------------------ 7 |Fr |Ra |ACT| ------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Lanthanide |La |Ce |Pr |Nd |Pm |Sm |Eu |Gd |Tb |Dy |Ho |Er |Tm |Yb |Lu | |---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---| Actinide |Ac |Th |Pa | U |Np |Pu |Am |Cm |Bk |Cf |Es |Fm |Md |No |Lw | ------------------------------------------------------------- >Physics 101 Ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter: Eskimo Pi 2000 pounds of Chinese soup: Won ton 1 millionth of a mouthwash: 1 microscope Time it takes to sail 220 yards at 1 nautical mile per hour: 1 Knot-furlong 365.25 days of drinking low-calorie beer because it's less filling: 1 lite year 16.5 feet in the Twilight Zone: 1 Rod Serling Half of a large intestine: 1 semicolon 1000 aches: 1 megahurtz Basic unit of laryngitis: 1 hoarsepower 2000 mockingbirds: two kilomockingbirds 10 cards: 1 decacards 1 kilogram of falling figs: 1 Fig Newton 1000 grams of wet socks: 1 literhosen 1 trillion pins: 1 terrapin 10 rations: 1 decoration 8 nickels: 2 paradigms 2.4 statute miles of intravenous surgical tubing at Yale University Hospital: 1 I.V.

Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to, he politely asked, "What are you up to there, Tim?" "My goldfish died," replied Tim tearfully, without looking up, "and I've just buried him." The neighbor said, "That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn't it Tim?" Tim patted down the last heap of earth, and then replied, "That's because he's still inside your stupid cat." -<>- A teacher asked one of her pupils, "What's the nation's capital?"

Because I'm a man, when I lock my keys in the car I will fiddle with a wire clothes hanger and ignore your suggestions that we call a road service until long after hypothermia has set in. Because I'm a man, when the car isn't running very well, I will pop the hood and stare at the engine as if I know what I'm looking at. If another man shows up, one of us will say to the other, "I used to be able to fix these things, but now with all these computers and everything, I wouldn't know where to start." Because I'm a man, when I catch a cold I need someone to bring me soup and take care of me while I lie in bed and moan. You never get as sick as I do, so for you this isn't an issue. Because I'm a man, I can be relied upon to purchase basic groceries at the store, like milk or bread. I cannot be expected to find exotic items like "Cumin" or "Tofu" For all I know these are the same thing. And never, under any circumstances, expect me to pick up anything for which "feminine hygiene product" is a euphemism. Because I'm a man, when one of our appliances stops working I will insist on taking it apart, despite evidence that this will just cost me twice as much once the repair person gets here and has to put it back together. Because I'm a man, I must hold the television remote control in my hand while I watch TV. If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a whole show looking for it (though one time I was able to survive by holding a calculator). Because I'm a man, I don't think we're all that lost, and no, I don't think we should stop and ask someone. Why would you listen to a complete Stranger - I mean, how could he know where we're going? Because I'm a man, there is no need to ask me what I'm thinking about. The answer is always either making love, racing or sports, though I have to make up something else when you ask, so don't. Because I'm a man, I do not want to visit your mother, or have your mother come visit us, or talk to her when she calls, or think about her any more than I have to. Whatever you got her for Mother's Day is okay, I don't need to see it. And don't forget to pick up something for my Mom too!! Because I'm a man, you don't have to ask me if I liked the movie. Chances are, if you're crying at the end of it, I didn't. Because I'm a man, I think what you're wearing is fine. I thought what you were wearing five minutes ago was fine, too. Either pair of shoes is fine. With the belt or without it looks fine. Your hair is fine. You look fine. Can we just go now? Because I'm a man, and this is, after all, the year 2019, I will share equally in the housework. You just do the laundry, the cooking, sweeping, dusting, the gardening, the cleaning, and the dishes. I'll do all the rest. -<>- _ \`*-. ) _`-. . : `. . : _ ' \ ; *` _. `*-._ `-.-' `-. ; ` `. :. . \ . \ . : .-' .

Law of Cat Obstruction A cat must lie on the floor in such a position to obstruct the maximum amount of human foot traffic. Law of Cat Acceleration A cat will accelerate at a constant rate, until he gets good and ready to stop. Law of Dinner Table Attendance Cats must attend all meals when anything good is served. Law of Rug Configuration No rug may remain in its naturally flat state for very long. Law of Obedience Resistance A cat's resistance varies in proportion to a human's desire for her to do something. Law of Cat Motion A cat will move in a straight line, unless there is a really good reason to change direction. Law of Cat Magnetism All blue blazers and black sweaters attract cat hair in direct proportion to the darkness of the fabric. Law of Cat Thermodynamics Heat flows from a warmer to a cooler body, except in the case of a cat, in which case all heat flows to the cat. Law of Cat Stretching A cat will stretch to a distance proportional to the length of the nap just taken. Law of Cat Sleeping All cats must sleep with people whenever possible, in a position as uncomfortable for the people involved, and as comfortable as possible for the cat. -<>- ,(()). ,;;;;. __ ________ _____ ___ ((_ _));'_`'_( _| __ __ __ _| _| _| __ __ () \ /)\ ) / (_|__ _|-_| _(_|(_|(_|__ _|-- ((\ O(() \ O / _____(_|(_|_____________(_|_ SSt >SCREAM OF THE CROP FRACTURED SONG LYRICS Column From Milton S. Flindall: "Beatles' Across the Universe: Jai guru deva. Misheard them as: John grew a K-Mart. " I thought that line was "tigeroo david" - couldn't figure out who david was. *** From David E. Tanner: My Grandfather used to tell of the little girl who named her stuffed teddy bear "Gladly." When asked why, she said that it was from Sunday School... when they sang the hymn "Gladly my cross-eyed bear." (BTW, this is the title of one of the prolific author Ed McBain's books.) He also told about the Mexican visiting Yankee Stadium for a ball game. He was very flattered when everyone kindly stood up and asked: "Jose' can you see?" just before the game started. *** From Wachadun: The Beatle's "Paperback Writer" sounds like "Pay For That Chrysler!!!" *** From mbdog7cat4: When my daughter was preschool age, she loved the Disney movie "The Little Mermaid." In the song "Part of Your World," there is a line that goes "bright young women, sick of swimmin'." I cracked up when I heard her singing. "Pregnant women, sick of swimmin', ready to fly." She has always loved to sing. Even at 18 months, she was singing, "Frosty the Snowman" as "with a corncob pipe, and a button nose, and 2 eyes made out of COLD." (instead of COAL) *** From S.R.P.: My grandmother told me about a little boy who was singing the Kenny Roger's song "Lucille." Instead of singing the lyrics "...four hungry children and crops in the field," he was singing "....four HUNDRED children PROPPED in the field." ========================================================= >-->FUN Places To Net Visit Montreal Mosaicultures Show 2! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/montrealshow2.html SubTropolis: Underground Park http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/subtropolisup.html Big Boy Toys!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/bigboytoys.html Moses Bridge!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/mosesbridge.html Brilliant Logos!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/logos.html Fighter Aircraft!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/fighteraircraft.html Canyon Skywalk!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/skywalk.html Statue Of Liberty!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/statueofliberty.html Road Train Trucks!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/roadtrain.html Willis (Sears) Tower!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/willist.html Cat Spot Tips! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/catspots.html Cat Owner Tips! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/catowners.html Wieliczka Salt Mine!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/saltmine.html Amazing Trivia Facts!- http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/triviafacts.html SUMMER INDEX!- http://www.shangralas.com/ -<>- Reacting To INSANE COMMERCIALS VS.

Unfortunately, then Facebook shows you photos of your friends having a much better time during their disasters." -Conan O'Brien "A new study found that most people cant go 10 minutes without lying. But since the study took 20 minutes nobody knows what to believe." -Jimmy Fallon "A company in New York City has opened what some are calling a nonalcoholic cocktail bar that creates drinks using lemons and herbal ingredients instead of alcohol. And this is cool - they're using empty chairs instead of customers." -Seth Meyers "On Monday in Vermont, a barrel of maple syrup fell off a truck and spilled all over the highway. Luckily, it broad-sided a French toast truck." -Conan O'Brien "The Baltimore airport just got a gym where you can work out while you wait for a flight.
