'Dust thou art and dust thou shalt return' is what I always
think of with Spring Cleaning Time. Also Fall Cleaning time.
The more people and animals in the place, the more dust to
clean. It is fun.
Amazing how your perspective on dirt changes too as you get older.
When I was a kid, dirt was the most important thing to my mom. We
couldn't get the house or the clothes or the yard or the garage or
the car clean enough to suit her. Least not for very long any way!
Then when I left home to make my own home with my husband, she had
a whole different look at dirt. Dirt was more tolerable to her. She
only cleaned when it absolutely needed it and she felt like it.
Forget the weekly clean schedule. She made up her own schedule for
cleaning. Then when she got much older, the dirt was mostly invisible
to her. She only saw the dirt right before it was cleaned by her
once a month cleaning lady. Any other time, it just wasn't there.

Now they think dust from our flame-retardant carpet, furniture, bedding,
clothes etc., can be making us and our pets sick. With all the
newfangled stuff these days, we haven't had the time to do long
evaluations on accumulated effects on humans and pets. Usually if we
are OK with it right away, we don't worry about levels of it later.

So, it is good to get busy and get that dreaded Spring Cleaning done!
Though I've just started, I'll eventually get it done - even it takes
me all summer! By golly! TeeHee
Oh, Yeah. I almost forgot! I've heard that there are even whole

>-->From The FUnnyBone: Caring For The Blind
Paddy was working in a home for the blind when one day, he decided he
was gonna go to the country side and visit a lady friend of his.
Just as luck would have it, three of the blind people he looked after
begged him to take them with for the ride, just to get out to the
country and breath the crisp, fresh air. All attempts to dissuade
them were fruitless when Paddy came up with a plan to keep them busy
while he was inside with the lady friend.
_...._
Anyway, so off they went and after a long .' \ _'.
drive finally arrived at the cottage where /##\__/##\_\
upon they were greeted by Paddy's friend. |\##/ \##/ |
Before going inside he gave his three |/ \__/ \ _|
blind friends a soccer ball with a bell \ _/##\__/#/
inside so that they could play a bit of jgs '.\##/__.'
kick the ball while he was busy. Paddy, `""""`
sure that this would keep them out of any
trouble left them and went inside.
About two hours later Paddy decided to check on his friends and
wondered outside. To his absolute horror there were his three blind
friends being loaded into the back of a police van, handcuffs and
all. Paddy rushed to his car and followed the van to the Police
station. Absolutely dumbfounded as to what his blind friends could
have done that would warrant them being arrested, he questioned the
arresting officer.
"Well sir, its and open and shut case. Those three gentleman kicked
an ice cream man to death!"
=====================================================================
+------------------- Bizarre Criminals -------------------+
In September 1992, robbers in Las Vegas held up a van
thought to contain gambling chips, only to find that it
was carrying potato chips instead.
In 1998, a guard was caught smuggling a wad of money in
his underpants out of a bank in Atlanta when a tiny dye
capsule exploded, blowing a hold in his trousers.
In 1998, a would be Texas grocery store robber tried to
disguise his face with a balaclava, however, he failed to
remove a laminated badge which bore his name, place of
employment and position from his breast pocket.
Police had no difficulty catching a man who stole a barge
on the River Thames in 1972. There was a dock strike on
that day and his was the only craft moving.
The defense attorney for Tyrone Jerrols of Houston, Texas,
who was facing charges of murder, filed a motion to prevent
the use of Jerrol's nickname, claiming it would prejudice
the jury. Jerrol's nickname is "Hitman."

>NOAH
In the year 2008, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in the
United States, and said: "Once again, the earth has become wicked and
over-populated, and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another
Ark and save two of every living thing along with a few good humans."
He gave Noah the blueprints saying: "You have 6 months to build the Ark
before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights."
Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard
- but no Ark. "Noah!" He roared,
"I'm about to start the rain, where is the Ark?"
"Forgive me, Lord" begged Noah, "but things have changed. I needed a
building permit & I've been arguing with the inspector about the need
for a sprinkler system on the ark. My neighbors claim that I've violated
the neighborhood zoning laws by building the Ark in my yard and
exceeding the height limitations. We had to go to the Development
Appeals Board for a decision.
Then the Department of Transportation demanded a bond be posted for the
future costs of moving power lines and other overhead obstructions, to
clear the passage for the Ark 's move to the sea. I told them that the
sea would be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it.
Getting the wood was another problem. There's a ban on cutting local
trees in order to save the spotted owl. I tried to convince the
environmentalists that I needed the wood to save the owls - but no go!
When I started gathering the animals, an animal rights group sued me.
They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. They
argued the accommodation was too restrictive, and it was cruel and
inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space.
Then the EPA ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd conducted
an environmental impact study on your proposed flood.
I'm still trying to resolve a complaint with the Human Rights Commission
on how many minorities I'm supposed to hire for my building crew.
Immigration and Naturalization is checking the green-card status of most
of the people who want to work.
The trades unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire
only Union workers with Ark-building experience.
To make matters worse, the IRS seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying
to leave the country illegally with endangered species.
"So, forgive me, Lord, but it would take at least 10 years for me to
finish this Ark."
Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow
stretched across the sky. Noah looked up in wonder and asked, "You mean
you're not going to destroy the world?"
"No," said the Lord: "the government beat me to it."

Eccentric or Undiagnosed?
All of us have moments when our personalities get us in hot water. We
act impulsively, we’re too blunt, we can’t concentrate, or we talk too
much. Most of us can shrug off such moments as part of a bad day, or we
learn how to handle those situations better for the future. But for some
of us, embarrassing or awkward personality traits are part of our
everyday lives. However, such traits could actually be part of a
treatable syndrome…

Poll: Norwegians drive aggressively
A Norwegian insurance company said a poll suggests the
country's drivers have little use for etiquette behind the
wheel. Insurance company TrygVesta said its survey found
nearly 60 percent of respondents in the western region of
the country refuse to allow vehicles to pull in front of
them, and that number becomes 39 percent nationwide,
Aftenposten reported. The survey also found 6 percent of
respondents refuse to stop at cross-walks -- even if there
are pedestrians crossing the road -- and one-fifth of those
polled said they often illegally park in handicapped
parking spaces.
City hires sheep to mow lawns
Officials in Turin, Italy, said they have found a way to
save money on landscaping at city parks -- theyv'e recruited
two herds of sheep to eat the grass. The first of the two
herds began feasting on the grass Thursday at Meisino Park
and the second is scheduled to begin grazing Monday at
Sangone Park, ANSA reported. City officials said the sheep,
which were also employed to trim park lawns last year, are
expected to save the city nearly $50,000 in lawn-mowing
fees. ''I came here last year as well and it worked out
really well. The city saved money and kept the park clean,
while I saved money by not having to rent fields to graze
my sheep,'' shepherd Federico Tombolato, who owns one of
the herds, told ANSA. The sheep are scheduled to graze in
city parks for two months. In 2007, the city began using
sheep to trim city park lawns and attempted to use cattle
at one park. However, the city concluded that using cattle
was less practical due to the amount of waste they produce,
ANSA said.

High school coach suspended for chewing
A Massachusetts high school football coach has been given
a two-day suspension for chewing tobacco on the job. Doug
Chernovetz, coach of the Marblehead (Mass.) High School
Magicians, admitted the infraction, the Boston Herald
reported. The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic
Association bans tobacco use by coaches and players.
"We think it's a valuable teaching lesson for all our kids
that if you make a mistake, own up to it, pay your
punishment and you'll get a second chance," said the
Marblehead Athletic Director, Michael Plansky. A parent
complained about the tobacco chewing to both the school
and the MIAA. The suspension was decided on in December
but didn't become public until it was reported this week
in The Salem (Mass.) News. Chernovetz teaches at a
Marblehead Middle School in addition to his coaching duties.

/_/ /_/
FORT WORTH, Texas - A turtle that was missing for at least
six months from a Fort Worth, Texas, museum appeared this
week on a construction site, a curator at the museum said.
The 15-pound, 5-year-old snapping turtle, Bob, was found
in good health, despite his more slender physique, the
Fort Worth (Texas) Star-Telegram reported. Bob was noticed
to be missing Sept. 15, when the Fort Worth Museum of
Science and History evacuated a building for renovations,
said Leishawn Spotted Bear, assistant museum curator of
science. Bob's old home, a pond outside the museum, has
been torn down and the location for the new building has
been completely unearthed two times, said Steve Anderson,
director of public affairs for the museum. "He has somehow
managed to survive under the earth. We don't know why he
emerged today, perhaps because of the recent rain,"
Anderson told the newspaper. The remodeled museum is set
to open in fall 2009.
-- Tycoon dressed as gladiator hit with DUI ---------
LONDON - A drunken British clothing tycoon faces possible

fleeing the scene, police said. William Bianchi, 38, wasn't
hard to find. He was dressed as a Roman gladiator with
black body paint and singed hair from his burning car,
police said. A police officer said he looked like Wyle E.
Coyote of the Road Runner cartoons -- who often had plans
to do in the Road Runner blow up in his face. Bianchi had
been attending his daughter's fancy dress party. Police
found him at a London hospital, chatting with a friend
dressed as Superman. He was found guilty of drunken driving
and several other charges and will be sentenced April 16.

-- Wanted: Drinking buddy, $14 an hour -----------
WINSOR, England - An 88-year-old man is offering $14 an
hour for an unusual twice-a-week job -- drinking buddy at
a Winsor, England, pub. Jack Hammond, 88, said he recently
moved to Forest Edge Care Home in the town of Cadnam to be
closer to his family, but the relocation put several miles
between him and his former drinking buddy, The Times of
London reported Thursday. "It was a bit upsetting when I
had to leave as I left all my friends back home," he said.
Hammond's son, Mike, said social services gave him the idea
to offer a paid position after it was unable to find him
a suitable companion for trips to the Compass Inn. The
elderly man said he seeking someone to accompany him to
the bar at least twice a week. He said he is looking for
someone who is "not too bombastic and enjoys a nice pint."
Mike Hammond said four men have applied for the position
thus far. He said being paid to drink beer and chat with
his father is "a very attractive proposition." "It's got
to be the best job in the world," he said.

>-->From The Jokester:
A motorist had a flat tire in front of an insane asylum. He took the
wheel off, but when he stood up he tipped over the hubcap containing
the bolts, spilling them all down a sewer drain.
A patient, looking through the fence, suggested that the man take one
bolt from the remaining three wheels to hold the fourth wheel in place
until he could get to a service station.
The motorist thanked his profusely and said, "I don't know why you are
in that place."
The patient said, "I'm here for being crazy, not for being stupid."

A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlor and pulled

BATHTUB TEST
It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time. This
little test should get you started.
During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director which
is the criteria that defines a patient to be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub. We offer a teaspoon, a
teacup and a bucket to the patient, and ask the patient to empty the
bathtub."
OK, here's your test: (Those with an abnormal tendency will scroll to
the bottom to get the answer before taking the test.)
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the
bucket as it is larger than the spoon."
"No," answered the Director. "A normal person would pull the plug."
So how did you do?

The Frog
An older lady was somewhat lonely and decided she needed a pet to keep
her company. So off to the pet shop she went. She searched and searched.
Nothing seemed to catch her interest, except this ugly frog. As she
walked by the jar he was in, she looked and he winked at her.
He whispered , "IM LONELY TOO, BUY ME AND YOU WONT BE SORRY."
The old lady figured--WHAT THE HECK, she hadn't found anything else. She
bought the frog and put him in the car.
Driving down the road the frog whispered to her "KISS ME AND YOU WONT BE
SORRY."
So the old lady figured WHAT THE HECK, and kissed the frog.
IMMEDIATELY the frog turned into an absolutely gorgeous sexy young
handsome prince.
THE PRINCE THEN KISSED THE OLD LADY BACK..........
AND GUESS WHAT THE OLD LADY TURNED INTO?
COME ON GUESS?

My little niece, Kelly, went with a neighbor girl to church
for First Communion practice. The pastor has the children
cup their hands, and when he gives them the "Host," in this
case, a piece of bread, he says, "God be with you."
Apparently this made quite an impression on my niece. She
came home and told her mother to cup her hands and bend
down. Kelly took a piece of bread from her sandwich, placed
it in her mother's hands, and whispered, in her most angelic
voice, "God will get you."

"That was nice of you to set up a blind date for your ex-
boyfriend."
"I know, but I don't hold any grudges."
"I'm surprised he trusted you enough to agree to go out
with her."
"Well, I had to swear to him she's Jennifer Lopez's double."
"Wow! Is that true?"
"I wouldn't lie. She's twice her weight and twice her age."
When Little Johnny's family moved into their new house, a
visiting relative asked him how he liked the new place.
"It's terrific," he said. "I have my own room, Billy has his
own room, and Jenny has her own room. But poor Mom is still
in with Dad."

A husband asks his wife, "If I should die first would you
marry again?"
"I would be heart-broken, of course," was her reply, "but
I think eventually I would remarry."
"But you wouldn't bring him here to our house?"
"Why not? I've worked and slaved to make this house a home.
There is no reason to abandon it."
"But you wouldn't sleep in our bed?"
"Well, I wouldn't run out and buy a new bed right away."
"Surely, you wouldn't let him use my golf clubs?"
"Of course not! He's left-handed!"

My niece, pregnant with her second child, was certain she
wanted an epidural for pain management during childbirth.
Her doctor asked her at which stage of labor she wanted
the epidural administered.
Her response: "Just meet me in the parking lot!"

A piece of string walks into a bar, and the bartender says to
him, "Hey buddy! We don't serve pieces of string here! Can't
you read the sign?" And he kicks the piece of string out of
the bar.
So the string is outside the bar, and decides to create a
disguise for himself to get inside. He ties his head in a

knot, and brushes out the end on top and walks confidently
back into the bar and sits down.
The bartender walks up to him handing him a drink, and
looking suspiciously at him, says "Hey... weren't you that
piece of string I kicked out of here just a little while
ago?"
The piece of string replies, "No, I'm afraid knot!"

: K I L R O Y S A Y S H I ! :
:................................................:
WINNER
1. When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his intended victim
during a hold-up in Long Beach, California, would-be robber James Elliot
did something that can only inspire wonder. He peered down the barrel
and tried the trigger again. This time it worked.....
HONORABLE MENTIONS
2. The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat cutting
machine and, after a little hopping around, submitted a claim to his
insurance company. The company expecting negligence, sent out one of its
men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine and lost a finger.
The chef's claim was approved.
3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car
during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his Vehicle to find a woman
had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her.
4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver
found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting
from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his
incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered everyone
waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the
mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable
and prone to bizarre fantasies. The deception wasn't discovered for 3
days.
5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering from serious head
wounds received from an oncoming train. When asked how he received the
injuries, the lad told police that he was simply trying to see how close
he could get his head to a moving train before he was hit.
6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the
counter, and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer,
the man pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which
the clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and
fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he
got from the drawer was $15. (If someone points a gun at you and gives
you money, is a crime committed?)
7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that
he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some
booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his
head at the window. The cinder block bounced back and hit the would-be
thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The liquor store window was
made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape.
8. As a female shopper exited a New York convenience store, a man
grabbed her purse and ran. She called 911 immediately, and the woman was
able to give them a detailed description of the snatcher. Within
minutes, the police apprehended the snatcher. They put him in the car
and drove back to the store. The thief was then taken out of the car and
told to stand there for a positive ID. To which he replied, "Yes,
officer, that's her. That is the lady I stole the purse from."
9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a
Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan, at 5 a.m., flashed a gun, and
demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't
open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion
rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast. The man,
frustrated and furious, walked away.
CONSOLATION PRIZE
10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on
a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained for. Police arrived
at the scene to find a very sick man curled up and vomiting, on the
ground next to the vehicle. A police spokesman said that the man
admitted trying to steal gasoline. He had plugged his siphon hose into
what he thought was the gas tank, and began sucking to create a vacuum
before transferring it to his car. Only problem was, he'd put the hose
into the motor home's sewage tank by mistake. The owner of the vehicle
declined to press charges, saying that it was the best laugh he'd ever
had.
