LouiseAu. It gives us a look at history in the making back
in the 1950s highlighting some of the most important ones.
For many of us, this brings back fond memories. Be sure to
watch the videos here. They give you an inside look at the
50's. The one a rare song from Elvis and the other a history
presentation by youngsters bringing us a wonderful view of
the times.

After a lady's car had leaked motor oil on her cement driveway, she
bought a large bag of cat litter to soak it up. It worked so well,
that she went back to the store to get another bag to finish the
job.
The clerk remembered her. Looking thoughtfully at her purchase, he
said, "Lady, if that were my cat, I'd put him outside!"

>Grant Support
I work in a school department that is supported by grants.
On his first day, my new boss delivered some bad news. He said,
"Unfortunately your last boss failed to apply for the grant that
supports your work. You will be terminated at the end of this
month. Did you know that?"
Admittedly, I was unprepared for this, but I was not shocked.
Two weeks before the end of my tenure, the new boss came to me
again. He said, "Before you go, please submit the lesson plans
you would have used for the next three months."
I said, "Oh, I'm sorry, those lesson plans were covered in the
grant. Didn't you know that?"

>Medical Advice
One day, after a man had his annual physical, the doctor came out
and said, "You had a great checkup. Is there anything that you'd
like to talk about or ask me?"
"Well," he said, "I was thinking about getting a vasectomy."
"That's a pretty big decision. Have you talked it over with your
family?"
"Yeah and they're in favor 15 to 2."
-<>-
>Roman Cab
Anyone who's ever ridden in a cab in Rome, Italy, knows
they're some of the world's most brazen drivers. Oddly
enough though, their current accident rate isn't all that
bad.
One day I asked one of the drivers the reason for that.
"Easy," he said. "All the bad drivers are dead."

>Nutrition
After participating in a nutritional-health class, my 16-year-
old daughter encouraged her sisters to try whole-grain breads
and whole-wheat pasta, and complained if we were having anything
that looked too processed.
At dinnertime one evening, she entered the kitchen, spied the
food on the plates and boldly asked: "Are those whole-wheat
potatoes?"
-<>-
>Got a Gripe?
A mayor of a small town passed out pens imprinted with the message,
"Got a gripe? Call the mayor."
One morning the phone rang and his secretary answered it.
"Who was that?" the mayor asked.
"A citizen with a gripe," came the reply. "He said that the pen you
gave him doesn't work."

One year, Little Johnny's family was having the extended family 4th
of July cookout at their home. One of the special treats that year
was the lighting of the fireworks (Roman candles, bottle rockets,
missile batteries, etc.) they had bought out of state (they're
illegal in their state, of course!).
Just before they were to arrive, a cousin calls, saying their
neighbor's plans had just fallen through, and could they bring them
along to the picnic - they even had extra food to bring. "Sure, the
more the merrier!"
Upon arrival and meeting their cousin's neighbor, it is discovered
that he's a police officer. The father turns as innocently as he can
to Little Johnny, and whispers to him to grab the paper bag of
fireworks sitting in the kitchen and hide them somewhere quickly.
Johnny disappears, and the father changes the topic to food for the
day. This family had brought some chicken to grill, so the father
tells them the gas grill is all set to use out back - just turn on
the gas and push the ignition button with the lid still closed.
They head out to the back as Johnny comes back in through the front
door. The father hurries to him and says "Whew, that was close!
That man's a police officer, and he almost saw the fireworks. Did
you hide them real well?"
"Oh, yeah, nobody will ever think to look in the grill!"
----------
A guy traveling through the prairies of the USA stopped at a small
town and went to a bar. He stood at the end of the bar, ordered a
drink, and lit up a cigar.
As he sipped his drink, he stood there quietly blowing smoke rings.
After he blew nine or ten smoke rings into the air, an angry
American Indian stomped up to him and said, "One more remark like
that and I'll smash your face in!"
-------
A parts manager for a small electronics shop, had occasion to order
part No. 669 from the factory.
But when he received it he noticed that someone had sent part No.
699 instead.
Furious at the factory's incompetence, he promptly sent the part
back along with a letter giving them a piece of his mind.
Less than a week later, he received the same part back with a
letter containing just four words: "TURN THE BOX OVER."

Mensa is an organization whose members have an IQ of 140 or higher.
A few years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco,
and several members lunched at a local café. While dining, they
discovered that their saltshaker contained pepper and their
pepper shaker was full of salt. How could they swap the contents of
the bottles without spilling, and using only the implements at hand?
Clearly this was a job for Mensa! The group debated and presented
ideas, and finally came up with a brilliant solution involving a
napkin, a straw, and an empty saucer. They called the waitress over
to dazzle her with their solution.
"Ma'am," they said, "we couldn't help but notice that the pepper
shaker contains salt and the saltshaker—"
"Oh," the waitress interrupted. "Sorry about that." She unscrewed
the caps of both bottles and switched them.
-------
Once upon a time, in a land far away, a beautiful, independent,
self-assured princess happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating
ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a beautiful
meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess's lap and said:
"Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome prince, until an evil witch
cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn
back into the young man that I am. Then, my dear, we can marry and
live in yon castle with my mother, where you can bear my children
and serve me for the rest of your life, and feel grateful and happy
doing so."
That night, as the princess dined on sauteed frog legs in a white
wine sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought: "I don't think so."
--------
A stamp was issued in 2003 honoring the one hundredth anniversary of
the first flight by the Wright Brothers.
The first man in powered flight was from Ohio.
The first man ever to orbit Earth was from Ohio.
And the first man on the moon was from Ohio.
It sounds to me that a lot of people are trying to get out of Ohio.
-------
A well-dressed gentleman entered an upscale restaurant
in the East End of Manhattan, and took a seat at the
bar. The bartender came over and asked "What can I get you
to drink, sir?"
The gentleman responded, "Nothing, thank you. I tried
alcohol once, didn't like it, and never tried it again."
The bartender was a bit perplexed, but being a friendly
sort, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes and offered the
gentleman one.
The gentleman refused, saying, "I tried smoking once,
didn't like it, and never did it again. The point is, I
wouldn't be in here at all, except that I'm waiting for
my son."
The bartender retorted, "Your only child, I presume?"
--------
There was a middle-aged couple who had two stunningly
beautiful teen-aged daughters. They decided to try one
last time for the son they always wanted.
After months of trying, the wife became pregnant and
sure enough, nine months later delivered a healthy baby boy.
The joyful father rushed to the nursery to see his new son.
He took one look and was horrified to see the ugliest child
he had ever seen. He went to his wife and said that there
was no way that he could be the father of that child.
"Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered." Then he gave
her a stern look and asked, "Have you been fooling around on me?"
The wife just smiled sweetly and said, "Not this time."
-------
Artist Pablo Picasso surprised a burglar at work in his new
chateau. The intruder got away, but Picasso told the police he
could do a rough sketch of what he looked like.
On the basis of his drawing, the police arrested a mother superior,
the minister of finance, a washing machine, and the Eiffel tower.

>THE OUTHOUSE
The service station trade was slow
The owner sat around,
With sharpened knife and cedar stick
Piled shavings on the ground.
No modern facilities had they,
The log across the rill
Led to a shack, marked His and Hers
That sat against the hill.
"Where is the ladies restroom, sir?"
The owner leaning back,
Said not a word but whittled on,
And nodded toward the shack.
With quickened step she entered there
But only stayed a minute,
Until she screamed, just like a snake
Or spider might be in it.
With startled look and beet-red face
She bounded through the door,
And headed quickly for the car
Just like three gals before.
She missed the foot log - jumped the stream
The owner gave a shout,
As her silk stockings, down at her knees
Caught on a sassafras sprout.
She tripped and fell - got up, and then
In obvious disgust,
Ran to the car, stepped on the gas,
And faded in the dust.
Of course we all desired to know
What made the gals all do
The things they did, and then we found
The whittling owner knew.
A speaking system he'd devised,
To make the thing complete,
He tied a speaker on the wall
Beneath the toilet seat.
He'd wait until the gals got set
And then the devilish tyke
Would stop his whittling long enough,
To speak into the mike.
And as she sat, a voice below
Struck terror, fright and fear,
"Will you please use the other hole,
We're painting under here!"

...HaHaHa! Thanks LouiseAu!

>Six Boys And Thirteen Hands
Each year I am hired to go to Washington, DC, with the eighth grade
class from Clinton , WI where I grew up, to videotape their trip. I
greatly enjoy visiting our nation's capitol, and each year I take
some special memories back with me. This fall's trip was especially
memorable.
On the last night of our trip, we stopped at the Iwo Jima memorial.
This memorial is the largest bronze statue in the world and depicts
one of the most famous photographs in history -- that of the six
brave soldiers raising the American Flag at the top of a rocky hill
on the island of Iwo Jima, Japan, during WW II.
Over one hundred students and chaperones piled off the buses and
headed towards the memorial. I noticed a solitary figure at the base
of the statue, and as I got closer he asked, 'Where are you guys
from?'
I told him that we were from Wisconsin. 'Hey, I'm a cheese head, too!
Come gather around, Cheese heads, and I will tell you a story.'
(It was James Bradley who just happened to be in Washington, DC, to
speak at the memorial the following day. He was there that night to
say good night to his dad, who had passed away. He was just about to
leave when he saw the buses pull up. I videotaped him as he spoke to
us, and received his permission to share what he said from my
videotape. It is one thing to tour the incredible monuments filled
with history in Washington, DC, but it is quite another to get the
kind of insight we received that night.)
When all had gathered around, he reverently began to speak. (Here
are his words that night.)
'My name is James Bradley and I'm from Antigo, Wisconsin. My dad is
on that statue, and I just wrote a book called 'Flags of Our Fathers'
which is #5 on the New York Times Best Seller list right now. It is
the story of the six boys you see behind me.
'Six boys raised the flag. The first guy putting the pole in the
ground is Harlon Block. Harlon was an all-state football player. He
enlisted in the Marine Corps with all the senior members of his
football team. They were off to play another type of game. A game
called 'War.' But it didn't turn out to be a game. Harlon, at the
age of 21, died with his intestines in his hands. I don't say that
to gross you out, I say that because there are people who stand in
front of this statue and talk about the glory of war. You guys need
to know that most of the boys in Iwo Jima were 17, 18, and 19 years
old - and it was so hard that the ones who did make it home never
even would talk to their families about it.
(He pointed to the statue) 'You see this next guy? That's Rene
Gagnon from New Hampshire. If you took Rene's helmet off at the
moment this photo was taken and looked in the webbing of that
helmet, you would find a photograph...a photograph of his
girlfriend. Rene put that in there for protection because he was
scared. He was 18 years old. It was just boys who won the battle
of Iwo Jima. Boys. Not old men.
'The next guy here, the third guy in this tableau, was Sergeant
Mike Strank .. Mike is my hero. He was the hero of all these guys.
They called him the 'old man' because he was so old. He was already
24. When Mike would motivate his boys in training camp, he didn't
say, 'Let's go kill some Japanese' or 'Let's die for our country.'
He knew he was talking to little boys.. Instead he would say, 'You
do what I say, and I'll get you home to your mothers.'
'The last guy on this side of the statue is Ira Hayes, a Pima
Indian from Arizona .. Ira Hayes was one of them who lived to walk
off Iwo Jima. He went into the White House with my dad. President
Truman told him, 'You're a hero' He told reporters, 'How can I feel
like a hero when 250 of my buddies hit the island with me and only
27 of us walked off alive?'
So you take your class at school, 250 of you spending a year
together having fun, doing everything together. Then all 250 of you
hit the beach, but only 27 of your classmates walk off alive. That
was Ira Hayes. He had images of horror in his mind. Ira Hayes
carried the pain home with him and eventually died dead drunk, face
down, drowned in a very shallow puddle, at the age of 32 (ten years
after this picture was taken).
'The next guy, going around the statue, is Franklin Sousley from
Hilltop, Kentucky. A fun-lovin' hillbilly boy. His best friend, who
is now 70, told me, 'Yeah, you know, we took two cows up on the porch
of the Hilltop General Store. Then we strung wire across the stairs
so the cows couldn't get down. Then we fed them Epsom salts. Those
cows crapped all night.' Yes, he was a fun-lovin' hillbilly boy.
Franklin died on Iwo Jima at the age of 19. When the telegram came
to tell his mother that he was dead, it went to the Hilltop General
Store. A barefoot boy ran that telegram up to his mother 's farm.
The neighbors could hear her scream all night and into the morning
Those neighbors lived a quarter of a mile away.
'The next guy, as we continue to go around the statue, is my dad,
John Bradley, from Antigo, Wisconsin, where I was raised. My dad
lived until 1994, but he would never give interviews. When Walter
Cronkite's producers or the New York Times would call, we were
trained as little kids to say 'No, I'm sorry, sir, my dad's not
here. He is in Canada fishing. No, there is no phone there, sir. No,
we don't know when he is coming back.' My dad never fished or even
went to Canada. Usually, he was sitting there right at the table
eating his Campbell's soup. But we had to tell the press that he
was out fishing. He didn't want to talk to the press.
'You see, like Ira Hayes, my dad didn't see himself as a hero.
Everyone thinks these guys are heroes, 'cause they are in a photo
and on a monument. My dad knew better. He was a medic. John Bradley
from Wisconsin was a combat caregiver. On Iwo Jima he probably held
over 200 boys as they died. And when boys died on Iwo Jima, they
writhed and screamed, without any medication or help with the pain.
'When I was a little boy, my third grade teacher told me that my dad
was a hero. When I went home and told my dad that, he looked at me
and said, 'I want you always to remember that the heroes of Iwo Jima
are the guys who did not come back. Did NOT come back.'
'So that's the story about six nice young boys. Three died on Iwo
Jima, and three came back as national heroes. Overall, 7,000 boys
died on Iwo Jima in the worst battle in the history of the Marine
Corps. My voice is giving out, so I will end here. Thank you for
your time..'
Suddenly, the monument wasn't just a big old piece of metal with a
flag sticking out of the top. It came to life before our eyes with
the heartfelt words of a son who did indeed have a father who was a
hero. Maybe not a hero for the reasons most people would believe,
but a hero nonetheless.
We need to remember that God created this vast and glorious world
for us to live in, freely, but also at great sacrifice.
Let us never forget from the Revolutionary War to the current War
on Terrorism and all the wars in-between that sacrifice was made for
our freedom...please pray for our troops.
Remember to pray praises for this great country of ours and also
...please pray for our troops still in murderous places around the
world.
STOP and thank God for being alive and being free due to someone
else's sacrifice.
God Bless You and God Bless America!
REMINDER: Everyday that you can wake up free, it's going to be a
great day.
One thing I learned while on tour with my 8th grade students in DC
that is not mentioned here is . . that if you look at the statue
very closely and count the number of 'hands' raising the flag, there
are 13. When the man who made the statue was asked why there were 13,
he simply said the 13th hand was the hand of God.
Great story -
worth your time -
worth every American 's time.

>From BizarreNews:
Shoppers and employees at a Walmart store in Texas, were
shocked to see Batman detaining a shoplifter and giving
him a citation.
Fort Worth Police officer Damon Cole said that he was
outside the Walmart store for a kids fair and was dressed
as Batman.
At some point, Cole received an alert that a man was
attempting to steal 4 DVDs from the Walmart store. Cole,
who was dressed as Batman, located the suspect and he
identified himself as an off-duty police officer.
When Cole saw that one of the DVDs was a Batman movie, he
told the suspect that he cannot steal his videos. Since
the four DVDs were valued at less than $100, the suspect
received a citation for shoplifting.
"I was at Wal-Mart as Batman for kids day. This male
attempted to steal 4 DVD's. I stopped him as Batman. He
asked me for a selfie as Batman," Officer Cole reported
later.
Before leaving the scene, the suspect asked to take a
selfie with Batman, and Cole agreed.

Fame can be addictive. Even fake, ephemeral fame like you
get on YouTube. And in order to get that fame, people will
do some really stupid things that they would otherwise
never do.
One such incident occurred recently in Minnesota where a
young man talked his girlfriend into helping him with what
turned into a fatal 'prank'.
So what would get a whole lot of views? 22-year-old Pedro
Ruiz III decided the most outrageous thing he could do was
to get his girlfrind, 19-year-old Monalisa Perez, to shoot
him in the chest.
Oh, he was going to take safety precautions, of course. His
plan was to hold a book up against his chest while Perez
shot him.
The couple often made prank videos and posted them on
YouTube. In one of the videos, Perez tries to prank Ruiz
with a sandwich filled with hot peppers, and in another,
the couple detail their stay at a haunted hotel.
But this time Perez tweeted that the couple had agreed to
carry out "one of the most dangerous videos ever."
Unfortunately, the prank went very wrong, and the bullet
went through the book and into Ruiz's chest, killing him
before he could be air-lifted for medical treatment.
The stunt might have even worked if Ruiz hadn't decided to
use one of the most powerful handguns in the world; the .50
caliber Desert Eagle.
It was not reported what book was used.
Perez was charged with second-degree manslaughter.

*-- Crash Releases 30 Snakes on Highway --*
Authorities in Texas said a van crashed on the highway in
the San Antonio area and released 30 snakes, a baby alligator
and a tortoise. The Bexar County Sheriff's Office said the
van blew a tire causing it to rollover onto the access road.
The Somerset Volunteer Fire Department said the animals
released in the crash include venomous rattlesnakes, copper-
head snakes, a large diamondback rattlesnake and water
moccasins. Lytle Animal Control and Texas Game Warden
officials responded to the scene to recapture the escaped
reptiles. The most recent update said 23 of the snakes had
been recaptured, with one snake dead and the alligator
still on the loose. The driver of the van and a 9-year-old
passenger were taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center.
The animals and vehicle involved in the crash are privately
owned, the sheriff's office said.
+-- The Case of the Mysterious Exploding Playgroud Slide? --+
A young boy suffered serious injuries while playing at a
park with his parents and siblings, according to police in
Wisconsin. West Allis police said that investigators are
trying to figure out what caused the slide to explode while
the boy was playing on it. Police ruled out foul play
despite the fact that the manufacturer had installed this
type of slide all over the world and they never exploded.
The incident unfolded while 9-year-old Giuseppe Storniolo
was playing at the Reservoir Park. The boy's mother Diana,
said that she heard an explosion while her son was playing
by the slide. At first, she thought that something fell,
but when she checked on her son, she realized that he
suffered second-degree burns on his leg. While the boy was
sliding down, the slide exploded and melted. The slide was
immediately taken apart by city workers.
*-- 'Balls, Las Vegas' --*
Visitors to the Las Vegas strip took note of an
unintentionally hilarious sign resulting from Bally's
temporarily losing its letter Y. Weekend visitors outside
Bally's snapped photos of the sign, which was missing the
10-foot-tall letter Y, causing the sign to read "Balls,
Las Vegas." Bally's owner Caesars Entertainment said the
300-pound Y was removed Friday when officials became
concerned that it was leaning and could fall over in the
wind. The company said it expects the Y to be back in place
by Wednesday.
*-- You've Got To Hand It To Him --*
A Florida man walked more than 3 miles on his hands in hopes
of breaking a world record and raising funds for charity.
Ashwin Kalyandurg, 22, walked 3.17 miles on his hands,
surpassing a 2002 Guinness World Record by 100 meters,
during an event to raise funds for four charitable
organizations. "Everything is in pain," Kalyandurg said
after completing the record-breaking feat. Kalyandurg, a
senior medical student at Nova Southeastern University,
performed the world record attempt at the Pledge-Per-Step
Challenge in Boca Raton. He took breaks throughout the
3-mile journey, which took about eight hours, and has
submitted his record attempt to Guinness for approval. For
two months leading up to the event, Kalyandurg trained his
body by climbing palm trees, doing push-ups and walking up
and down parking garage ramps on his hands. Kalyandurg had
walked on his hands for charity in the past, walking for
about 12 hours to benefit the American Cancer Society at
his university.

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and
after a big fight they were giving each other the silent
treatment.
Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need
his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business
flight.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE),
he wrote on a piece of paper, 'Important; wake me at
5:00 AM.' He left it where he knew she would find it.
The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was
8:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about
to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he
noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The paper said, 'It is 5:00 AM. Wake up.'
Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

It was time for finals and a student was struggling with one
particular question on his chemistry test.
The question was "If H2O if water, what is H2O4?"
This was a quick answer for most, but it took this student
some thinking time.
Finally, he wrote down his answer: For drinking, washing,
and cleaning.

There was a poor, distraught man sitting at the bar of his
local watering hole, just staring into his drink. He stays
like that for a half hour. Then a big trouble-maker walks
through the door; leather biker jacket, neck-beard, tattoos
and sunglasses. He sees the the poor, lonely man, moping at
the bar by himself and decides to have a little fun. Walking
up to the bar he reaches over and grabs the guy's glass and
drinks it down in one go.
Immediately the poor man starts crying. The the bully says,
"Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another
drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry."
"No, it's not that," the man replies, wiping his tears.
"It's just that this has been the worst day of my life.
First, I oversleep go in late to the office. My boss losses
his temper and fires me. When I leave the building to go to
my car, I find out it was stolen. The police say they can't
do anything. I get a cab to go home, and when I get out, I
forget my wallet. The cab driver just drives away. I go
inside my house where I find my wife in bed with my neighbor.
So I left my home, come to this bar, and just when I was
thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and
drink my poison."

A co-worker came to work one day wearing shoes that were
identical in style, only one was black and the other brown.
I quietly pointed this out to him. He smiled and said,
"Unusual, aren't they? Believe it or not, I've got another
pair just like this at home."

A man is sitting in the coach section of a flight from New
York to Chicago biting his finger nails and sweating
profusely. Noticing his disturbed expression, a flight
attendant walks over and says, "Sir, can I get you something
from the bar to calm you down?"
The man gives a nod of approval while shaking terribly. She
comes back with a drink and he downs it quickly. Ten minutes
later, the flight attendant sees the same man shaking and
biting his nails. She brings him another drink which he
swallows immediately.
A half hour later she returns to see that the man is shaking
uncontrollably, and apparently crying. "My goodness," the
flight attendant says, "I've never seen someone so afraid to
fly."
"I'm not afraid of flying," says the man sobbing loudly,
"I'm trying to give up drinking."

Judi and Gayle were at an auto show. There they saw a
hot-rod with a jacked up rear end.
"Judi, why is the back end higher than the front?" Gayle
asked.
"Don't you know ANYTHING?" Judi sighed exasperated. "If
you've got the back up like that, then you're always going
downhill!"

Sitting in the bar George asked his 40-year-old friend John,
"How come you aren't married?"
John: "I haven't found the right woman yet."
George: "So what are you looking for?"
John: "Oh she's got to be real pretty, a good cook and house
keeper, she's got to know how to handle finances, have a
forgiving personality -- and money, she's got to have money,
and if she has her own house it wouldn't hurt either."
George: "A woman like that would be crazy to marry YOU!"
John: "Oh, it's okay if she's crazy."

My wife asked me to buy ORGANIC vegetables from the market.
I went and looked around and couldn't find any.
So I grabbed a harassed and tired looking employee and said,
"These vegetables are for my wife. Have they been sprayed
with any poisonous chemicals?"
The produce guy looked at me and said, "No, sir, you'll have
to do that yourself."

Without looking at it, I tucked it into my purse.
Later, the pharmacist filled the order, remarking on the

...Wowsers! Amazing how perfectly he did it! Great training paid off!
Thanks LouiseAu!
Take a look at 17 Husky Sled Dogs getting a little summer workout in
Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. I can’t even begin to imagine the time
required to care for 17 Huskies but the commitment from the sled dog
racer has to be huge to care for these wonderful dogs. Seeing how they
train was pretty cool but I’m still a little amazed at how they all
waited patiently for their post run dinner to be put in their dog
bowls.
