The road was deserted and he had not seen a soul for what seemed like hours. Suddenly his car started to cough and splutter and the engine slowly died away, leaving him sitting on the side of the road in total silence. He popped the hood and looked to see if there was anything that he could do to get it going again. Unfortunately, he had a limited knowledge of cars, so all he could do was look at the engine, feeling despondent As he stood looking at the gradually fading light of his flashlight, he cursed that he had not put in new batteries, like he had promised himself. Suddenly, through the inky shadows, came a deep voice, "It's your fuel pump." The man raised up quickly, striking his head on the underside of the hood. "Who said that?" he demanded. There were two horses standing in the fenced field alongside the road and the man was amazed when the nearest of the two horses repeated, "It's your fuel pump. Tap it with your flashlight, and try it again." Confused, the man tapped the fuel pump with his flashlight, turned the key and sure enough, the engine roared to life. He muttered a short thanks to the horse and screeched away. When he reached the next town, he ran into the local bar. "Gimme a large whiskey, please!" he said. A rancher sitting at the bar looked at the man's ashen face and asked, "What's wrong, man? You look like you've seen a ghost." "It's unbelievable," the man said and recalled the whole tale to the rancher. The rancher took a sip of his beer and looked thoughtful. "A horse, you say? Was it by any chance a white horse?" The man replied to the affirmative. "Yes, it was! Am I crazy?" "No, you ain't crazy. In fact, you're lucky," said the rancher, "because that black horse don't know crap about cars." ======================================================= +------------ BIZARRE HOLIDAYS ------------+ May 28 is Amnesty International Day, Memorial Day and National Hamburger Day May 29 is Learn About Composting Day and Water a Flower Day May 31 is National Macaroon Day, Save Your Hearing Day and World No Tobacco Day June 1 is Dare Day, Flip a Coin Day and National Doughnut Day June 2 is National Bubba Day, National Rocky Road Day and National Trails Day First Saturday in June June 3 is Repeat Day (I said "Repeat Day") ======================================================= >-->From GoodCleanFun: ======;===========;() #######:::::: #######:::::: #######:::::: jgs #######:::::: ############# ############# ############# ############# ############# ############# >Memorial Day 2018 (Serious, Not Humor) In the United States, Memorial Day is celebrated on the last Monday in May and honors those men and women who lost their lives serving their country. What we celebrate as Memorial Day today, began at the end of the Civil War. Family members of the many soldiers slain in battle would visit the grave sites of their fallen relatives or friends and decorate the graves with flowers. On May 5, 1868, General John Logan proclaimed this day a holiday through his General Order No. 11. The day was entitled Decoration Day and was first observed on May 30, 1868. The northern states celebrated this day every year, but the southern states celebrated a day similar to this on a different day until sometime after World War I. In 1882, the name Decoration day was changed to Memorial Day, and in 1971, Memorial Day was declared a national holiday to be held on the last Monday of May every year. Over the years it has come to serve as a day to remember all U.S. men and women killed or missing in action in all wars. I am truly grateful for the freedoms which we enjoy today. Too often, we take these gifts for granted, little realizing the sacrifice which was involved in ensuring that these freedoms continue to be a part of all our lives. Be honest, how many of us think of Memorial Day as just another chance for a three-day weekend? A chance to go the lakes or beaches or mountains? A trip to Disneyland or Six Flags or some other amusement/theme park? I know there are probably some people on the GCF mailing list who might not agree with my views in these special emails, but as a former Hospital Corpsman (US Navy), I want to give my humble thanks to those who gave their lives so that we have the right to disagree with each other. Any day is a good day to remember the ultimate sacrifice that was made on our behalf. If you are here in the United States, please remember to display the flag, not just for the day but for the whole weekend. Let's not forget the real reason for having this holiday. The quotes below say it all. Please take the time to read them. Take care everyone. Tom (HM2, USN 65-69) "It is, in a way, an odd thing to honor those who died in defense of our country in wars far away. The imagination plays a trick. We see these soldiers in our mind as old and wise. We see them as something like the Founding Fathers, grave and gray-haired. But most of them were boys when they died, they gave up two lives -- the one they were living and the one they would have lived. When they died, they gave up their chance to be husbands and fathers and grandfathers. They gave up their chance to be revered old men. They gave up everything for their county, for us. All we can do is remember." -- Ronald Wilson Reagan Remarks at Veteran's Day ceremony, Arlington National Cemetery Arlington, Virginia, November 11, 1985 "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." -- Ronald Wilson Reagan Address to the annual meeting of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce March 30, 1961 ----- Let's all pause and take a minute to REMEMBER. Pearl Harbor 1941 ... Normandy 1944 ... Pork Chop Hill Korea 1953 ... Tet Offensive Vietnam 1968 ... Desert Storm Kuwait 1991 ... The World Trade Center 9/11 2001 ... Shock and Awe Iraq 2003 ... Iraq War Surge 2007 ... Afghanistan TODAY. After having taken a minute to REMEMBER Let's take one more minute to say THANK YOU for all that was given, all that was lost and all that was gained for us to enjoy our Hot-Dogs, Soft Ball, Picnics, Swimming Pools, Beaches, Iced Tea and Kids ... in Peace in the Greatest Country on God's Green Earth. ----- A final thought and addition to the words above..... Over the years the meaning of Memorial Day has faded too much from the public consciousness. From a solemn day of mourning, remembrance, and honor to the men and women who died in providing the freedoms we enjoy, it has been reduced to a weekend of BBQ's, shopping bargains and beaches where only token nods toward our honored dead are given, if at all. Too many don't even know what the day stands for. So, let's not forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice. They are remembered in all our prayers. Also, let's not forget a prayer for the safety of all service men and women, whether they serve at home or overseas. Finally, a heartfelt Semper Fi from this former Hospital Corpsman is sent to all the Marines I knew. -Tom -<>- >Hospital Hallway Skipping down the hall with her parents, at the hospital where I work, was the cutest little blond girl wearing hot-pink Crocs. One of the nurses walking down the same hall was wearing those colorful printed scrubs that hospital staff often sport, and when she passed the family, she said to the little girl, "Wow! I sure like your shoes." "Thank you!" the girl replied. As she continued down the hallway, she added, "And I sure like your jammies!" -<>- >Campaign Promise A political candidate stood on a platform and announced to the assembled crowd that he was going to fight radicalism, socialism, communism, and anarchism. One old man snorted and said, "I'll vote for you when you can do something about rheumatism." -<>- >Teaching Opportunity For years my husband denied he was an aggressive driver. That changed one day when we were out for a drive with our three-year old son, Matthew. Seeing a teaching opportunity, I asked Matthew about traffic lights. "What does a red light mean?" I asked. "Stop." "Good. How about green?" "Go." "And yellow?" I continued. In his best deep-voice impression of Daddy, Matthew bellowed... "Hang on!" -<>- >Rules Not Learned in School Rule #1. Life is not fair. Get used to it. The average teenager uses the phrase "it's not fair" 8.6 times a day. You got it from your parents, who said it so often you decided they must be the most idealistic generation ever. When they started hearing it from their own kids, they realized Rule #1. Rule #2. The real world won't care as much about your self-esteem as your school does. It'll expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. This may come as a shock. Usually, when inflated self-esteem meets reality, kids complain that it's not fair. (See Rule No. 1) Rule #3. Sorry, you won't make $70,000 a year right out of high school. And you won't be a vice president or have a car provided either. You may even have to wear a uniform that doesn't have a Gap label. Rule #4. If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn't have tenure, so he tends to be a bit edgier. When you screw up, he is not going ask you how feel about it. Rule #5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping. They called it opportunity. They weren't embarrassed making minimum wage either. Rule #6. It's not your parents' fault. If you screw up, you are responsible. This is the flip side of "It's my life," and "You're not the boss of me," and other eloquent proclamations of your generation. When you turn 18, it's on your dime. Don't whine about it or you'll sound like a millennial. Rule #7. Before you were born your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way paying your bills, cleaning up your room and listening to you tell them how idealistic you are. And by the way, before you save the rain forest from the blood-sucking parasites of your parents' generation try delousing the closet in your bedroom. Rule #8. Life is not divided into semesters, and you don't get summers off. Nor even Easter break. Work expects you to show up every day. For eight hours. And you don't get a new life every 10 weeks. It just goes on and on. Rule #9. Television is not real life. Your life is not a sitcom. Your problems will not all be solved in 30 minutes, minus time for commercials. In real life, people actually have to leave the coffee shop to go to jobs. Rule #10. Be nice to nerds. You may end up working for them. We all could. Rule #11. Enjoy this while you can. Sure, parents are a pain, school's a bother, and life is depressing. But someday you'll realize how wonderful it was to be kid. Maybe you should start now. -<>- >Roses are Red ..... Roses are red, violets are blue. That's what they say, but it just isn't true! Roses are red and apples are too, But violets are violet...violets aren't blue! An orange is orange, but Greenland's not green. A pinky's not pink, so what does it mean? To call something blue when it's not, we defile it. But ah, why not ... it's hard to rhyme violet! ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend LouiseAu :) _.--. ;.-'i.`._.--, {(;{} y`-.`,_`--. <`~;`-( _.'`.~`.' \ \ `i.' ` Y },-,) .j~. | ; / _j\ <_ `! ;_.'( / >-, `---.,' .'-j / `. ,<_ ( `. \ `=-j\ `-SMILES A police recruit was asked during the exam, "What would you do if you had to arrest your own mother?"

Adam replied: "I don't have anyone to talk to." God told Adam that He would create a companion for Adam, a woman. "What would a woman be like?" the man wondered aloud. God replied, "This person will gather your food, cook for you and when you discover clothing, she will make it and wash it for you." He continued, "She will always agree with every decision you make. She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will not nag you and she will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement. She will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it." Adam then asked God, "What will a woman like that cost me?" "Just an arm and a leg," God answered. "Well, what can I get for a rib?" Adam asked. ---------- Paul was not the brightest guy around. Every day, when he walked home from work, he would get stopped by three nasty men and they would beat him up and steal his money. Finally, Paul decided that it would serve his best interest to walk a different route, but also take some self-defense classes so this wouldn't happen again. He joined a karate class and soon was doing very well with it. So, one day, on the way home from work, Paul confidently decided to take his old route home and, sure enough, there they were. He walked up to them and the battle ensued. The next afternoon, Paul went to his karate class with a black eye, a broken nose and a busted lip. His instructor was shocked and asked for an explanation. "Well," explained Paul, "I took my old way home last night so I could beat those guys up who used to steal my money." His instructor said, "What happened?" Paul replied, "They jumped me before I could get my shoes and socks off!" ---------- _ \`*-. ) _`-. . : `. . : _ ' \ ; *` _. `*-._ `-.-' `-. ; ` `. :. . \ . \ . : .-' .

After she had a minor accident, her mother accompanied her to the emergency room. The triage nurse asked for her height and weight, and she blurted out, "Five-foot-eight, 125 pounds."

"Sweetheart," she gently chided, "this is not the Internet." ---------- Bernie and Esther were not the most religious Jews and in fact they really only went to Temple once a year. As they were leaving the Temple, the Rabbi said, "Bernie, it sure would be nice to see you and Esther here more than once a year!" "I know," replied Bernie, "but at least we keep the Ten Commandments." "That's great," the Rabbi said. "I'm glad to hear that you keep the Commandments." "Yep," Bernie said proudly, "Esther keeps six of them and I keep the other four." ------- An old Italian Mafia Don is dying and he called his grandson to his bed. "Grandson I wanna you lisin to me.

However did you manage to pick the winner?" The old lady patted her white locks in place. She looked a little bewildered. "Really," she said, "I don't know myself. I just stick a pin in the paper and, well, there it is." The bookie took a deep breath. "That's all very well, lady," he cried.

Cara Koscinski of Charleston said her son, Jacob, graduated summa cum laude (Latin: 'with highest praise') from a Christian-based home-schooling program and she wanted to celebrate the occasion with a cake from Publix food stores. Koscinski said she ordered the cake online and ran into an obstacle when the order form told her "Summa Cum Laude" was not acceptable due to the inclusion of profanity. The mother said she used the "special instructions" part of the order form to explain what the term meant and included a link to a website that explained the Latin. Koscinski said her husband picked up the cake from the store and brought it to Jacob's graduation party, where it was unveiled in front of his friends and family with the message "Summa ___ Laude" printed on the icing. "It was unbelievable. I ordered the special graduation edition cake. I can't believe I'm the first one to ever write 'Summa Cum Laude' on a cake," Koscinski said. Koscinski said she had to explain to party guests, including Jacob's 70-year-old grandmother, why the store would omit the word "cum" from the cake. "My son was humiliated!" Koscinski wrote on Facebook. "I seriously couldn't make this crap up!" Publix apologized to the family and offered to refund the price of the cake. "The cake experience was kind of frustrating and humiliating because I had to explain to my friends and family like what that meant. And they were giggling uncontrollably. At least my friends were," Jacob Koscinski said. --- ...This is why we don't speak Latin... HaHa with the highest distinction. "he graduated summa cum laude" http://www.dictionary.com/browse/summa-cum-laude How Did Latin Become A Dead Language? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZJ0fzr1ajg Now you know! :) -<>- A chimera? A prehistoric throwback? Possibly a rare species that hasn't been scene since the Ice Age? Whatever it was, an extremely unusual, possibly unique wolf-like creature was spotted in northcentral Montana near Denton and promptly murdered to death. Wildlife experts and rangers were unable to pinpoint exactly what it was. With long grayish fur, a large head and an extended snout, the animal shared many of the same characteristics as a wolf; but its ears were too large, it's legs and body too short, and its fur uncharacteristic of that common to a wolf. It was possible to examine the animal so closely because it was deader than a doornail. "We have no idea what this was until we get a DNA report back," said Bruce Auchly, information manager for Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks. "It was near a rancher's place, it was shot, and our game wardens went to investigate. The whole animal was sent to our lab in Bozeman. That's the last I ever heard of it." "That's a grizzly cub," one commentator wrote. "Under a year and starving from the look." "Maybe a dire wolf," wrote another, "because I don't believe they are all gone." "That could very well be what's being called Dogman," one poster suggested. "They're spotted each day and the govern- ment quells any and all reports. Several people report being strong armed into keeping quiet about their reports by men wearing black suits. These are just facts. Look into if if you don't believe it." Speculation roamed as far as identifying that animal as a crypto-canid species said to roam the forests of North America. Nonetheless, there remains an element of uncertainty about the creature, even among wildlife biologists. What is certain is how dead it is. While it is legal to shoot a wolf if it is preying on live- stock on private property, the strange animal shot near Denton was not directly implicated in any livestock predation, but as FWP warden Zach Norris noted, the ranching family who shot it were well within their legal right to do so. "If you're letting your dog run wild and it's chasing live- stock, the property owner has the right to shoot it," said Ty Smucker, wolf management specialist. "Whether it's a wolf or a dog chasing cows, or a dog that looks like a wolf; in Montana on private land, property owners and livestock producers have every right to shoot a wolf." --- ...DNA will probably match it to a dog or wolf - mutated or having some genetic problems - most of the time that is the case - even saw once where an unknown weird animal turned out to be just a poor critter having mange that distorted it's looks so bad that folks didn't know what it was. Like this story: This Bear Cub Is Unrecognizable Because Of Severe Mange https://www.ranker.com/list/facts-about-mange/beth-elias Hey, I love a mystery - so of course I already knew about these! *------------- Another Garage Fire -------------* This story keeps popping up in Bizarre News. Once it was a man who burned down his garage with a torch while trying to melt icicles. Another time it was a man who burned down his garage trying to destroy a wasp nest. This week's man with a torch was battling weeds. Authorities in Ohio said a man attempting to use a torch to kill weeds in his yard ended up setting his garage on fire. Firefighters said the home- owner told investigators he was trying to kill the weeds around his detached garage with a torch and the structure caught fire accidentally. No injuries were reported. The garage was considered a total loss, with damage estimated at $10,000-$15,000. Well worth it to get rid of those pesky weeds. *------------- Airborne What Now? -------------* Some people say there are too many guns in America, and it's hard to argue the point when stray firearms are literally flying around the expressways. A driver who spotted a "black object" flying through the air on a Washington highway stopped 18 miles later and found a handgun embedded in his bumper. Washington State Patrol Trooper Guy Gill said the man was driving on Interstate 5 when he saw the object fly through the air and appear to strike his bumper. The man told troopers he didn't think the object had struck his bumper very hard and no warning lights came on, so he decided not to stop and investigate. Gill said the man stopped at a gas station about 18 miles later and discovered the handgun lodged barrel-first in his front bumper. He said it was one of the strangest things he's seen in his 23 years on the job. Gill said the gun was turned over to Lakewood police. Investigators are looking into whether the weapon was used in a shooting at Harry Todd Park in Lakewood. *--- Step 1: Steal razor blades. Step 3: Profit ---* A woman came up with a get rich quick scheme in order to make a lot of money from an insurance company. Correill Bradley, 29, of Louisiana went to the Mercy Regional Medical Center for treatment after suffering a cut to her mouth. Bradley claimed that she bit into a sandwich, which she bought from a fast food restaurant, and injured her mouth. She said that she found a razor blade in her food when she got home. She then filed an insurance claim with the restaurant's insurance company and contacted a personal injury attorney about representation, police said. When police examined the razor, it looked new and did not appear to have been mixed with other food from her sandwich. Officers checked with the hardware store near the restaurant who sold the same razors. While reviewing store surveillance videos, detectives saw Bradley grabbing a pack of razor blades from the shelf and leaving without paying for them. Furthermore, security videos from the restaurant proved that no one placed any contraband into Bradley's sandwich. So far, Bradley was arrested for criminal mischief and theft. *----------------- Pig Stalker -----------------* Police in Ohio said they thought a man who reported being followed by a pig was drunk, but it turned out he was "very sober" and indeed being stalked by swine. The North Ridgeville Police Department said that a man called 911 about 5:26 a.m. to report he was being followed by a pig while walking home from the train station. The statement said police thought the man was "drunk" and "hallucinating" his porcine pursuer, but officers arrived to find the man was "very sober" and had a pig hot on his trail. An officer was able to wrangle the pig into his patrol cruiser. "Also, we will mention the irony of the pig in a police car now so that anyone that thinks they're funny is actually unoriginal and trying too hard," the police said. The pig was taken to the city's dog kennels and was later reunited with its owner. ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend Cloie :) (\ \'\ \'\ __________ / '| ()_________) \ '/ \ ~~~~~~~~ \ \ \ ~~~~~~ \ ==). \__________\ (__) ()__________) unknown >Dear Boss, I have enjoyed working here these past several years.

Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. The people who produce the bottles. The truck drivers who deliver the beer and the retailers who sell it. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver." -<>- A man was trying to pull out of a parking place, and bashed the bumper of the parked car in front of him. Witnessed by a handful of pedestrians waiting for a bus, the driver got out, inspected the damage, and proceeded to write a note to leave on the windshield of the car he had hit. The note read: "Hello. I have just hit your car, and there are some people here watching me who think that I am writing this note to leave you my name and phone number. You should be so lucky!" -<>- A kangaroo kept getting out of his enclosure at the zoo. Knowing that he could hop pretty high, the zoo officials put up an 8-foot fence. The next morning, however, the kangaroo was out again, idly roaming around the zoo. The zoo officials raised the height of the fence to ten feet. Again, however, the next morning the kangaroo was again roaming about the zoo. This kept on, night after night, until the fence was 20 feet high. Finally, the camel in the next enclosure asked the kangaroo, "How high do you think they'll go?" The kangaroo replied, "Who knows? Maybe 50 feet. Unless some- body starts locking the gate at night." -<>- However, I used to get frustrated when I asked my husband what he wanted for dinner because he never asked for any of those things. So, I decided to stock the freezer with what he really likes. If you look in my freezer now you'll see a whole new set of labels. You'll find dinners with neat little tags that say: "Whatever," "Anything," "I Don't Know," "I Don't Care," "Something Good," or "Food." My frustration is now reduced because no matter what my husband replies when I ask him what he wants for dinner, I know that it is there waiting. -<>- In honor of Memorial Day, the teacher I worked with read the Constitution to her third-grade class.

"Well, I have good news and bad news," the owner responded. "The good news is that a gentleman noticed your work and wondered if it would appreciate in value after your death. I told him it would and he bought all 10 of your paintings." "That's wonderful," the artist exclaimed. "What's the bad news?" "The gentleman was your doctor." <><><><><><><> There was a tradesman, a painter called Wayne, who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often would thin down paint to make it go a wee bit further. As it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually the Baptist Church decided to do a big restoration job on the painting of one of their biggest buildings. Wayne put in a bid, and because his price was so low, he got the job. And so he set to erecting the trestles and setting up the planks, and buying the paint and, yes, I am sorry to say, thinning it down with turpentine. Well, Wayne was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly completed when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder, and the sky opened, the rain poured down, washing the thinned paint from all over the church and knocking Wayne clear off the scaffold to land on the lawn among the gravestones, surrounded by telltale puddles of the thinned and useless paint. Wayne was no fool. He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty, so he got on his knees and cried: "Oh, God! Forgive me! What should I do?" "Repaint! Repaint! And thin no more!" <><><><> After being with her all evening, the man couldn't take another minute with his blind date.
