...Aww, so sweet and thoughtful of you Michelle! Thank you!
I've tried it. It does work. I will see how much it costs as to
whether I can justify the time saved by using it verses formatting
and editing the messages myself each time I use the saved database
files. I'm already short over $500 for this year. Fortunately, they
are readable using Wordpad - but will take a lot of work to be
usable without this extracting program.

>Murphy's Laws Of Work
1. A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in
the pants.
2. Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't
be promoted.
3. The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going
to get.
4. You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a
clipboard.
5. Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing
worse will happen to you the rest of the day.
6. Never ask two questions in a business letter. The reply will
discuss the one you are least interested in, and say nothing
about the other.
7. When the bosses talk about improving productivity, they are
never talking about themselves.
8. If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use
being a fool about it.
9. There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your
car when the boss asks for a ride home from the office.
10. Mother said there would be days like this, but she never said
there would be so many.
11. Keep your boss's boss off your boss's back. This is what
I'm doing wrong.
12. Everything can be filed under "miscellaneous."
13. Never delay the ending of a meeting or the beginning of a
cocktail hour.
14. To err is human, to forgive is not company policy.
15. Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work
he is supposed to be doing.
16. Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors
in the mail.
17. The last person that quit or was fired will be the one held
responsible for everything that goes wrong...
18. ...until the next person quits or is fired.
19. There is never enough time to do it right the first time,
but there is always enough time to do it over.
20. The more pretentious a corporate name, the smaller the
organization. (For instance, The Murphy Centre for Codification
of Human and Organizational Law, contrasted to IBM, GM, AT&T...).
21. If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you
are really good, you will get out of it.
22. You are always doing something marginal when the boss drops
by your desk.
23. People are always available for work in the past tense.
24. If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done.
25. At work, the authority of a person is inversely proportional
to the number of pens that person is carrying.
26. When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.
27. You will always get the greatest recognition for the job you
least like.
28. No one gets sick on Wednesdays.
29. When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more
easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger
or Macgyver handle this?"
30. The longer the title, the less important the job.
31. Machines that have broken down will work perfectly when the
repairman arrives.
32. An "acceptable" level of employment means that the government
economist to whom it is acceptable still has a job.
33. Once a job is fouled up, anything done to improve it makes it
worse.
34. All vacations and holidays create problems, except for one's own.
35. Success is just a matter of luck, just ask any failure.

>Checking Out
I was checking out at a busy supermarket and the cashier was having
problems. The register ran out of paper, the scanner malfunctioned,
and then the cashier spilled a handful of coins.
When she totaled my order, it came to exactly $22. Trying to soothe
her nerves, I said, "That's a nice round figure."
Still frazzled, she glared at me and said, "You're no bean pole
yourself!"

>Mr. Mom
Notes, pinned to the pillow of a mother who has the flu, by a well
meaning husband who has inherited the house and kids.
Monday A.M.
Dearest: Sleep late. Everything under control. Lunches packed. Kids
off to school. Menu for dinner planned. Your lunch is on a tray in
refrigerator:
fruit cup, finger-sandwiches. Thermos of hot tea by bedside. See
you around six.
Tuesday A.M.
Honey: Sorry about the egg rack in the refrigerator. Hope you got
back to sleep. Did the kids tell you about the soda I put in the
thermoses? The school might call you on this. Dinner may be a little
late. I'm doing your door-to-door canvas for liver research. Your
lunch is in refrigerator. Hope you like
leftover chili.
Wednesday A.M.
Dear Doris: Why in the name of all that is sane would you put soap
powder in the flour canister! If you have time, could you please
come up with a likely spot for Timmy's missing shoes? We've checked
the clothes hamper, garage, back seat of the car and wood box. Did
you know the school has a ruling on bedroom slippers? There's some
cold pizza for you on a napkin in the oven drawer. Will be late
tonight. Driving eight Girl Scouts to tour meatpacking house.
Thursday A.M.
Doris: Don't panic over water in hallway. It crested last night at 9
P.M. Will finish laundry tonight. Please pencil in answers to
following:
1. How do you turn on the garbage disposal?
2. Why would that rotten kid leave his shoes in his boots?
3. How do you remove a Confederate flag inked on the palm of a small
boy's hand?
4. What do you do with leftovers when they begin to snap at you when
you open the refrigerator door?
Friday A.M.
Hey: Don't drink from pitcher by the sink. Am trying to restore pink
dress shirt to original white. Take heart. Tonight, the ironing will
be folded, the house cleaned and the dinner on time. I called your
mother.

>Horseshoe
One day a cowboy walked into a blacksmith shop and picked up a
horseshoe, not realizing that it had recently come out of the forge.
He immediately dropped it and jammed his hand into his pocket, trying
to act as if nothing had happened.
The blacksmith noticed and asked with a grin, "Kind of hot, wasn't it?"
"Nope," answered the cowboy through clenched teeth, "it just doesn't
take me long to look at a horseshoe."

>New Baby Brother
A husband and his pregnant wife took their six-year-old daughter with
them for his wife's prenatal visit.
Later, while leaving the doctor's office, the father told the
daughter, "Everything is fine and you'll be having a baby brother in
a few months."
Not wanting to wait for her new sibling, she asked, "Daddy, if you
pay for the baby now, can we take him home today?"

>Correspondence Questionnaire
A Marine private was filling out a questionnaire for a correspondence
course.
He got to this question: "How long has your present employer been in
business?"
He thought for a moment, then wrote: "Since 1775."

>SMILES:
Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A mobile phone
on a bench rings and a man engages the hands free speaker
function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to
listen.
MAN: "Hello"
WOMAN: "Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
MAN: "Yes"
WOMAN: "I am at the shop now and found this beautiful leather
coat. It's only $2,000. Is it OK if I buy it?"
MAN: "Sure, go ahead if you like it that much."
WOMAN: "I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new
models. I saw one I really liked."
MAN: "How much?"
WOMAN: "$90,000"
MAN: "OK, but for that price I want it with all the options."
WOMAN: "Great! Oh, and one more thing...the house I wanted last
year is back on the market. They're asking $980,000"
MAN: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $900,000.
They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra 80
thousand if it's really a pretty good deal."
WOMAN: "OK. I'll see you later! I love you so much!"
MAN: "Bye! I love you, too."
The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are staring at
him in astonishment, mouths agape.
He turns and asks: "Hey, does anyone know who this phone belongs
to?"
----------
A blonde came home from her first day commuting into the city. Her
mother noticed she was looking a little peaked and asked, "Honey,
are you feeling all right?"
"Not really," the blonde replied. "I'm nauseous from sitting
backward on the train."
"Poor dear," Mom said. "Why didn't you ask the person sitting
across from you to switch seats for a while?"
"I couldn't," she replied, "there was no one there.
----------
An elderly couple were celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The
couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to
their old neighborhood after they retired.
Holding hands they walked back to their old school. It was not
locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they'd shared,
where Andy had carved "I love you, Sally."
On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of an armored car,
practically landing at their feet. Sally quickly picked it up, but
not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted
the money - fifty-thousand dollars!
Andy said, "We've got to give it back."
Sally said, "Finders keepers." She put the money back in the bag
and hid it in their attic.
The next day, two FBI agents were canvassing the neighborhood
looking for the money, and knocked on the door. "Pardon me, but did
either of you find a bag that fell out of an armored car yesterday?"
Sally said, "No."
Andy said, "She's lying. She hid it up in the attic."
Sally said, "Don't believe him, he's getting senile."
The agents turn to Andy and began to question him.
One says: "Tell us the story from the beginning."
Andy said, "Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school
yesterday..."
The other FBI agent turns to her partner and says, "We're outta
here."
-------
A brunette and a blonde are walking through the park when the
brunette sees a dead bird on the sidewalk and she says "Look at the
dead bird!"
The blonde looks upwards and says "where?"
----------
One day a mouse was walking on the banks of a river that ran through
the jungle. He saw a Hippopotamus in the water and shouted to the
Hippopotamus, "Hey you, come out of the water onto this bank, NOW".
The Hippopotamus lumbered onto the bank as requested. The mouse then
said, "OK, you can get back in the water now".
The mouse continued walking along the bank until he came upon a lion
having a little dip in the river. The mouse shouted across to the
lion, "Hey you, up here, on this bank now!". The lion was a little
concerned about this 'jumped up' mouse giving him orders but he
complied and climbed up onto the bank. The mouse then said, "OK, you
can get back into the water now". The lion shrugged and returned to
the river.
The mouse continued his trip along the banks of the river until he
came across an elephant having a good old soak. The mouse shouted to
the elephant. "Hey you, Mr. Elephant, up here on this bank now!".
The elephant lumbered out the water and was then told by the mouse
to return to the water.
The elephant however was a little bit annoyed about having his soak
disturbed so he said to the mouse, "What is going on? I've just seen
you call the Hippopotamus, the lion and now me out of the water, why
are you doing this?".
The mouse replied, "If I find the son of a gun who stole my swimming
trunks, I will kill him!".
----------
A textbook nerd is at the beach one day, baring his chest and
showing off his pale, shrunken chest, and of course all the girls
are laughing at him and drooling over the weight-lifting hunks. So
in desperation the kid goes to the lifeguard and asks, "How can I
do something to get these girls interested in me? What can I do to
show off?"
The lifeguard takes pity on this poor guy, with his puny muscles
and baggy trunks and lanky hair, and finally he says, "Tell you
what - why don't you take a potato and stick it down your swim
trunks. That way the girls will think you've got something really
big and hard down there, and they'll want you."
So the nerd decides to give it a try. He struts around the beach
with a potato in his shorts, and all the girls give him weird,
disgusting looks and tell him to get the heck out of there. The
nerd can't understand what's going on, so he goes back to the
lifeguard and asks, "What am I doing wrong? You said they'd like
me if I put a potato in my shorts!"
Without even batting an eye, the lifeguard says, "You gotta put
the potato in the FRONT, kid!"
----------
Last week my wife and I purchased a new computer. We ran into some
difficulties while setting it up so we decided to call the customer
support phone number we found in the manual.
I picked up the phone and called the number. A man answered the
phone and I explained the problem to him.
He began rattling off computer jargon. This confused us even more.
"Sir," I said politely, "Can you explain what I should do as if I
were a small child?"
"Okay," the computer support guy said, "Son, could you please put
your mommy on the phone?"
----------
An airline captain was breaking in a new blonde stewardess. The
route they were flying had a stay over in another city, so upon
their arrival, the captain showed the stewardess the best place
for airline personnel to eat, shop and stay overnight.
The next morning as the pilot was preparing the crew for the day's
route, he noticed the new stewardess was missing. He knew which
room she was in at the hotel and called her up wondering what
happened to her.
She answered the phone, sobbing, and said she couldn't get out of
her room.
"You can't get out of your room?" the captain asked, "Why not?"
The stewardess replied, "There are only three doors in here," she
cried, "one is the bathroom, one is the closet, and one has a sign
on it that says, 'Do Not Disturb'!"

Just because the weather is getting a little colder doesn't
mean you should ignore your yard work. From revitalizing
your lawn to making leaves vanish, following are a few tips
that will simplify all of your out-of-doors chores.
* Eradicate weeds with a DIY potion.
Whacking weeds now prevents them from popping up in the
spring, but there's no need to resort to harmful chemicals.
Just fill a spray bottle with 3 parts white vinegar to 1
part castile soap (castile soap is an olive oil-based soap
made only from vegetable oils--no animal fats). The vinegar
kills weeds on contact while the soap helps the solution
sink down to the roots, ensuring the weeds won't grow back.
* Clear Clogged gutters with a blast of air.
Use a gutter-cleaning blower attachment which is a J-shaped
pipe that attaches to your leaf blower. Aim the curved end
over your gutter, then turn on the leaf blower. The air will
clear most debris is in seconds and it's a lot safer than
climbing on a ladder!
* Protect flower bulbs with chicken wire.
Fall is the time to plant bulbs for spring. To keep them
safe from squirrels cut 4" squares of chicken wire, cover
each bulb with soil and top it with a square. The wire's
holes will allow the plants to grow but will help stop the
critters.
* Save the rake and mow your leaves.
While it might be fun to rake up a big pile of leaves and
jump in them, raking is a back-breaking job. Skip the rake
and just mow your leaves. If there aren't too many leaves
you can skip the bag and just mulch them into the grass.
But if you do have a thick carpet of leaves the mower use
your mower bag to collect them. The chopping action of the
mower will make them much more compact and you can pack a
lot more into your lawn waste bags.
-<>-
Now that we're getting into fall our activities are changing.
Going from mowing the lawn to raking leaves and cleaning the
gutters may leave you a little stiff and sore. Thankfully a
few simple strategies can minimize those aches and pains.
* Stiff joints? Try Tumeric Extract.
Curcumin, the active ingredient in the spice tumeric, is a
centuries-old joint-pain reliever. In concentrated extract
form, it can cut stiffness by 73 percent, better than some
pain medications.
* Head hurt? Squeeze your toes.
Strange but true, a 10-minute foot massage gives you better
pain relief than rubbing your temples. That's because foot
massages slash production of pain-triggering cortisol--cutting
headache pain in half within minutes.
* Back sore? Treat it with clary sage.
Ingredients in clary sage relax tight muscles, calm
irritated pain nerves and boost blood flow to damaged
tissues. Massaging the essential oil into an achy back or
adding it to a warm bath can soothe a backache in minutes.
* Raw nose? Treat with coconut oil.
Dab a little coconut oil onto inflamed nostrils 2 or 3
times a day. Its hydrating lauric acid locks in moisture
to help repair the skin's barrier, while antibacterial and
anti-inflammatory compounds speed the healing of skin
irritated from too much tissue use.
-<>-
>'Go Green' Hints:
* Green up your grass with a beer.
There is a surprising fertilizer in your fridge. Beer!
It's packed with lawn-fortifying nutrients. Pour 1 can
of dark beer, 1/2 cup of dish soap, 1 cup of cola (non-
diet), and 1/2 cup of mouthwash into a lawn sprayer.
Attach to your garden hose and spray on your lawn. This
delivers good bacteria that green up your grass.
* Harvest time.
A lot of environmentally-minded homeowners keep a
vegetable garden. Before the first frost hits, preserve
as much of your harvest as possible. In case you haven't
heard, canning is cool again, and for good reason. Canning
provides you with fruits and vegetables during the months
when they can't be grown in your region, reducing your
reliance on produce shipped in from distant warm-weather
climates (which adds to your carbon footprint). You can
also freeze a lot of vegetables like peppers.
BONUS TIP: You can use raked leaves as mulch to protect
any perennials you have in your garden throughout the
winter. They also make a good compost!

President Donald J. Trump traveled to Pittsburgh yesterday, where he
spoke to workers in America’s booming energy sector at the Shale
Insight Conference.
The last time President Trump spoke at the conference was on the
campaign trail in 2016. Back then, American energy was under
relentless assault—not from some foreign enemy, but from our own
Federal Government. The previous Administration made it its mission
to stifle growth with crippling regulations aimed at energy
producers. These policies did nothing to advance “green energy,” but
they did cost many workers their jobs.
“I’m here with the incredible people who fuel our factories, light
up our homes, power our industries, and fill our hearts with true
American pride,” he added. “With unmatched skill, grit, and devotion,
you are making America the greatest energy superpower in the history
of the world.”

>From BizarreNews:
A Swansboro, N.C. man has been arrested and accused of
stealing a safe from a drug store.
But this guy is no Danny Ocean. Police said 22-year-old
Ryan James Mullins was dragging the safe when he was
caught after an early-morning break-in at the store.
At 7:30 a.m. a Swansboro police officer pulled out in
front of Mullins and saw in his rear view mirror that
there was something swinging behind Mullins' vehicle.
The police officer pulled over to let Mullins pass,
because why wouldn't you pass a police car when you are
dragging a safe behind your vehicle, then saw the safe
being dragged. The officer immediately pulled Mullins
over.
Mullins is charged with safecracking, breaking and
entering, larceny after breaking and entering, possession
of stolen goods, trafficking of opium or heroin and
several traffic violations.
Public Safety Chief Bob Ritchie said the safe was about
8 feet tall and about 2 feet deep and was used to hold
medications. Ritchie said investigators think Mullins
was trying to get controlled substances in the safe.

A woman is facing charges after deputies say she broke into
an occupied home in Iredell County, N.C.
The break-in happened at a home in Union Grove. The home-
owner told deputies a woman, identified as 34-year-old
Sara Noel Davis, broke into his home and began cursing at
him.
The homeowner said Davis then walked past him and took a
roll of toilet paper from his home.
When deputies got to the scene, they found Davis standing
in the victim's driveway. She was arrested and charged
with felony breaking and entering and felony larceny after
breaking and entering.
Davis was then taken before a magistrate and issued a
$7,500 bond.
*--- Teen Lives in Walmart Undetected for 4 Days ---*
A Texas teen was able to hide out in a Walmart in Corsicana
for more than half-a-week without anyone forcing him to
roll-back or roll-out. The 14-year-old was able to spend
four days in the Walmart without being detected after
building himself two hiding spaces. He put one in the baby
aisle and the other hide-out was behind stacks of paper
towels and toilet paper. "You never expect that you're at
Walmart and someone has been living there for four days.
That's crazy," Walmart customer Myrna Aguilar told CBS 11
News. The boy was able survive off of food he stole from
the store and guzzle juice via a hole he cracked in the
back wall of the drink aisle. He even had a makeshift bed
and a fish from the pet department. In order to avoid
being noticed when he was in plain sight, the boy would
change his clothes periodically. He also wore diapers to
avoid using the restroom at the store. Trash eventually
led to the boy being discovered, but he was released into
the custody of relatives and Walmart does not plan on
filing charges.
*--- Woman Kicked in Face by Giraffe ---*
A 24-year-old woman who "loves giraffes" was kicked in the
face after she entered the giraffe enclosure at the Henry
Vilas Zoo in Madison, Wis. Amanda Hall climbed into the
exhibit so she could get up close and personal with a
2-year-old giraffe named Wally. The 12-foot-tall animal
first licked Hall and then he booted her in the face. Hall
sustained non-life threatening injuries and Wally was not
harmed. "Imagine if that animal came into your house, how
would you feel about that? You would probably be nervous
and excited, so an animal is going to have a similar
experience, have a similar response. Be a little nervous
and excited and that is probably what happened in this
case," zoo curator Jeff Stafford told 27 News. Hall was
cited for harassment of zoo animals, an offense that
carries a fine of $686. Things could have been much worse
for Hall because giraffes are capable of delivering blows
that can kill lions.
*--- Man Fakes Suicide To Get Out of Engagement ---*
An English woman who was expecting to be on her honeymoon
is instead enjoying an impromptu American vacation after
her former fiance attempted to fake his own suicide to get
out of marrying her. "I'm a terrible, awful person," Tucker
Blandford, the 23-year-old former groom to be, admitted to
the Daily Mail. Blandford met his former fiancee, Alex
Lanchester, also 23, when Lanchester was studying abroad
as a film student visiting the University of Connecticut.
The two quickly became close and started dating. When
Lenchester's time in the U.S. ended, Blandford proposed to
her. As Lenchester planned for their wedding, Blandford
grew increasingly uncomfortable with the long-distance
relationship. Unable to face the pressure of committing to
Lenchester or breaking up with her, Blandford concocted a
plan to fake his own suicide. Pretending to be his father,
Blandford called Lenchester and delivered the news that he
suffered from depression and had jumped into the path of a
moving car. The grim ruse quickly unraveled when Lenchester
phoned Blandford's mother to offer her condolences. "He has
shattered my trust and I'm not sure I'll ever be in a
relationship again," Lanchester said. "All I ever did was
love him ... I've cried until I felt numb but now I'm just
really angry. I'll be spending our would-be wedding day
making new memories without him. He's a liar and a coward."
*---Chinese 'Panda' Cafe Not Quite What It Seems ---*
A pet cafe in China where the owner has dyed dogs to look
like pandas is drawing controversy. The Chinese "panda" cafe
features dogs of the Chow Chow breed, the BBC reported. The
dogs' fur has been dyed black and white to resemble giant
panda cubs. Local television footage showed six animals
that resemble the endangered species. The cafe's owner,
identified by his surname Huang, has downplayed the issue
of dyeing the fur of the animals. "While they look adorable,
dyeing the pets this way can easily hurt them," said one
commenter online. "Why did he have to treat the dogs like
that?" The panda is a protected species in China. The
animals are occasionally gifted to foreign countries as
part of China's diplomatic initiatives.

The artist tried to concentrate on his work, but the
attraction he felt for his model finally became
irresistible. He threw down his palette, took her in
his arms, and kissed her.
She pushed him away. "Maybe your other models let you
kiss them," she said, "but I'm not that kind!"
"Actually, I've never tried to kiss a model before,"
he protested.
"Really?" she said, softening. "Well, how many models
have there been?"
"Four so far," he replied, thinking back. "A jug, two

>Laugh
(by Stephen Kollock)
[Edited]
"And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear
will laugh with me." Genesis 21:6
Laughter is said to be the best medicine and in truth it is impossible
to simultaneously be sad and laugh at the same time. Go ahead and try
it. The next time you're feeling down, try laughing. You will find
that laughter is a strong medicine.
May I ask you, has God ever made you laugh? Careful how you answer.
Your first response may be "no, God has never made me laugh." Then
let me ask this, has God ever answered your prayers? Now this one
should be a little easier. Sure, He's answered our prayers. If so,
the question is, why didn't you laugh?
I like to picture wrinkled, hunched over Sarah sitting on her porch
living out her day's with still a hint of regret that she was never
blessed to be mother - the one thing she wanted above all else in
her life. I see her going to town and seeing all the moms and their
kids holding hands, walking the streets and her heart breaking at
the sight. Or maybe seeing relatives with children, watching them
grow up. Her feeling of loss grows stronger. I think I would grow
a little resentful, maybe bitter.
She has tried to live her life for God, tried to do right - well at
least most of the time, but that's a whole different story. All she
wanted was something that seemed so natural, so right and the answer
was still "no."
That would be hard to swallow. But then it happened - like in our own
life - God moves when we least expect it. When it looks like there is
no reason to hope or hang on, no reason to even try - He moves. Here
is Sarah, long since removed from the idea of being a mother and God
says "Sarah, remember that prayer you prayed years and years ago? Now
it's time."
Can't you see Sarah's face? At first, I'm sure there was shock. Did
she shake her head turn up her hearing aid and say "Now tell me that
one more time?"
Her wrinkled old face, toughened by nature and life breaks into a
smile. And then, slowly at first, it happened: laughter. Not a
little giggle, no this was full fledged, bend over laughter. It's
the kind of laughter that takes your breath and hurts your stomach.
The laughter we experience less and less as we grow up.
But why laughter? Didn't Sarah want to say "what took so long? Why
now when I'm to old to enjoy it? Where have you been?" Maybe she
did, but as far as we know she didn't say any of those things. She
laughed.
Why? I think it's because God had not forgotten her prayer. And
that deep down she believed Him and could not escape the irony of
how God makes miracles become miracles.
God could have given Sarah a child early in her life. But, would it
have meant as much? Does not Sarah need and want a child even more
now than she did back then? Is God's timing perfect? Yes. And that
made Sarah laugh.
But I think she also laughed at the love God showed. He remembered
her all the times she cried for a child, all those times she saw
others' children and hurt inside. She laughed because God did not
forget.
More than that, because He cared. Her great and mighty God had taken
note and made a special plan to grant her what she wanted, just when
she needed it most. And of course, when she least expected it.
Notice too how she laughed: "so that all who hear will laugh with
me." Have you noticed how when you see someone laughing you want to
be let in on the joke? That was Sarah's plan. She had gotten a
surprise gift - we all like surprise gifts - and wanted to share
her joy.
We should all follow her lead. The next time you have that prayer
answered that could only be from God, take a cue from Sarah: laugh.
Laugh because you have a God who does listen and who does care and
will grant your heart's desires - even if we sometimes don't really
know what that is ourselves.
Laugh because it shows people that you have what they want and what
they need: a hope in things unseen, a peace that passes
understanding, and a God of miracles who also has a great sense of
humor.

>Big in Texas
There once was a blind man who decided to visit Texas. When
he arrived on the plane, he felt the seats and said, "Wow,
these seats are big!"
The person next to him answered, "Everything is big in Texas."
When he finally arrived in Texas, he decided to visit a
restaurant. Upon arriving, he ordered a drink and got a mug
placed between his hands. He exclaimed, "Wow these mugs are big!"
The bartender replied, "Everything is big in Texas."
After a couple of drinks, the blind man asked the bartender
where the bathroom was located. The bartender replied, "Second
door to the right."
The blind man headed for the bathroom, but accidentally tripped
over and skipped the second door. Instead, he entered the third
door, which lead to the swimming pool, and he fell into the pool
by accident.
Scared to death, the blind man started shouting, "Don't flush,
don't flush!"

+---------------- Bizarre Speeding Excuses ----------------+
There aren't a whole lot of speeding excuses that are new to State
Patrol troopers. Following are several favorites that were
submitted to the Lincoln Journal Star.
* Patrol Sgt. Chuck Buckingham heard one of his favorites after
pulling over someone going more than 70 mph.
The driver claimed a grasshopper had landed on the windshield as
the couple in the car left town, so they decided to see how fast
they could go before the grasshopper blew off. During the stop,
the grasshopper was still on the car.
* Trooper Sam Winters pulled over a young man in Banner County
who explained, "Officer I have a hot date tonight in Scottsbluff,
and if you'd seen this girl, you'd be speeding too."
* Some one tried an understanding approach with Trooper Fred
Bastron. Bastron stopped a woman for speeding in a Lincoln
Continental. She explained with the car's 4.6-liter engine, it
"just wants to go and go."
Bastron said the engine was the same one his patrol car had.
"Well, you know what I'm up against then," she said.
* Lt. Howard Cofer of the State Patrol said he pulled over a
speeder doing 85 mph. The man explained he was trying to return
the car early to save $100. The fine for speeding was $100 plus
court costs.
Also, he didn't get the car back early enough.

>At the Racetrack
George went to the racetrack, bet on the ponies, and nearly lost
his shirt. He noticed this priest who stepped onto the track and
blessed the forehead of one of the horses lining up for the fourth
race. Lo and behold, this horse, a very long shot, won the race.
George was interested to see what the priest did for the next race.
As George watched, the priest stepped out onto the track as horses
lined up for the fifth race. The priest blessed the forehead of one
of the horses and George made a beeline for the window to place a
small bet on the horse. Again, the priest had blessed a long shot
and the horse won the race!
George collected his winnings and anxiously waited to see which
horse the priest bestowed his blessing on for the sixth race. The
priest showed, blessed a horse, George bet on it, and won!
As the day went on, the priest continued blessing one of the
horses, and it always came in first. George began to pull in some
serious money, and by the last race he knew his wildest dreams
were going to come true.
He made a quick stop at the ATM and withdrew every penny that he
owned. George waited for the priest's blessing that would tell him
which horse to bet on. True to his pattern, the priest stepped out
onto the track before the last race and blessed the forehead, eyes,
ears and hooves of one of the horses. George placed his bet - every
cent he owned - and watched the horse come in dead last!
George was dumbfounded. He made his way to the track, and when he
found the priest, he demanded, "What happened, Father? All day you
blessed horses and they won. The last race you bless a horse and he
loses. Now I've lost my life savings, thanks to you!"
The priest nodded wisely and said, "That's the problem with you
Protestants - you can't tell the difference between a simple
blessing and the Last Rites.

A good magician is the master of sleight of hand and distraction
while having a charismatic personality. However, a master
magician can do all of that, plus show you something you haven't
seen before. This magician may seem like the worst you've seen,
but that is all an act...

her to experience that!" -Jimmy Fallon
"There is a major scandal in the world of the Iditarod.

"Red Lobster announced today that it will start delivering
its food in New York City through a partnership with

unsubstantiated rumors about anyone unless they're very
funny." -Jimmy Kimmel
