*~* Happy Groundhog Day!
>From Our Friend Karen :)
>The Legend of Groundhog’s Day
On Groundhog’s Day, we follow legend
Our eyes look to the ground
For a sleepy little woodchuck
In Punxsutawney town.
If Phil, the brown haired critter
Comes out into the light
And quickly sees his shadow
He’ll bounce back out of sight.
He’ll slip into his burrow
For spring is far away
Six more weeks of winter
The price that we will pay.
But should the day be cloudy
Ole Phil will wander out
With spring around the corner
He’ll spread the news about.
Tis fun to follow legend
It brightens up our day
To think the bliss of springtime
Is not that far away.
~ Marilyn Ferguson ©2004 ~

...Groundhogs are so cute! Thank You Karen!
It was a beautiful sunny day here in Ohio. Guess what THAT meant
to a little furry rodent coming up to check out the snow covered
world from his warm and cozy little den? Yep. You guessed it! He
saw his little shadow and licity split, he was back in his warm
snug bed for another 6 weeks of winter! Argh!

>Consultant
I was on the computer in my home office when my eight-year-old son
asked what I did for a living.
"I'm a consultant," I said.
"What's a consultant?"
"It's someone who watches people work and then tells them how they
could do it better."
"We have people like that in my class," he said, "but we call them
pests."
-<>-
>Drive-Thru
Fresh from a visit to the dentist, I decided to stop at my bank.
Barely able to enunciate, I told the teller, "I'm sorry about not
speaking more clearly. I've just had novocaine."
"You should have used the drive-through," she said.
"Why?"
"Everyone who goes through, sounds like that," she explained.
-<>-
>Pain Location
The patient who came to my radiology office for abdominal X-rays was
already heavily sedated. But I still had to ask her a lot of questions,
the last one being, "Ma'am, where is your pain right now?"
Through her medicated fog, she answered, "He's at work."
-<>-
>Permission
One night about 10 pm, I answered the phone and heard, "Dad, we want to
stay out until midnight. We met a couple guys. Is that okay?"
"Sure," I answered, "as long as you called."
When I hung up, my wife asked who was on the phone.
"One of the girls," I replied. "I gave them permission to stay out
until midnight."
"Not our girls," she said. "They're both downstairs in the basement."
-<>-
>Recovering
I was recovering from knee surgery and also the extraction of impacted
wisdom teeth. I was lying on the couch with an ice bag on my leg and
hot-water bottles against both cheeks.
From the kitchen I heard my wife cry out in pain.
Through a mouth stuffed with gauze I asked her what had happened.
"You know," she replied, "there's nothing worse than a paper cut."

A blonde is terribly overweight, so her doctor puts her on a diet. "I
want you to eat regularly for two days, then skip a day, and repeat
this procedure for two weeks. The next time I see you, you'll have lost
at least five pounds." When the blonde returns, she's lost nearly 20
pounds. "Why, that's amazing!" the doctor says. "Did you follow my
instructions?" The blonde nods. "I'll tell you, though, I thought I was
going to drop dead that third day." "From hunger, you mean?" asked the
doctor. "No, from skipping."
-------------
There was a man in a mental hospital. All day he would put his ear to
the wall and listen. The doctor would watch the guy do this day after
day. So, the doctor finally decided to see what this man was listening
to, so he put his ear up to the wall and listened. He heard nothing. So
he turned the mental patient and said, "I don't hear anything!" The
mental patient replied, "Yeah, I know. It's been like that for months!"
------------
Old Aunt Dora went to her doctor to see what could be done about her
constipation. "It's terrible," she said, "I haven't moved my bowels in
a week." "I see. Have you done anything about it?" asked the doctor.
"Naturally," she replied, "I sit in the bathroom for a half-hour in the
morning and again at night." "No," the doctor said, "I mean do you take
anything?" "Naturally," she answered, "I take a book."
-------
Every day when he went to the stable to ride his horse,
John, he would call out, "Hey there, John, old buddy,
how's everything today?" before he'd bridle the horse.
One day he started the usual, "Hey there, John ..."
when, to his surprise, the horse interrupted, saying
"For months now, you've been walking in here and
saying, 'Hey there, John, old buddy, how's everything
today?' I want you to know I'm sick of it. You never
wait for an answer, and besides, my name is Randy!"
With that, the horse took off running. Shocked, the
owner took off after the horse, trying to catch it.
Seeing the pursuit, his dog joined the chase. After a
while the man, exhausted, stopped to rest at the side
of the road. He took out his handkerchief and wiped
his face as his dog, who had continued the chase, came
back, also now breathless, and sat down beside him.
The man wondered aloud, "I've never heard a horse talk
before!"
"Me neither!" said the dog.
------------
A gorgeous young redhead went into a doctor's office and said
that her body hurt wherever she touched it. "Impossible!" the
doctor said. "Show me." The redhead took her finger, pushed on
her hip and screamed. Then she pushed her elbow and screamed
in even more. She pushed her knee and screamed; likewise she
pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made
her scream. The doctor said, "You're not really a redhead,
are you? "Well, no" she said, "I'm actually a blonde."
"I thought so," the doctor said. "Your finger is broken."
-------
A farmer and his brand new bride were riding home from the chapel in a
wagon pulled by a team of horses, when the older horse stumbled. The
farmer said, "That's once."
A little further along, the poor old horse stumbled again. The
farmer said, "That's twice."
After a little, while the poor old horse stumbled again. The
farmer didn't say anything, but reached under the seat, pulled out a
shotgun and shot the horse.
His brand new bride raised all kind of hell with him, telling
him, "That was an awful thing to do."
The farmer said, "That's once."
-------
A boy, frustrated with all the rules he had to follow, asked his
father, "Dad, how soon will I be old enough to do as I please?"
The father answered immediately, "I just don't know, son. No male has
ever lived that long."
-------
A guy got on a bus one day and sat down in an aisle seat beside an
elderly lady.
A few minutes later, he couldn't control himself and let loose a big
noisy fart.
Well very embarrassed, he tried to strike up a conversation with the
lady and asked her
"Do you by any chance have today's paper?"
The lady looked at him and said,
"No, but the next time we pass by a tree I'll grab you a handful of
leaves.

I stopped by the Chevrolet Dealership yesterday for a look at the new
Silverado 1500 pickup.
Just for fun, I took it out for a test drive.
I wanted to sense that new "feel" before they become extinct.
The salesman (a man wearing an Obama "change" lapel pin) sat in
the passenger seat describing the truck and all its "wonderful"
options.
The seats were of particular interest.
He explained that the seats directed warm air to your bottom in
the winter and directed cool air there in the summer heat.
Feeling like messing with him, I mentioned that this must be a
Republican truck.
Looking a bit angry, he asked why I thought it was a Republican truck.
I explained that if it were an Obama Democratic truck, the seats
would blow smoke up yours year-round.
I had to walk back to the dealership. Darn guy had no sense of humor!

>Brilliance in Three Parts. . .
Part I .......
A. Back off and let those men who want to marry men, marry men.
B. Allow those women who want to marry women, marry women.
C. Allow those folks who want to abort their babies, abort their babies.
D. In three generations, there will be no Democrats.
I love it when a plan comes together!

Part II:
10 Poorest Cities in America and how did it happen?
City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level
1. Detroit , MI 32.5%
2. Buffalo , NY 29.9%
3. Cincinnati , OH 27.8%
4. Cleveland , OH 27.0%
5. Miami , FL 26.9%
6. St. Louis , MO 26.8%
7. El Paso , TX 26.4%
8. Milwaukee , WI 26.2%
9. Philadelphia , PA 25.1%
10. Newark , NJ 24.2%
What do the top ten cities (over 250,000) with the
highest poverty rate all have in common?
Detroit, MI (1st on the poverty rate list)
hasn't elected a Republican mayor since 1961
Buffalo, NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954
Cincinnati, OH - (3rd) since 1984
Cleveland, OH - (4th) since 1989
Miami, FL - (5th) has never had a Republican mayor
St. Louis , MO - (6th) since 1949
El Paso, TX - (7th) has never had a Republican mayor
Milwaukee, WI - (8th) since 1908
Philadelphia, PA - (9th) since 1952
Newark, NJ - (10th) since 1907
Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is
doing the same thing over and over again and
expecting different results.'
It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats ..
yet they are still POOR.
****************************
Part III:
"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's
initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they
could and should do for themselves."
~ Abraham Lincoln

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting
the government take care of him had better take a closer look
at the American Indian." ~ Henry Ford

>How many zeros in a billion? (answer: 9)
This is actually true and not funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the
word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one advertising agency did a good job of
putting that figure into some perspective in
one of it's releases.
A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E.
A billion dollars ago was only
8 hours and 20 minutes,
at the rate our government
is spending it.

>From John McCain:
Barack Obama has run our nation and our military into the ground.
His policies have spread the perception of American weakness and
fostered a disrespect for our nation and our Armed Forces. As the new
Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, I am determined to
place our nation on a stronger and more secure path.
That's why when Code Pink protesters physically threatened 91-year-old
former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in our committee hearing I
fought back, telling them, "Get out of here, you low-life scum!"
Only unpatriotic individuals would disrespect a great American public
servant in this manner - and I called them out.
I will not stand for cowards and bullies who disrespect American
Heroes. I will not stand for our nation's military to be further eroded
and our foreign policy to be one of "leading from behind."
If you agree will you add your name to my "I respect America" pledge to
show these liberal hecklers that the American people don't accept their
despicable tactics?

>From BizarreNews:
In 1957 the Russians shot a dog named Laika into space,
and ever since then rocket scientists and rednecks with
engineering degrees have been trying to send more and
more bizarre objects into the upper stratosphere.
Next month a group of Michigan rocket enthusiasts is
preparing to continue this grand tradition with a modified
porta-potty.
The group, dubbed "The Throne Thrusters," plans to launch
the portable restroom thousands of feet into the air near
Three Oaks. The group is mainly composed of members of
Michigan Rocketry, a local high-power rocketry club that
frequently launches rockets, according to Larry Kingman of
The Throne Thrusters. The project has been in the works
for about two-and-a-half years.
The group came up with the idea at a meeting, after one
member pondered the possibility of launching a porta-potty
with the right engine power, Kingman said.
"Dave McVeigh, the owner of a local retail hobby store,
pointed towards the old decrepit porta-potty bathroom
sitting nearby in the field and said, 'I'll provide the
rocket motors if anyone wants to make a rocket out of
that.' In the bat of an eye, everyone present had their
hand up in the air saying, 'Count me in!'" the group's
press release reads.
A company donated a decommissioned porta-potty to the group
for the experiment. Members of The Throne Thrusters have
equipped it with cameras, parachutes, seven motors and
measuring equipment.
The group is aiming to increase awareness of rocketry as a
hobby, as well as prove that it's possible to turn a porta-
potty into a rocket and launch it successfully.
*-- Ohio group 'clowning around for Christ' --*
BOARDMAN, Ohio (UPI) - An Ohio group called Clowns for
Christ is working to spread the Christian message with
help of puppets and balloon animals. Judy Zyvith said she
has been "clowning around for Christ" for about 17 years
with three different churches, most recently with Clowns
for Christ, a ministry of Boardman United Methodist Church.
Zyvith, who serves as the group's coordinator, told the
Youngstown Vindicator she was inspired to don her "Flowers"
clown persona by a clown ministry from Westminster College
in Pennsylvania that visited her church while she was in
college. The clowns use puppets, balloon animals and other
props to illustrate biblical stories and prayers. However,
Zyvith said they perform without makeup when ministering
to kids. "We've found many children are afraid or
intimidated by the makeup," Zyvith said. The Rev. Pamela
Buzalka said the clowns "add visual arts, which makes
the story come alive for children."
*-- Restaurant served booze to kids ages 2-8 --*
COLORADO SPRINGS (UPI) - A Colorado family said several
children ages 2-8 were mistakenly served the alcoholic
versions of drinks at a Joe's Crab Shack location. The
Montoya family said they went to the Colorado Springs
restaurant with visiting relatives and six children,
ages 2-8, ordered the alcohol-free "Shark Nibble" mixed
drinks from the menu. Family members said a waitress
came to their table about 30 minutes after the drinks
were delivered to inform the family they had mistakenly
received alcoholic "Shark Bite" drinks. One of the
children, a 2-year-old girl, had already finished her
drink, which contained Bacardi Limon rum, Skyy vodka,
blue Curacao and grenadine. The family said the children
were examined by Colorado Springs paramedics before being
sent home. Joe's Crab Shack's corporate office released a
statement in response to the incident. "Joe's Crab Shack
is aware of this incident at the Colorado Springs
Location, and we are investigating this matter internally.
We do not condone underage service of any kind. Our guests
can rest assured that our processes are continuously
examined so that incidents like this are avoided." Colorado
Springs Police said the incident is under investigation by
the department's liquor team.
*-- UPS driver threw packages, urinated on house --*
HOUSTON (UPI) - UPS officials said they have fired a
seasonal driver recorded by Houston security cameras
throwing packages over a fence and urinating on the home.
Ben Lucas said he checked his surveillance cameras after
arriving home Jan. 8 to find his packages -- .22 caliber
ammunition, chemicals and a machine for cleaning gun parts
-- were on the inside of his locked fence and appeared to
have been damaged. Lucas said the video, which he later
posted to YouTube, showed the UPS driver throw the packages
over the locked fence before unzipping the fly of his
pants and urinating on his home. "So basically I paid
someone to come to my house and pee on it," Lucas told
KPRC-TV. Lucas said he posted the video to UPS' Facebook
page when officials seemed unwilling to watch it or give
him an apology. He said the move led to a phone call from
a UPS supervisor. "She was apologetic and wants to send me
a 'we're sorry' gift," he told KHOU-TV. "That's what I
kind of wanted. I just wanted someone to say, 'yeah he
shouldn't have done that we'll try to make sure that
doesn't happen again,'" Lucas said. UPS issued a statement
saying the driver, a seasonal employee, was fired. "UPS
was dismayed by actions that violated decency and delivery
care. The local management team did take action to
terminate the individual who was a seasonal delivery
helper. However, they were wrong if they did not clarify
this resolution with Mr. Lucas at the time. UPS sincerely
apologizes to our customer. No behavior like this is
acceptable."
*-- Comcast offers apology for changing customer's name to profanity --*
A couple from Spokane, Washington discovered that after a
dispute with Comcast their billing account had been renamed
with profanity. After Ricardo and Lisa Brown argued over
their bill with a customer service representative from
Comcast things went from bad to worse. On their next
monthly bill Ricardo Brown's name had been changed to
"A**hole Brown." When the Brown's attempted to have the
profanity removed and Ricardo's name restored they were
met with opposition. The Brown's then contacted a consumer
advocacy writer, Christopher Elliott, and the incident was
reported. "You know employees talk about customers behind
their back and say things like this," Elliott told CBS
News. "But I've never seen anyone put something like this
in writing. This falls into the category of 'What were
they thinking?'" Elliot then contacted Steve Kipp,
Comcast's vice president of communications in Washington,
who said, "We have spoken with our customer and apologized
for this completely unacceptable and inappropriate name
change," he said. "We have zero tolerance for this type of
disrespectful behavior and are conducting a thorough
investigation to determine what happened. We are working
with our customer to make this right and will take
appropriate steps to prevent this from happening again."
"I'm a bit stunned by this" said Elliott. "Comcast is a
big company. They can't control all their employees. But
you'd think this is part of the basic training they give
to their employees -- don't call your customers a-holes."

I arrived home to find the place ransacked. Fortunately, my

Grabbing a golf club out of the trunk, PJ searched the house

A man went into the pet shop, "I am playing Long John Silver
in the local amateur dramatic societies version of Treasure
Island and need a parrot to sit on my shoulder," he said.
"I don't have any parrots at the moment, but you wouldn't
want a real parrot for that. It would squawk in all the
wrong places, poop on your shoulder and generally be a
nuisance. What you need is a stuffed parrot. Just as
realistic and easily controlled."
"I'm not sure a stuffed parrot would be okay," said the
customer. "I do want this performance to be as realistic
as possible."
"I am sure a stuffed parrot would be fine," said the pet
shop owner. "I have one at home. I'll bring it in and if
you come back on Thursday you can have it."
"Sorry," said the customer, "I can't make it on Thursday.

My father and I belong to the religion of Sikhism. We both
wear the traditional turban and often encounter strange
comments and questions. Once, in a restaurant, a child
stared with amazement at my father. She finally got the
courage to ask, "Are you a genie?"
Her mother, caught off guard, turned red in the face and
apologized for the remark. But my dad took no offense and
decided to humor the child.
He replied, "Why, yes I am. I can grant you three wishes."
The child's mother blurted out, "Really?"

English department collected this list of mixed metaphors and
posted them on their web site:
"He swept the rug under the carpet."
"She's burning the midnight oil at both ends."
"It was so cold last night I had to throw another blanket on
the fire."
"It's time to step up to the plate and cut the mustard."
"She's robbing Peter to pay the piper."
"He's up a tree without a paddle."
"Beware my friend...you are skating on hot water."
"Keep your ear to the grindstone."
"Sometimes you've gotta stick your neck out on a limb."

THE Honest Lawyer... Oh Yeah???
When Mr Midas was dying, he devised a plan to take some
of his fortune with him. He called the three people he
trusted the most - his priest, his doctor, and his
personal attorney. He gave them each an envelope with
$1 million in cash, and asked them to place the money in
his coffin so that he could take it with him. All three
agreed to do so. At the funeral, each in turn approached
the coffin, and placed their envelope inside.
On leaving the cemetery, the priest told the others, "I
must confess to you both that I only placed $700,000 in
the coffin. My church is in desperate need of repairs, so
I took the rest of the money to accomplish this worthy
project."
The doctor then said, "I must also confess; I took
$500,000 to purchase new medical equipment, which my
hospital badly needs to save people's lives. I am sure
that Mr Midas would have approved, if he had really
thought about it".
The attorney looked at them both sternly, and said, "You
both should be ashamed of yourselves. I followed Mr Midas'
instructions to the letter. When I put the envelope into
the coffin, it contained my personal cheque for the full
$1 million

A young girl who was writing a paper for school came to her father and
asked, "Dad, what is the difference between anger and exasperation?"
The father replied, "It is mostly a matter of degree. Let me show you
what I mean." With that the father went to the telephone an dialed a
number at random. To the man who answered the phone, he said, "Hello,
is Melvin there?"
The man answered, "There is no one living here named Melvin. Why don't
you learn to look up numbers before you dial them?"
"See," said the father to his daughter. "That man was not a bit happy
with our call. He was probably very busy with something and we annoyed
him. Now watch...." The father dialed the number again. "Hello, is
Melvin there?" asked the father.
"Now look here!" came the heated reply. "You just called this number
and I told you that there is no Melvin here! You've got a lot of nerve
calling again!" The receiver slammed down hard.
The father turned to his daughter and said, "You see, that was anger.
Now I'll show you what exasperation means." He dialed the same number,
and when a violent voice roared, "Hello!" the father calmly said,
"Hello, this is Melvin. Have there been any calls for me?"

A brunette, redhead, and a blonde went to a fitness spa

found a strange-looking woman sitting at the entrance
who said, "Welcome to the ladies room. Be sure to check
out our newest feature: a mirror which, if you look into
it and say something truthful, you will be awarded with
a wish.
But, be warned, for if you say something false, you will
be sucked into the mirror to live in a void of nothingness
for all eternity!"
The three women quickly entered and upon finding the mirror,
the brunette said, "I think I'm the most beautiful of us
three" and in an instant she was surrounded by a pile of
money.
The redhead stepped up and said "I think I'm the most
talented of us three" and she suddenly found the keys to a
brand new Lexus in her hands.
Excited over the possibility of having a wish come true,
the blonde looked into the mirror and said, "I think..." and
was promptly sucked into the mirror.

The burglar stopped dead in his tracks. Then the woman calmly

As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked the burglar,
"Why did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell a
Scripture at you."
"Scripture?" replied the burglar, "I thought she said she had an

>I Will Fly First Class, Blonde Says (News Article)
A beautiful young blonde woman boards a plane to New York
with a ticket for the economy section. She looks at the
seats in economy and then looks into the forward cabin at
the first-class seats. Seeing that the first-class seats
appear to be much larger and more comfortable, she moves
forward to the last empty one. The flight attendant checks
her ticket and tells the woman that
her seat is in economy. The blonde replies, "I'm young,
blonde and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way
to New York."
Flustered, the flight attendant goes to the pit and informs
the captain of the blonde problem.
The captain goes back and tells the woman that her
assigned seat is in economy.
Again, the blonde replies, "I'm young, blonde and beautiful,
and I'm going to sit here all the way to New York."
The captain doesn't want to cause a commotion, and so returns
to the pit to discuss the blonde problem with the co-pilot.
The co-pilot says that he has a blonde girlfriend, and that he
can take care of the problem. He then goes back and briefly
whispers something in the blonde's ear.
She immediately gets up, says "Thank you so much," hugs
the co-pilot, and rushes back to her seat in the economy section.
The pilot and flight attendant, who were watching with rapt
attention, together ask the co-pilot what he had said to the woman.
He replies, "I just told her that the first class section isn't
going to New York."
