President Donald Trump announced that Israel and the United Arab Emirates have reached a peace deal that will lead to the full normalization of diplomatic relations between the two Middle Eastern nations at White House in Washington, D.C., August 13, 2020. (Kevin Lamarque/Reuters) The UAE–Israel deal showed that the conventional wisdom was wrong. Israel and the United Arab Emirates signed a historic normalization agreement at the White House. Bahrain has now also agreed to normalize relations with Israel, a move it couldn’t have made without Saudi assent. All of this is what Joe Biden might call a BFD. When the three leaders — President Trump, Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed — were considering their handiwork over the phone, according to a senior administration official, “MBZ said, ‘Hey, 2020’s been a really tough year. This has got to be the best news of 2020.’ And the president said, ‘Yeah, what do you think, Bibi?’ And Bibi said, ‘Are you kidding me? This is the best news in the last 20 years.’ Indeed it is awesome! Like the old song goes - "give peace a chance" and they are doing just that - to the benefit of all concerned! Just another 'Praise God!' victory and a perfect 'Thank God!' for today's World Gratitude Day!

Thank You Ladies! I was going to add something concerning Pres.Trump's new 1776 private commission but I saw the snowflakes on Twitter going crazy about Trump saying, "Today, we are seeing the results of decades of left-wing indoctrination in our schools. No American student should be made to feel ashamed of their history or identity." I don't know why Trump is on Twitter - a bunch of left boneheads think he is off his rocks for thinking our youth should not feel guilty or shame for being an American - they think they need to feel bad about slavery and all the injustice that was done to natives here - like we have to wallow in self-hatred even though how great we all have it here in America compared to every other country in the world and considering we are far younger than most countries in the world. Also The fact that most of our people do better as we have a higher standard of living than most other countries do doesn't faze the snowflakes. We are evil and need to hang our head in shame - Wow - proves Trump is right about how our youth have been taught. They depict him as a KKK Nazi. How stupid. I'll share it here with you because I know you are not brainwashed! The left "["1619 Project"] rewrites American history to teach our children that we were founded on the principle of oppression, not freedom. Nothing could be further from the truth. America's founding set in motion the unstoppable chain of events that abolished slavery, secured civil rights, defeated communism and fascism, and built the most fair, equal, and prosperous nation in human history," Trump said. "The narratives about America being pushed by the far-left and being chanted in the streets bear a striking resemblance to the anti- American propaganda of our adversaries — because both groups want to see America weakened, derided, and totally diminished." https://tinyurl.com/y62qqvve These next two new pages are both from our friend LouiseAu!

Years of smoking finally caught up with my friend one morning when he keeled over at work, clutching his heart. He was rushed to a hospital and peppered with questions.

Knowing that Charles' wife was conservative when it came to spending money, my father asked, "Was it expensive?" "The boat itself wasn't so bad," Charles replied. "But the extras really hurt." "You mean things like water skis, life jackets and trailer?" my father asked. "No," our neighbor said with a sigh. "I mean the new carpet, the kitchen cabinets and the living-room furniture." -<>- >Diapers At the pediatric clinic where I work, more and more fathers come in with their children.

In primitive society, when native tribes beat the ground with clubs and yelled, it was called witchcraft; today, in civilized society, it is called golf. The man who takes up golf to get his mind off his work soon takes up work to get his mind off golf. Fairway: [faer-wai]: An unfamiliar tract of closely mown grass running directly from tee to the green. Your ball can usually be found immediately to the left or right of it.” Golf was once a rich man's sport, but now it has millions of poor players! Golf is an expensive way of playing marbles. There are three ways to lower your golf score: take lessons, practice constantly — or start cheating. Many a golfer prefers a golf cart to a caddy because it cannot count, criticize or laugh. Golf is a game in which the slowest people in the world are those in front of you, and the fastest are those behind. Golf: A five-mile walk punctuated with disappointments.

The women were arguing noisily even in the court. The judge, banging his gavel to quiet them said, "We are going to do this in an orderly manner. I can't listen to all of you at once. I'll hear the oldest first." The case was dismissed for lack of testimony. ---------- Two bats are going for their midnight feed. After an hour or so, one bat gets tired of looking and goes home with no blood. The other bat comes home with blood dripping from its mouth. The first bat says enviously, "Where did you get all that blood from?" The second bat replies, "Follow me. I'll show you." After awhile the second bat leads them to a cave. He says, "You see that wall over there?" The hungry bat excitedly says, "Yes!" Other bat says, "I didn't." ---------- Joan, a rather well-proportioned & near-sighted secretary, spent almost all of her vacation sunbathing on the roof of her hotel. She wore a bathing suit the first few days, but always removed her glasses for an even facial tan. After several days she decided that no one could see her way up there, so she slipped out of her suit for an overall tan. She'd hardly begun when she heard someone running up the stairs; she was lying on her stomach, so she just pulled a towel over her rear. "Excuse me, miss," said the flustered little assistant manager of the hotel, out of breath from running up the stairs. "The hotel doesn't mind your sunbathing on the roof, but we would very much appreciate your wearing a bathing suit as you have for the past week." "What difference does it make?" Joan asked rather calmly. "No one can see me up here, and besides, I'm covered with a towel. "Not exactly," said the embarrassed little man. "You're lying on the dining room skylight!" ---------- Adam tells Eve that he is going to search for food. When he finally returns after three days, Eve is absolutely livid. "Where have you been? What have you been doing?" Adam rattles off a few lame excuses ("Got lost." "Horse died.") before falling asleep. But he awakes with a start to find Eve poking his chest. "What are you doing?" he asks. "Counting your ribs!" she replies ---------- One day, a cat dies of natural causes and goes to heaven, where he meets the Lord Himself. The Lord says to the cat, "You lived a good life, and if there is any way I can make your stay in heaven more comfortable, please let me know." The cat thinks for a moment and says, "Lord, all my life I have lived with a poor family and had to sleep on a hard wooden floor." The Lord stops the cat and says, "Say no more," and a wonderful, fluffy pillow appears. A few days later, six mice are killed in a tragic farming accident, and all of them go to heaven. Again, the Lord is there to greet them with the same offer. The mice answer, "All our lives we have been chased. We have had to run from cats, dogs, and even women with brooms. Running, running, running; we're tired of running. Do you think we could have roller skates so that we don't have to run anymore?" The Lord says, "Say no more" and fits each mouse with beautiful new roller skates. About a week later, the Lord stops by to see the cat and finds him snoozing on the pillow. The Lord gently wakes the cat and asks him, "How are things since you got here?" The cat stretches and yawns, then replies, "It is wonderful here. Better than I could have ever expected.

Remember what Jesus said: 'Goats on the left, sheep on the right' (Matthew 25:33). Jesus also told Peter that if he wanted to catch fish do it from the right side of the boat. They did and filled the boat with fish. John 21:6 (NIV) ... He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some. WHEN they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish." Origin of Left & Right..I have often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left".

I used to think I was more of a liberal - free thinker - not a conformist to the world - type of person. Until I realized that a liberal tended to be for all things that were indeed worldly and ungodly. So once I found out I was more closely thinking like Mike Huckabee and that we shared many of the same political views, I learned what I was politically. I lean to the right as a independent Conservative. That way I am not stuck with any one party but may vote according to who is the best candidate for the job. To me that is the one who is the most Godly. After all, Father has always known what is best for this country.

There are so many ways to use apple cider vinegar we are going to continue with a few more tips today. It's effective for pretty much anything. your skin, your hair, your house, and even your pets can benefit from its qualities. Raw, organic, unfiltered, and unpasteurized, apple cider vinegar is so much more than just a salad dressing! Apple cider vinegar uses include cleaning, washing hair, preserving food and improving skin function. It can also be used in all sorts of recipes, including salad dressings, soups, sauces, hot drinks and more. Let's get to a few uses... * Some methods you can try include: - Filling a spray bottle with vinegar and water to spray on sunburned skin. - Dipping a washcloth in vinegar, wringing the cloth out, and patting it gently on the affected areas. - Taking a cool bath with diluted apple cider vinegar. Make sure the vinegar is well diluted! * It can make your hair shine It can be used as a rinse for your hair after shampooing, and it will boost your hair's body and shine. I recommend recycling an old shampoo bottle, then filling it with 1/2 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and 1 cup of cold water. Pour the solution through your hair after shampooing. Do this several times a week for dramatic results. * It's an all-natural room freshener It will clean your toilets and leave your bathroom smelling like apples! Just pour it into the toilet, and allow it to sit overnight. It can also be used in dishwashers as a substitute for dish detergent. Mix 1/2 cup with 1 cup water, and you can use this solution to clean microwaves, kitchen surfaces, windows, glasses, and mirrors, too. Remove the air-filter and rinse with water. Then add apple cider vinegar to the tank of the humidifier and let sit for 30 minutes, swishing around occasionally. Rinse and dry. -<>- ____ ___ | _ \ ___ _ _.' _ `. _ | [_) )' _ `._ _ ___ ! \ | | (_) | _ |:;.| _ <| (_) | \ | |' _ `| \| | _ | .:;| | `.[_) ) _ | \| | (_) | | | | |.',..| ':. `. /| | | | | _ | |\ | | |.' :;::' !::, `-!_| | | |\ | | | | | \ !_!.'

The Ig Nobel Prizes, given out each year by the satirical journal Annals of Improbable Research in a ceremony at Harvard University, were distributed in a virtual ceremony. The Materials Science Prize was awarded to a Kent State University team who crafted knives from their own frozen feces as a means of investigating an ethnographic account of an Inuit man who claimed to have made a knife from his own frozen poop. The Kent State team found the knives melted and deteriorated too quickly to be of much use. A group of researchers from Austria and Japan received the Acoustics Prize for putting an alligator in a helium-filled box and having it vocalize. The scientists were aiming to determine whether the vocal communications of crocodilians relate to their body size. The Ig Nobel Peace Prize went to the governments of India and Pakistan for "having their diplomats surreptitiously ring each other's doorbells in the middle of the night, and then run away before anyone had a chance to answer the door" in a reported 2018 incident. The Ig Nobel Prizes, founded in 1991 to "honor achievements that make people laugh, then think," also included awards this year for researchers who suggested narcissists can be identified by their eyebrows, a scientist whose research suggests widespread fear of spiders among entomologists and a research team who vibrated earthworms at high frequencies to detect changes in their body shapes. -<>- Authorities in California said a man who wound up in the back of a garbage truck survived by building "a coffin around himself" from trash. Yolo County Sheriff's Lt. Martin Torres said the man, whose name was not released, was searching through a Sacramento-area garbage bin for his wallet when the bin was dumped into the garbage truck. "The man said he was stuck in the truck for about an hour, but estimates show it was more like three or three and a half hours," Torres told local news. "The truck made several other pick-ups before arriving at the landfill, where the driver saw the man crawl out of his trash pile." The man used objects around him in the back of the truck to "build a coffin around himself" and keep from being crushed by the compactor. "He was lucky the truck was only half full," Torres said. "Had it been full, he would have certainly been crushed and suffocated to death." Torres said a bulldozer at the Yolo County Landfill nearly ran over the man after the truck dumped its load, but the truck driver spotted the man and alerted the bulldozer driver in time. "The driver was pretty much a hero for that," Torres said. Authorities said the man appeared to be uninjured, but complained of neck and back pain. He was taken to a hospital for an examination. "While our driver had no idea of anyone in his load, we're very glad and proud of our driver for spotting the man while dumping out his truck at the landfill," said Nick Sikich, chief operating officer of Sacramento-based Atlas Disposal. "If he hadn't, the landfill equipment could have come along and buried him. We hope the man is OK and had a speedy recovery from any injuries." *--- Prison for Millionaire welfare Fraudsters ---* A Minnesota man who collected more than $167,000 in welfare benefits while he had more than $3 million in the bank was sentenced to 21 months in prison. The court heard Colin Chisholm, 63, and his wife, Andrea, 54, collected more than $167,000 in medical and food assistance claims in the seven years leading up to March 2012 and investigators later discovered the couple had more than $3 million in the bank and lived in a $1.6 million mansion in Deephaven. The couple, who once claimed to be Scottish nobility and went by the titles "Lord and Lady Chisholm," were also found to own a luxury yacht worth millions on Lake Minnetonka. Judge Lois Conroy handed down a 21-month prison sentence despite state sentencing guidelines calling for probation. Conroy agreed with prosecutors that prison time was called for due to the severity of the welfare fraud. Chisholm was also ordered to pay $167,420 in restitution following the completion of his prison sentence. *--- Chicago Entrepreneurialism --- * Prosecutors said an alleged carjacker in Chicago contacted the vehicle's owner and offered to sell the 1998 Chevy Malibu back to her for $50. Assistant State's Attorney Erin Antonietti said Jereh Brown, 24, received a ride in the victim's car from a friend of the owner and he forced the woman out of the driver's seat while the car was stopped. Antonietti told a hearing Brown contacted the owner of the car, a 19-year-old woman, and offered to sell the 1998 Chevy Malibu back to her for $50. The woman arranged to meet with Brown and contacted police to accompany her to the chosen location, the prosecutor said. Police found Brown hiding in a closet in a home at the location of the arranged meeting just before 10 p.m. and he was arrested. Investigators found a key to the car inside the home where Brown was arrested. Brown was charged with vehicular hijacking and possession of a stolen vehicle. He was released on electronic monitoring. *--- Man boards bus wearing live snake as a mask ---* Transportation officials in a British city responded to viral photos from a municipal bus by reminding residents that snakeskin is not an acceptable material for face masks -- especially when it's still attached to a snake. The photos, snapped aboard a Manchester bus, show a man sitting aboard the vehicle with a live snake wrapped around his neck and mouth. A witness told local news the man initially appeared to be wearing "a really funky mask" until the snake started to move around. "It was definitely entertaining," she said. A Transport for Greater Manchester representative said passengers are required to wear face masks on city buses to protect from the COVID-19 pandemic. "This needn't be a surgical mask ... passengers can make their own or wear something suitable, such as a scarf or bandanna. While there is a small degree of inter- pretation that can be applied to this, we do not believe it extends to the use of snakeskin -- especially when still attached to the snake." *--- T. rex expected to fetch $8M ---* One of the most complete Tyrannosaurus rex skeletons in the world is headed for the auction block in New York and is expected to sell for between $6 million and $8 million. Auction house Christies said the T. rex skeleton, dubbed "Stan" in honor of Stan Sacrison, the amateur paleontologist who found the bones in 1987, will be auctioned as part of the 20th Century Evening Sale. The assembled Stan measures 13 feet high, 40 feet long and is composed of 188 bones, making it one of the most complete skeletons of the species in the world. Researchers at the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research in South Dakota, where Stan was studied for two decades, said the bones reveal the dinosaur suffered a broken neck during its life, causing two vertebrae to fuse together. The T. rex also suffered puncture wounds to its skull and a rib from an apparent encounter with a rival T. rex. Stan is currently on display 24 hours a day in the windows at Christie's Rockefeller Center in New York. --- ...You can read about and see 'Stan' here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_(dinosaur) ========================================================= >-->From TheGroaner: .--..-""""-..--. ///`/////////\`\\\ ||/ |///""\\\| \|| ## ( 6. 6 ) ## /_\ \ _. / /_\ _`) (`_ /` '--' `\ >Knowing Your Numbers "Sally, do you know your numbers?" the teacher asks.

Knowing my supervisor was listening close by, I tried to sound most professional. "Oh, I'm sorry," I replied. "I can't recommend any of our doctors."

Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at their "secret" base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room. The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the investigation. By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot really was lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up his airplane, gave him a terrifying "you-did-not-see-a- base" briefing, told him Vegas was that-a-way and sent him on his way. The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP's surrounded the plane...only this time there were two people in the plane. The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night." -<>- ., _ / ` ((|))))) ((/ a a ))) >) ((((._e(( ,--/ (-. / \ <\/>/| / /) Lo )| / / ) / | | / ( / | / ;/ ||( | / )|/| \ |/'/\ \_____\ The local high school has a policy that the parents must call the school if a student is to be absent for the day.

A Few years ago, my wife and I moved into a retirement development on Florida's southeast coast. We're living in the "Delray/Boca/ Boynton Golf, Spa, Bath and Tennis Club on Lake Fake-a-Hachee". There are 3,000 lakes in Florida; only three are real. Our biggest retirement concern was time management. What were we going to do all day? Let me assure you, passing the time is not a problem. Our days are eaten up by simple, daily activities. Just getting out of our car takes 15 minutes. Trying to find where we parked takes 20 minutes. It takes a half-hour in the check-out line in Wal-Mart, and 1 hour to return the item the next day. Let me take you through a typical day: We get up at 5:00 am, have a quick breakfast and join the early morning Walk-and-Fart Club. There are about 30 of us, and rain or shine, we walk around the streets, all talking at once. Every development has some late risers who stay in bed until 6:00 am. After a nimble walk, avoiding irate drivers out to make us road kill, we go back home, shower and change for the next activity. My wife goes directly to the pool for her underwater Pilates class, followed by gasping for breath and CPR. I put on my 'Ask me about my Grandchildren' T-shirt, my plaid mid-calf shorts, my black socks and sandals and go to the clubhouse lobby for a nice nap. Before we know it, it's time for lunch. We go to Costco to partake of the many tasty samples dispensed by ladies in white hair nets. All free! After a filling lunch, if we don't have any doctor appointments, we might go to the flea market to see if any new white belts have come in or to buy a Rolex watch for $2.00. We're usually back home by 2:00 pm to get ready for dinner. People start lining up for the early bird about 3:00 pm, but we get there by 3:45 because we're late eaters. The dinners are very popular because of the large portions they serve. We can take home enough food for the next day's lunch and dinner, including extra bread, crackers, packets of mustard, relish, ketchup and Splenda, along with mints. At 5:30 pm we're home, ready to watch the 6 o'clock news. By 6:30 pm we're fast asleep. Then we get up and make five or six trips to the bathroom during the night, and it's time to get up and start a new day all over again. Doctor-related activities eat up most of our retirement time. I enjoy reading old magazines in sub-zero temperatures in the waiting room, so I don't mind. Calling for test results also helps the days fly by. It takes at least a half-hour just getting through the doctor's phone menu. Then there's the hold time until we're connected to the right party. Sometimes they forget we're holding, and the whole office goes off to lunch. Should we find we still have time on our hands, volunteering provides a rewarding opportunity to help the less fortunate. Florida has the largest concentration of seniors under five feet and they need our help. I myself am a volunteer for 'The Vertically Challenged Over 80.' I coach their basketball team, The Arthritic Avengers. The hoop is only 4-1/2 feet from the floor. You should see the look of confidence on their faces when they make a slam dunk. Food shopping is a problem for short seniors, or 'bottom feeders' as we call them, because they can't reach the items on the upper shelves. There are many foods they've never tasted. After shopping, most seniors can't remember where they parked their cars and wander the parking lot for hours while their food defrosts. Lastly, it's important to choose a development with an impressive name. Italian names are very popular in Florida. They convey world travelers, uppity sophistication and wealth. Where would you rather live: Murray's Condos or the Lakes of Venice? There's no difference -- they're both owned by Murray, who happens to be a cheap b-tard. I hope this material has been of help to you future retirees. If I can be of any further assistance, please look me up when you're in Florida. I live in the Leaning Condos of Pisa in Boynton Beach. --- ...Oh Geee! Giggles! Thanks Geniann! -<>- ,-----.

I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and extensive lab tests she said I was doing fairly well for my age.

'I'm not doing drugs either!' Then she asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?' I said, 'Not much. My former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!' Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, swimming, sun bathing or bicycling?' 'No I don't,' I said. She asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars or make a lot of love?' No,' I said. She looked at me and said, 'Then why do you even care! ---- ...Oh My! HaHa!

Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?" 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes. "Mr. Barnes, are you not willing to forgive your enemies?" "I don't have any," he replied gruffly. "Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?" "Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands. "Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?"

It was shipped dry, because in dry form it weighed a lot less than when wet, but once water (at sea) hit it, not only did it become heavier, but the process of fermentation began again, of which a by-product is methane gas of course. As the stuff was stored below decks in bundles you can see what could (and did) happen. Methane began to build up below decks and the first time someone came below at night with a lantern, BOOOOM! Several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was determined just what was happening. After that, the bundles of manure were always stamped with the instruction 'Stow high in transit' on them, which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane. Thus evolved the term 'S.H.I.T ', (Stow High In Transit) which has come down through the centuries and is in use to this very day. You probably did not know the true history of this word. Neither did I. I had always thought it was a golf term. . \ | / _\|/_ .'
