"What would you do if a sudden storm sprang up on the starboard?" "Throw out an anchor, sir." "What would you do if another storm sprang up aft?" "Throw out another anchor, sir." "And if another terrific storm sprang up forward, what would you do?" "Throw out another anchor." "Hold on," said the Captain, "where are you getting all your anchors from?" "From the same place you're getting your storms, sir." ---------- Two drunks are walking along. One drunk says to the other, "What a beautiful night, look at the moon." The other drunk stops and looks at his drunk friend. "You're wrong, that's not the moon, that's the sun." They began to argue when they come upon another drunk. They asked, "Sir, could you please help settle our argument? Tell us what that thing is up in the sky that's shining. Is it the moon or the sun?" The third drunk looked at the sky and said, "Sorry, I don't live around here." ---------- Two drunks staggering home one night and one decides to take a shortcut through the cemetery. Half way through an apparition appears. "What's that on your back?" the ghost asks. "It's a hump" says the drunk. The ghost puts his hand on the drunk's back and the hump disappears. He races home and next night at the pub he tells his mate all about it. His mate is amazed and says he is going through the cemetery that night as he has a wooden leg and wants a proper leg. Again half way through the cemetery a ghost appears... "What's wrong with your leg?" he asks. "It's a wooden leg," says the drunk. "Have you got a Hump?" asks the ghost. "No" replies the drunk. So the ghost puts his hand on the drunk's back and says, "Here, you can have this one." ---------- Two elderly ladies meet at the launderette after not seeing one another for some time. After inquiring about each other's health one asked how the other's husband was doing. "Oh! Ted died last week. He went out to the garden to dig up a cabbage for dinner, had a heart attack and dropped down dead right there in the middle of the vegetable patch!" "Oh dear! I'm very sorry." replied her friend "What did you do?" "Opened a can of peas instead." ------- The minister asked for anyone who knew a truly perfect person to stand up. After a long pause a meek-looking fellow in the back stood. "Do you really know a perfect person?" he was asked. "Yes, Sir, I do," answered the little man. "Would you please tell the congregation who this rare perfect person is?" "Yes, Sir, my wife's first husband." ---------- It was election time and a politician decided to go out to the local reservation and try to get the Native American vote. They were all assembled in the Council Hall to hear the speech. The politician had worked up to his finale, and the crowd was getting more and more excited. "I promise better education opportunities for Native Americans!" The crowd went wild, shouting "Hoya! Hoya!" The politician was a bit puzzled by the native word, but was encouraged by their enthusiasm. "I promise gambling reforms to allow a Casino on the Reservation!" "Hoya! Hoya!" cried the crowd, stomping their feet. "I promise more social reforms and job opportunities for Native Americans!" The crowd reached a frenzied pitch shouting "Hoya! Hoya! Hoya!" After the speech, the Politician was touring the Reservation, and saw a tremendous herd of cattle. Since he was raised on a ranch, and knew a bit about cattle, he asked the Chief if he could get closer to take a look at the cattle. "Sure," the Chief said, "but be careful not to step in the hoya." ---------- A couple trying to break into society hosted an elegant and expensive dinner party. As the guests were enjoying their dinner salad, the maid called the hostess from the table. The maid informed her that the cat had climbed on the kitchen table and eaten a large portion of the salmon's mid-section. The hostess decided to fill the eaten portion with some canned salmon and other camouflage. As the guests were enjoying the fish, the maid called the hostess into the kitchen and announced while wringing her hands, "Madam, the cat is dead." The hostess and her husband informed the guests and suggested it might be best if everyone went to the hospital and had their stomachs pumped Not wishing to risk food-poisoning, all the guests rushed to the hospital emergency ward and underwent the unpleasant task of having their stomachs pumped. Returning home, the couple asked the maid where she had put the cat. "It is still out on the road where the car ran over it." ------- Little Johnny's mom was worried. She hadn't seen her elderly neighbor, Mrs. Goldbaum, in days. She asked: "Johnny, would you go next door and see how old Mrs. Goldbaum is?" A few minutes later, Johnny returned. Mom: "Well, is she all right?" Johnny: "She's fine, except that she's mad at you." Mom: "At me? Whatever for?" Johnny: "She said its none of your business how old she is." ---------- Two assassins are hired to kill a dictator in South America. They follow his every move for months, and find out that every day at noon he goes outside and does his stretching exercises. So the assassins set up shop right across the street, get all of their sights set, load the guns, and have everything ready to go. Noon comes, no dictator...10 minutes longer...no dictator One assassin turns to the other and says, "Gee, I hope nothing happened to him." ---------- On the first day of school, about midmorning, the kindergarten teacher said, "If anyone has to go to the bathroom, hold up two fingers."

I wanted to share some information about coronavirus that I received from a friend this morning. I know that not everyone is as concerned about this coronavirus situation as I am, but I have been tracking this for the past two months and witnessing how it went from unnoticeable to completely out of control in China in a matter of days. So I'm sharing this information with the hope that this would provide some guidance on self-detection and protection. I have to say that I don't know the original source of this information and no validation has been made about the effectiveness of any of the measures suggested here. However, these measures seem reasonable as general personal hygiene recommendations, even if they are not effective in protection against coronavirus. Please use your own judgement on how much you want to trust this information. I just hope that we all stay safe and healthy during this outbreak! From member of the Stanford hospital board. This is their feedback for now on Corona virus: The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can one know if he/she is infected? By the time they have fever and/or cough and go to the hospital, the lung is usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too late. Taiwan experts provide a simple self-check that we can do every morning: Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you complete it successfully without coughing, without discomfort, stiffness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no Fibrosis in the lungs, basically indicates no infection. In critical time, please self-check every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your mouth & throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 minutes at least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking water or other liquids will wash them down through your throat and into the stomach. Once there, your stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe and into the lungs. That's very dangerous. Please send and share this with family and friends. 1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold 2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose. 3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a temperature of just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun. 4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to the ground and is no longer airborne. 5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so if you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon as you can with a bacterial soap. 6. On fabric it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will kill it. 7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink liquids with ice. 8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your eyes, your nose unwittingly and so on. 9. You should also gargle as a prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm water will suffice. 10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water! THE SYMPTOMS: 1. It will first infect the throat, so you'll have a sore throat lasting 3/4 days 2. The virus then blends into a nasal fluid that enters the trachea and then the lungs, causing pneumonia. This takes about 5/6 days further. 3. With the pneumonia comes high fever and difficulty in breathing. 4. The nasal congestion is not like the normal kind. You feel like you're drowning. It's imperative you then seek immediate attention. Best regards, Yiying Xiong ( ??? ), --- ...Mostly common sense. Thanks LouiseAu! President Trump was tested Saturday and it was negative for corona.

A package of baloney is not going to turn poisonous the day after the expiration date. But some foods spoil faster than others. Milk, for example has one of the shortest shelf lives. So just how long does milk last and how can we keep it fresh longer? According to the website www.eatbydate.com, once opened, all milk lasts 4-7 days past its printed date, if refrigerated. If unopened, whole milk lasts 5-7 days, reduced-fat and skim milk last 7 days, and non-fat and lactose-free milk last 7-10 days past its printed date, if refrigerated. But there is a big difference between milk date labels that say "sell by," "use by," "best if used by," and "expires on." The phrase, "best if used by" is used to indicate quality only - even after this date, food is safe to eat. Another phrase, "expires on," is used to indicate the day that deterioration begins, after which a product may become unsafe to consume. Sell-by dates tell a milk seller, like a grocery store, when the product should leave the shelves - either in a customer's hand or in the trash. Usually, 'use by' and 'sell by' are essentially marketing terms. These allow milk producers to tell consumers when the peak freshness of the product is. They do not indicate the exact date the milk will go bad. And of course, where and how you store your milk is pivotal to its freshness. According to the FDA, if milk is left unrefrigerated for more than two hours, it's considered unsafe to consume. Believe it or not, there's even a specific location in your fridge where you should be keeping your milk. Milk should be stored at 38 to 40 degrees F in the same container it came in, and far away from the door. When milk is stored on the refrigerator door's shelves, it's being exposed to warm air each time it's opened, which encourages bacterial growth. -<>- .-""""-._.'| / '.| | / | / | -= | /| ( | |/`< ) ) ( ; -=| _| ) \ \ / ____ /) '._ _.-""-.< .' `\/) / / \ / _ .'`/| _ / | '-._( __\ (__/_/=, ( \| \ -=/ /--;==========` ._,;'\==='-,..__/__/__.' `'--/,/ || ' \ / | / || ' \ \/ . || ; jgs / / || | | . || | / '=------| / ' ; ; ;| `-.___.___.___.___._/ I've done this. You probably have too. You pull a roast, or a chicken out of the freezer thinking you'll make it the next day, and then life happens. You have to work late, your spouse orders a pizza, and now you have 3 or 4 pounds of meat you don't know what to do with. But despite what most people think, you CAN refreeze thawed meat... if you follow a couple of rules. Generally, refreezing thawed meat is not recommended. This is because the quality of the meat will be reduced in this process. Also, if the meat was not thawed in the fridge, there is a strong likelihood that bacteria has started to grow on the meat. Food Safety - According to the USDA, as long as the meat has been thawed in the fridge, the meat can be refrozen. If it was thawed on the counter, the meat is not considered safe to refreeze. Food Quality - When meat is refrozen not only is there moisture loss that contributes to dry and tough meat, but each refreeze actually changes the structure of the proteins. When you freeze the water inside of the protein cells, soluble salts are released which causes some of the proteins to shorten, causing tougher meat. A good rule of thumb is: if the partially thawed item still had ice crystals throughout, it was considered safe to refreeze, whereas an item with most all moisture fully thawed, should be used and not refrozen. But even if you have thawed your meat on the counter AND it is completely thawed with no ice crystals in it... you can still freeze it. You just have to cook it first! Once it is cooked you can freeze it again for a later date. -<>- >'Go Green' Hints: A recent study done by Harvard Law School's Food Law and Policy Clinic and the Natural Resources Defense Council exposes the truth behind expiration dates. "The dates are undefined in law and have nothing to do with safety," said Emily Broad Leib, lead author of the study. "Manufacturers are picking dates that are really protective over their brand, which is fine, it's just important for consumers to know that." The study looked at rates of waste, finding that 90 percent of consumers throw they food away on the sell by date. Leib said consumers are unaware that these dates are not necessarily linked with food safety. As a result, about 160 billion tons of food are wasted every year. "Consumers need to take that extra minute to actually look at their food and smell their food and make an assessment," Leib said. "When we just rely on these dates and throw everything away after the date, were leading to really high rates of food waste." -<>- >You can still use expired baking powder After its expiration date baking powder may not work as leavening in your recipes. It can however, be used in place of baking soda in many cases. Since baking powder is basically just baking soda with some extra leavening and reacting agents in it for cooking, when it "expires" for your baking uses, you can still use it as baking soda. It can be used as a cleaning agent for scrubbing stains in sinks and on countertops. It is good for a first aid for animal urine on a carpet or wood flooring, not only to absorb some of the urine, but to help neutralize the acidity and minimize damage to nice floor coverings. It can still be effective as an odor absorbent in your refrigerator. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER: President Trump White House Service https://tinyurl.com/vasq8f8 President Trump Addresses The Nation Regarding Coronavirus https://tinyurl.com/wqhd2oc Ivanka works from home, came in contact with official who tested positive Ivanka Trump serves as a great example for Americans in taking the appropriate precautions to remain healthy and prevent the spread of the Coronavirus.

Lori Gongaware of Chesterfield said she started collecting beaver-related items in 1996 as a joke, but it soon turned into a hobby that filled an entire room of her house. "I got everything. I got bottle openers, coffee cups, stampers, pencil sharpers and even a tattoo," Gongaware told local news. Gongaware said she is now seeking recognition from Guinness World Records, which lists the current record for beaver- related item collecting at 717. The record was set by Indiana couple William and Shirley Niese in 2015. "For my particular record they wanted a specialist witness, so the specialist witness had to be someone who knew about beavers," Gongaware said. Gongaware enlisted the help of a specialist from the Richmond Wildlife Center to verify that her collection of beaver items numbers 1,456. She said she is now waiting to hear back from the record-keeping organization. "It makes me happy, the nice thing about collecting beavers it's not like collecting teddy bears, with teddy bears there's so many of them but beavers they're so hard to find," she said. -<>- As hemp and related products like cannabis oil are becoming more and more accepted around the world, certain entrepreneurs are going to try to take advantage of all of the new interest. One such 'entrepreneur' in the U.K. might have been a little too ambitious with his cannabis oil business, and not cautious enough about the fourteen canisters of butane he was using to extract the oil. 36-year-old James Toogood of Bristol is charged with causing an explosion that destroyed two floors of an apartment building while he was allegedly making cannabis oil. Toogood was seen fleeing the burning building with his clothes on fire, a jury at Bristol Crown Court was told. Witnesses said Toogood was rolling around on the grass outside the building to put out his burning T-shirt. Fourteen butane canisters were found in the building. Another woman who was in the building escaped the fire caused by the blast by jumping from an upper-floor flat on to a trampoline. She survived. While Mr. Toogood does not deny producing cannabis oil, he said he was not doing so when the explosion happened. *---Tito's is not a good hand sanitizer ---* The Texas-based makers of Tito's Handmade Vodka issued an unusual statement in response to a customer's comment: Do not use vodka as hand sanitizer. The issue was raised when a customer said on Twitter that they had been using Tito's Handmade Vodka to make homemade hand sanitizer. "I made some hand sanitizer out your vodka. The hand sanitizer doesn't taste bad either. Cheers to Tito's vodka. Keeping me germ-free and feeling good at the same time," the customer wrote. Tito's responded with a serious statement warning other customers not to follow their example. "Per the CDC, hand sanitizer needs to contain at least 60 percent alcohol. Tito's Handmade Vodka is 40 percent alcohol, and therefore does not meet the current recommendation of the CDC," the brand tweeted. *-- Texas family victim of an unusual porch pirate --* A Texas family who suspected a porch pirate had stolen a package from their front door checked security camera footage and discovered the culprit was a thieving dog. Abby Garza, 10, said she was expecting a package at her family's Mcallen home, but she arrived to find the expected item was not at her front door. Garza's family checked the footage on their Ring doorbell camera and watched as a curious dog stood off to the side of their yard while a postal worker left the package at the door. The footage shows the canine patiently wait for the mailman to leave before making off with the package. Garza said the dog is a neighborhood stray that she dubbed Cody. The family said they have not yet been able to determine whether the canine took their pilfered packages. *--- Woman sentenced to prison for modern slavery ---* A New Jersey woman was sentenced to nearly six years in prison for forcing a Sri Lankan woman to work for her in her home without pay for nine years, the U.S. Department of Justice announced. Alia Imad Faleh Al-Hunaity, 44, was sentenced to 70 months in prison and three years of supervised release for forcing the woman into unpaid labor, causing her to overstay her visa for nine years and forcing her into marriage so she could stay in the country. Al-Hunaity was convicted on all counts against her on charges of forced labor, alien harboring for financial gain and marriage fraud. Court documents said Al-Hunaity brought the woman to the United States from Sri Lanka on a temporary visa in 2009 to perform domestic work including forcing the woman to cook and clean her homes without pay and care for her three children. *--- Employees pull 201.6-ton plane ---* A crew of British Airways employees teamed with some sports celebrities to pull a 201.6-ton plane a distance of 328 feet for a Guinness World Record. British Airways teamed with charity Sport Relief for the record attempt, which teamed the British Airways employees with sports stars including fitness coach Joe Wick, TV host and former gymnast Gabby Logan, broadcaster and former soccer star Gary Lineker, boxer Nicola Adams, sprinter Iwan Thomas and Paralympic wheelchair tennis silver medalist Alfie Hewett. The team pulled a British Airways A350 jet a distance of 328 feet, breaking a Guinness World Record. The previous heaviest aircraft pulled by a mixed team was a 198.4-ton plane. ========================================================= >-->From TheGroaner: *** *** ***....** **...*** **........** **.......** *** **..........*.........** *** **.....** **..................** **.....** **.........** **..............** **.........** *..............* *..........* *..............* **..............* *......* *..............** **..............** *....* **..............** *......................................* **..............**........**..............** **..............* *....*....*..............** *..............* *........* ...*..............* **.........** *............* ...**.........** **.....** **...............**....**.....** *** **...................**...* *** **...........*...........**...* **.........* *.........** *...*..*..*..* *......** **......* *........* ** * * ** *...* * Tomorrow, the day after today, is indeed St. Patrick's Day. This Irish celebration is more than just drinking, puking, drinking more, fighting, puking, drinking, and getting punched while puking in someone's drink. The true nature of this day goes back to when leprechauns ruled the land. They made folks eat mud, catch seagulls for fun, and swim with caraway seeds packed in their butt-cracks to ward off thieving mermaids and sexist sea monsters. You can look it up! The leprechauns lived fairly high on the hog, two and a half feet actually, and once the people of Ireland discovered their gold and magical cereal the mystical imps headed for the hills never to return. The Irish were overjoyed at the thought of never eating mud again and using caraway seeds in cakes and breads instead of keisters, as nature intended. So, every March 17th, everyone, no matter how Irish, raises a glass and toasts their brave ancestors who's run-in with those problematic pint-sized pip-squeaks resulted in the best breakfast cereal ever known and the most stylish metal upgrade for one's teeth. Trust me, they ain't teaching this stuff in school, just the new math... which I believe gnomes are responsible for. More about that on Arbor Day. Happy St. Patrick's Day, Groanies!
