>30 Ways to Simulate Being in the Navy When You're at Home
1. Lock all friends and family outside. Your only means of
communication should be with letters that your neighbors have held
for at least three weeks, discarding two of five.
_
2. Surround yourself with 200 people that |_]
you don't really know or like: people who .-|=====-.
smoke, snore like Mack trucks going uphill, | | mail |
and use foul language like a child uses ___|________|
sugar on cereal. ||
||
3. Unplug all radios and TVs to complete- || www
ly cut yourself off from the outside world. ,;, || )_(,;;;,
Have a neighbor bring you a Time, Newsweek, <_> \ || \|/ \_/
or Proceedings from five years ago to \|/ \\|| \\| |//
keep you abreast of current events. _jgs_\|//_\\|///_\V/_\|//__
4. Monitor all home appliances hourly, recording all vital
information (ie: plugged in, lights come on when doors open, etc)
O 5. Do not flush the toilet for five days to simulate
| /| the smell of 40 people using the same commode.
|_(__\
\ )\ 6. Lock the bathroom twice a day for a four hour
jgs )( /_ period.
""""""""""""""
7. Wear only military uniforms. Even though nobody cares, clean and
press one dress uniform and wear it for 20 minutes.
8. Cut your hair weekly, making it shorter each time, until you look
bald or look like you lost a fight with a demented sheep.
9. Work in 19 hour cycles, sleeping only four hours at a time, to
ensure that your body does not know or even care if it is day or
night.
_,
10. Listen to your favorite CD 6 times a day for .-'_| ,
two weeks, then play music that causes acute nausea _| (_| _|\
until you are glad to get back to your favorite CD. (_| (_|
11. Cut a twin mattress in half and enclose three sides of your bed.
Add a roof that prevents you from sitting up (about 10 inches is a
good distance) then place it on a platform that is four feet off the
floor. Place a small dead animal under the bed to simulate the smell
of your bunkmate's socks.
12. Set your alarm to go off at 10 minute intervals for the first
hour of sleep to simulate the various times the watchstanders and
night crew bump around and wake you up. Place your bed on a rocking
table to ensure you are tossed around the remaining three hours.
Make use of a custom clock that randomly simulates fire alarms,
police sirens, helicopter crash alarms, and a new wave rock band.
__.--~~.,-.__ 13. Have week old fruit and vegetables delivered
`~-._.-(`-.__`-. to your garage and wait two weeks before eating
\ `~~` them.
.--./ \
/# \ \.--. 14. Prepare all meals blindfolded using all the
\ / /# \ spices you can grope for, or none at all. Remove
jgs '--' \ / the blindfold and eat everything in three minutes.
'--'
15. Periodically, shut off all power at the main circuit breaker and
run around shouting "fire, fire, fire" and then restore power.
16. At least once a month, force the commode to overflow to simulate
a 'black water system' boo boo.
17. Buy a gas mask and smear it with rancid animal fat. Scrub the
face shield with steel wool until you can no longer see out of it.
Wear this for two hours every fifth day especially when you are in
the bathroom.
18. Study the owner's manual for all household appliances.
Routinely take an appliance apart and put it back together.
19. Remove all plants, pictures and decorations. Paint everything
gray, white, or the shade of hospital smocks.
20. Buy 50 cases of toilet paper and lock up all but two rolls.
Ensure one of these two rolls is wet all the time.
,
/( ___________ 21. Smash your forehead or shins with a
| >:===========` hammer every two days to simulate collision
)( injuries sustained onboard Navy ships.
jgs "" _ __ _ __
22. When making sandwiches, leave ( `^` )) ( `^` ))
the bread out for six days, or until it is | || | ||
hard and stale. | || | ||
jgs '-----'` '-----'`
23. Every 10 weeks, simulate a visit to
another port. Go directly to the city slums wearing your best
clothes. Find the worst looking place, and ask for the most
expensive beer that they carry. Drink as many as you can in four
hours. Take a cab home taking the longest possible route. Tip the
cabby after he charges you double because you dress funny and don't
speak right.
24. Use fresh milk for only two days after each port visit.
25. Keep the bedroom thermostat at 2 degrees C and use only a thin
blanket for warmth.
26. Ensure that the water heater is connected to a device that
provides water at a flow rate that varies from a fast drip to a weak
trickle, with the temperature alternating rapidly from 2 to 95
degrees C.
27. Use only spoons which hold a minimum of 1/2 cup at a time.
28. Repaint the interior of your home every month, whether it needs
it or not.
29. Stand outside at attention at dawn and have the poorest reader
you know read the morning paper out loud. Be sure to have him skip
over anything pertinent.
30. Every four hours, check the fluid level in your car's radiator.
Check the tire pressure and replace air lost from excessive pressure
checks. Be sure to place red tag on ignition stating "DANGER: DO NOT
OPERATE" while you perform these checks. Inform your neighbor as to
the results of these checks, have him tell you to repeat the checks
because he did not see you perform them.

>Happy Memorial Day from Trish
http://www.americangreetings.com/ecards/view.pd?i=514188732&m=2014&rr=y&source=ag999
He was getting old and paunchy
And his hair was falling fast,
And he sat around the VFW,
Telling stories of the past.
Of a war that he once fought in
And the deeds that he had done,
In his exploits with his buddies;
They were heroes, every one.
And 'tho sometimes to his neighbors
His tales became a joke,
All his buddies listened quietly
For they knew where of he spoke.
But we'll hear his tales no longer,
For ol' Bob has passed away,
And the world's a little poorer
For a Soldier died today.
He won't be mourned by many,
Just his children and his wife.
For he lived an ordinary,
Very quiet sort of life.
He held a job and raised a family,
Going quietly on his way;
And the world won't note his passing,
'Tho a Soldier died today.
When politicians leave this earth,
Their bodies lie in state,
While thousands note their passing,
And proclaim that they were great.
Papers tell of their life stories
>From the time that they were young
But the passing of a Soldier
Goes unnoticed, and unsung.
Is the greatest contribution
To the welfare of our land,
Some jerk who breaks his promise
And cons his fellow man?
Or the ordinary fellow
Who in times of war and strife,
Goes off to serve his country
And offers up his life?
The politician's stipend
And the style in which he lives,
Are often disproportionate,
To the service that he gives.
While the ordinary Soldier,
Who offered up his all,
Is paid off with a medal
And perhaps a pension, small..
It's so easy to forget them,
For it is so many times
That our Bobs and Jims and Johnnys,
Went to battle, but we know,
It is not the politicians
With their compromise and ploys,
Who won for us the freedom
That our country now enjoys.
Should you find yourself in danger,
With your enemies at hand,
Would you really want some cop-out,
With his ever waffling stand?
Or would you want a Soldier--
His home, his country, his kin,
Just a common Soldier,
Who would fight until the end.
He was just a common Soldier,
And his ranks are growing thin,
But his presence should remind us
We may need his like again.
For when countries are in conflict,
We find the Soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles
That the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor
While he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage
At the ending of his days.
Perhaps just a simple headline
In the paper that might say:
"OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING,
A SOLDIER DIED TODAY.."
Have a safe and happy holiday....
Patriotic hugs,
Trish

>groaner - church conference
Just about every denomination has an orgnaizational structure that
requires an annual meeting of some sort. For United Methodists that
meeting is General Conference.
Brother Smith, who happened to be a leader in his congregation, called
his bishop and said: "I know this weekend is General Conference but, the
49'ers are in the playoffs. Bishop, I am a long-time fan. I've just got
to watch the 49'ers game on TV."
Being a very practical man and always looking for a solution to problems
the bishop responded: "Brother, that's what Digital Video recorders are
for."
After pausing to think about the suggestion for a moment, Brother Smith
replied, "You mean I can record General Conference, and won't have to
miss the ball game after all?"

>Liber Linteus, or 101 Uses for an Egyptian Mummy
Royal burials like Tutankhamen get all the attention, but Egypt is
positively lousy with mummies. That kind of burial was restricted to the
noble or wealthy at first, but for about 2000 years starting in 1500 BC
even average Egyptians were embalmed and wrapped after death. The best
estimate is that seventy million human mummies were made, as well as a
vast number of animals—over a million of those have been discovered, let
alone made.
As common as they are they could support being a tradeable commodity,
though the obvious question to the modern mind is 'Who, apart from a
museum, would want to buy a mummy?' The answer is quite a few people,
over the last few hundred years.

>Blond Joke...
Three women go down to Mexico one night to
celebrate college graduation.
Apparently someone slipped something into
their drinks, and they woke up in jail, only to
find that they are to be executed in the
morning, though none of them can remember
what they did the night before.
The first one, a redhead, is strapped in the
electric chair and is asked if she has any last
words. She says, 'I just graduated from Trinity
Bible College and believe in the Almighty power
of God to intervene on the behalf of the innocent.'
They throw the switch and nothing happens. They
all immediately fall to the floor on their knees, beg
for forgiveness, and release her.
The second one, a brunette, is strapped in and gives
her last words... 'I just graduated from the Harvard
School of Lawanda I believe in the power of justice to
intervene on the part of the innocent.' They throw the
switch and again, nothing happens. Again they all
immediately fall to their knees, beg for forgiveness
and release her.
The last one (you knew it), a blonde, is strapped in
and says, 'Well, I'm from the University of Tennessee
and just graduated with a degree in Electrical
Engineering, and I'll tell ya right now, y'all ain't gonna
electrocute nobody if you don't plug this thing in.

Bank of America, can I help you?
Customer: Yes, I want to cancel my account. I don't want to do business
with you any longer.
The Bank: Why?
Customer: You're giving credit to illegal immigrants and I don't think
it's right. I'm taking my business elsewhere.
The Bank: Well, Mr. Customer, we don't want to see you do that, but we
can't stop you. I'll help you close the account. What is your account
number?
Customer: (gives account number)
The Bank: For security purposes and for your protection, can you please
give me the last four digits of your social security number?
Customer: No!
The Bank: Mr. Customer, I need to verify your information, but in order
to help you, I'll need verification of who you are..
Customer: Why should I give you my social security number? The reason
I'm closing my account is that your bank is issuing credit cards to
illegal immigrants who don't have social security numbers. You are
targeting that audience and want their business. Let's say I'm an
illegal immigrant and you've given me a credit card. I have a question
about it and call for assistance. You wouldn't be asking me for a Social
Security number, would you?
The Bank: No sir, I wouldn't.
Customer: Why not?
The Bank: Because you would have pressed '2' to speak in Spanish. We
don't ask for that information when calling in on the Spanish line.
If it does raise the hair on the back of your neck, then forward it to
every human in the country including every representative in Washington
, DC four times a week for a month.

Calif. College Offers Scholarship to Illegal Immigrants
A public community college in California has set up a scholarship fund
for immigrant students — including illegal immigrants. The $2,500
scholarship has sparked anger by some, including at least one lawmaker
who is threatening to cut off federal funding to the school.
Orange County's Santa Ana College says the controversial new memorial
scholarship will be funded by private donations and honors former
student Tan Ngoc Tran, a student leader and immigrant-rights activist
who transferred to Brown University before she was killed by a drunk
driver on May 15.
Students eligible for the new scholarship must have a 3.0 or higher
grade point average, demonstrate a financial need and must also be
trying to become an American citizen. Those eligible include students
holding green cards, students who have permanent residency — and
illegal, undocumented immigrants.

>From Conservative Outpost;
Spending our way to oblivion
- Drew McKissick (5/25/10)
Margaret Thatcher once said that, 'the problem with socialism is that
you eventually run out of other people's money'. One could easily add
that another problem is that the other people eventually want to get
paid back.
It's a problem that is becoming more real with each passing day. As the
interest on that borrowed money consumes more of our nation's economy,
our options and our future will be increasingly limited. The result is
a threat to our individual freedoms and economic liberty, and eventually
even our national security.
In the last fiscal year federal spending was almost twenty-five percent
of GDP, and we now have the biggest annual budget deficit since World
War II, (over one a half trillion). Annual federal government spending
in on pace to exceed forty percent of GDP within our children's
lifetimes, and our national debt, (the total of all annual deficits),
will triple by 2020.
What will our economy look like after the government raises taxes or
inflates the dollar to cover interest payments on our the debt? What
will our personal liberty or prosperity look like?
The problem, as Reagan used to say, is government. It's too big and it
spends too much, usually in the name of helping people. But does it
help anyone if their government goes broke in the process?
Join the "Stop the Spending" campaign on Conservative Outpost and speak
out to your members of Congress today!

Join the online campaign to enforce our borders and say NO to amnesty!
Obama and the Democrats in Congress continue to talk about pushing for a
"comprehensive" immigration reform bill - which means they want to offer
amnesty to illegal aliens already in our country.
They are even working to stop states like Arizona from trying to enforce
existing immigration laws! They're more interested in the votes they
can get in the future by making them legal than they are in solving our
immigration crisis and enforcing our borders.
Join our campaign and send them a message today
SIGN THE STOP AMNESTY PETITION!

Some may call this 'far-fetched thinking'; however, the FBI Statistics

...Mexico Is Us?
Gee - Why not just have open arms and let Mexico be us? Why all the
fuss about paying for them? We should just sign over our paychecks to
them! At least that seems to be the attitude of all who defend illegals
in America! Why enforce our laws? We are such racists and bad
humanitarians who even think such things!
Poppycock! They need a brain adjustment!
What part of 'This Is AMERICA Not Mexico' don't They Understand?
We help our own not those who break our laws and hurt our citizens
and our country!

>From BizarreNews:
I am the last person who thinks that the police should have
have more power. While I think cops do a hard job and they
often have to face the worst aspects in our society, I con-
sider them a necessary evil. I don't think anybody should
have the power to stop a citizen and point a gun at them,
however somebody has to deal with criminals and psychopaths,
so we reluctantly give that power to police (and other
agencies).
But it's a power they have to have. If a maniac is threatening
deadly violence, and some poor, unarmed citizen's life is
threatened, the police have to be able to use deadly force.
Unless, of course, certain members of the New York Assembly
have their way.
The "minimum force" bill, which surfaced in the Assembly last
week, seeks to amend the state penal codes' "justification"
clause that allows an officer the right to kill an assailant
if he feels his life or someone else's is in imminent danger.
The bill would force officers to use their weapons "with the
intent to stop, rather than kill" a suspect. They would be
mandated to "shoot a suspect in the arm or the leg," like
Danny Glover did in 'Lethal Weapon'.
Considering New York cops have a record of hitting their
targets only 17 percent of the time because of the incredibly
stressful circumstances surrounding a shooting, and that is
after being trained to fire at the center of their target,
restricting them to an arm or a leg prompted Vice President
Joe Biden to dub it "The John Wayne Bill" because it demands
sharp-shooting skills of the kind only seen in movies.
Fortunately it is so safe in New York that the police should
rarely have to worry about this new bill if it passes.
-- Baby born while mom drives to hospital ----------
BEMIDJI, Minn. - A Minnesota couple said their son was born
while his mother was behind the wheel of her car en route
to the hospital. Amanda McBride, 29, said she left work at
about 11:30 p.m. May 18 when she began feeling labor pains
and picked up the child's father, Joseph Phillips, 33, on
her way to North Country Regional Hospital in Bemidji, the
Bemidji Pioneer reported. McBride said she had to drive the
car because Phillips suffers seizures, but the couple said
Phillips had to grab the wheel when McBride's water broke
mid-drive. "She yelled at me to grab the wheel," Phillips
said. "And then, all of a sudden, I heard this little waaa
(cry)." The mother, who has two older sons, said the birth
was quick. "The baby just came right out," she said. "I
was just sitting on the seat and he just slid out. It
really wasn't bad at all." The family made it to the
hospital with McBride and baby still in the driver's seat
and Phillips steering from the passenger side. The baby,
Joseph Dominick Phillips, was found to be healthy and
weighed 8 pounds, doctors said.
-- Old cannonball sparks bomb squad visit ---------
ALBUQUERQUE - An Albuquerque man said police sent a bomb
squad to his house after he discovered an item given to
him by a friend years ago was likely an 1800s cannonball.
Kenny Honeycutt said he was describing the object to a
friend Friday and was told it sounded like a cannonball
from the Civil War era, leading him to call police to
ask whether it might be dangerous, KOAT-TV, Albuquerque,
reported. "My grandkids come over here and play all the
time. I thought, if this thing is dangerous I want to get
it out of there," Honeycutt said. "I had used it for a
doorstop for a while. I thought I would set it up on the
entertainment center." Police said the item was determined
to be an explosive device from the 1800s, but there was
no gunpowder inside the object so it was not considered
dangerous. Honeycutt said he does not know what he will
do with the cannonball. "It might be valuable to somebody.
Maybe I should put it on the Internet," said Honeycutt.
-- Nun stops theft with stern voice ------------
PITTSBURGH - A nun who serves as principal of a Pittsburgh
school said she stopped a thief with a single sentence:
"You need to give me what you have." Sister Lynn Rettinger,
principal of Sacred Heart Elementary School in the Shady-
side neighborhood, said preschool teacher Donna Caligiuri
called to her at about 2:05 p.m. Tuesday and said a man
had taken a wallet out of a purse in an unlocked car, the
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Thursday. Rettinger, who
was wearing white slacks and a blue jacket with her
Sisters of Charity pin, said she walked out the front door
and spoke to the man from the top of the steps. "I said to
him, 'You need to give me what you have.' That's what I
say to children if I know they have something they
shouldn't. I say, 'You need to give me what's in your
pocket,'" Rettinger said. "He gave it to me, and then he
apologized," she said. She said the man walked away calmly.
"He didn't even run," she said.
-- Man follows noisy muffler to stolen truck --------
LONGVIEW, Wash. - A Washington state man who heard someone
stealing his truck from outside his home said he followed
the sound of the muffler to pursue the thieves. Alex
Hansen, 27, said he heard the 1996 Toyota T-100 starting
at 5 a.m. Tuesday outside of his Longview home and quickly
gave chase, The (Longview) Daily News reported. "I grabbed
my girlfriend's keys. My truck's loud enough I could hear
where it was going," Hansen said. He said he spotted the
Toyota traveling together with another vehicle. "I caught
up about the time they got to Alabama," he said. "I chased
them 8 minutes or so down alleyways and streets... He just
locked the truck up, jumped out and took off running."
Hansen described the suspect who exited the truck as a
white man with a black hoodie, shorts and a backwards cap.
He said the culprits took tools, a camera, his wallet and
other valuables from the vehicle.

I met this guy the other day and I noticed he was wearing
a huge watch with all sorts of little dials on it.
"Wow," I said. "That's one hell of a watch."
"Thanks, it's a divers watch," he informed. "It's waterproof
to up to 500 meters, it won't corrode, never needs batteries
or winding...it's the best divers watch money can buy."
"Huh," I said. "You dive?"
"No," he said as a fearful look came over his face. "I hate
the water.

Sometimes I dream that I'm a teepee and sometimes I dream

Seven months pregnant, my hand on my aching back, I stood
in line at the post office for what seemed an eternity.
"Honey," said a woman behind me, "I had back pain during
my pregnancy. I was bedridden for four months because my
baby was sitting on a nerve."
The man in front of me piped up... "You'd better get used
to it now. Once those young ones get on your nerves, they
can stay there till they're 18."

A wife and husband buy a single gravestone (presumably an
act of mutual marital faith). The husband passes away
"before his time" and the wife, after a few years, falls
in love again and remarries. Where shall she be buried?
The solution was cremation. She could be cremated and put
next to both husbands, which, of course, would make her
diurnal.

Our company offers a bonus award for employee ideas that
improve safety, quality or performance. A co-worker noticed
there was a power switch suspended 16 feet over our machinery.
He suggested that a chain be attached to the switch, allowing
it to be pulled for quick shut-off in an emergency.
The suggestion went through channels and was rejected. One
reason given was that "the chain might be pushed up one day,
accidentally turning the power switch on."

A Texan and his wife were on a trip to New York. She had just
finished showering to dress for dinner and noticed that she
had neglected to pack her bras. She asked her husband to go
down to the dress shop in the lobby and pick up a couple of
36-C bras.
He said, "Ah'l go down raht now." So he put on his ten gallon
hat and went to the shop.
The saleslady said, "May I help you, sir?"
When he told her that he wanted two 36-C bras, she asked,
"Would you like two Playtex?"
He answered, "Ah'd luv ta little lady, but mah wife's a'waitin

"Yes." she replied.
"Do you read your Bible every day?"
She nodded her head, "Yes."
"Do you pray often?" Little Johnny asked next, and again she
answered, "Yes."
With that he asked his final question, "Will you hold my quarter
while I go swimming?"

>Memorial Day Thoughts
In recent years I've tried to make a conscious effort on Memorial Day to
thank people who served in the military.
My friend H.B. lost his father in early may. Like a lot of Americans of
his generation, H.B.'s father responded to the call when World War Two
broke out. He spent the last years of his life in a veteran's home.
In his note to share the death of his father with his friends, H.B.
wrote a short yet thoughtful tribute to his father. My hope is that it
will serve to remind some of you of people in your own lives who have
faithfully served their country and deserve our thanks.
As H.B. shared of his father:
"None of you had ever met my dad, but all of you knew him. You knew him
if you knew a veteran who had left part of himself on the battlefield in
service to and defense of this country. You knew him if you had a
favorite teacher that touched your life and left lasting memories. And
you knew him if you had a strong, loyal, loving father who was a quiet
but steady figure in your life and a positive influence. My dad was all
three of those things rolled up in one individual."
Take some time this Memorial Day to thank a vet and tell them you
appreciate their service to the rest of us.

>STAND THEREFORE
Preachers seldom face as large an audience as confronted
Dudley A. Tyng on a March day in 1858. More than five thousand
men were gathered in Jaynes' Hall in Philadelphia to hear the
beloved rector. At the time the city was being stirred by a great
revival.
There was a singular charm and appeal about this speaker. He
seemed to find just the right words to satisfy the soul hunger of
his listeners. He was so moving and convincing in his plea that
he drew thousands to those gatherings.
But three weeks later he was dead. The city was shocked when
it read of the accident that had claimed him as its victim. Mr. Tyng
had gone to his home at Brookfield, near Conshohocken,
Pennsylvania. Unfortunately Mr. Tyng suffered a fatal accident on
his farm.
Shortly before he passed away, he was briefly conscious. Those
by the bedside heard him whisper, "Tell them to stand up for
Jesus." Undoubtedly it was the message he wanted carried to
his friends in the minister's union who were conducting the
city-wide revival.
There was one acquaintance in particular to whom these words
came as a challenge. George Duffield, pastor of the Fifth
Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, had been the late rector's
intimate associate and close fellow worker. To him it hardly
seemed possible that one so beautiful in spirit and so dedicated
to the Master's cause could have passed so abruptly from the
scene. He began thinking that Mr. Tyng's final words should be
translated into some enduring form of memorial.
The following Sunday, when the time came for the sermon in his
own church, Mr. Duffield preached from the text in Ephesians
6:14: "Stand therefore." At the close he read a poem he had
written, "Stand Up! Stand Up for Jesus!"
Probably he never dreamed that he had written a great hymn. A
copy of the lines was given to his Sunday school superintendent,
who in turn had them printed on a special leaflet so that they
could be sung by all the children.
It could not stop there. The words seemed to fire men's souls
throughout the land. When George Duffield made a trip to the
battlefront in Virginia a few years later, he was deeply stirred as
he heard thousands of army men sing "Stand Up! Stand Up for
Jesus!"

A young banker decided to get his first tailor made suit. So he went to
the finest tailor in town and got measured for a suit. A week later he
went in for his first fitting. He put on the suit and he looked
stunning, he felt that in this suit he can do business.
As he was preening himself in front of the mirror he reached down to put
his hands in the pockets and to his surprise he noticed that there were
no pockets. He mentioned this to the tailor who asked him, "Didn't you
tell me you were a banker?"
The young man answered, "Yes, I did."
To this the tailor said, "Who ever heard of a banker with his hands in

Einstein dies and goes to heaven only to be informed that his room is
not yet ready. "I hope you will not mind waiting in a dormitory. We are
very sorry, but it's the best we can do and you will have to share the
room with others" he is told by the doorman.
Einstein says that this is no problem at all and that there is no need
to make such a great fuss. So the doorman leads him to the dorm. They
enter and Albert is introduced to all of the present inhabitants. "See,
Here is your first room mate. He has an IQ of 180!"
"That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss mathematics!"
"And here is your second room mate. His IQ is 150!"
"That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss physics!"
"And here is your third room mate. His IQ is 100!"
"That's wonderful! We can discuss the latest plays at the theater!"
Just then another man moves out to capture Albert's hand and shake it.
"I'm your last room mate and I'm sorry, but my IQ is only 80."
Albert smiles back at him and says, "So, where do you think interest
rates are headed?"

>Volume of a Cow
A mathematician, an engineer and a physicist sat around a table
discussing how to measure the volume of a cow.
The mathematician suggested the use of geometry and symmetry
relationships of the cow, but his idea was rejected on the grounds of
being too time consuming.
The engineer suggested placing the cow in a pool of water and measuring
the change in the height of the water, but his idea was rejected on the
grounds of impracticality.
"It's easy," said the physicist. "We'll make an asumption that the cow
is a small sphere, calculate the volume and then blow it up to the
actual size."

>Anger And Exasperation
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 and 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".
"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 lot of guts 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?"

At Hebrew School, the Rabbi finished the day's lesson. It was now time
for the usual question period.
"Rabbi?" asked little Melvin "there's something I need to know."
"What's that my child?" asked the Rabbi.
"Well, according to the Scriptures, the Children of Israel crossed the
Red Sea, right?"
"Right."
"And the Children of Israel beat up the Philistines, right?"
"Uh ... right."
"And the Children of Israel built the Temple, right?"
"Again you are correct."
"And the Children of Israel fought the Egyptians, and the Children of
Israel fought the Romans, and the Children of Israel were always doing
something important, right?"
"All that is correct," agreed the Rabbi. "So what's your question?"
"What I need to know is this," demanded Melvin. "What were all the
grown-ups doing?"

>-->Quotes & Thunkers:
"I have a friend whose life is so boring, he has a bumper
sticker on his car that says, 'Hit me. I need the excite-
ment.'" --Bill Jones
"Cured ham? No thanks, pal. Cured of what? What if it has
a relapse on my plate?" --Tommy Sledge
"The old man laughed loud and joyously, shook up the details
of his anatomy from head to foot, and ended by saying such
a laugh was money in a man's pocket, because it cut down the
doctor's bills like anything." --Mark Twain
"Consider this intriguing fact: Almost 50,000 people in the
United States are injured each year by pencils, pens and
other desk accessories. How do they do it? I have spent
many long hours seated at desks where I would have greeted
almost any kind of injury as a welcome diversion, but never
once have I come close to achieving actual bodily harm."
--Bill Bryson, I'M A STRANGER HERE MYSELF
"The big corporations are suddenly taking notice of the
web, and their reactions have been slow. Even the computer
industry failed to see the importance of the Internet,
but that's not saying much. Let's face it, the computer
industry failed to see that the century would end."
--Douglas Adams
"The NBA is coming out with edible basketball logos that
can be placed on a pizza. Of course, any pizza with the
Knicks logo on it has to come with a choke hazard."
- Jimmy Fallon
"Before I got married I had six theories about bringing
up children; now I have six children and no theories."
- John Wilmot
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a
profoundly sick society."
- Krishnamurti
