A potential buyer came to the church for a test ride. "Before you start," the preacher said, "you should know that this horse only responds to church talk. Go is: Praise the Lord, and Stop is: Amen." So the man on the horse says, "Praise the Lord," and the horse starts to trot. The man again says, "Praise the Lord," and the horse starts to gallop. Suddenly there is a cliff right in front of the horse and the man yells, "Amen!" The horse stops just at the edge of the cliff. The man wipes the sweat from his brow and says, "Praise the Lord!" -<>- >Alligators A blonde camper at Long Pine Key in Everglades National Park decided to take a dip in the lake with her dog, despite signs saying: "No Swimming - Alligators." She swam to an island about 75 yards from the shore, then saw some alligators and refused to swim back. "Didn't you see the signs?" asked the ranger who retrieved her in a canoe. "Sure," the blonde said. "But, I didn't think it applied to me." -<>- >Ancient Chinese Proverb An organization is like a tree full of monkeys, all on different limbs at different levels. Some monkeys are climbing up, some down. The monkeys on top look down and see a tree full of smiling faces. The monkeys on the bottom look up and see nothing but monkey hindquarters. -<>- >Canaries A lady went to a pet shop. "I would like to buy two yellow canaries," she told the owner. "We don't have any canaries, but we have these," the owner said, as he showed the lady some pale green parakeets. "That's not what I'm looking for," the lady stated. But the pet storeowner refused to give up. He said, "Just think of them as yellow canaries that aren't quite ripe yet." ============================================================== >-->From Our Friend Becky :) _ _ / )%.===.%( \ | // ,,, \\ | \/ \/6.6\/ \/ .===. /\ ( _ ) /\ / ,,, \ ^^ /()-()\ ^^ ( /6.6\ ) / /o o\ \ )( _ )( (._\ Y /_.)

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately wanted to paint another one. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make my favorite cake for me, and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life. When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew that there is a God I could always talk to, and I learned to trust in Him. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of your time and money to help people who had nothing, and I learned that those who have something should give to those who don't. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it, and I learned we have to take care of what we are given. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw how you handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good, and I learned that I would have to be responsible when I grow up. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw tears come from your eyes, and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw that you cared, and I wanted to be everything that I could be. When you thought I wasn't looking I learned most of life's lessons that I need to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up. When you thought I wasn't looking I looked at you and wanted to say, 'Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking.' I AM SENDING THIS TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW WHO DO SO MUCH FOR OTHERS, BUT THINK THAT NO ONE EVER SEES. LITTLE EYES SEE A LOT . Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher, friend) influence the life of a child... How will you touch the life of someone today? Just by sending this to someone else, you will probably make them at least think about their influence on others. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God. -<>- \\ ///// | | (| _ _ |) |` | '| | __ | >>>___/\_^__/\___<<< / ||| \ Mike Hertz >The Sack Lunches I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight. 'I'm glad I have a good book to read Perhaps I will get a short nap,' I thought. Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. I decided to start a conversation. 'Where are you headed?' I asked the soldier seated nearest to me. 'Petawawa. We'll be there for two weeks for special training, and then we're being deployed to Afghanistan' After flying for about an hour, an announcement was made that sack lunches were available for five dollars. It would be several hours before we reached the east, and I quickly decided a lunch would help pass the time.. As I reached for my wallet, I overheard soldier ask his buddy if he planned to buy lunch. 'No, that seems like a lot of money for just a sack lunch. Probably wouldn't be worth five bucks. I'll wait till we get to base ' His friend agreed. I looked around at the other soldiers. None were buying lunch. I walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant a fifty dollar bill. 'Take a lunch to all those soldiers.' She grabbed my arms and squeezed tightly. Her eyes wet with tears, she thanked me. 'My son was a soldier in Iraq ; it's almost like you are doing it for him.' Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, 'Which do you like best - beef or chicken?' 'Chicken,' I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to the front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from first class. 'This is your thanks.' After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. 'I saw what you did. I want to be part of it. Here, take this.' He handed me twenty-five dollars. Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle, looking at the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was not looking for me, but noticed he was looking at the numbers only on my side of the plane. When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, held out his hand, and said, 'I want to shake your hand.' Quickly unfastening my seatbelt I stood and took the Captain's hand. With a booming voice he said, 'I was a soldier and I was a military pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I never forgot.' I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of the passengers. Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand, wanting to shake mine.. He left another twenty-five dollars in my palm. When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a word. Another twenty-five dollars! Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five dollars. 'It will take you some time to reach the base. It will be about time for a sandwich. God Bless You.' Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of their fellow travelers. As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer for their safe return. These soldiers were giving their all for our country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little... A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.' May God give you the strength and courage to pass this along to everyone on your email buddy list....

""""""""""""""""""""""" S T A N by Matzec According to Jeff Foxworthy, You're not a kid anymore WHEN... You quit trying to hold in your stomach, no matter who walks into the room. You enjoy watching the news. The phone rings and you hope its not for you. The only reason you're still awake at 4 am is indigestion. People ask what color your hair USED to be. You're proud of your lawn mower. Your best friend is dating someone half their age AND isn't breaking any laws. You start singing along with the elevator music. You really do want a new washing machine for your birthday. Your car has four doors. You routinely check the oil in your car. You've owned clothes so long that they've come back into style--TWICE. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge. You consider coffee one of the most important things in life. 8 AM is your idea of "sleeping in". You don't remember when you got that mole...or the one next to it. You write thank you notes without being told. Neighbors borrow your tools. You answer a question with "Because I said so!" Others ask for your recipes. You start Christmas shopping in August. You paint walls for a reason other than getting your deposit back. You don't like to drive after dark. You say the words "Turn that music down!" You wear black socks with sandals. You can live without sex but not without your glasses. You point out what buildings used to be where. You know all the warning signs of a heart attack. You rake the yard without being told to. You can't remember the last time you lay on the floor to watch television. The service station attendant lets you pump your gas before paying. Now tell the truth--aren't you OLD? ========================================================== >-->Quit It From Our Friend Jo Ann :) ____________________ | | | PSYCHIATRIC | | HELP | |____________________| || ,-..'``. || || (,-..'`. ) || || )-c - `)\ || ,.,._.-.,_,.,-||,.(`.-- ,`',.-,_,||.-.,.,-,._. ___||____,`,'--._______|| |`._||______`'__________|| | || __ || | || |.-' ,|- || _,_,,..-,_| || ._)) `|- ||,.,_,_.-.,_ . `._||__________________|| ____ . . . . . <.____`> .SSt . . . . . _.()`'()`' . >It's ok to Quit....." by Motivational Speaker - Veraunda Jackson 1. Quit arguing with people about the same old foolishness! Respect their position and keep it moving! 2. Quit telling people your secrets when you know they are not going to keep them! And if you keep telling them, then quit getting mad when they tell your secrets! 3. Quit trying to pull people on your journey who don't want to travel with you. Either they believe in you and value you...or they don't! 4. Quit complaining about things you can't and won't change! (VERY IMPORTANT!) 5. Quit gossiping about other people! Minding our own business should be a full time job! 6. Quit blaming each other for things that in the big picture aren't going to matter three weeks from now!

Quit volunteering for things and then failing to follow through with your commitment! 14. Quit listening to the naysayers! Quit watching the depressing news if you are going to live in the doom and gloom of it all! 15. Quit making excuses about why you are where you are or why you can't do what you want to do! 16. Quit waiting on others to give you the answers....and start finding the answers for yourself! If what you are doing isn't working for you....then quit it! 17. Quit settling and start making your dreams a reality!- Quit being afraid and START LIVING YOUR LIFE! CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT! If you want something different than what you have had in the past...you must quit doing what you have done before and DO something different! JUST QUIT IT ......

Just so everyone has a better understanding, I believe that, in general, women are saner than men. For example: If you see people who have paid good money to stand in an outdoor stadium on a freezing December day wearing nothing on the upper halves of their bodies except paint, those people will be male. Without males, there would be no such sport as professional lawn mower racing. Also, there would be a 100 percent decline in the annual number of deaths related to efforts to shoot beer cans off of heads. Also, if women were in charge of all the world's nations, there would be no war. I sincerely believe this -- virtually no military conflicts, and if there were a military conflict, everyone involved would feel just awful and there would soon be a high-level exchange of thoughtful notes written on greeting cards with flowers on the front, followed by a Peace Luncheon (which would be salads, with the dressing on the side). So, I sincerely believe that women are wiser than men, with the exception of one key area, and that area is clothing sizes. In this particular area, women are insane. When a man shops for clothes, his primary objective is to purchase clothes that fit on his particular body. A man will try on a pair of pants, and if those pants are too small, he'll try on a larger pair, and when he finds a pair that fits, he buys them. Most men do not spend a lot of time fretting about the size of their pants. Many men wear jeans with the size printed right on the back label, so that if you're standing behind a man in a supermarket line, you can read his waist and inseam size. A man could have, say, a 52-inch waist and a 30-inch inseam, and his label will proudly display this information, which is basically the same thing as having a sign that says: "Howdy! My rear is the size of a Federal Express truck!" The situation is very different with women. When a woman shops for clothes, her primary objective is NOT to find clothes that fit her particular body. She would like for that to be the case, but her primary objective is to purchase clothes that are the size she wore when she was 19-years-old. This will be some arbitrary number such as "8" or "10." Don't ask me "8" or "10" of what; that question has baffled scientists for centuries. All I know is that if a woman was a size 8 at age 19, she wants to be a size 8 now, and if a size 8 outfit does not fit her, she will not move on to a larger size: She can't! Her size is 8! So she will keep on trying on size 8 items, and unless they start fitting her, she will become extremely unhappy. She may take this unhappiness out on her husband, who is waiting patiently in the mall, perhaps browsing in the Sharper Image store, trying to think of how he could justify purchasing a pair of night-vision binoculars. "Hi!" he'll says, when his wife finds him, "You know how sometimes the electricity goes out at night and..." "Am I fat?" she'll ask, cutting him off. This is a very bad situation for the man, because if he answers "yes," she'll be angry because he's saying that she's fat, and if he answers "no," she'll be angry because HE'S OBVIOUSLY LYING BECAUSE NONE OF THE SIZE 8's FIT HER. There is no escape for the husband. I think a lot of unexplained disappearances occur because guys in malls see their wives unsuccessfully trying on outfits, and they realize their lives will be easier if, before their wives come out and demand to know whether they're fat, the guys just run off and join a UFO cult. Here's how you could get rich: Start a women's clothing store called "SIZE 2," in which all garments, including those that were originally intended to be restaurant awnings, had labels with the words "SIZE 2." I'll bet you'd sell clothes like crazy. You'd probably get rich, and you could retire, maybe take up some philanthropic activity to benefit humanity. ================================================================ >-->From Our Friend Viv :) \\\ ____ ________``` \ =|- [________] \ | =| | _ | | \ __ ejm |__=|- O--(_) `.______.' \ O=======(__) /|\ (/(|(\ >50 Things to Make with a Jar of Pasta Sauce 1.)

The Nuts and Flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow. The cost is $100.00 per scoop. When purchased it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the Ice Cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you.

C by Toni Kryszak Does anyone remember the song, Norwegian Wood? Well, if you do, sing or hum along with these substitute words. "I once had a bird or should I say he once had me?" I will relate my story and let you decide who had who. For years we had a male cardinal and his mate visit our bird feeder. When they came over to feed, I would talk to them and call him Mr. C and her Mrs. C. I don't know how long it took but he became so tame that he actually came to our wooden fence or a nearby tree when I called him. Our friends would marvel at how he would come when he was summoned. I'd just go out in the yard and yell "Mr. C" and he would come flying from somewhere to about six feet from where I was. I had to prove it a lot because people just wouldn't believe it. He'd come flying from across the street or the neighbor's yard. When Mr. C was on the ground feeding and I'd put my dog out, he would just hop under a nearby shrub. He was a brave little thing and he would fight all the sparrows for his sunflower seeds. I had always been told cardinals were very timid but not him! He would sit on our wooden fence or outside on the crabapple tree near our kitchen window and chirp until I would come out to feed him. e would also chase the other birds from the bird feeder. He felt that was his special domain -- and it was! Sometimes I would imitate his chirps back to him and actually I had gotten rather good at it. He would chirp three chirps then I would do three. When he'd do four chirps, I would do four. This always continued for several minutes when we'd use this unusual type of communication between us. Such a lover was our Mr. C. He used to feed his wife sometimes and that was always great to watch. The interaction between the two was very sweet. The pair had their nest built in our pine tree and we would see both parents coming and going feeding their offspring. Once in a while, we would see a baby cardinal come sit on the ground. It was cute to watch Baby C. on the ground wiggling his body with excitement waiting for his parents to feed him birdseed. Then, in about a week, he or she was gone. Oh, but Mr. C was a delight. Not only would he come when he was called, but he would sit in the tree and watch for our sliding door to open. Then he would come and either sing or chirp depending if he was hungry or not. One time he even flew from tree to tree following me in the yard. What a character! Mrs. C, on the other hand, was very timid and would only come after she was sure it was safe. They both had been around for years (and I wish I kept track of how long) to the point that they started to gray around the beak feathers. Then one day, something very strange took place. I saw Mr. C. with another male cardinal. They would fly from here to there. Where the first one would go, the second would follow. It was odd because I never had seen another male cardinal in the yard, except the babies. I saw Mr. C. once more two days later, and then Junior took over and I never saw Mr. C or his mate again. I think they went to the Rainbow Bridge and officially gave Junior the yard. Now Junior and his wife are the resident cardinals. They feed at least twice a day at our bird feeder, and once in a Blue Moon (or should I say Red Cardinal Moon?) we are privileged to see some of their offspring being fed by mom and dad. I still think about Mr. C and I miss him. I think he was one of a kind. But my original question remains, did I have him or did he have me? -- Toni Kryszak ____________________________________________ Toni says, "I live with my husband and Cocker Spaniel, Max, in Warren, Michigan.
