They gather around the guide who says, "This is the spot where the barons forced King John to sign the Magna Carta." A man pushing his way to the front of the crowd asks, "When did that happen?" "1215," answers the guide. The man looks at his watch and says, "Shoot! Just missed it by a half hour!" -<>- >Rules 1. Never give yourself a haircut after three margaritas. 2. You need only two tools. WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape. 3. The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship: "I apologize" and "You are right." 4. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them. 5. When you make a mistake, make amends immediately. It's easier to eat crow while it's still warm. 6. The only really good advice that your mother ever gave you was, "Go! You might meet somebody!" 7. If he/she says that you are too good for him/her - believe them. 8. Learn to pick your battles; ask yourself, "Will this matter one year from now? How about one month? One week? One day?" 9. Never pass up an opportunity to pee. 10. If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance! 11. Living well really is the best revenge. Being miserable because of a bad or former relationship just might mean that the other person was right about you. 12. Work is good, but it's not that important. 13. And finally... Be really nice to your friends and family. You never know when you are going to need them to empty your bedpan. ======================================================= +------------ BIZARRE HOLIDAYS ------------+ June 10 is Ball Point Pen Day, Herb and Spices Day and Iced Tea Day June 11 is National Corn on the Cob Day June 12 is National Jerky Day, National Peanut Butter Cookie Day and Red Rose Day June 13 is National Weed Your Garden Day and Sewing Machine Day June 14 is Flag Day, Monkey Around Day and National Flip Flop Day June 15 is National Hollerin' Contest Day, National Nature Photography Day, Smile Power Day, Global Wind Day and World Juggler's Day June 16 is Father's Day and Fresh Veggies Day ======================================================= >-->From GoodCleanFun: (() ()) (() ()) (() ()) (() ()) (() .+. _.-//_\\-._ .'.-' XII '-.'. /`.'* *'.`\ / /* / *\ \ | ; _/ ; | | |IX (_) III| | | ; \ ; | \ \* \ */ / \ '.* \ *.'./ jgs '._'-.__VI_.-'_.'

She had not been in a hospital for several years and felt uneasy, not knowing about all the new technology. A technician followed her onto the elevator, wheeling a large, intimidating looking machine with tubes and wires and dials. "Boy, would I hate to be hooked up to that thing," she said. "So would I," replied the technician. "It's a floor-cleaning machine." -<>- >Get Your Sister A salesman telephoned a household and a young boy answered. "May I speak to your mother?" the salesman asked. The boy replied, "She's not here right now." The salesman then asked, "Is there anyone else there?" The boy replied, "My sister." The salesman asked, "May I speak to her"? The boy replied, "I guess so." At this point there was a long period of silence on the phone. Then the boy returned and said, "Hello?" The salesman responded, "It's you again? I thought you were going to get your sister." To which the boy replied, "I tried, but I can't get her out of the playpen!" -<>- >Zookeeper's Dilemma A zookeeper wanted to get some extra animals for his zoo, so he decided to compose a letter. The only problem was that he didn't know the plural of 'Mongoose'. He started the letter: "To whom it may concern, I need two Mongeese." No, that won't work, he thought and tried again: "To whom it may concern, I need two Mongooses." Is that right? Finally, he got an idea: "To whom it may concern, I need a Mongoose, and while you're at it, send me a second one." -<>- >Power Failure I was browsing in a souvenir shop when the man next to me struck up a conversation.

ISSEL >SMILES Most folks believe that Ben Franklin discovered electricity with his famous kite experiment. Actually, a women made that discovery possible. The real story was that Ben Franklin was laying in bed with his wife one night, leaned over and whispered something in her ear. She told him to go fly a kite. The rest is history. ---------- How long have you been driving without a tail light, mam?" the policeman asked Cathy, a blonde. Cathy jumped out, ran to the rear of her car, and gave a low moan. Her distress was so great that the cop was moved to ease up on her a bit. "Aw, come now," he said, "you don't have to take it so hard. It isn't that serious." "It isn't?" cried Cathy. "What happened to my husband's boat and trailer? ---------- Old Aunt Dora went to her doctor to see what could be done about her constipation. "It's terrible," she said, "I haven't moved my bowels in a week." "I see. Have you done anything about it?" asked the doctor. "Naturally," she replied, "I sit in the bathroom for a half-hour in the morning and again at night." "No," the doctor said, "I mean do you take anything?" "Naturally," she answered, "I take a book." ---------- "Wow, man," Timmy said. "God parted the Red Sea and let all His people through on dry ground!" "Sorry," said the biblical scholar. "But that wasn't the Red Sea; it was the Reed Sea. And its water is only about 1 foot deep. No miracle was involved." "Oh," said Timmy. Then, reading on a little more, he said, "Wow, man! What a miracle! God drowned all those Egyptians in 1 foot of water!" ------- A sweet young thing took her seat on opening day of her college class. The young man behind her tapped her on the shoulder and said, "What are you doing, wearing a football jersey?" She replied, "Why, I bought it and own it, why shouldn't I wear it?" He said, "You're not supposed to wear it unless you've made the team." "Oh," she replied sweetly, "Who did I miss?" ---------- The weather was very hot and a man wanted desperately to take a dive in a nearby lake. He didn't bring his swimming outfit, but He was all alone. So he undressed and got into the water. After some delightful minutes of cool swimming, a pair of old ladies walked onto the shore in his direction. He panicked, got out of the water and grabbed a bucket lying in the sand nearby. He held the bucket in front of his privates and sighed with relief. The ladies got nearby and looked at him. He felt awkward and wanted to move. Then one of the ladies said: 'You know , I have a special gift, I can read minds.' 'Impossible', said the embarrassed man, 'You really know what I think?' 'Yes', the lady replied, 'Right now, I bet you think that the bucket you're holding has a bottom.' ---------- A guy gets set up on a blind date and he takes her out for dinner to a very expensive restaurant to make a good impression. The waiter approaches the table and asks to take their order. The lady begins ordering practically everything on the menu, shrimp cocktail, pate, Caesar Salad, lobster, crepes Suzette, with no regard to the price. The guy is getting very upset, as he never thought she would order so much. She then stops, and looks across at him, and asks, "What do you suggest I wash it down with?" "Well my dear, I can think of nothing so fitting as the Mississippi River." ---------- Marvin was in his usual place in the morning sitting at the table, reading the paper after breakfast. He came across an article about a beautiful actress that was about to marry a football player who was known primarily for his lack of IQ and common sense. He turned to his wife with a look of question on his face.. “I’ll never understand why the biggest jerks get the most attractive wives.” His wife replies, “Why thank you, dear!”. ---------- There was a preacher that was trying to sell his horse. 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." ------- ____ / __\ |: /---) \ / ___ \:( _/ \ / /_ \ \ \ \/ \_\::) \_ \ _0""0_ / _/ \ \/= \/ =\/ / \ | (||) | / \_\______/_/ __// \\__ /__//====\\__\ _ //__//====\\__\\ _ _ //__//====\\__\\ _ _ // /( )\ \\ _ _ / /( )\ \ _ |( )| / \ / /||\ \ \:_/\_:/ S@yaN A seafood restaurant had a sign in the window that read, 'Big Lobster Tales, $5 each.' Amazed at the great value, a man stopped in and asked the waitress, 'Five dollars each for lobster tails -- is that correct?' 'Yes,' she said. 'It's our special just for today.' 'Well,' he said, 'they must be little lobster tails.' 'No,' she replied, 'it's the really big lobster.' 'Big red lobster tails, $5 each?' he said, amazed. 'They must be old lobster tails!' 'No, they're definitely today's.' 'Today's big red lobster tails -- $5 each?' he repeated, astounded. 'Yes,' she insisted. 'Well, here's my five dollars,' he said. 'I'll take one.' She took the money and led him to a table where she invited him to sit down. She then sat down next to him, put her hand on his shoulder, leaned over close to him, and said, 'Once upon a time there was a really big, red lobster...' ---------- A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles. The salesgirl notices him and asks him if she can help him. He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife. She directs him down the correct aisle. A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a ball of string on the counter. She says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?" He answers, "You see, it's like this, yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes and! she came home with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers. Because it is Soooooo much cheaper. So, I figure that if I have to roll my own, SO DOES SHE! ---------- A young American tourist goes on a guided tour of a creepy old castle. At the end of the tour, the guide asks her how she enjoyed it. She admits to being a bit worried about seeing a ghost in some of the dark, cob-web filled, rooms and passages. "Don't worry," says the guide. "I've never seen a ghost all the time I've been here." "How long is that?" asks the girl. "About three hundred years." ---------- Little Johnny was being questioned by the teacher during an arithmetic lesson. 'If you had ten dollars,' said the teacher, 'and I asked you for a loan of eight dollars, how much would you have left?' 'Ten,' said Little Johnny firmly. 'Ten?' the teacher said 'How do you make it ten?' 'Well,' replied Little Johnny 'You may ask for a loan of eight dollars, but that doesn't mean you'll get it!' ---------- A Sunday school teacher was teaching her class about the difference between right and wrong. "All right children, let's take another example," she said. "If I were to get into a man's pocket and take his billfold with all his money, what would I be?" Little Johnny raises his hand, and with a confident smile, he blurts out, "you'd be his wife!" --- ...Oh My! LOL!

I came across an article yesterday that I thought was pretty interesting so I'm sharing some of the content with you guys today. It features shower habits that you need to ditch, so get ready to turn down the water temperature and drop the shampoo. Believe it or not, some of the things you do every day while taking a shower could be affecting you in ways you've never thought of. Let's start off with reusing dirty towels. The logic seems solid: if you only use your towel when your body is clean, how could your towel possibly be dirty. This is not the case, though. It's ok to use your towel two to three times before you finally give it a wash, but this is only if you hang it up to air dry after every use. Just like your loofah, dead skin cells can clean to your towel, and there's a huge risk for bacterial growth. Using the same towel for a week or more at a time could mean putting yourself at risk for bacterial skin infections - plus, they will eventually start to smell icky bad. --- ...Really? Who reuses their bath towel Anyway??? -<>- >Washing Your Face Without a doubt, it's easier and less messy to wash your face when you're already in the shower. However, despite the convenience, it's actually not good for your face. The water that you shower in will typically be much hotter than what you'd wash with at the sink, and the high temperature can make your skin dry out very quickly. Those with skin conditions such as acne may find that washing their face with hot water can cause excessive redness and irritation - it could even burst a blood vessel in your face if you wash too aggressively. Use a gentle cleanser and avoid washing your face in the shower, particularly if you have acne-prone skin. --- ...For normal people - especially teens starting to break out: Teach them the original Noxzema clean... #1: use a wash cloth soaked with as hot as you can stand water. #2: apply fully to face to wet. No rubbing. Lightly Towel dry. #3: apply Noxzema all over face and neck avoiding eyes #4: let stand for several minutes. #5: Remove all Noxzema gently with warm water wash cloth #6: Pat face dry with clean towel. #7: Repeat daily or every other day. -<>- >Not Washing Your Feet You might be thinking that your feet make contact with plenty of water while you're in the shower, so there's no real reason to actually bend down and give them a proper wash. You'd be wrong, though. Even if you're not prone to smelly feet, think about how sweaty your feet can get throughout the day. Not only that, but if you're known to walk around the house or outdoors without socks or shoes, you never know what you might be picking up along the way. There's no excuse for just letting the soap suds run down to your toes anymore - imagine what you're bringing into your bed every night without giving those feet a good wash. -<>- Save 10% on utilities with window film You west-facing windows get the hot afternoon sun, but you can cover them with an SPF film that can lower your home's internal temperature significantly. SPF film adheres right to the window panes, and since they are clear it won't block your view, but will keep out UV rays and infrared heat. Adding these will lower the temperature in your home by 15 degrees or more and saving you 10% on cooling costs. -<>- >Conserve energy by optimiznig fans Fans can make you and a room feel up to 10 degrees cooler. While the average central air conditioner uses about 3,500 watts, a floor fan uses only 15 - 19 watts - that's just 3% of the energy of central air. Also smart: consider placing a stand-alone fan near an A/C vent to boost its range by 25%. -<>- >'Go Green' Hint: Install an evaporative cooler Evaporative or swamp coolers are either built-in or free-standing units that incorporate a fan that pulls air over cold-water soaked pads. These systems use as much as 75 percent less energy than central air conditioners and can lower the temperature by as much as 30 degrees. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: Justice With Judge Jeanine 6/8/19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bn7iDS10k1I President Trump and America Are Winners by Getting Mexico to Intensify Fight Against Illegal Immigration “Against nearly insurmountable odds, President Trump proved his critics wrong once again by getting Mexico to agree Friday to step up its efforts to reduce illegal immigration to the U.S.,” National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd writes in Fox News. “This win by our president shows he understands that politely asking other countries to change their behavior when it harms us isn’t always enough . . .

Dating 'apps' have advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that you can skip most of the social stuff. You can skip the time and effort of meeting people, skip the social rituals involved in getting to know them, and in many cases you can skip the rejection that so frequently comes with finding out that person you have been getting to know is not interested in you. The disadvantage, of course, is getting robbed in the middle of the night while you are locked in a closet with a ball gag in your mouth. That was the unfortunate fate of one New York man who was allegedly robbed by a date he met on Grindr. Police responded to a call of a home invasion robbery around 3 a.m. at the 26-year-old victim's apartment on Greenwich Street, police said. The man told police he had met his date in a section of the app called "Black Men Love Fisting," the sources said. But they got into an argument over the small size of the perp's privates - leading him to choke the victim and demand cash, the sources said. The victim told police he thought it was part of the fantasy until his man date allegedly dragged him into a closet and took $3,000. The victim reported that he tried to scream when he realized he was being robbed but couldn't because he had 'a jock strap and ball gag in his mouth', the sources said. The robber fled and the victim was treated on the scene. Cops took latex gloves, a dildo and the swing as evidence. Police canvassed the area but didn't find the attacker. -<>- (And Another Et-AHem!) We have all read those stories about some druggy who calls the police because his dealer screwed him over (or the story of the pot grower who called the police because somebody broke into his grow-house and stole a bunch of his pot plants). There was even a story about a guy who called the police because a hooker "stole" his money without providing service. But today's story is a new one on me. A Houston woman who says she is a stripper is being sued in small claims court by one of her customers. "I've never heard of a customer suing a stripper," Nomi said. "I just don't understand how this person can sue me for money that he freely gave. I would never have even taken it had I known I had to pay it back." I'm sure. Robert wouldn't say much, but confirms he met Nomi at a strip club. He says she owes him about $3,000 worth of DVDs, a laptop and cash, and he's suing to get it back. Gerald Treece, attorney and law professor at South Texas College of Law, said it comes down to whether it was all gifts. "It has no really great legal value," he said. "It was 'wow' value, and it all depends on whose facts the court believes." -<>- (More Et-Ahems!) *--- Foreplay Has Changed A Lot Since I Was Single ---* A Florida man is facing manslaughter charges after accidentally shooting a woman during a s%x act. According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, Andrew Shinault, 23, and a woman in her 20s, were "engaging in an act of foreplay involving his registered handgun." The woman was shot in the upper body. She was rushed to a local hospital where she later died. Shinault was charged with Manslaughter several days later and remains in jail on $50,000 bond. *--- 21-Year-Old Visits Every Country In The World ---* A 21-year-old American woman broke a Guinness World Record when she became the youngest person to visit all 196 sovereign nations in the world. Lexie Alford visited the North Korean side of the conference rooms in the "blue house" in the Joint Security Area on the DMZ between North and South Korea on Friday, crossing off the last country on her list. Alford said she was unable to find a way around the U.S. travel ban to North Korea, but Guinness rules allowed for the "blue house" visit to count as stepping foot on North Korean land. Alford unseated British man James Asquith, who previously held the record when he visited every country on Earth by age 24. "For Guinness, the hardest part isn't even the travel for breaking the record," Alford said in 2018, when she still had 13 nations left to visit. "The hardest part is proving it, proving that I've been to all these places. I have to get signed witness statements in each country I go to, and provide plane tickets, passport stamps, accommodation receipts, log books for every country I visit." *--- The Condiment Caper ---* A Florida Man is facing a domestic battery charge after allegedly covering his sleeping girlfriend in ketchup, court records show. Investigators say Peter Wagman, 37, and his 41-year-old girlfriend have recently "been in arguments over infidelity by the victim." The couple, who live in Pinellas Park, have been together for 11 years. At around 4:45 AM Sunday, police report, the victim awoke 'to ketchup being poured on her by' Wagman, who was yelling, "That's what you get, bitch." When police arrived at the residence, they found the woman 'covered in ketchup.' Wagman denied the condiment attack, though a patrolman noted that 'he has ketchup on the right side of his pants.' Both Wagman and his girlfriend have previously been arrested for battering each other. Wagman, who was released from the county jail, had pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor domestic battery count. *--- Ohio Town Plagued By Pink Water ---* Officials in an Ohio village said pink water coming out of residents' taps is safe for drinking, but could be damaging to clothes. Residents in Coal Grove reported the water coming out of their taps Monday morning was bright pink, leading village officials to initially warn locals not to drink the odd-colored liquid. Officials later said the pink color came from a malfunction at the water treatment center that saw a large quantity of sodium permanganate end up in the water. Stephen Burchett, the water treatment plant operator for Coal Grove, said the chemical is not dangerous if ingested, but it could dye clothes washed in affected water. The village flushed the water at the treatment plant several times and officials said the water will return to its usual trans- parent appearance once all of the pink water has been run out of the pipes. They still recommend avoiding the yellow snow. ========================================================= >-->From TheGroaner: , /\ , / '-' '-' \ | POLICE | \ .--. / | ( 19 ) | \ '--' / '--. .--' jgs \/ >Backseat Barker It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station.

The children were especially interested because they enjoyed the computer game "Oregon Trail," which gives players a taste of the hardships the pioneers endured.

Squinting out over the desolate, wind-swept landscape, my daughter nodded and said grimly, "This is where my oxen always die." -<>- At Sunday school they were teaching how God created every- thing, including human beings. Little Johnny seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was created out of one of Adam's ribs.

It's called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar." -Drew Carey "There's a new report that says more than half of American workers didn't use all their vacation days last year.

The TSA has let through pipe bombs, knives, and the last three Nicolas Cage movies." -Conan O'Brien "According to a new study, the recommendation that people need eight glasses of water per day is a myth. I think we figured that out when we never once drank eight glasses of water and still survived." -Seth Meyers "People have been selling fake parking spaces.
