He entered the store, went up to the counter, and handed one of the bogus bills to the man behind the counter. "Could you change this for me, please?" The store clerk looked at the bill for a few seconds then smiled at the man. "Of course I can. Would you prefer two $9 bills or three $6 bills?" -<>- >Counting Recently, while we were eating lunch after church one Sunday, my youngest son asked me what the highest number I had ever counted up to was. I said I didn't know. Then I asked him how high he had counted. "5,372," came the prompt reply. "Oh," I said. "Why did you stop there?" "The sermon was over." -<>- >Speak Now At a wedding ceremony, the pastor asked if anyone had anything to say concerning the union of the bride and groom. Everything quickly turned to chaos when a woman carrying a child started walking towards the front. Everybody was surprised, shocked, and the bride even fainted. The pastor asked the woman if she had anything to say. The woman replied, "We can't hear in the back." -<>- Wife's Diary vs Husband's Diary WIFE'S DIARY: Tonight I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong. He said, "Nothing." I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior I don't know why he didn't reply, "I love you, too." When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep; I cried. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster. HUSBAND'S DIARY: A four putt! Who FOUR putts? Arrrgghh. -<>- >Dangerous Dog Upon entering the little country store, the stranger noticed a sign saying DANGER! BEWARE OF DOG! posted on the glass door. Inside he noticed a harmless old hound dog asleep on the floor beside the cash register. He asked the store manager, "Is THAT the dog folks are supposed to beware of?" "Yep, that's him," he replied. The stranger couldn't help but be amused. "That certainly doesn't look like a dangerous dog to me. Why in the world would you post that sign?" "Because", the owner replied, "before I posted that sign, people kept tripping over him." ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend LouiseAu :) __________ __,___/ ",", ___.--" "\'. ____/ l \ ",'-, ------f" // \\\ \ (l\ \ \ \ \", | ||| / u | \ \ \ | ||| _ ) / | | \ ----L_-XXX-. .|' / U < | | | "\ -<_____/// \ 6 ) | | | \___) -" '. -.<" / / | |'.___ | _._." / | ./ _."." _." / |"----" _." jjs \ >SMILES A man walked into work on Monday, with 2 black eyes, His boss asked him what happened. The man said: I was sitting behind a big lady in the Church ,when we stood up to sing the hymens, I noticed That her dress caught in her crack, so I pulled it out, She turned around and punched me square in my eye. The boss asked where did u get the other shiner? The man said: well, I figured she didn't like it out, So I pushed it back in. ---------- A mother took her daughter Carlene, who was not yet old enough to read, to the eye doctor for a check-up. The doctor used pictures to help determine how well Carlene was seeing. He showed Carlene a picture of a horse and asked, "How many legs does this horse have?" Instead of saying the expected answer of "four," Carlene answered, "Same as any other horse!" ---------- The young wife hasn't spoken to her husband since the baby was born, all because of a little misunderstanding... She called him at work and said her water had broken, and he called the plumber. ---------- There was a woman who spent some months serving God in Kenya. On her final visit to a remote township she attended a medical clinic. As the Maasai women there began to sing together, she found herself deeply moved by their hauntingly beautiful harmonies. She wanted to always remember this moment and try to share it with friends when she arrived home. With tears flowing down her cheeks, she turned to her friend and asked, "Can you please tell me the translation of the words to this song?" Her friend looked at her an solemnly replied, "If you boil the water, you won't get dysentery." ---------- Due to inherit a fortune when his sickly, widower father died, Charles decided he needed a woman to enjoy it with. Going to a singles' bar, he spotted a woman whose beauty took his breath away. "I'm just an ordinary man," he said, walking up to her, "but in just a week or two, my father will die and I'll inherit 20 million dollars." The woman went home with Charles, and the next day she became his stepmother. (When will guys EVER learn!) --- ...Oh My! HaHa!

Most libraries now buy memberships to popular subscription sites. So you would be able to research family history at ancestory.com or learn spanish at mangolanguages.com. Many libraries try to make reading more fun by offering complimentary book club kits, which would include 8 - 15 copies of the book you choose, plus a discussion guide. Most libraries have expanded their career services to include resume-writing software, expert assistance with applications, and workshops. To find out if your library offers any of the above simply visit the front desk of your local library. -<>- To help your clothes stay stain-free, it's a good idea to keep clean your iron every few months. Make sure your iron is cold before cleaning and unplugged. Make a past of 1 tbs. water and 2 tbs. baking soda, then use a spatula to spread the paste on to the plate of the iron. Let it sit for 5 - 10 minutes, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. -<>- Need unsalted nuts for a recipe, but only have salted ones?

If your shower curtain is fabric or decorative, wash following the instructions on its care label, or pop it into the dryer on air or fluff with a fabric softener sheet to freshen. -<>- >'Go Green' Hints: | | / | / .~^(,&|/o. |`-------^| \ / `=======' ejm98 Ditch disposable bowls... ...and plates, and knives, and forks. While the temptation of having nothing to wash up after a meal is hard to resist, increasing the pile of garbage left after dinner is no way to help the planet. Following this advice is important for all the reasons it's important to use cloth napkins over paper ones, and besides: the less you throw away, the less you spend. ---- Grow your own food It's nowhere near as complicated or time-consuming as it sounds, and it'll eliminate the Sasquatch-sized carbon footprint of all those refrigerated trucks and planes importing berries from South America. Cherry tomatoes, salad greens, and green beans are the best foods to grow if saving money is the goal. For those of us who don't have a garden, simply growing herbs on a windowsill can save hundreds in the long run. ---- Do you have old T-shirts and socks? Do you wonder what you'll do with those tattered sheets and towels? Turn them into rags, and leave your paper towels in the dust. I find that cloth absorbs spills better than paper, anyways; and not only does this give you a use for otherwise useless items, you'll save a bountiful bundle on cleaning supplies. ---- Turn off the tap It's an all-too-common habit to leave the tap running while washing your face, brushing your teeth, doing the dishes, and so on. Sure, the tap might get a little soapy if you turn it off while lathering your hands, but think of it like turning off a light when it;s not being used - it's simple, brings no inconvenience, and saves a lot of resources in the long run. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: Justice With Judge Jeanine 4/6/19 [FULL] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVs3X_qiqdk Watters' World 4/7/19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBtk8wVNDT0 President Trump To Skip Correspondents Dinner To Do This Instead https://tinyurl.com/y4la99uu GOP Senate Concerned About Deep State Corruption https://tinyurl.com/y6sxh9xl Ocasio-Cortez Pulls a Hillary, gets laughed at like crazy https://tinyurl.com/y4a5ctot U.S. Jobs Grew by 196,000 in March as Hiring Bounces Back -The Wall Street Journal https://tinyurl.com/yxmk57qy Unemployment rate for women is lowest since 1953 https://tinyurl.com/y4twn3xm Latest Attack in Mexico Shows Depth of Border Crisis https://tinyurl.com/yxw2plna Border Shock: 50% Surge in Gang Members, 650,000 Illegal Immigrants Will Be Freed into US in 2019 -Washington Examiner https://tinyurl.com/y555ceau Democrats Need to Help Fix the Border Crisis or Get Out of Trump’s Way -New York Post https://tinyurl.com/y4nt3fep It hasn’t taken long for Ocasio-Cortez to go from American politician to full blown conspiracy theorist https://tinyurl.com/y229uadf Trump Makes April - First Step Act Month, Aiming to Boost Prisoner Rehabilitation Efforts https://tinyurl.com/y4supz8w Westwing News: How President Trump’s Border Policies Are Boosting Wage Growth https://www.whitehouse.gov/westwingreads/ WhiteHouseNews: https://www.whitehouse.gov/1600daily/ Latest From AFA: http://tinyurl.com/j7lakqw Students For Life https://tinyurl.com/yd5nxmu6 Latest From OperationRescue: http://www.operationrescue.org/ Latest Product Alert: Sandwiches, Soup, Pet Food http://www.emergencyemail.org/products/?fmt=text Latest Health Alert: http://www.emergencyemail.org/health/?fmt=text -<>- >From BizarreNews: There was a reason the British Navy used to give their sailors daily rations of rum; a mildly inebriated sailor is much more willing to put a cutlass between his teeth and risk his life boarding an enemy ship for bloody hand-to-hand combat. That is one of the side-effects of alcohol (some people would call it a benefit), a lowering of inhibitions and frequently common sense. That's why it is called 'liquid courage'. So it should be no surprise that when two Arkansas men came up with a brilliant idea to test out their bulletproof vest, they had already been drinking for hours. And I'll give you a hint: they didn't test it by wrapping it around a tree trunk. Charles Ferris, 50, and Christopher Hicks, 36, were drinking on the back deck of Ferris's residence when they came up the bright idea to shoot themselves. Ferris, who was wearing a bulletproof vest (not entirely unusual attire for Arkansas), told Hicks to shoot him, according to an affidavit. Hicks obliged, firing a single round from a .22 caliber rifle into Ferris's chest. While the vest stopped the bullet, Ferris was left with a painful welt on his chest. Hicks then donned the vest. Ferris, who would later tell cops that he was "pissed" about being shot, confessed that he "unloaded the clip" into Hicks's back. None of the five rounds penetrated the protective vest, investigators noted, but Hicks "was bruised from them hitting him." When Ferris subsequently sought medical treatment for the shooting injury, hospital workers summoned police. Both men were subsequently arrested in connection with the aggravated assault, according to police. -<>- All this time you thought Gotham City was in New Jersey. It turns out it is in British Columbia, Canada. That was where the caped crusader was last sighted, attempting to render aid to a police call. The action was caught by a bystander who caught video of the incident. Melissa Parent said she was driving home Saturday evening when a police car pulled out in front of her and blocked the intersection. After several more police cars showed up to the area, Batman suddenly appeared on the scene. "He was followed by five more police cars, so we pulled over at a safe distance to see what was going on. Before we knew it, the cops had their guns drawn and Batman came out of nowhere, parked in front of us in his black Dodge truck covered in the Batman logo and sprung into action," said Parent. As it turned out, police were responding to a domestic incident and likely didn't need his help. Upon approaching the armed officers during the incident to offer them assistance, cops assured him that they "had it under control." The realistic-looking crime fighter seen walking back across the street to his car. A police spokesman told local media, "Situations like this are dynamic and subject to change very quickly: the presence of 'Batman' or anyone else is an unwanted distraction and foolish as they are placing themselves at risk." Head over to the Bizarre News Facebook to see a pic of the elusive caped crusader. *--- Who Is Buying All of These Tarantulas? ---* Philippine authorities said Wednesday they cracked open a gift-wrapped package shipped from Poland to discover 757 tarantulas crammed into plastic containers. The illicit payload found at a mail facility near Manila's airport was the latest seizure in a nation that is a major source and transit point of wildlife trafficking. Customs thought the package suspicious and after opening it found boxes for cookies, oatmeal and tea. Yet the cartons contained dozens of plastic containers packed with arachnids. The seized tarantulas -- priced at about $5,700 -- are frequently sold to hobbyists as pets. Matreo said two people who tried to claim the package were detained on charges of violating wildlife protection and customs laws. The seizure comes about a month after authorities said they had seized about 1,500 exotic turtles, some of which were restrained with duct tape, crammed into a passenger's bag at Manila airport. *--- That's One Way to Lose Weight ---* A couple weeks ago I told you about an Ohio man who decided to imitate the monks 400 years ago and consume nothing but beer (and water) during the entire 40 days of Lent. Well, with just a couple weeks to go, Del Hall has now lost more than 33 pounds. Hall says he is following the lead of monks in the 1600s, who would fast during the season by a bock beer diet. "That would be their liquid bread, and basically it would sustain them through 46 days of Lent." Hall says he will have an assortment of beer for breakfast, lunch and dinner. "Weirdest thing is my dreams, I have been dreaming about food every night," Hall said. He will also be documenting his Lent beer diet on social media and will be tracking his weight. (An ET-Ahem! - Throwing Woman With Modesty out the window!) *--- The Biggest Boobs You've Ever Seen ---* How do you promote acceptance of breastfeeding in public? If you're a Londoner you do it by displaying giant, inflatable boobs around the city. And I mean GIANT. They are 20 feet tall and come complete with giant, erect nipples. And no, it's not an April Fools joke. Elvie, a tech firm specializing in products for London, put the boobs in place as part of their #FreeTheFeed campaign to empower women to feel safe and comfortable breastfeeding or pumping anytime, anywhere and encourage the British public to support them. Tania Boler, CEO of Elvie said: "The #FreetheFeed campaign is an invitation to everyone to stand with all those women that have felt shamed or confined when breastfeeding or pumping. We know the giant boobs will raise a few eyebrows, but we want to make sure no one overlooks the way that this stigma has been used to repress women." The boobs are scattered throughout London and will remain in place for several days, provoking conversation and stimulating thousands of adolescent boys. *--- The Old 'Explosives Under the Toilet Seat' Gag ---* If the New Jersey firefighter who rigged a firehouse toilet seat with firecrackers expected his victim to say, 'You nearly blew off one of my testicles? Ha! That's a good one,' he was sorely mistaken. Firefighter Thomas Wengerter admitted to placing firecrackers under the toilet seat as a prank, but when Raymond Johns sat down he wasn't amused. Johns said he, "heard and felt an explosion beneath him." Afterward he discovered he was bleeding from the left side of his scrotum and a blood blister had formed. Later, Wengerter denied he was the one who placed the firecracker on the toilet, but that didn't stop Johns from suing him for the injuries he suffered. His complaint was dismissed when a trial judge ruled that Johns couldn't sue his fellow firefighter over the incident because the injury was covered under the Workers' Compensation Act. ========================================================= >-->From TheGroaner: _________ |~~ | | ==== | | ==== | |_________|ldb >A Joke That Doesn't Deliver Bob: Want to hear a joke about the letter with no stamp?

What are you thinking about? 2. Do you love me? 3. Do I look fat? 4. Do you think she is prettier than me? 5. What would you do if I died? What makes these questions so difficult is that each one is guaranteed to explode into a major argument if the man answers incorrectly ( i.e. tells the truth). Therefore, as a public service, each question is analyzed below, along with possible responses. Question # 1: What are you thinking about? The proper answer to this, of course, is: "I'm sorry if I've been pensive, dear. I was just reflecting on what a warm, wonderful, thoughtful, caring, intelligent woman you are, and how lucky I am to have met you." This response obviously bears no resemblance to the true answer, which most likely is one of the following: a. Baseball. b. Football. c. How fat you are. d. How much prettier she is than you. e. How I would spend the insurance money if you died. (Perhaps the best response to this question was offered by Al Bundy, who once told Peg, "If I wanted you to know what I was thinking, I would be talking to you!") Question # 2: Do you love me? The proper response is: "YES!" or, if you feel a more detailed answer is in order, "Yes, dear." Inappropriate responses include: a. Oh Yeah, tons. b. Would it make you feel better if I said yes? c. That depends on what you mean by love. d. Does it matter? e. Who, me? Question # 3: Do I look fat? The correct answer is an emphatic: "Of course not!" Among the incorrect answers are: a. Compared to what? b. I wouldn't call you fat, but you're not exactly thin. c. A little extra weight looks good on you. d. I've seen fatter. e. Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died. Question # 4: Do you think she's prettier than me? Once again, the proper response is always: "Of course not!" Incorrect responses include: a. Yes, but you have a better personality. b. Not prettier, but definitely thinner. c. Not as pretty as you when you were her age. d. Define pretty.. e. Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died. Question# 5: What would you do if I died? A definite no-win question. (The real answer, of course, is "Buy a Corvette!") ========================================================= >-->From ScreamOfTheCrop: : ;; / | / | .' : .-' ' _.-' / .-*" / _ .-' .' _.-*?' .' .' .-" .' __ .' , .-' .-+. .' _.-*".' / \ .-' _.--**""**-. .-' _.y-:-" .' : `+. .*""*. `. :-. -. \ .' ; .--*""*--. / __ ` _.--. \ |$| -.` -.;/ _.-+. : .' :*" "*..*" y`-' $| ;*" _( \ / +----/ / .'.-'---+ .-._.+' `. -'_.--. :- "_( `*-: | \/\/\/ | /) ` .'___ ' "_( ; `._| | \ )` .'.' `./_" ( : \| GARAGE | (`._..--**" : .- ; `"' \ | | `----**"T"" " `+. | `. | S A L E ! ! | ' .' : _.-*"*- | | / / ' .-*" _ | | __..-'\ / bug "+,'___..--| |--**"" `-.__.' "" +----------------+ >Garage Sales So that you'll never be tempted to participate in a "neighborhood garage sale," allow me to explain how they go: Friday night you're up until two in the morning marking prices on all the junk you're hoping people will buy. At this point you're almost psychotically optimistic, calculating the total value of your "inventory" at slightly over twenty-two thousand dollars. In particular, you're hoping to rid yourself of a hideous lamp constructed from a stars-and-stripes motorcycle helmet like the one Peter Fonda wore in Easy Rider, and you give it a bargain price of $22. Last year's tag is still clinging to the chin strap; it reads $18. The garage sale is scheduled to begin at 9:00am. At 6:30 a woman awakens you by pounding on your door. "I like to get an early start," she dimples. When you open the garage door to let her in, there are seven cars in your driveway. By 11:30 all you've sold is a T-shirt for ten cents. Worse, your daughter borrowed twenty bucks so she could go shopping at the neighbors' garage sales. You mark the motorcycle helmet lamp down to $18. At noon you leave the operation in your son's hands and go inside to get some lunch. A stranger is in your bathroom, trying on clothes. Another wants to know if you have "any more cake." When you return to the garage, you find your son ecstatic because he has sold a whole set of garden tools-shovel, axe, rake, spade--for fifty cents each. You sadly advise him that they weren't for sale in the first place. "I wondered why there were no price tags," he replies. You look around. "Where's my new bicycle?" you gasp, horrified. Your son tells you one of the neighbor kids is out taking it for a "test drive." A little later one of your neighbors shows up to see how you're doing. "Hey, this Easy Rider lamp is a hoot!" he chuckles. "How much?" "Since you're a friend, twenty-five bucks," you gush."The tag says eighteen," he points out."Okay, eighteen." "I'll give you seventy-five cents." "Sold!" It's the high point of the day. Around one there's another rush: Word has gotten out you're selling garden tools for half a buck each. "I'll give you a dollar for your lawnmower," one shopper suggests. You ask him to leave. A woman picking through the books you're selling wants to know if you have anything by Carl Hiassen. When you tell her no, she asks if she can "look inside." You ask her to leave. When you step into the house a few minutes later, your son is showing your ties to the man who ate all your cake. "Why don't you check out some of the other sales," you suggest to both of them. Your neighbor calls. "My wife says I can't keep this lamp," he reports. "I'll have to bring it back." "All sales are final," you snap. "Come on, Bruce," he whines. "You can keep the money." "If you set foot in my driveway, I'll call the police," you warn. You observe a young man slinking over to the collection of National Geographics you've priced at a dime apiece. He looks a little like a thief, and you wonder how fast he's going to be able to run with eighty pounds of magazines under each arm. "This is my first garage sale, and I'm a little nervous," he informs you. "That's okay." "I heard on the radio about this guy who bought what looked like a worthless rock collection, and in it was a sapphire worth two million dollars," he remarks. "Oh?" you say politely. "You got anything like that?" At 6:00pm the sale is over. It's difficult to calculate your take for the day because at some point you apparently sold the cash box. The thought of re-stocking all your stuff back inside the house is too fatiguing, and you begin transferring it directly to the trash can. Your son bursts in, effusive over some of the great stuff he's bought. "Look Dad, only three bucks! Now we have a matched set!" he trumpets, flourishing his prize. It is, of course, the motorcycle helmet lamp. -<>- A local grade school class in Washington D.C. made a field trip to the F.B.I. Headquarters. Their host was a Special Agent and the two-hour tour ended at the gallery containing photos of the Ten Most Wanted criminals.

One of the children said, "If you wanted them so bad, why didn't you keep them when you took their picture?" -<>- __---__ ______ / ___\_ o O O _( )__ /====(_____\___---_ o _( )_ | \ (_ AI-YA!!!! ) | |@ (_ Shot _) \ ___ / (__ Again!__) \ __----____--_\____(____\_____/ (______) ==|__----____--______| / / \____/)_ / ______) / | | | _| | ______\______________|______ / * * \ /_____________*____*___________\ / * * \ /________________________________\ / * \ /__________________________________\ | | |________________________| | | |________________________| unknown (after W< ) Now that another New Year has started, it's time to revisit where we were a century ago. This ought to boggle your mind! * 1902 * The year is 1902, one hundred years ago... what a difference a century makes. Here are the U.S. statistics for 1902.... The average life expectancy in the US was 47. Only 14 Percent of the homes in the US had a bathtub. Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone. A 3-min.call Denver to NYC cost $11. There were only 8,000 cars in the US and only 144 miles of paved roads. The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph. Alabama, Mississippi, Iowa, and Tennessee were each more heavily populated than California. With a mere 1.4 million residents, California was only the 21st most populous state in the Union. The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower. The average wage in the US was 22 cents an hour. The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year. A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year. More than 95 percent of all births in the US took place at home. Ninety percent of all US physicians had no college education. Instead, they attended medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press and by the government as "substandard." Sugar cost four cents a pound. Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen. Coffee cost fifteen cents a pound. The five leading causes of death in the US were: 1. Pneumonia and influenza 2. Tuberculosis 3. Diarrhea 4. Heart disease 5. Stroke The American flag had 45 stars. Arizona, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Hawaii and Alaska hadn't been admitted to the Union yet. The population of Las Vegas, Nevada was 30. Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and iced tea hadn't been invented. There were no Mother's Day or Father's Day. One in ten US adults couldn't read or write. Only 16 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school. There were only about 230 reported murders in the entire US. ========================================================= >-->FUN Places To Net Visit Doggy Road Trip! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/dogcar.html Cool Optical illusions 3 http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/optical3.html Bird Sculpture Art! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/birdart.html Dog Rescue Stories http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/dogrescues.html Bird Inspirations http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/birdinspirations.html Wood Chip Art! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/woodart.html Identity Theft 4! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/identitytheft4.html Falkland Islands Babies! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/falklandislands.html Funny Animal Facts! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/zoo2.html Beaker The Duck! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/beakertheduck.html Great Horned Owls! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/owl.html Best Of National Geographic! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/bestnatgeo.html Cute Australian Wildlife! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/australiaanimals.html Humorous Signs 2! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/hsigns2.html Kids Being Kids 3! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/kids3.html Life's Little Oops 10! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/whoops10.html Zoo Animals! http://www.ShangralaFamilyFun.com/zoo.html Little Help Please! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/helpplease.html Spring / Easter Index: https://tinyurl.com/y4xyz2w8 -<>- >From Survival Update: Expedition Planned to Prove the Earth Is Flat https://tinyurl.com/y4ftpygn *Before Roswell There Was Another Crash With Alien Bodies* https://tinyurl.com/y5sqc8ek *From Garbage To Garden* https://tinyurl.com/y37xaw2r How to Prepare Kids for Survival https://tinyurl.com/y6hn6djt Defilement of The Catholic Churches in France https://tinyurl.com/y6lazfbw -<>- Funny Monkey babies - Playing like Little imps! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiiidKMEmcA Kids Say the Darndest Things - ART LINKLETTER https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UgLpRvX7Qk Candid Camera Classic: Lousy Plates! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-Bqs9QPLjw Candid Camera Classic: The Restroom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGis8BhRPFY -<>- >From Our Friend LouiseAu :) 1.
