>-->In The 'Shangy' News :)
Today marks one week since I had my surgery and my gall bladder
removed. I still got metal in my stomach and have a just a couple
more days to wait till I can get the staples removed. It has been
a long week. I have not taken a vacation in over ten years so
forcing myself to spend only limited time on the ezine and my
web site has been difficult. I am not used to not spending hour
after hour after hour working on my computer. It is hard. I will
be glad when I am able to return to my normal schedule!
I'm being good though and taking care of myself so I will again be
cheating on this ezine and use one from the past for our SMILES.
I just have to share these with you though ;)

>From Our Friend Bob :)
Bob sent us a forward that I found here - without the pictures...
Subject: Fwd: We Paid For Her Scholarship
http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/thesis.asp
Many thanks to my friend for sending us this critical piece of info. To
me, of course, it is unbelievable that this country could elect someone
like Obama with the un-American 'baggage' that he brings. This is NOT an
original work of mine. I recieved it as an e-mail, and thought it worthy
of a post here...
http://tinyurl.com/4rxl3q
---
...Thank You Bob! The problem I see with Obama's wife is that she sat
with him all those years in the church of the radical anti-American
anti white Rev. Jeremiah Wright preaching to her. You and I would of
walked out on him the first time we heard him preach, but they stayed
Sunday after sunday, week after week, month after month, year after
year after year. Obama had first said Jeremiah Wright was his mentor
but then turned on him when he saw it was hurting his polls. They are
two peas in a pod. I do not trust either one of them.
I just found this out about Obama's running mate Biden. He suffered the
loss of his wife and daughter in a terrible accident in the 70's. A
truck driver broad sided his wife's car when she failed to stop at an
intersection. The way Biden tells it, he says the truck driver was
drunk and caused the accident. The truck driver died in 1999 and cannot
defend himself, but his daughter has decided to stand up for her dad and
her family and make sure the story is set straight. She said they did an
investigation at the time and found no alcohol was present. Her father
was never charged with any wrong doing. Their family had reached out to
Biden several times and he told them not to worry that he knew her dad
was not at fault. It was horrible accident. She said her dad even tried
to avoid hitting their car and wound up flipping the truck over. He went
to his grave saddened that he had any part in their death.
Here is the story...
Biden Lies about first wifes death
http://mrssatan.blogspot.com/2008/09/biden-lied-about-first-wifes-death.html
The point is, Joe Biden lied about such a terrible thing as this for
seemingly very little gain unless he was after a few more votes. So what
will he lie about when it is really important? When he really has much
to gain? Another pea in the pod, I see why Obama picked him for his
running mate - he has no trouble lying when it suits him. Just like
Obama who switches allegiance when it suits him or does this...
>From NRA: Barack Obama--Lying Rabble Rouser
In an appearance in Nevada, anti-gun presidential candidate Barack Obama
told his followers:
"I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your
neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or
whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in
their face," he said.
"And if they tell you that, 'Well, we're not sure where he stands on
guns.' I want you to say, 'He believes in the Second Amendment.'
http://www.ilaalerts.org/UM/T.asp?A1.2.3692.2.2794086
Barack Obama has gone beyond lying about his long anti-gun record. Now
he is inciting his followers to lie for him and to be aggressive and
confrontational with anyone who will not buy his lies.
The truth must scare Obama, and the truth is, Barack Obama is the most
anti-gun candidate who has ever run on a major party ticket in American
history. Don't buy Obama's lies. Or the lies repeated by his misguided
followers.
---
...Some people may think it is good not to have a right to bear arms
but just ask any Veteran if he/she wants to be told he/she cannot own
a weapon to protect themselves or their family and you will see how
important it really is. You cannot know how important it is until you
have actually been there. Then you have the experience and understanding
to know why. Obama doesn't have the experience or understanding. He
thinks violence begets violence so get rid of the guns. But those with
wisdom know that a good offense is a good defense. No defense and you
are dead in the water before you know it. Having the right to bear arms
is a good defense. Keeps the bad guys guessing. If you cannot defend
yourself, you have no hope. You've already lost. The bad guys win.
Talk about 'Dead In The Water' ...
>Even Rudy Giuliani thinks Obama is a joke...
Giuliani Touts McCain, Blasts Obama In Keynote Speech
The AP reports Rudy Giuliani "said Wednesday night that Barack Obama and
the Democrats 'are in a state of denial' about the threat of terrorism
against the United States." Giuliani said Obama "is a celebrity senator
without a record of leadership or legislation." On NBC, Brian Williams
said, "In Rudy Giuliani's speech right before, it was a kind of
stabbing, mocking speech. He said of Barack Obama, his rise is
remarkable in its own right. It is the kind of thing that can only
happen only in America. He was kidding. He said it in a mocking way."
USA Today reports Giuliani "said Thursday that the nation must choose
this fall between 'a true American hero' who survived torture in Vietnam
and a Chicago 'machine politician' who 'has never led anything. Nothing.
Nada.'" The Washington Times reports Giuliani "released a relentless
attack on" Obama, "energizing a previously moribund Republican
convention and setting up one of the most anticipated vice-presidential
speeches in recent history." Giuliani said, "The choice in this election
comes down to substance over style. John McCain has been tested. Barack
Obama has not."

>Unseen things
Here’s a question for us to ponder….
Our countries, our cities and towns are dotted with countless churches,
places to go to worship God and His Almighty name…. after all these
buildings have been built, all the tabernacles filled, all the crusades
gathering souls, all the millions of dollars spent by Church
Organizations all over the world on evangelism, God is still rejected..!
By thousands upon thousands of people!
I wonder why it is, that it takes huge amounts of time and money to
build up a church, and yet so little time and effort, to pull it down?
Why is it so so! difficult? To get Gods word out to those who have need?
And yet….and YET! I don’t see any churches built to the Devil! I don’t
hear of conferences and crusaded being carried out in HIS name! But his
word is everywhere!
And to become a follower of Satan, doesn’t take years of study and
sitting examinations and trying our best to achieve high grades….I
cannot understand why humanity is so willing to listen to Satans
preaching and turn a deaf ear to Gods Word…can you?
I believe that society today, figures that our planet is the very centre
of the universe, we attach far too much importance on ‘earthly’
things….our pride allows us to think that because we can be ‘seen’,
because we can be “felt”, because we can be ‘heard’, that we pridefully
think that everything EVERYTHING~ revolves around us! How arrogant
then…. Are we?
Right now, wherever you are, wherever you live, no matter what country,
there is a struggle going on…
No, I don’t mean bombs being dropped and guns being fired….I mean a
‘spiritual’ struggle…. Good against evil, and its of a far greater
magnitude than we allow our selves to think…and its ‘unseen’…
We still have problems as humans, believing in that which we cannot
see…… Radio waves can’t be seen but we know they are there, man even
claims to have ‘made them”, but they have been there all along…man
didn’t ‘make’ them! Even the ancients knew of them! But modern man in
his audacity, ‘claims’ them as a modern invention! There must be far
more greater things ‘out there’ than we can ever imagine ‘down
here’….agreed?
Why then? Can’t we ‘see’ the work that Satan does in our society?
Buildings being destroyed, churches being burned down, meetings being
ransacked and people being killed and injured in the name of ‘religious’
beliefs….is this then, the work of a Loving God??
Is taking religious instruction out of schools world wide, a work of
God?? of course not….. God says ‘suffer the little children to come unto
Me” SUFFER means allow! Allow them! Not make them suffer!
There is an unseen world out there, and it was put there for us…..but
it’s a world where fruit grows free on trees, where the air is clean and
the music is pure! A world where evil CANNOT exist and where hearts
cannot be turned away from God.…Where is that place?
Its anywhere that God lives…..!
“suffer” Him then, to live in YOUR heart!…….and “suffer others to‘feel’,
‘see’and ‘hear’ the difference that YOU can make in this world…
Don’t be a part of the ‘other’ unseen world….! Put away your sins! Take
then to the Cross and let ‘Him who has loved you personally, from even
before you were born! Let HIM deal with them!
Start today! Living for Jesus!! Even as HE DIED! For you……..

...Thank you Tony! Yeah, I think Hurricane Ike is one of those 'unseen'
things that you are referring to. Others will say it was simply an act
of nature, yet this act of nature wrecked havoc as it came ashore in
Texas and instead of weakening as a hurricane normally does when it hits
landfall, it instead, gained strength. It caused devastation from Texas
clear through my state of Ohio. That is amazing to me that a Hurricane
could ever touch or effect my life so far inland as I am here in
northwestern Ohio. But touch it, it did. It came blowing in to my
state with winds of almost 70 miles per hour and blew over my neighbors
big old tree. A mighty thud was felt in my house as it fell within yards
of it, taking down power lines with it. Nobody was hurt, by the grace of
God, but you can be certain by its destruction that this was not a force
from God. Our God is the creator, the devil is the destructor. It takes
far more wisdom and power to create something then it does to destroy
something. Any fool can wreck and knock things down, but it takes
intelligence to build and create something.
Is every hurricane, tornado, or natural disaster an act of the devil?
I wouldn't go that far, but like Jesus who calmed the winds at sea,
I will say that if they don't do any good, then they certainly can be
something that God can deal with. Jesus is our pattern for right
believing. Did he say - 'oh it is only an act of nature, no big deal'?
No. He calmed the winds that could cause trouble. So we too know it is
OK to ask God to intervene in bad 'natural' weather issues because our
Lord Jesus Christ did. If it was God's will for the high wind, then
Jesus who always did the Will of the Father would never of interfered
and changed the weather by calming the winds. Therefore we can conclude
that it was not God's Will for it in the first place.
These 'unseen' things are the devil's game. He uses them to turn people
away from God. He kills and steals and destroys and makes people think
it was all God's fault so the people turn away from their own creator.
The very one who would protect and love and guide them. It is these
'unseen' things that fool the masses and make it easy for the devil.
Like a magician with slight of hand he awes them into disbelief and
sways them to his side of foolishness. Yet in his wake is left the
'seen' acts of destruction and death.

>>HUBBYPOINTS
For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when
dealing with women. Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to
understand just how it works. Remember, in the world of romance, one
single rule applies: Make the woman happy. Do something she likes, and
you get points.
Do something she dislikes and points are subtracted. You don't get
any points for doing something she expects. Sorry, but that's the way
the game is played. Here is a guide to the points system:
SIMPLE DUTIES
You make the bed .............................................+1
You make the bed, but forget to add the decorative pillows.... 0
You throw the bedspread over rumpled sheets...................-1
You leave the toilet seat up..................................-5

AT THE PARTY

You stay by her side for a while, then leave to chat with a
College drinking buddy......-2

It's a sports bar, it's all-you-can-eat night, and your face is
painted the colors of your favorite team........-10
A NIGHT OUT WITH THE BOYS

You listen, displaying a concerned expression....................0
You listen, for over 30 minutes..................................+5
You relate to her problem and share a similar experience........+50
You're mind wanders to sports and you suddenly hear her saying "well,
what do you think I should do"...........................-50
You listen for more than 30 minutes without looking at the TV..+100
She realizes this is because you have fallen asleep............-200
========================================================================
>>JUST THINK ABOUT THIS:
**Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up
with people who are reckless with yours.**
**Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead,
sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's
only with yourself.**
**Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults.
If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.**
**Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few
you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography
and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the
people who knew you when you were young.**
**Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing
the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly
parts and recycling it for more that it's worth.**
=======================================================================
>>-->Now that's an easy to understand reason!

telling me why you don`t like 502?" asked the clerk.
"Well, for one thing," said the drunk, "it`s on fire."

>>True story?
Here is a supposedly true story someone found regarding exams
at Cambridge University. It seems that during an examination
one day a bright young student popped up and asked the proctor
to bring him Cakes and Ale. The following dialog ensued:
Proctor: I beg your pardon?
Student: Sir, I request that you bring me Cakes and Ale.
Proctor: Sorry, no.
Student: Sir, I really must insist. I request and require
that you bring me Cakes and Ale.
At this point, the student produced a copy of the four hun-
dred year old Laws of Cambridge, written in Latin and still
nominally in effect, and pointed to the section which read
(roughly translated): "Gentlemen sitting examinations may
request and require Cakes and Ale." Pepsi and hamburgers
were judged the modern equivalent, and the student sat there,
writing his examination and happily slurping away. Three
weeks later, the same student was fined five pounds for not
wearing a sword to the examination.

>>It's Punny!!
I had been planning this date with the most popular girl in
school for a month. I had concert tickets, dinner reservations
and my dad had given me the keys to his new car. Nothing could
go wrong.
When I was about to leave, my mother stopped me. She had just
received a frantic call from my older sister, Linda. Her car
had stalled on the freeway and she was late for work.
I would have to go pick her up, take her to work, and then
see that her car was towed to the nearest garage. I would
have to cancel my date.
I immediately refused telling her it was impossible for me
to do that.
My mother was irate. "Don't you have any sense of responsi-
bility? She's family!"
"It's not that," I answered, "I just can't be a brother and
assist her."

quickly.
"So, how does physics save lives?" the student persisted.
"It keeps the ignoramuses out of medical school," replied
the professor.

You're in incredible shape," the doctor said. "How old are

"I am 78." The man said.

"Well, my wife and I made a pact when we got married that
whenever she got mad she would go into the kitchen and cool
off and I would go outside for a walk to settle down." the
man explained.
"What does that have to do with it?" asked the doctor.
"I've pretty much lived an outdoor life."

>>Military Communication Down The Chain ...
DIRECTIVE TO HIS EXECUTIVE OFFICERS: "Tomorrow evening at approximately
20-00 hours Halley's Comet will be visible in this area; an event which
occurs only every 75 years. Have the men fall out in the battalion area
infatigues, and I will explain this rare phenomenon to them. In case of
rain, we will not be able to see anything, so assemble the men in the
theater and I will show them films of it."
EXECUTIVE OFFICER TO COMPANY COMMANDER: "By order of the Colonel,
tomorrow at 20-00 hours, Halley's Comet will appear above the battalion
area. If it rains, fall the men out in fatigues, then march to the
theater where this rare phenomenon will take place, something which
occurs only once every 75 years."
COMPANY COMMANDER TO LIEUTENANT: "By order of the Colonel be in
fatigues at 20-00 hours tomorrow evening. The phenomenal Halley's
Comet will appear in the theater. In case of rain in the battalion

>>How Would The Army Handle The Problem?
The soldier was tired and sleepy from a long train ride in a miserable
old-day coach. On top of this, two fussy old ladies were keeping him
awake with argument about a window. One wanted it closed and the
other wanted it open. This fuss finally brought the
conductor. "Conductor," said one, "if that window is opened, I'll
just freeze to death!"
"And if it is kept closed," whined the other, "I'll suffocate."
The poor conductor didn't know what to do and finally turned to the
GI for help. "What would you do, soldier, if it were a military
problem?"
"In the Army we handle such problems like a double-prong attack.
Open the window and freeze one of them, then close it and suffocate
the other."

>>BUYING PAINT FROM A HARDWARE STORE
Customer: Hi. How much is your paint?
Clerk: We have regular quality for $12 a gallon and premium for $18.
How many gallons would you like?
Customer: Five gallons of regular quality, please.
Clerk: Great. That will be $60 plus tax.
--BUYING PAINT FROM AN AIRLINE
Customer: Hi, how much is your paint?
Clerk: Well, sir, that all depends.
Customer: Depends on what?
Clerk: Actually, a lot of things.
Customer: How about giving me an average price?
Clerk: Wow, that's too hard a question. The lowest price is $9 a
gallon, and we have 150 different prices up to $200 a gallon.
Customer: What's the difference in the paint?
Clerk: Oh, there isn't any difference; it's all the same paint.
Customer: Well, then, I'd like some of that $9 paint.
Clerk: Well, first I need to ask you a few questions. When do you
intend to use it?
Customer: I want to paint tomorrow, on my day off.
Clerk: Sir, the paint for tomorrow is the $200 paint.
Customer: What? When would I have to paint in order to get the $9 same
version?
Clerk: That would be in three weeks, but you will also have to agree
to start painting before Friday of that week and continue painting
until at least Sunday.
Customer: You've got to be kidding!
Clerk: Sir, we don't kid around here. Of course, I'll have to check to
see if we have any of that paint available before I can sell it to you.
Customer: What do you mean check to see if you can sell it to me?
You have shelves full of that stuff; I can see it right there.
Clerk: Just because you can see it doesn't mean that we have it. It
may be the same paint, but we sell only a certain number of gallons on
any given weekend. Oh, and by the way, the price just went to $12.
Customer: You mean the price went up while we were talking!
Clerk: Yes, sir. You see, we change prices and rules thousands of times
a day, and since you haven't actually walked out of the store with your
paint yet, we just decided to change. Unless you want the same thing to
happen again, I would suggest that you get on with your purchase. How
many gallons do you want?
Customer: I don't know exactly. Maybe five gallons. Maybe I should
buy six gallons just to make sure I have enough.
Clerk: Oh, no, sir, you can't do that. If you buy the paint and then
don't use it, you will be liable for penalties and possible
confiscation of the paint you already have.
Customer: What?
Clerk: That's right. We can sell you enough paint to do your kitchen,
bathroom, hall and north bedroom, but if you stop painting before you
do the bedroom, you will be in violation of our tariffs.
Customer: But what does it matter to you whether I use all the paint?
I already paid you for it!
Clerk: Sir, there's no point in getting upset; that's just the way it
is. We make plans based upon the idea that you will use all the paint,
and when you don't, it just causes us all sorts of problems.
Customer: This is crazy! I suppose something terrible will happen if
I don't keep painting until after Saturday night!
Clerk: Yes, sir, it will.
Customer: Well, that does it! I'm going somewhere else to buy my paint.
Clerk: That won't do you any good, sir. We all invented the same
rules .....Thanks for painting with our airline.

>>-->From Our Friend Kent ...
If ever there was a good chain letter this would be it!
This chain letter was started in hopes of bringing relief to
other tired and discouraged men. Unlike most chain letters,
this one does not cost anything.
Just send a copy of this letter to five of your friends who
are equally tired and discontented. Then bundle up your wife
and/or girlfriend and send her to the man whose name appears
at the top of the following list, and add your name to the bottom
of the list.
When your turn comes, you will receive 15,625 women. One of
them is bound to be better than the one you already have. At the
writing of this letter, a friend of mine had already received 184
women, of whom 4 were worth keeping.
REMEMBER this chain brings luck. One man's pit bull died,
and the next day he received a Playboy swimsuit model.
An unmarried Jewish man living with his widowed mother was
able to choose between a Hooters waitress and a Hollywood super
model.
You can be lucky too, but DO NOT BREAK THE CHAIN! One man
broke the chain, and got his own wife back again.
Let's keep it going, men! Just add your name to the list
below!

>>Abstract Art ...
I think my Grandson best summed up my feelings about abstract art.
We were looking at a painting with a wild mish-mash of colors and
he asked, "What's that?"
I said, "It's supposed to be a cowboy on his horse."
"Well," he continued, "Why isn't it?"
========================================================================
>>Fidel
Fidel dies and goes to heaven. When he gets there, St. Peter tells him
that he is not on the list and that no way, no how, does he belong in
heaven. Fidel must go to hell.
So Fidel goes to hell where Satan gives him a hearty welcome and tells
him to make himself at home.
Then Fidel notices that he left his luggage in heaven and tells Satan,
who says, "No hay problema, I'll send a couple of little devils to get
your stuff."
When the little devils get to heaven they find the gates are locked -
St. Peter is having lunch - and they start debating what to do.
Finally, one comes up with the idea that they should go over the wall
and get the luggage.
As they are climbing the wall, two little angels see them, and one
angel says to the other, "My goodness! Fidel has been in hell no more
than ten minutes and we're already getting refugees."
=====================================================================
>>A CODE OF ETHICAL BEHAVIOUR FOR PATIENTS
1. DO NOT EXPECT YOUR DOCTOR TO SHARE YOUR DISCOMFORT.
Involvement with the patient's suffering might cause him to
lose valuable scientific objectivity.
2. BE CHEERFUL AT ALL TIMES. Your doctor leads a busy and
trying life and requires all the gentleness and reassurance
he can get.
3. TRY TO SUFFER FROM THE DISEASE FOR WHICH YOU ARE BEING
TREATED. Remember that your doctor has a professional
reputation to uphold.
4. DO NOT COMPLAIN IF THE TREATMENT FAILS TO BRING RELIEF.
You must believe that your doctor has achieved a deep
insight into the true nature of your illness, which
transcends any mere permanent disability you may have
experienced.
5. NEVER ASK YOUR DOCTOR TO EXPLAIN WHAT HE IS DOING OR WHY
HE IS DOING IT. It is presumptuous to assume that such
profound matters could be explained in terms that you would
understand.
6. SUBMIT TO NOVEL EXPERIMANTAL TREATMENT READILY. Though
the surgery may not benefit you directly, the resulting
research paper will surely be of widespread interest.
7. PAY YOUR MEDICAL BILLS PROMPTLY AND WILLINGLY. You should
consider it a privilege to contribute, however modestly, to
the well-being of physicians and other humanitarians.
8. DO NOT SUFFER FROM AILMENTS THAT YOU CANNOT AFFORD. It is
sheer arrogance to contract illnesses that are beyond your
means.
9. NEVER REVEAL ANY OF THE SHORTCOMINGS THAT HAVE COME TO
LIGHT IN THE COURSE OF TREATMENT BY YOUR DOCTOR. The
patient-doctor relationship is a privileged one, and you
have a sacred duty to protect him from exposure.
10. NEVER DIE WHILE IN YOUR DOCTOR'S PRESENCE OR UNDER HIS
DIRECT CARE. This will only cause him needless inconvenience
and embarrassment.

>>Well, Plow me down!
I was inspecting communications facilities in Alaska. Since
I had little experience in flying in small planes, I was
nervous when we approached a landing strip in a snow-covered
area. The pilot descended to just a couple hundred feet,
then gunned both engines, climbed, and circled back. While
my heart pounded, the passenger beside me seemed calm. "I
wonder why he didn't land," I said.
"He was checking to see if the landing strip was plowed,"
the man said.
As we made a second approach, I glanced out the window. "It
looks plowed to me," I commented.
"No," my seatmate said. "It hasn't been cleared for some time."
"How can you tell?"
"Because," the man informed me, "I'm the guy who drives the plow."

>>THOUGHTS & QUOTES:
"I tell ya, my favorite girls are the ones who wear
eyeglasses. When you take 'em home you breathe heavy, they
don't know what the hell you're doing."
-- Rodney Dangerfield
"Don't you find it strange when you first become famous?
And it's so strange when you first start to get recognized.
Like, in the supermarket: 'Are you Steve Martin?' Or at the
airport, 'Are you Steve Martin?' Or making love, 'Are you
Steve Martin?'"
-- Steve Martin
"Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, 'Where have I
gone wrong?' Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take
more than one night.' " --Charlie Brown
"Last night, as I sat alone in my moment of deepest, darkest
despair, trying to summon the courage to pull the trigger,
Jesus appeared before me. He laid a gentle hand on my
shoulder and asked, 'Do you happen to know how the season
finale of 'The West Wing' ended last week?' I said, 'No, o
Lord, I don't.' He said, 'Well, thanks anyway,' and then He
left."
-- Andy Ihnatko
"Mormons are very organized. I had this neighbor Mrs. Mabey
who stocked canned goods in her basement, so she could be
prepared for when Christ returns to Earth. Because
apparently what Christ is looking for is creamed corn."
-- Natasha Ahanin
"Organized religion has taken a turn for the worst. Just the
other day I drove by "The Church of the Seven or So Commandments:
Pastor Bill Clinton and the Reverend O.J. Simpson."
-- Sue Bova
"One of my favorite things to do when I was a kid was to
watch TV. I know it sounds funny, but it's true. Ah, reckless youth."
-- R.M. Weiner (from Ruminations at topfivee.com)
"I have to talk to my girlfriend every day on the phone. My
husband says, 'Why do you have to talk to her again today?
You just talked to her yesterday. What could you possibly
have to tell her?' 'Well, for one thing, I have to tell her
you just said that.'"
-- Rita Rudner
"I was an accountant for a while, but I wasn't very good. I
always felt that if you got within two or three bucks that
was close enough."
-- Bob Newhart
"Did you ever read the book 'Everything I Needed to Know I
Learned in Kindergarten?' I learned only two things in
kindergarten: First, if someone has something you want you
can take it from them by force. And second, Elmer's glue
makes a great between-meals snack."
-- Gary Barkin
"With girls I don't get no respect. I had a blind date. I
waited two hours on the corner. A girl walked by. I said
'Are you Louise?' She said, 'Are you Rodney?' I said,
'Yeah.' She said, 'I'm not Louise.'"
-- Rodney Dangerfield
"I was out on a date recently and the guy took me horseback
riding. That was kind of fun, until we ran out of quarters."
-- Susie Loucks
"As long as I have a cool TV, I might as well live in a cave.
In fact, I like to think of my house as nothing more than a
glorified console for my television -- the ultimate stereo
cabinet."
-- Drew Carey
"My wife finally convinced me to sign what's called a living
will. It's a document that gives her the right, if I become
attached to some mechanical device, to terminate my life. So
yesterday, I'm on the exercise bike..."
-- Jonathan Katz
"There are three things I never want to hear again on a first
date, 'So...how much cash do you have on you?' 'Wow! You're
a big girl!' and 'Wanna hold my gun? It's loaded.'"
-- Jennifer Fairbanks
