>-->From TheFunnyBone: A Child's View Of Retirement
After a Christmas break, a teacher asked her young pupils how they
spent their holidays. One small girl wrote this: We always used to
spend Christmas with Grandpa and Grandma. They used to live here
in a big brick home but grandpa got retarded and they moved to
Florida. Now they live in a place with a lot of other retarded
people. They all live in little tin boxes. They ride three-wheeled
bicycles and they all wear name tags because they don't know who
they are.
_ _
/ )%.===.%( \ They go to a big building called a wrecked
| // ,,, \\ | hall but if it was wrecked, they got it
\/ \/6.6\/ \/ fixed because it's all right now. They
/\ ( _ ) /\ play games and do exercises there but they
^^ /()-()\ ^^ don't do them very good. There is a
/ /o o\ \ swimming pool there. They go in it and
(._\ Y /_.) just stand there with their hats on. I
(O_`&`_O) guess they don't know how to swim.
/ / \ \
/ ()/^\() \ As you go into their park, there is a doll
/. . . . . . .\ house with a little man sitting in it.
`"`"`|`|`|`"`"` He watches all day so they can't get out
jgs _|_|_|_ without him seeing them. When they can
(___|___) sneak out, they go to the beach and pick
up shells that they think are dollars.
My grandma used to bake cookies and stuff but I guess she forgot
how. Nobody cooks. They just eat out. They eat the same thing
every night - early birds. Some of the people are so retarded
they don't know how to cook at all, so my grandma and grandpa
bring food into the wrecked hall and they call it "pot luck".
My grandma says grandpa worked all his life and earned his
retardment. I wish they would move back up here but I guess
the little man in the doll house won't let them out.

>Oldie Quickies:
A Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering
things. During a checkup, the doctor tells them that they're
physically okay, but they might want to start writing things
down to help them remember ..
Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his
chair. 'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.
'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?'
'Sure..'
'Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?'
she asks.
'No, I can remember it..'
'Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should
write it down, so as not to forget it?'
He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with
strawberries.'
'I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that,
write it down?' she asks.
Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember
it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for
Pete's sake!'
Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, The
old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of
bacon and eggs.. She stares at the plate for a moment.
'So... Where's my toast?'

An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after
eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went
out to a new restaurant and it was really great... I would
recommend it very highly.'
The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?'
The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'What is the
name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know....
The one that's red and has thorns.'
'Do you mean a rose?'
'Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards the
kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we
went to last night?'

Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being
discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one
elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a
suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to
leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel
him to the elevator.
On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
'I don't know,' he said. 'She's still upstairs in the bathroom
changing out of her hospital gown.'

'Yep!'
'Do I know her?'
'Nope!'
'This woman, is she good looking?'
'Not really.'

'Naw, she can't cook too well.'
'Does she have lots of money?'
'Nope! Poor as a church mouse.'
'Well, then, is she good in bed?'
'I don't know.'
'Why in the world do you want to marry her then?
'Because she can still drive!'

Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.
A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street
with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.
A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said,
'You're really doing great, aren't you?'
Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma

The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heart

>8 Funny Logics
1. If time doesn't wait for you, don't worry!
Just remove the darn battery from the clock and Enjoy life!
2. Expecting the world to treat u fairly coz u r a good person
is like expecting the lion not to attack u coz u r a vegetarian.
Think about it.
3. Beauty isn't measured by outer appearance and what clothes
we wear, but what we are inside. So, try going out without
clothes tomorrow and see the admiration!
4. Don't walk as if you rule the world,
walk as if you don't care who rules the world!
That's called Attitude! Keep on rocking!
5. Every lady hopes that her daughter will marry a better man
than she did and is convinced that her son will never find a
wife as good as his father did!!!
6. He was a good man. He never smoked, drank & had no affair.
When he died, the insurance company refused the claim.
They said, he who never lived, cannot die!
7. A man threw his wife in a pond of Crocodiles?
He's now being harassed by the Animal Rights Activists for being
cruel to the Crocodiles!
8. So many options for suicide:
Poison, sleeping pills, hanging, jumping from a building, lying on
train tracks, but we chose Marriage, slow & sure!

>RECIPE FOR A PROSPEROUS, PEACEFUL YEAR
Take twelve, fine, full-grown months, see that these are free from all
old memories of bitterness, rancor, hate and jealousy; cleanse them
completely from every clinging spite: pick off all specks of pettiness
and littleness; in short, see that these months are freed as much as
possible from the past.
Cut these months into 29, 30 or 31 equal parts. This batch will keep
for just one year. Do not attempt to make up the whole batch at one
time (so many persons spoil the entire lot in this way), but prepare
one day at a time, as follows:
Into each day put
twelve parts of faith,
eleven of patience,
ten of courage,
nine of work,
eight of hope,
seven of fidelity,
six of liberality,
five of kindness,
four of rest,
three of prayer,
two of meditation,
and one well selected resolution.
If you have no conscientious scruples, put in about a teaspoonful
of good spirits, a dash of fun, a pinch of folly, a sprinkling of
play, and a heaping cupful of good humor.
Pour into the whole love ad libitum and mix with a vim.
Cook thoroughly in a fervent heat; garnish with a few smiles and a
sprig of joy; then serve with quietness, unselfishness, and
cheerfulness, and a Happy New Year is certain.

~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^~~~~~~~~~~~
There once was a rich man who was near death. He was very grieved
because he had worked so hard for his money and he wanted to be
able to take it with him to heaven. So he began to pray that he
might be able to take some of his wealth with him.
An angel hears his plea and appears to him, "Sorry, but you can't
take your wealth with you."
The man implores the angel to speak to God to see if He might bend
the rules.
The man continues to pray that his wealth could follow him. The
angel reappears and informs the man that God has decided to allow
him to take one suitcase with him. Overjoyed, the man gathers his
largest suitcase and fills it with pure gold bars and places it
beside his bed.
Soon afterward the man dies and shows up at the Gates of Heaven to
greet St. Peter. Seeing the suitcase Peter says, "Hold on, you can't
bring that in here!"
But the man explains to him that he has permission and asks him to
verify his story with the Lord. Sure enough,. Peter checks and comes
back saying, "You're right. You are allowed one carry-on bag, but I'm
supposed to check its contents before letting it through."
Peter opens the suitcase to inspect the worldly items that the man
found too precious to leave behind and exclaims,

>Kim Jung Un
I am really concerned about North Korea's appointment of the "dear
leader", Kim Jung Ill's youngest son to be the new leader of North
Korea - a nuclear power!
After all, Kim Jung Un (pronounced Kim's young-un?) had NO military
experience whatsoever before daddy made him a four-star general in the
military. This is a snot-nose twerp who has never accomplished
anything in his life that that would even come close to military
leadership: he hasn't even so much as led a cub scout troop, let alone
coached a sports team or commanded a military platoon.
So, setting that aside, next they make him the "beloved leader" of the
country. Terrific!!!
Oh, crap! I'm sorry. I just remembered that we did the same thing
here, We took a community organizer who has never worn a uniform and
made him Commander-in-Chief; a guy who has never led anything more than
an ACORN demonstration and made him the leader of this country.
Never mind. Sorry to bother you.

This is the story of a man who was arrested for a DUI
while still sitting on his bar stool!
According to The Smoking Gun, Ohio cops arrested a man for
driving drunk on a motorized bar stool. 28-year-old Kile
Wygle crashed his bar stool near his Newark home earlier
this month and called 911 due to his injuries.
When an officer arrived and asked Wygle what happened, he
answered, "I wrecked my bar stool." The plastered "motorist"
then failed a series of field sobriety tests.
Wygle's homemade ride is powered by a Briggs & Stratton
lawnmower engine. Wygle noted that the bar stool could hit
40 miles per hour, but that he was only going 20 when he
wiped out. No reason to get nabbed to speeding, too.
But here is the capper...the reason Mr. Wygle was riding his
motorized bar stool back and forth to the bar? His driver's
license is suspended. Well, it makes perfect sense. I only
wonder if they let him ride it inside the building and
straight up to the bar. That would be classic.
LONDON - A British TV listings said "a temporarily overzealous
profanity checker" censored innocuous program titles, including
changing the film "Hancock" to "HanC**k." Virgin Media said the titles
were fixed after visitors to the listings Web site noticed "Hancock"
had been changed along with the children's show "Dick and Dom," which
became "D**k and Dom," and the panel game "Never Mind the Buzzcocks,"
which was listed as "Never Mind the BuzzC**ks," The Sun reported
Tuesday. The Web site even changed the name of soccer team Arsenal to
"A***nal," the British tabloid said. A Virgin Media representative said
the changes were the work of an employee described as "a temporarily
overzealous profanity checker."
*-- TSA workers serenade travelers --*
LOS ANGELES - Transportation Security Administration workers at Los
Angeles International Airport serenaded travelers with holiday classics
and other tunes. The TSA Chorus entertained passengers at Terminal 4's
American Airlines gates Tuesday with seasonal fare as well as tunes
including "America the Beautiful" and "I Believe I Can Fly," the Los
Angeles Times reported Wednesday. "I love lifting spirits," TSA worker
Ernest Perez III said. "And there is no better way to do this than with
music." The chorus said they will be performing again Thursday, this
time in the publicly accessible area of the Tom Bradley Terminal.
-- Police seek stolen carousel ---------------
NASVIKEN, Sweden - Swedish police said they are searching
for a 2-ton carousel stolen from the side of the road after
the owner backed his trailer into a ditch. Andreas Tynong,
32, told police he had to abandon the trailer carrying the
old-style funfair ride after it became stuck in the ditch
Saturday near Nasviken and the carousel was gone when he
returned for it later in the evening, The Local reported
Monday. Tynong said he constructed the ride himself using
pieces from old coin-operated toys for small children.
"That's why the theft feels so personal,"he said. Police
said they received reports of the carousel being pulled
north of the scene by a golden brown Volvo V70.
-- Teen finds stepfather's pot plants -------------
LORAIN, Ohio - An Ohio teen alerted police after finding
a marijuana plant in her closet, and her stepfather
allegedly confessed that it and others on the property
were his. Lorain police said the 13-year-old girl summoned
them to the home Friday without telling her parents,
WEWS-TV in Cleveland reported. She took them inside and
showed them a 4-foot pot plant in her bedroom closet. The
stepfather, William C. Cramer Jr., allegedly told police
the illegal weed and eight others growing in the attached
garage were his, the TV station said. He said his wife
was unaware of his horticultural activities. Police said
Cramer told them he didn't smoke the marijuana, but grew
it for his parents, "who loved to smoke up." He later
allegedly admitted selling it "because times were tough."
Cramer faces a variety of charges.
-- Transforming car-plane to sell for $194K ---------
PAXON, Ill. - An Illinois man who helped create a car that
transforms into an airplane said the vehicle will be avail-
able for public purchase within about two years. Sam
Schweighart, 31, of Paxon, Ill., said the Terrafugia
Transition, which took its first flight March 5, is
expected to retail for about $194,000, the Champaign (Ill.)
News-Gazette reported. He said about 50 people have already
put down $10,000 deposits on the transformable vehicles.
Schweighart, who holds a Ph.D. from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, created the car along with
colleagues from the same university. He said the Transition
runs on high-octane gas or aviation fuel and gets 30 to
35 miles per gallon on the ground. In the air, the
Transition uses about 5 gallons an hour and can remain
airborne for 460 miles at a time. "If you need to drive
and fly a short distance, it solves several problems,
including finding or paying for a hangar," said Thomas
Haines, editor in chief of the news site for the Aircraft
Owners and Pilots Association. "It's really meant for a
special kind of consumer."
-- Woman, 84, apprehends burglar ---------------
FUKUOKA, Japan - Police in Japan said a 22-year-old alleged
burglar confessed after he was apprehended by a homeowner's
84-year-old mother. Investigators said Katsunori Kuruhara
allegedly entered the Fukuoka home about 10:30 a.m. Sunday
and took a bag from the living room, the Kyodo news agency
reported Monday. The alleged thief continued into the
kitchen of the home, where he was confronted by Kimiko
Nagamitsu, police said. The young man told the elderly
woman he was selling iron bars but she did not believe him
and held him by the arms while her 27-year-old grand-
daughter phoned police. Police said Kuruhara admitted to
planning to burgle the house after police arrived and
arrested him. Nagamitsu told police she was not afraid of
the burglar. "I wasn't scared. I thought he might come
back, or rob someone else, so I thought I'd better stop
him," she said.

CAR RADIO, AN INTERESTING TRUE QUINCY STORY
CAR TUNES
Radios are so much a part of the driving experience, it seems
like cars have always had them. But they didn’t. Here’s the story.
SUNDOWN
One evening in 1929 two young men named William Lear and Elmer Wavering
drove their girlfriends to a lookout point high above the
Mississippi River town of Quincy, Illinois, to watch the sunset. It was
a romantic night to be sure, but one of the women observed that it
would be even nicer if they could listen to music in the car.
Lear and Wavering liked the idea. Both men had tinkered with radios –
Lear had served as a radio operator in the U. S. Navy during World War
I – and it wasn’t long before they were taking apart a home radio and
trying to get it to work in a car. But it wasn’t as easy as it sounds:
automobiles have ignition switches, generators, spark plugs, and other
electrical equipment that generate noisy static interference, making it
nearly impossible to listen to the radio when the engine was running.
SIGNING ON
One by one, Lear and Wavering identified and eliminated each source of
electrical interference. When they finally got their radio to work,
they took it to a radio convention in Chicago . There they met Paul
Galvin, owner of Galvin Manufacturing Corporation. He made a product
called a “battery eliminator” a device that allowed battery-powered
radios to run on household AC current. But as more homes were wired for
electricity, more radio manufacturers made AC-powered radios. Galvin
needed a new product to manufacture. When he met Lear and Wavering at
the radio convention, he found it. He believed that mass-produced,
affordable car radios had the potential to become a huge business.
Lear and Wavering set up shop in Galvin’s factory, and when they
perfected their first radio, they installed it in his Studebaker. Then
Galvin went to a local banker to apply for a loan. Thinking it might
sweeten the deal, he had his men install a radio in the banker’s
Packard. Good idea, but it didn’t work – half an hour after the
installation, the banker’s Packard caught on fire. (They didn’t get the
loan.) Galvin didn’t give up. He drove his Studebaker nearly 800 miles
to Atlantic City to show off the radio at the 1930 Radio Manufacturers
Association convention. Too broke to afford a booth, he parked the car
outside the convention hall and cranked up the radio so that passing
conventioneers could hear it. That idea worked – he got enough orders
to put the radio into production.
WHAT’S IN A NAME
That first production model was called the 5T71. Galvin decided he
needed to come up with something a little catchier. In those days many
companies in the phonograph and radio businesses used the suffix “ola”
for their names – Radiola, Columbiola, and Victrola were three of the
biggest. Galvin decided to do the same thing, and since his radio was
intended for use in a motor vehicle, he decided to call it the Motorola.
But even with the name change, the radio still had problems:
When Motorola went on sale in 1930, it cost about $110 uninstalled, at
a time when you could buy a brand-new car for $650, and the country was
sliding into the Great Depression. (By that measure, a radio for a new
car would cost about $3,000 today.) In 1930 it took two men several
days to put in a car radio – the dashboard had to be taken apart so
that the receiver and a single speaker could be installed, and the
ceiling had to be cut open to install the antenna. These early radios
ran on their own batteries, not on the car battery, so holes had to be
cut into the floorboard to accommodate them. The installation manual
had eight complete diagrams and 28 pages of instructions.
HIT THE ROAD
Selling complicated car radios that cost 20 percent of the price of a
brand-new car wouldn’t have been easy in the best of times, let alone
during the Great Depression – Galvin lost money in 1930 and struggled
for a couple of years after that. But things picked up in 1933 when
Ford began offering Motorola's pre-installed at the factory. In 1934
they got another boost when Galvin struck a deal with B. F. Goodrich
tire company to sell and install them in its chain of tire stores. By
then the price of the radio, installation included, had dropped to $55.
The Motorola car radio was off and running. (The name of the company
would be officially changed from Galvin Manufacturing to “Motorola” in
1947.) In the meantime, Galvin continued to develop new uses for car
radios. In 1936, the same year that it introduced push-button tuning,
it also introduced the Motorola Police Cruiser, a standard car radio
that was factory preset to a single frequency to pick up police
broadcasts. In 1940 he developed with the first handheld two-way radio
– the Handie-Talkie – for the U. S. Army.
A lot of the communications technologies that we take for granted today
were born in Motorola labs in the years that followed World War II. In
1947 they came out with the first television to sell under $200. In
1956 the company introduced the world’s first pager; in 1969 it
supplied the radio and television equipment that was used to televise
Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon. In 1973 it invented the
world’s first handheld cellular phone. Today Motorola is one of the
second-largest cell phone manufacturer in the world. And it all started
with the car radio.
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO….
The two men who installed the first radio in Paul Galvin’s car, Elmer
Wavering and William Lear, ended up taking very different paths in
life. Wavering stayed with Motorola. In the 1950’s he helped change the
automobile experience again when he developed the first automotive
alternator, replacing inefficient and unreliable generators. The
invention lead to such luxuries as power windows, power seats, and,
eventually, air-conditioning.
Lear also continued inventing. He holds more than 150 patents. Remember
eight-track tape players? Lear invented that. But what he’s really
famous for are his contributions to the field of aviation. He invented
radio direction finders for planes, aided in the invention of the
autopilot, designed the first fully automatic aircraft landing system,
and in 1963 introduced his most famous invention of all, the Lear Jet,
the world’s first mass-produced, affordable business jet. (Not bad for
a guy who dropped out of school after the eighth grade.)
Some of us have been fortunate to have met both of these gentlemen and
they were - gentlemen.
It is time for everyone to accept responsibility for their own actions
and stop waiting for someone else to take the blame & come to your
rescue!

>YOUR LAUGH FOR THE DAY
A man is struck by a bus on a busy street in New York City. He
lies dying on the sidewalk as a crowd of spectators gathers around.
"A priest! Somebody get me a priest!" the man gasps. A policeman
checks the crowd but finds no priest, no minister, no man of
God of any kind.
"A PRIEST, PLEASE!" the dying man says again. Then out of the crowd
steps a little old Jewish man of at least eighty years of age.
"Mr. Policeman," says the man, "I'm not a priest. I'm not even a
Catholic. But for fifty years now I'm living behind St. Mary's
Catholic Church on Third Avenue, and every night I'm listening to
the Catholic litany. Maybe I can be of some comfort to this man."
The policeman agrees and brings the octogenarian over to the dying
man. He kneels down, leans over the injured and says in a solemn
voice:
'
'
'
'
'
'
'
'
'

'
"B - 4. I - 19. N - 38. G - 54. O - 72."

Jim was just out of Navy boot camp, and was on his first
ship. About two hours out of port, he began to get a bit
ill from the motion of the ship. He approached an ensign,
also just out of training and on his first cruise. He
saluted and said, "Excuse me sir, I am feeling seasick,
and I wondered if I may have permission to go downstairs
to the dispensary."
The ensign returned his salute and replied, "Sailor, you
are in the Navy now. You don't go downstairs, you go below!
There is no dispensary on this ship, there is sickbay. Not
only that, that is not the floor, it is a deck, that is not
the ceiling, it is the overhead, that is not a pillar, it is
a stanchion, that is not a water fountain, it is a scuttle-
butt. If I ever hear you using civilian words instead of
Naval jargon, I till throw you out of that little round
