Approaching his friend, he commented, "You look awful. What's wrong?" "My mother died in May and left me $15,000," the friend answered. "Boy, that's tough," the man replied. Continuing, the friend said, "Then in June, my dad died leaving me $50,000." "Gosh, both parents gone in such a short period of time? No wonder you're depressed," said the man. "Last month my aunt died and left me $10,000," the friend added. "That's a lot to deal with. Losing three close family members in three months, is terrible!" replied the man. "Then this month," continued the friend, "nothing! Not even a single dime!" -<>- A blonde had some goldfish and she did not know how to feed them.

Working as a telemarketer for MCI Communications, I made a call to a home one evening. When a boy around eight answered the phone, I identified myself, told him I was calling for MCI and asked to speak to his parents. As he put the phone down, I heard him yell, "Dad! Dad! The FBI wants to talk to you!" As soon as the father answered the phone in a quivering voice, I said, "Sir this is not the FBI. This is MCI Communications." After a long pause, the man said, "This is the first time I am actually glad to hear from you guys." -<>- >Birthday Flowers A fellow was very much in love with a beautiful girl. One day she told him that the next day was her birthday. He told her he would send her a bouquet of roses ... one for each year of her life. That evening he called the local florist and ordered twenty-one roses with instructions that they be delivered first thing the next morning. As the florist was preparing the order, he decided that since the young man was such a good customer, he would put an extra dozen roses in the bouquet. The fellow never did find out what made the young girl so angry with him. -<>- >Failing with Style We all fail sometimes. But there's something about failing with style.

"Well then, buy a couple of bunches to celebrate your luck." ---------- A man went on a ski trip, and was knocked unconscious by the chair lift. He called his insurance company from the hospital, but it refused to cover his injury. "Why is the injury not covered?" he asked. "You got hit in the head by a chair lift," the insurance rep said. "That makes you an idiot, and we consider that a pre-existing condition." ---------- One morning a man came into the church on crutches. He stopped in front of the holy water, put some on both of his legs, and then threw away his crutches. An altar boy witnessed the scene and then ran into the rectory to tell the priest what he had just seen. "Son, you have just witnessed a miracle," the priest said. "Tell me where is this man now?" "Flat on his butt over by the holy water," said the boy. ---------- A woman telephoned a veterinarian and asked him to come examine her cat. "I don't know what's wrong with her," the woman told him. "She looks as if she's going to have kittens, but that's impossible. She's never been out of the house except for when I had her on a leash." The vet examined the cat and said there was no question about her pregnancy. "But she can't be," protested the woman. "It's impossible." At that point a large tom cat emerged from under the sofa. "How about him?" asked the vet. "Don't be silly," answered the woman. "That's her brother." ---------- The guy from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, was sick of winter, so he went to a travel agent and booked a trip to Australia. When he got off the plane---still dressed for Canadian winter weather---he wandered into a pub and sat down. The locals wondered about this stranger, so one of the Aussies walked over to the visitor and said, "G'day, mate. Where you hail from?" "Saskatoon, Saskatchewan," the Canadian proudly replied. "Oh," said the Aussie, taken back and returning to his table. "So where's he from?" the other locals asked. "Don't know," replied the Aussie. "He don't speak English." ---------- We went to the movie the other night. I sat in an aisle seat as I usually do because it feels a little roomier. Just as the feature was about to start a baby boomer from the center of the row got up and started working her way out. 'Excuse me, sorry, oops, excuse me, pardon me, gotta hurry, oops, excuse me.' By the time she got to me I was trying to look around her and I was a little impatient so I said, 'Couldn't you have done this a little earlier?' 'No!!" she said in a loud whisper, 'The TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONE PLEASE message just flashed up on the screen and mine is out in the car.' ---------- As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says 'Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load.' The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, 'Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!' Shaking his head the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street. At the third red light, the same thing happens again. At the next light the trucker hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde. He knocks on her window, and as she lowers it, he says, 'Hi, my name is Kevin, it's winter in Canada and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!!!!!!' ---------- A couple decided to take their teenage daughter to a shopping mall in a nearby town one weekend. As they were getting ready to go, the girl came downstairs dressed in short shorts and a spaghetti string top. An anticipated fight broke out between the daughter and father over her inappropriate attire. In order to keep the peace, the mother stepped in and reminded her husband that when they were young she had dressed the same way, it was the style. He said, "Yeah! Well if you remember right I had something to say about that, too!" "Yes dear," she said, "you did... you asked me for my phone number!" --- ...LOL!

To have really clean teeth, it's worth considering how clean your toothbrush is. Given that apple cider vinegar has antibacterial properties, you can use it as a homemade cleaner for your toothbrush. To make your own toothbrush cleaner, mix half a cup of water with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 2 teaspoons of baking soda and mix well. Leave the head of your toothbrush in the mix for 30 minutes. Make sure you rinse your brush well before you use it, as the acidity of undiluted vinegar could damage your teeth. * To Trap Fruit Flies - Bye Bye Pesky Fly Fruit flies can be a pest. Interestingly, it's really easy to use apple cider vinegar to make a cheap fruit fly trap. Simply pour some apple cider vinegar into a cup, add a few drops of dish soap (so that any trapped flies sink) and you're good to go. * Wash fruits and vegetables? Say what??? Pesticide residue on fruits and vegetables can be a concern for many people. That's why some people like to wash their fruits and vegetables in apple cider vinegar. The hope is that it'll remove more of the chemical residues than water alone. Although it's not entirely clear if it will remove more pesticides than simply washing with water, it may help kill any dangerous bacteria on food. For example, washing foods in vinegar has been shown to remove dangerous bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella. * As a Deodorizer Apple cider vinegar is known to have antibacterial properties. Because of this, it's often claimed that apple cider vinegar can eliminate bad smells. There isn't any research to back up these claims, but you can try it out by mixing apple cider vinegar with water to make a deodorizing spray. This makes a natural alternative to odor neutralizers. You can also mix it with water and Epsom salts to make a foot soak, like this. This may help get rid of unwanted foot odor by killing off odor-causing bacteria. * To Make an All-Purpose Cleaner Apple cider vinegar is often a popular choice for a natural alternative to commercial cleaning agents. This is because of its antibacterial properties. Mix 1 cup of water with half a cup of apple cider vinegar, and you'll have a natural all-purpose cleaner. However, it's worth noting that although vinegars such as apple cider vinegar can kill some bacteria, they aren't as effective at killing harmful bacteria as commercial cleaning agents. * It can make your hair shine It can be used as a rinse for your hair after shampooing, and it will boost your hair's body and shine. I recommend recycling an old shampoo bottle, then filling it with 1/2 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and 1 cup of cold water. Pour the solution through your hair after shampooing. Do this several times a week for dramatic results. * It's an all-natural room freshener It will clean your toilets and leave your bathroom smelling like apples! Just pour it into the toilet, and allow it to sit overnight. It can also be used in dishwashers as a substitute for dish detergent. Mix 1/2 cup with 1 cup water, and you can use this solution to clean microwaves, kitchen surfaces, windows, glasses, and mirrors, too. * Great for Sunburns Some methods you can try include: - Filling a spray bottle with vinegar and water to spray on sunburned skin. - Dipping a washcloth in vinegar, wringing the cloth out, and patting it gently on the affected areas. - Taking a cool bath with diluted apple cider vinegar. Make sure the vinegar is well diluted! * Cleans humidifier Remove the filter and rinse with water. Then add apple cider vinegar to the tank of the humidifier and let sit for 30 minutes, swishing around occasionally. Rinse and dry. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: My Thoughts on Judge Kavanaugh - by emb This endless news over an unsubstantiated claim of S assault that was supposed to have occurred over 35 years ago is beyond appalling, it borders on insanity! What country do we live in where a man who has gone through 6 previous FBI security checks and has impeccable moral character can be tried in the political theater so harshly that he and his family suffer constant humiliation beyond compare and even death threats for something he has categorically denied ever happened? Even his accuser cannot verify any part of her accusations against him! It is outrageous and shows just how low the Democrats will go. I am sure they would not appreciate this happening to themselves or one of their best friends. The golden rule should make them see how evil this truly is. Marring a man's good name and reputation just for their own political means is not right! Let it happen to them and see how they feel! We are supposed to be INNOCENT Until proven guilty - NOT the other way around! I believe in Truth and Justice. Not this kangaroo political smearing in the news court! Check this Out: 'Judge Kavanaugh has impeccable credentials, unsurpassed qualifications, and a proven commitment to equal justice under the law. … There is no one in America more qualified for this position, and no one more deserving.' -President Donald J.

While I believe it’s important that victims be heard, I’m also incredibly worried about the future of our democracy looks like, where an accusation isn’t something to be investigated but it’s gospel truth. And as a mother to three young boys, it’s a scary thought; you are no longer innocent until proven guilty. The moment someone alleges something you are guilty and tried in the court of public opinion…well, only if you are a conservative. Sadly, what I think is happening in Washington, D.C. isn’t about the allegations, it’s about one thing - stopping a possible pro-life vote from the Supreme Court. The underlying reason pro-abortion politicians are risking their own credibility (if they had any left) is because nearly all of their biggest political victories over the last several years have happened because of a Supreme Court ruling, because of the opinion of five unelected justices. With poll after poll coming out telling us what we see everyday on campuses, that America is not on-board with Planned Parenthood's radical agenda, the abortion lobby knows that they must maintain their iron grip on the courts - and they see it eroding under President Trump.

At least across borders. Personally, I would rather pay the tax than do what these rather disgusting international gold smugglers did. A man has been arrested by the Customs department at the Indira Gandhi International airport here for allegedly trying to smuggle a kilogram of gold by hiding it in his rectum, an official statement said. The 24-year-old passenger was intercepted upon his arrival from Dubai. Upon a detailed examination of his baggage and a personal search, it was discovered that the accused had hidden nine gold bars, weighing 1.04 kg, inside his rectum, the statement said. What kind of baggage searches are they conducting in Delhi if they found the gold up there? The gold bars were seized and the passenger was arrested. In another case, a French national and an Indian were arrested for allegedly trying to smuggle gold into the country. One of them had come from Chennai, and the other, who holds a French passport, arrived here from Singapore. "A detailed baggage and personal search of the passengers resulted in the recovery of one gold bar and five gold biscuits weighing 1.5 kgs," the customs department said, adding that the duo were arrested and the gold was seized. The gold market in India must be really hot. *- McDonald's Pays Students $25,000 After Prank -* McDonald's paid $25,000 to two Texas college students who hung a fake poster of themselves in the eatery for months. Jevh Maravilla and Christian Toledo appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where DeGeneres informed them McDonald's had offered to pay them each $25,000 and feature them in an ad campaign. The prank went viral after Maravilla shared a photo of the poster, saying he wanted to boost Asian representation in the advertisement posters by placing the fake ad on a blank wall in the restaurant. The two friends went to their neighborhood event center to take photos of themselves holding McDonald's menu items and then printed them onto a large poster. Maravilla then purchased a McDonald's uniform from a local Goodwill store and printed a fake badge to pose as a "Regional Interior Coordinator," before returning to the restaurant to hang the poster on the blank wall. Maravilla said a representative from McDonald's corporate contacted him after the prank went viral and invited the friends to an event after the store after informing them they weren't in trouble. * Mom Arrested for Taking Teen Daughter's Phone * It can be hard disciplining teens. One Michigan mother thought she had a great solution when she confiscated her daughter's cell phone after she got in trouble at school. But Jodie May's ex-husband, who had given the phone to the girl, didn't think much of the plan and reported it to the police as a theft. May was nursing her 4-week-old baby when a deputy knocked on her door, telling her she'd be arrested on a misdemeanor theft charge. "He had told me that he was going to arrest me, and I asked him if I could turn myself in on that Monday by myself, that I had a new baby. She wasn't taking the bottle yet," she said. Her proposals weren't accepted. She was arrested and taken to a holding cell. That's good police work, right there. Just a few short minutes into the trial, the assistant prosecutor announced it was not theft, so the case was dismissed and May left the courthouse with a clean record. *- Carpool Scofflaw Tried to Trick Cops with Skeleton -* Police in Washington state shared three photos of creative carpool lane cheats -- including one who used a Halloween skeleton as a passenger. The Washington State Patrol shared three photos this week showing the faux-passengers that high- occupancy vehicle lane users used in unsuccessful attempts to ward off scrutiny from police. One of the photos featured a Halloween skeleton dressed in a jacket and a baseball cap. Another example shows a pillow dressed in a hoodie and holding a cup of coffee and a tablet. HOV lane violations are punished by a $136 fine in Washington state. ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend Johanna :) (_( ('') _ "\ )>,_ .--> _>--w/((_ >,_.' /// "`" -Naughty >THE DEVIL MADE ME SEND THIS ONE All arrivals in heaven have to go through a bureaucratic examination to determine whether admission will be granted.

I was so angry that I began bashing his fingers with a flower pot. He let go and fell, but his fall was broken by some awnings and bushes. On seeing he was still alive I found super human strength to drag our antique cedar chest to the balcony and throw it over. It hit the man and killed him. At this point the stress got to me and I suffered a massive heart attack and died." The clerk thanked him and sent him on to the next office. The second applicant said that his last day was his worst. "I was on the roof of an apartment building working on the AC equipment. I stumbled over my tools and toppled off the building. I managed to grab onto the balcony rail of a 9th floor apartment but some idiot came rushing out on the balcony and bashed my hands with a flower pot. I fell but hit some awnings and bushes and survived, but as I looked up I saw a huge chest falling toward me. I tried to crawl out of the way but failed and was hit and killed by the chest." The clerk couldn't help but chuckle as he directs the man to the next room. He is still giggling when his third customer of the day enters. He apologizes and says "I doubt that your last day was as interesting as the fellow in here just before you." "I don't know" replies the man, "picture this, I'm buck naked hiding in this cedar chest....." --- ...LMAO! A great classic!

Rather than call the state Supreme Court for a visiting judge, each agreed to hear the other's case. The first judge took the bench while the second stood at the defendant's table, and admitted his guilt. The sentencing judge immediately suspended both the fine and costs. They switched places. The second judge admitted that he was speeding, too. Thereupon the first judge immediately fined him $250 and ordered him to pay court costs. The second judge was furious. "I suspended your fine and costs, but you threw the book at me!" he fumed. The first judge looked at him and replied, "This is the second such case we've had in here today. Someone has to get tough about all this speeding!" -<>- Frequent hand washing in my job as a medical technologist and the harsh weather combined give me very dry skin. One night as I prepared for bed, I rubbed my hands with petroleum jelly and covered them with an old pair of white gloves. As I sat in bed reading a book with my gloves on, my husband finished showering and came into the room wearing a towel. Drying himself off, he went to the closet, selected a tie and put it on. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Well" he replied, "if you are going to be formal. So am I." -<>- The Wolf Man comes home one evening from a long day at the office. "How was work today, dear?" his wife asks. "Honey, please! I don't want to talk about work right now!" he shouts. "Okay. Would you like me to fix you something to eat? Or how about a drink?" she asks oh so nicely. "Listen," he shouts again, "I'm not hungry, I'm not thirsty! Is that alright with you? Can I come home from work and just do my own thing without you forcing food down my throat? huh?" At that very moment, the wolf man started growling, and throwing things around the apartment in a mad rage. Looking out the window, his wife sees a full moon and says to her- self, "Well, I guess it's that time of the month." -<>- One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?" The mother smiled. "I can't dear," she said. 'I have to sleep in Daddy's room." The little boy replied with a shaking voice, "The big sissy." -<>- I came home one night and my wife was crying. I said, "what's wrong?" She said, "I'm home sick." I said, "But, this IS your home."

The next thing they'll be selling is anti-perspirant to put under your car's fenders. * Traffic is always heavy in both directions. There are just as many people trying to get to whatever you're trying to get away from. * You have mixed feelings when you see an opening in rush hour traffic. You're glad for the opening, but you wonder who died. * It's useless to print roadmaps anymore. You just get on the highway and go wherever the other cars take you. * The only way to get home from work on time is to take the day off... even then, you're cutting it close. * Traffic is so bad nowadays, a pedestrian is someone in a hurry. * You can sit on the highways forever. In fact, some places have little exit ramps where you can pull over and make a car payment. * During rush hour the only way you can change lanes is to buy the car driving next to you. * Remember the good old days when traffic used to be bumper to bumper? Now it's windshield wiper to windshield wiper. * Our highways have become insane asylums with turn signals. ========================================================= >-->From TheMouth: ____ /\ __\_ / \/ \___\ \ /___/ /\_/ \ \ / \____\ ___/\ _ / / / \/ \ /_\/____/ \ / \___\ / \_/\ / / / \/___/ \ _ / / \/_| /___/ / \___\ \ /\_/___/ \/___/ [n4biS] >Things in Life I Learned from a Jigsaw Puzzle 1. Don't force a fit. If something is meant to be, it will come together naturally. 2. When things aren't going so well, take a break. Everything will look different when you return. 3. Be sure to look at the big picture. Getting hung up on the little pieces only leads to frustration. 4. Perseverance pays off. Every important puzzle went together bit by bit, piece by piece. 5. When one spot stops working, move to another. But be sure to come back later (see #4). 6. The creator of the puzzle gave you the picture as a guidebook. 7. Variety is the spice of life. It's the different colors and patterns that make the puzzle interesting. 8. Working together with friends and family makes any task fun. 9. Establish the border first. Boundaries give a sense of security and order. 10. Don't be afraid to try different combinations. Some matches are surprising. 11. Take time often to celebrate your successes (even little ones). 12. Anything worth doing takes time and effort. A great puzzle can't be rushed. -<>- .-------, ../ \ / , , , \ / , \__\___\ \ | | __ || __',. \ | \_'_/ \_'_/. | | (| v |) | , | | . | \ ~ / | | /. | | .\ . / ,/ |/ \| \, |, ( <-, \___/ ,-> ) | ,_ \ / _, .| | \ \ \ / / / | | | \ * / | | | | # | | (1/2 kl) >"Expert Opinions" Being an expert means never having to admit you're wrong. Here are some memorable examples of "expert opinion," quoted in a book called The Experts Speak, by Christopher Cerf and Victor Navasky.

Fallout may be good for us." --Edward Teller, 1950 On film: "The cinema is little more than a fad. It's canned drama. I'm going to get out of this business. It's too much for me. It'll never catch on." --Charlie Chaplin, 1914 "Gone with the Wind is going to be the biggest flop in the history of Hollywood. I'm just glad it'll be Clark Gable who's falling flat on his face and not Gary Cooper." --Gary Cooper, 1938 "You'd better learn secretarial work or else get married." --Emmeline Snively (modeling agent) to Marilyn Monroe, 1944 On technology: "Rail travel at high speed is not possible, because passengers, unable to breathe, would die of asphyxiation." --Dr. Dionysus Lardener, 1845 "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." --William Thomson, President of the Royal Society, 1890 On computers: "I think there is a world market for about five computers." --Thomas J.

Today, Facebook began testing its new product, Facebook Dating. And if the test goes well it could come to your phone soon.
