FinanceCharts.com says Investment research should be free. Investing
can be risky. You need as much information at your disposal as possible
in order to make the best decisions. If all the best financial
information is locked up behind a paywall then it becomes more difficult
to do the proper research. Simple price charts or other current metrics
just aren't enough for serious investors. We want to see years and years
of data, and we want it to be easy to digest. We also want to be able to
easily compare multiple companies at once. And it should be super fast
and free. We created a site that we actually want to use. Hopefully it
will help you as well. Visit here and Enjoy!

An accountant is in a car traveling with a farmer client around
his farm. They pass a large group of sheep and the farmer says,
"You're pretty good with numbers, Keith. How many sheep do you
reckon are in that paddock?"
The accountant looks at the sheep for a moment and says, "One
thousand, eight hundred and thirty two."
The farmer is amazed. "Exactly right," he says. "How did you
work that out so fast?"
"Easy," says the accountant, "I counted the number of feet and
divided by four."

A husband and wife went to the fairgrounds. The wife wanted to
go on the Ferris wheel, but the husband wasn't comfortable with
that. So the wife went on the ride by herself.
The wheel went round and round and suddenly the wife was thrown
out and landed in a heap at her husband's feet.
"Are you hurt?" he asked.
"Of course I'm hurt!" she replied. "Three times around and you
didn't wave once."

On day when returning home from work my wife proceeded to
tell me that she had been called into the principal's office
because of the things OUR SON had done at school that day.
We agreed that he should be disciplined the same way I was
disciplined when I was his age: being sent to my room
without supper.
But in my son's room, he has his own color TV, telephone,
computer, and CD player. So what is a parent to do in this
day and age?
We sent him to MY room!

>MR. MCCUTCHEON'S VISIT
By Dr. Michael A. Halleen
"Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before;
and God will call the past to account." (Ecclesiastes 3:15)
Some months ago I confessed to my daughter my regret that I had
failed to take the opportunity I once had to attend Harvard. I
was caught short by her reply: "But Dad, then you wouldn't have
met Mom!" We were both struck by the implications: if I had gone
to any other college, Barb and I would probably never have met,
and our children - and their children - would never have been born.
Each life hinges on a thousand million small moments - a step taken
left or right, a decision made yes or no, a chance encounter, an
impulse followed or ignored, a near miss. What we are today - even
the fact that we are today - is the end result of those moments.
William McCutcheon was mayor of North Branch, Minnesota in 1884.
He had a wealthy brother living in New York whose wife was unable
to bear children.
It happened occasionally at that time that childless couples would
approach large immigrant families and offer to adopt one of their
children, providing financial help and promising a good home for
the child. And so it was that one afternoon McCutcheon stood in
the small front room of a Swedish family that had immigrated the
year prior and offered, in behalf of his brother and sister-in-law,
to adopt Tony, the oldest of this family's seven children.
The boy's mother, a quiet, shy woman who appeared older than her 34
years, found tears coming to her gray-green eyes. Life was a
constant struggle in this frontier wilderness. They were barely
making it. She gazed for a moment out the window, perhaps looking
down the years to her son's future.
Then she placed her small, weathered hands on young Tony's head
and, through the lump in her throat, said, "Mr. McCutcheon, if
God strengthens these hands, somehow we'll get along." McCutcheon
nodded, smiled, and stepped out the door.
Tony became my grandfather.
Each of our histories is the sum of yesterday's choices. Some we
made, some were made for us. We are the products of their
multiplying one upon another, and we can only accept that our
histories are what they are. But many more such moments will
occur, even between today and tomorrow. We do well to consider
that today's choices - may God strengthen our hands as we make
them - will send ripples into the future that roll right up to the
shores of eternity.

~ You sometimes rinse off in the backyard with a garden hose before
your wife lets you in the house.
~ You've never thrown away a 5-gallon bucket.

~ You remember the fertilizer rate, seed population, and yields for

A man was seen fleeing down the hall of the hospital just before
his operation. "What's the matter?" he was asked.
He said, "I heard the nurse say, 'It's a very simple operation,
don't worry, I'm sure it will be all right.'"
"She was just trying to comfort you, what's so frightening about
that?"
"She wasn't talking to me. She was talking to the doctor!"
--------
An elderly lady buys a pair of parrots, but cannot identify their
gender. She calls the shop, and the man there advises her to
watch them carefully and all would become clear in time.
She spends weeks staring at the cage, eventually catches them
doing what comes naturally.
To make sure she doesn't get them mixed up again, she cuts a ring
from a piece of cardboard and places it round the male parrot's
neck.
A while later, the local priest visits the old lady. The male
parrot takes one look at the father's collar, wolf-whistles, and
squawks, "I see she caught YOU at it, too...."
--------
At the end of the workday, one cowboy tells another, "That new
bull nearly did me in today, partner."
"Oh yeah? What happened?"
"I was putting out the feed, when the sucker came charging at me
like a locomotive from hell. He darn' near got me!"
"So, how'd you get away?"
"Well the bull kept slipping. He slipped three times, and that
gave me a chance to make it to the fence and jump over."
"Man, that's scary! If it'd been me, I would probably have
crapped all over the place!"
"I did! What do you think the bull was slipping on?"
--------
While a man was dying, his wife was maintaining a candlelight
vigil by his side. She held his fragile hand, tears running down
her face. Her praying woke him from his slumber.
He looked up, and his pale lips began to move slightly. "My
darling," he whispered.
"Hush, my love," she replied. "Rest, don't talk."
He was insistent. "But I have something that I must confess," he
said in a tired voice.
"There isn't anything to confess," replied his weeping wife.
"Everything's ok. Go to sleep."
The man blurted out: "No, no, I must die in peace. I slept with
your sister, your best friend, her best friend and your mother!"
"I know," whispered his wife. "Just lie back, now, and let the
poison do its work."
--------
One day, a saleswoman promoting Avon knocked at his door and
asked to see his wife, so the guy told her that she wasn't home.
"Well," the woman said, "could I please wait for her?"
The man directed her to the drawing room and left her there for
more than three hours.
After feeling really worried, she called out for him an asked,
"May I ask where your wife is?"
"She went to the cemetery," he replied.
"And when is she coming back?"
"I don't really know," he said. "She's been there eleven years!"

The flight was coming into Dallas when a combination of
mechanical errors and unstable weather caused the plane to
start plummeting to the ground!
The pilot feverishly worked his controls, and finally, the
engines roared back to life in time to prevent the plane from
going splat on the ground!
As the plane landed, airport officials rushed to the
disembarking gate and were stunned to see 200 midgets shakily
get off the plane.
Finally the crew got off the plane and the local manager of
the airline came up to congratulate him on his perseverance
under extreme odds.
As the official and the pilot were talking, the official
commented how unusual it was that there were so many midgets
on the flight.
"Those weren't midgets," the pilot replied. Those were
politicians with all the heck scared out of them!"

Bill and Jack went into a diner that looked as though it had
seen better days. As they slid in to a booth, Bill wiped
some crumbs from the seat. Then he took a napkin, wiping
some moisture from the table. The waitress came over and
asked if they wanted some menus.
"No thanks," replied Jack. "I'll just have a cup of black
coffee."
"I'll have black coffee, too," Bill added. "And please...
make sure the cup is clean."
The waitress shot him a nasty look. She turned and marched
off into the kitchen. BUT...
Two minutes later, she was back. "Two cups of black coffee,"
she announced. "Which one of you wanted the clean cup?"

A Sunday School teacher asked her class why Joseph and Mary
took Jesus with them to Jerusalem.

coo_n baby and bottle
An engineer was on a tour of a factory that produced latex
products. He's shown a machine that manufactures baby-bottle
nipples. The machine makes a loud hiss-pop noise.
"The hiss is the rubber being injected into the mold," explains
the guide. "The popping sound is a needle poking a hole in the
end of the nipple."
Later, the tour reaches the section of the plant where condoms
are manufactured.
The machine makes a noise: 'Hiss. Hiss. Hiss. Hiss-pop!'
"Wait a minute!" says the engineer to the tour guide, " I
understand what the 'hiss, hiss,' is, but what's that 'pop!'
every so often?"
"Oh, it's just the same as in the baby-bottle nipple machine,"
says the guide. "It rotates a needle punch that pokes a hole in
every sixth condom."
"Well, that can't be very good good for the quality-control

A young woman walking in the park one day accidentally stepped
on a frog. She picked it up and took it home.
That night, she put it under her pillow and the next morning
the frog was gone and there was a handsome young man sleeping
beside her.
She could not believe it....
Neither did her mother and father!

>Avoid These 10 Common Lawn Care Mistakes for a Healthier Lawn
Maintaining a healthy, lush lawn requires more than just occasional
mowing and watering. Unfortunately, many homeowners make common
mistakes that can hinder the growth and beauty of their lawns. Here
are ten of the most frequent errors people make when it comes to
lawn care:
1. Mowing Too Short
One of the biggest mistakes people make is mowing their lawn too
short, known as "scalping." Cutting grass too short stresses the
lawn, leaving it more vulnerable to disease, weeds, and drought.
The general rule is to mow no more than one-third of the grass
height at a time, leaving the grass blades longer to encourage
deeper roots and healthier growth.
2. Over-Watering or Under-Watering
Finding the right balance in watering is crucial. Over-watering can
lead to shallow root growth and increase the likelihood of fungal
diseases, while under-watering results in dry, brown patches. It's
best to water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out
between waterings. Early morning is the best time to water to
reduce evaporation and fungal growth.
3. Neglecting Soil Health
The health of your lawn starts with the soil. Many people forget to
test their soil regularly and don't amend it when necessary. Soil
that is too acidic or alkaline can inhibit grass growth. Regular
soil tests help you understand its pH and nutrient levels, allowing
you to add the right amendments, like lime for acidity or sulfur
for alkalinity, to improve grass health.
4. Mowing with Dull Blades
Using dull mower blades rips rather than cuts the grass, causing
jagged edges that are more prone to disease and pests. Sharp
blades ensure clean cuts that promote better recovery and a
healthier lawn. Make sure to sharpen your mower blades regularly
for optimal results.
5. Not Aerating the Lawn
Aeration involves perforating the soil with small holes to allow
air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots. Without
aeration, the soil can become compacted, especially in high-
traffic areas, leading to poor root growth. Aerating your lawn
once or twice a year, particularly in the spring or fall, can
significantly improve its overall health.

What do you do when you REALLY need to get to the bar, but
it's 15 miles away and you don't have any transportation.
Well, if you're this innovator you don't hitchhike, or call
an UBER, or even steal a car. No, if you're going to make
it to the bar you're going to make a statement while doing
it in a stolen fire truck.
An Alaska man stole a fire truck from the King Salmon Fire
Station and drove 15 miles with lights flashing to a bar
where he was arrested, police said.
Dawson Cody Porter, 22, used a piece of lumber to break a
window of the fire station and made his way inside the
building around 9 p.m., the Bristol Bay Borough Police
Department said in an online statement. Once inside, Porter
started a fire truck and drove it THROUGH the station's
closed bay doors. Police Chief John Rhyshek said no one was
in the building when Porter broke in.
Porter switched on the fire truck's emergency overhead
lights and headed west toward Naknek, 15 miles down the
Alaska Peninsula Highway. Rhyshek estimates that Porter was
driving the fire truck for less than a half hour before he
parked in front of the Fisherman's Bar.
Unfortunately, the hero never made it inside. Two Bristol
Bay officers made contact with Porter before he got out of
the fire truck and he was arrested outside the bar,
Rhyshek said.
It's unclear why Porter stole the firetruck and headed to
the Naknek bar, but Rhyshek said the investigation is
ongoing. In total, Porter caused roughly $10,000 worth of
damage and made it so the firetruck, which is valued at
about $100,000, was out of service temporarily as it
awaited necessary repairs.
*--- Grandma got gored by a bison ---*
A 72-year-old California woman trying to take photos of
a bison was gored by the animal at Yellowstone National
Park, park officials said. The woman, who was not
identified, "sustained multiple goring wounds" and was
flown to an Idaho hospital. She "approached within 10
feet of a bison multiple times to take its photo," the
park service said in a statement. The bison most likely
felt threatened after being repeatedly approached,
Yellowstone Senior Bison Biologist Chris Geremia said
in the statement. The park urges people to stay away
from wildlife and to keep at a minimum of 25 yards away
from animals like bison and elk. "Bison are wild animals
that respond to threats by displaying aggressive
behaviors," Geremia said in the statement. "If that
doesn't make the threat (in this instance it was a person)
move away, a threatened bison may charge." Bison attacks
on humans have occurred in Yellowstone before, including
just last month. They are massive animals, and bull bisons
can weigh up to 2,000 pounds. A bison can run at speeds up
to 35 mph, the park says.
*- 'Merman Mike' recovers $17,000 ring from bottom of river -*
A California diver known as "Merman Mike" plunged into the
Sacramento River and was able to recover a lost ring worth
$17,000. Mike Pelley, who uses the alias "Merman Mike" said
he was approached by a man named Bill Fitty who heard about
his underwater exploits and needed help finding a lost item.
Fitty said that he had dropped a ring into the Sacramento River
that was worth about $17,000. Pelley said his first dive came
up empty, so he dropped a brick into the water in the same spot
where Fitty lost the ring, so he would have a better idea of
where to look. Pelley surfaced from his second dive with the
ring in his hand. Fitty said he wanted to reward Pelley with
$1,500 to buy an underwater metal detector for future dives.
Pelley said the metal detector will help him on the search for
two wedding rings he has been trying to find for their owners.

My 7-year-old daughter came home from school one day, held
up her middle finger, and asked me what it meant. I was so
shocked that I could say only, "Shame on you," followed by,
"If anyone does that to you, just say, "Shame on you" to
that person.
Next week we were at the dinner table when my husband let
out a huge belch. I reprimanded him by saying, "Shame on
you."
Imagine my husband's shock when my daughter held up her
middle finger, showed it to him, and exclaimed, "Mom, you
forgot to give Daddy the 'shame on you' sign."

A New York retail clerk was suffering from aching feet.
"It's all those years of standing," his doctor declared.
"You need a vacation. Go to Miami, soak your feet in the
ocean and you'll feel better."
When the man got to Florida, he went into a hardware store,
bought two large buckets and headed for the beach.
"How much for two buckets of that seawater?" he asked the
lifeguard.
"A dollar a bucket," the fellow replied with a straight face.
The clerk paid him, filled his buckets, went to his hotel
room and soaked his feet. They felt so much better he
decided to repeat the treatment that afternoon. Again he
handed the lifeguard two dollars. The young man took the
money and said, "Help yourself."
The clerk started for the water, then stopped in amazement.
The tide was out. "Wow," he said, turning to the lifeguard.
"Some business you got here!"

While visiting Annapolis, a lady tourist noticed several
students on their hands and knees assessing the courtyard
with pencils and clipboards in hand.
"What are they doing?" she asked the tour guide.
"Each year," he replied with a grin, "the upperclassmen ask
the freshmen how many bricks it took to finish paving this
courtyard."
When they were out of earshot of the freshmen, the curious
lady asked the guide: "So, what's the answer?"
The guide replied: "One."

As a jet was flying over Arizona on a clear day, the copilot
was providing his passengers with a running commentary about
landmarks over the PA system.
"Coming up on the right, you can see the Meteor Crater,
which is a major tourist attraction in northern Arizona.
It was formed when a lump of nickel and iron, roughly 150
feet in diameter and weighing 300,000 tons, struck the
earth 50,000 years ago at about 40,000 miles an hour,
scattering white-hot debris for miles in every direction.
The hole measures nearly a mile across and is 570 feet
deep."
The lady sitting next to me exclaimed: "Wow, look! It just
missed the highway!"

One afternoon, while touring the Canyonlands of southern
Utah, my husband and I pulled into the only hotel in a
small town. While signing the register, we asked the young
woman behind the desk if our room was air-conditioned.
When she shook her head no, we hesitated, wondering if we
should push on to the next town. Sensing our doubt, she
brightened as she came up with a solution. "Just turn on
the heater," she suggested. "Our customers tell us all that
comes out is cold air anyway."

Most people assume WWJD is for "What would Jesus do?" But
the initials really have been changed to stand for "What
would Jesus drive?"
One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old
Plymouth because the Bible says, "God drove Adam and Eve
out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury."
But in Psalm 83, the Almighty clearly owns a Pontiac and
a Geo. The passage urges the Jesus to "pursue your enemies
with your Tempest and terrify them with your Storm."
Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup trucks, because Moses'
followers are warned not to go up a mountain "until the
Ram's horn sounds a long blast."
Some scholars insist that Jesus drove a Honda but didn't
like to talk about it. As proof, they cite a verse in St.
John's gospel where Christ tells the crowd, "For I did not
speak of my own Accord..."
Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as
evidenced by a Bible passage declaring that "the roar of
Moses' Triumph is heard in the hills."
Joshua drove a Triumph sports car with a hole in its
muffler: "Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the land."
And, following Jesus' lead, the Apostles car pooled in a
Honda... "The Apostles were in one Accord."

A couple was arranging for their wedding, and asked the bakery
to inscribe the wedding cake with "1 John 4:18" which reads
"There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear."
The bakery evidently lost, smudged or otherwise misread the
noted reference, and beautifully inscribed on the cake
"John 4:18" ...
"for you have had five husbands, and the man you have now is
not your husband."

An out-of-towner in New York at the height of the tourist season
decided to revisit an uptown restaurant he'd enjoyed on a previous
trip to the city.
Finally catching the eye of an overworked waiter, he said, "You

"You'll have to wait your turn, sir," replied the busy waiter.
"I can only serve one table at a time."

I recall a story my father used to tell about a pastor who had been
at a church for 20 years. To show their appreciation for all his
years of faithful service, the congregation decided to collect an
offering and buy him a new car. So on the Sunday of his anniversary
they had a special reception in honor of the pastor and his wife.
Lots of visitors come in for the occasion. Near the end of the
reception, the chairman of the the deacons got up and presented the
keys to a brand new Lincoln Town Car to the pastor.
The pastor was so overwhelmed he really did not know what to say.
After taking a few moments to collect himself, he addressed the
congregation and said, "I just want you to know that I really do not
appreciate this, but I sure do deserve it!"

>The Husband Shopping Center
There was a "Husband Shopping Center" where a woman could go to
choose a husband from among many men.
It was laid out in five floors, with the men increasing in positive
attributes as you ascended up the floors. The only rule was, once
you opened the door to any floor, you must choose a man from that
floor, and if you went up a floor, you couldn't go back down except
to leave the place.
So, a couple of girlfriends go to the place to find men.
First floor: The door had a sign saying "These men have jobs and love
kids".
The women read the sign and say, "Well that's better than not having
jobs, or not loving kids, but I wonder what's further up?" So up they
go.
Second floor says "These men have high paying jobs, love kids, and
are extremely good looking". Hummm, say the girls but, I wonder
what's further up?
Third floor: "These men have high paying jobs, are extremely good
looking, love kids and help with the housework". "WOW!" say the
women. Very tempting, BUT, there's more further up! And up they go.
Fourth Floor: "These men have high paying jobs, love kids, are
extremely good looking, help with the housework, and have a strong
romantic streak".
"Oh mercy me, But just think! What must be awaiting us further up!"
So, up to the fifth floor they go.
Fifth floor: The sign on the door said "This floor is just to prove
that women are impossible to please. Please exit the building and
have a nice day".

A curious fellow died one day and found himself waiting
in a long, long line for judgment. As he stood there he
noticed that some souls were allowed to march right
through the Gates of Heaven; others, though, were led
over to Satan, who threw them into a burning pit of
fire.
Every so often, instead of hurling a poor soul into the
fire, Satan would toss him (or her) to one side. After
watching Satan do this several times, the fellow's
curiosity got the better of him and he strolled over
and tapped Satan on the shoulder.
"Excuse me, there, Prince of Darkness," he said. "I'm
waiting in line for judgment, but I couldn't help
wondering why you are tossing those people aside
instead of flinging them into the fires of hell with
the others?"
"Ah", Satan said with a grin. "They are people from
North Carolina; they're still too wet to burn!"

Bubba and Jake chartered a plane with a pilot to drop
them off in the wilds of Alaska for a week of elk
hunting, just the same as they did the year before.
When the pilot returned with the plane Bubba exclaimed
joyfully to the pilot, "We had a great hunting trip! We
bagged four elk!" The pilot regretfully explained,
"Unfortunately, our plane can only fly with the weight
of two elk. You'll have to leave the other two behind."
Bubba and Jake were both infuriated and insistent. "We
won't allow you to fly this plane out without all four
elk," Jake demanded.
The eager to please pilot relented and the plane took
off with the three of them and their four elk. About
fifteen minutes into the flight the engine started to
sputter, and within seconds they were hurtling to the
ground.
Wearily arising from the wreckage, Bubba looked at Jake
and wheezed, "Do you have any idea where we are?"
Jake, quite pleased with himself, replied, "Yes! We're
about a mile from where we crashed last year."

The Images of a Mother:
-----------------------
4 YEAR OLD: My Mommy can do anything!
8 YEAR OLD: My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!
12 YEAR OLD: My Mother doesn't really know
quite everything.
14 YEAR OLD: Naturally, my Mother doesn't know
that, either.
16 YEAR OLD: Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned.
18 YEAR OLD: That old woman? She's way out of date!
25 YEAR OLD: Well, she might know a little bit about it.
35 YEAR OLD: Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.
45 YEAR OLD: Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?
55 YEAR OLD: Wish I could talk it over with Mom...

Here are some jewels from a book called "A Wife's Little Instruction
Book" by Diana Jordan and Paul Seaburn. Some kind soul gave it to my
wife.
Men like dogs better than they like women because a dog is happy when
men leave the toilet seat up.
Most men feel that if God had wanted us to use tissues, She wouldn't
have given them fingers.
A man hates it when a woman cries because he's afraid he's to blame.
And he's right.
There's a commercial where guys sit around drinking beer, cleaning
fish, and wiping their noses on their sleeves. That's not a
commercial. That's a *warning.*
Don't let a man go alone to pick out an engagement ring. He'll do
something stupid, like pick one he can afford.
When you want your husband to play with you, wear a full-length black
nightgown with buttons all over it. Sure, it's uncomfortable, but it
makes you look just like his remote control.

>The 5 stages of drunkenness
Stage 1 - "SMART"
This is when you suddenly become an expert on every subject in the
known Universe. You know you know everything and want to pass on your
knowledge to anyone who will listen. At this stage you are always
RIGHT. And of course the person you are talking to is very WRONG.
This makes for an interesting argument when both parties are "SMART".
Stage 2 - "GOOD LOOKING"
This is when you realize that you are the BEST LOOKING person in the
entire bar and that people fancy you. You can go up to a perfect
stranger knowing they fancy you and really want to talk to you.
Bear in mind that you are still "SMART", so you can talk to this
person about any subject under the sun.
Stage 3 - "RICH"
This is when you suddenly become the richest person in the world.
You can buy drinks for the entire bar because you have an armored
truck full of money parked behind the bar. You can also make bets
at this stage, because of course, you are still "SMART", so
naturally you win all your bets. It doesn't matter how much you bet
'cos you are "RICH". You will also buy drinks for everyone that you
fancy, because now you are the "BEST LOOKING" person in the world.
Stage 4 - "BULLET PROOF"
You are now ready to pick fights with anyone and everyone especially
those with whom you have been betting or arguing. This is because
nothing can hurt you. At this point you can also go up to the
partners of the people who you fancy and challenge them to a battle
of wits or money. You have no fear of losing this battle because you
are "SMART", you are "RICH" and heck, you're "BETTER LOOKING" than
they are anyway!
Stage 5 - "INVISIBLE"
This is the Final Stage of Drunkenness. At this point you can do
anything because NO ONE CAN SEE YOU. You dance on a table to impress
the people who you fancy because the rest of the people in the room
cannot see you. You are also invisible to the person who wants to
fight you. You can walk through the street singing at the top of
your lungs because no one can see or hear you and because you're
still "SMART" you know all the words.
