A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife. A successful man is one who makes more money that his wife can spend .A successful woman is one who can find such a man. To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot & not try to understand her at all. Married men lived longer than single man, but married men are a lot more willing to die. Any married man should forget his mistakes, there's no use in two people remembering the same thing. Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed. Women somehow deteriorate during the night. A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't. A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does. A woman has the last word in any argument, Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Kids say the darnedest things. Here are some tips from kids on subjects of romance. HOW DOES A PERSON DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? "You flip a nickel, and heads means you stay with him and tails means you try the next one." Kally, age 9 "You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming." Allan, age 10 "No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you got to find out later who you're stuck with." Kirsten, age 10 WHAT'S THE PROPER AGE TO GET MARRIED? "Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then!" Cam, age 10 "No age is good to get married at.... You got to be a fool to get married!" Freddie, age 6 HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED? "Married people usually look happy to talk to other people." Eddie, age 6 "You might have to guess based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids." Derrick, age 8 WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON? "Both don't want no more kids." Lori, age 8 WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE? "Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough." Lynnette, age 8 "On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date." Martin, age10 WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE? "I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns." Craig, age 9 WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE? "When they're rich!" Pam, age 7 "The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that." Curt, age 7 "The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them.... It's the right thing to do." Howard, age 8 IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED? "I don't know which is better, but I'll tell you one thing: I'm never going to make love with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed out!" Theodore, age 8 "It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need somebody to clean up after them!" Anita, age 9 "Single is better ... for the simple reason that I wouldn't want to change no diapers... Of course, if I did get married, I'd figure something out. I'd just phone my mother and have her come over for some coffee and diaper-changing." Kirsten, age 10 WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR A YOUNG COUPLE ABOUT TO BE MARRIED? "The first thing I'd say to them is: 'Listen up, young'uns... I got something to say to you. Why in the heck do you wanna get married, anyway?'"

Lori, age 8 ABOUT GETTING MARRIED FOR A SECOND TIME "Most men are brainless, so you might have to try more than one to find a live one." Angie L., age 10 HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED? "There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?" Kelvin, age 8
Retirement plan An old lady is rocking away the last of her days on her front porch, reflecting
on her long life, when --all of a sudden-- a fairy godmother appears in front of her and
informs her that she will be granted three Her rocking chair turns to solid gold. "And...gee, I guess I wouldn't mind being a young, beautiful princess" ~~POOF~~ She turns into a beautiful young woman. "Your third wish?" asks the fairy godmother. Just then the old woman's cat wanders across the porch in front of them. "Ooh, can you change him into a handsome prince?" she asks. There before her stands a young man more handsome than anyone could possibly imagine. She stares at him, smitten. With a smile that makes her knees weak, he saunters across the porch and whispers in her ear. "I bet you're sorry you had me neutered."
FOUR strangers traveled together in the same compartment of a European train. Two men and two women faced each other. One woman was a very wealthy and sophisticated 75 year old lady who was decked out in the finest of furs and jewelry. Next to her sat a beautiful young woman, nineteen yrs. old--who looked like something right off the cover of a fashion magazine. Across from the older lady was a man in his late-forties who was a highly decorated Sergeant Major in the Army. And next to the Sergeant Major sat a young private fresh out of boot camp. As these four strangers traveled, they talked and chatted about trivial things until they entered an unlighted tunnel, and there they sat in complete darkness and total silence, until the sound of a distinct kiss broke the silence; following the kiss a loud slap could be heard throughout the cabin. In the ensuing period of silence the four strangers sat quietly with their own thoughts. ----------------------------------------- The older lady was thinking, "Isn't it wonderful that even in this permissive day and age there are still young women who have a little self-respect and dignity?" ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------
One Friday morning, a teacher came up with a novel way to motivate her class. She told them that she would read a quote and the first student to correctly identify who said it would receive the rest of the day off. She started with "This was England's finest hour." Little Suzy instantly jumped up and said, " Winston Churchill." "Congratulations said the teacher you may go home." The teacher then said, "Ask not what your country can do for you." Before she could finish this quote, another young lady belts out, "John F. Kennedy". "Very good" says the teacher, "you may go." Irritated that he has missed two golden opportunities, Little Johnny said, "I wish those little twits would just shut the hell up." Upon overhearing this rude comment, the outraged teacher demanded to know who said it. Johnny instantly rose to his feet and said, "Bill Clinton." "I'll see you Monday..."
An elderly man was walking through the French countryside, admiring the beautiful spring day, when over a hedgerow he spotted a young couple making love in a field. Getting over his initial shock he said to himself, "Ah, young love... ze spring time, ze air, ze flowers... C'est magnifique!" and continued to watch, remembering good times. Suddenly he drew in a gasp and said, "Mais... Sacre bleu! Ze woman - she is dead!" and he hurried along as fast as he could to the town to tell Jean, the police chief. He came, out of breath, to the police station and shouted, "Jean...Jean zere is zis man, zis woman ... in farmer Gaston's field making love." The police chief smiled and said; "Come, come, Henri you are not so old; remember ze young love, ze spring time, ze air, ze flowers? Ah, L'amour! Zis is okay." "Mais non! You do not understand; ze woman, she is dead!" Hearing
this, Jean leapt up from his seat, rushed out of the station, jumped on his bike, pedaled
down to the field, confirmed Henri's story, and pedaled all the way back non-stop to call
the doctor: "Pierre, Pierre, To which Pierre replied,"Jean, I am a man of science. You must remember, it is spring, ze air, ze flowers, Ah, L'amour! Zis is very natural." Jean, still out of breath, grasped in reply, "NON, you do not understand; ze woman, she is dead!" Hearing this, Pierre exclaimed, "Mon dieu!" grabbed his black
medicine bag; stuffed in his thermometer, stethoscope, and other tools; jumped in the car;
and drove like a madman down to Gaston's field. After
Once upon a time, a perfect man and a perfect
woman met. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was,
of course, perfect. One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve, this perfect couple was driving their
perfect car (a Ferrari 355) along a winding Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help. There stood Santa Claus with a
huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the
perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along The perfect woman survived. She's the only one who really existed in the first place. Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man.
****Men keep scrolling.
So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have
been driving. This explains why there was a car accident. By the way, if you're a woman

More Clinton, Yes, More Clinton Chrysler Corporation is adding a new car to its line to honor Bill Clinton. The Dodge Draft will begin production in Canada this year. When Clinton was asked what he thought about foreign affairs, he replied, "I don't know. I never had one." If you came across Bill Clinton struggling in a raging river and you had a choice between rescuing him or getting a Pulitzer prize-winning photograph, what shutter speed would you use? Clinton's mother prayed fervently that Bill would grow up and be president. So far, half of her prayer has been answered. The American Indians have nicknamed Bill Clinton as "Walking Eagle" because he is so full of _ _ _ _ that he can't fly. Isn't putting Bill Clinton in charge of a trust fund as insane as putting in a draft-dodger as Commander in Chief? Clinton only lacks three things to become one of America's finest leaders: Integrity, vision, and wisdom. Asked about his views on euthanasia, Clinton replied, "Youth in Asia are just like kids everywhere else." Clinton is doing the work of 3 men: Larry, Curly, and Moe. Did you hear what Gennifer Flowers said when asked if her relations with Bill Clinton were similar to Monica's? "Close but no cigar!"
Parrot Joke A lady approaches her priest and tells him, "Father, I have a problem. I have two female talking parrots, but they only know how to say one thing" "What do they say?" the priest inquired. "They only know how to say, 'Hi we're the (fun girls)*. Do you want to have some fun?'" "That's terrible!" the priest exclaimed, "but I have a solution
to your problem. Bring your two female parrots over to my house and I will put them with
my two male talking parrots who I taught to pray and read the bible. My parrots will teach
your parrots to stop saying that "Thank you!" the woman responded. The next day, the lady brings her female parrots to the priest's house. His two
male parrots are holding rosary beads and praying in their cage. The lady puts her female
parrots in with the male parrots and the female parrots say, "Hi, we're the (fun
girls)*. Do you want to One male parrot looks over at the other male parrot and exclaims, "Put the beads away. Our prayers have been answered!"

Subject: 1812 overture - please don't try this at home August, 1998, Montevideo, Uruguay Paolo Esperanza, bass-trombonist with the Simphonica Mayor de Uruguay, in a
misplaced moment of inspiration decided to make his own contribution to the cannon shots
fired as part of the orchestra's performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture at an outdoor
children's Later, from his hospital bed he explained to a reporter through bandages on his
mouth, "I thought that the bell of my trombone would shield me from the explosion and
instead, would focus the energy of the blast outwards and away from me, propelling the
mute high above What actually happened should serve as a lesson to us all during those
delirious moments of divine inspiration. First, because he failed to sufficiently elevate
the bell of his horn, the blast propelled the mute between rows of players in the woodwind
and viola sections of the Fortunately, the audience were sitting in folding chairs and thus they were
protected from serious injury, for the chairs collapsed under them passing the energy of
the impact of the flying conductor backwards into row of people sitting behind them, who
in turn were driven back into the people in the row behind and so on, like a row of
dominos. The sound of collapsing wooden chairs and grunts of people falling on their
behinds increased logarithmically, adding to the overallsound of brass cannons and brass
playing as constitutes the closing Meanwhile, all of this unplanned choreography not withstanding, back on stage Paolo's Waterloo was still unfolding. According to Paolo, "Just as the I heard the sound of the blast, time seemed to stand still. Everything moved in slow motion. Just before I felt searing pain to my mouth, I could swear I heard a voice with a Austrian accent say "Fur every akshon zer iz un eekvul un opposeet reakshon!" Well, this should come as no surprise, for Paolo had set himself up for a textbook demonstration of this fundamental law of physics. Having failed to plug the lead pipe of his trombone, he allowed the energy of the blast to send a super heated jet of gas backwards through the mouth pipe of the trombone which exited the mouthpiece burning his lips and face. The pyrotechnic ballet wasn't over yet. The force of the blast was so great it split the bell of his shiny Yamaha right down the middle, turning it inside out while at the same time propelling Paolo backwards off the riser. And for the grand finale, as Paolo fell backwards he lost his grip on the slide of the trombone allowing the pressure of the hot gases coursing through the horn to propel the trombone's slide like a double golden spear into the head of the 3rd clarinetist, knocking him unconscious. The moral of the story? Beware the next time you hear someone in the trombone section yell out "Hey, everyone, watch this!
THANKSGIVING FORECAST In the pre-Thanksgiving rush, we have received an early weather report from our in-house weather reporters. This is one, you should be sure to email your Mom. Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder. During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will slice
through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on plates. Mashed
potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will be
established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50 percent chance of
scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops. By early

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her name plate that the teller's name is Patricia Whack.

The teller asks his name and the frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger and that it's OK, he knows the bank manager. Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan. She asks if he has anything he can use as collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall, Bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says: "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. And he wants to use this as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what on earth is this?" So the bank manager looks back at her and says: "It's a knick knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."

Subject: THE game week humor At their annual meeting before the beginning of the season, the top 20 coaches decided to install golden telephones in their office. Sam, a star recruit, was taking an official visit to Penn State. He walked into coach Paterno's office and immediately asked what the golden telephone was for. Coach Paterno replied "It's a direct line to heaven." Sam became very excited and asked if he could make a call. JoPa said "Sure, but it will cost $100 and the check can be made payable to the PSU athletic foundation." Sam said, "Wow! That's a lot of money. I'll have to pass." On Sam's next visit, to Michigan this time, he saw an identical golden phone and asked coach Carr what the phone was for. Coach Carr replied "It's a direct line to heaven, and a call will cost only $50 and the check can be made out to the Michigan Athletic Foundation." Sam replied, "That's a lot of money. I'll have to pass." On Sam's final official visit, to Ohio State now, he saw the same golden phone. He asked how much to it would cost to make a call. Coach Cooper replied, "Only a quarter." Sam became very excited and asked Coach Cooper why his golden phone only cost a quarter. Coach Cooper replied, "Because it's a local call!"

"Three Vampires at the Bar" Three vampires went into a bar and sat down. The barmaid came over to take their orders. "And what would you, er, gentlemen like tonight?" The first vampire said, "I'll have a mug of blood." The second vampire said, "I'll have a mug of blood." The third vampire shook his head at his companions and said, "I will have a glass of plasma." The barmaid wrote down each order, went to the bar and called to the bartender, "Two bloods and a blood light!"
And Still More Bat Stuff... "A Bloody Nose" A vampire bat came flapping in from the night covered in fresh blood and parked himself on the roof of the cave to get some sleep. Pretty soon all the other bats smelled the blood and began hassling him about where he got it. He told them to go away and let him get some sleep. However, the bats persisted until finally he gave in. "OK, follow me," he said and flew out of the cave with hundreds of bats behind him. Down through a valley they went, across a river and into a forest full of trees. Finally he slowed down and all the other bats excitedly milled around him. "Now, do you see that tree over there?" he asked. "Yes, yes, yes!" the bats all screamed in a hungry frenzy. "Good," said the first bat tiredly, "Because I didn't!"

was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he dropped the coffee pot and it broke into
hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found

Stuff you should have learned in grade school If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps blood out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. On average people fear spiders more than they do death. The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. It's impossible to sneeze with your eyes open. You can't kill yourself by holding your breath. Americans on the average eat 18 acres of pizza every day. Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie. Did you know that you are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider? Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people do. In ancient Egypt, Priests plucked EVERY hair from their bodies, including their eyebrows and eyelashes. A crocodile cannot stick its tongue out. The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight and always falls over on its right side when intoxicated. Polar bears are left handed. The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds, that makes the catfish rank #1 for animal having the most taste buds. (Note from moi - catfish aren't animals.) The flea can jump 350 times its body length, that is like a human jumping the length of a football field. A cockroach will live nine days without it's head before it starves to death. Butterflies taste with their feet. Elephants are the only animals that can't jump. A cat's urine glows under a black light. An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain. Starfish haven't got brains
