Won't Cook
I put a roast in the oven one noon hour and set the
timer, a feature I hadn't used yet. Before leaving work
that afternoon, I phoned my 14-year-old son to ask
him to check the roast and peel some potatoes.
Minutes later he called back. "Mom, the roast isn't
cooked. The oven didn't come on." The roast was on
the menu again the following day, but this time, since
I stopped by the house after a business lunch, I decided to turn the oven on myself. Again before leaving
work, I called my son to check the roast and get the
potatoes started. Again he called me back. "The roast
still isn't cooked." "Listen," I said. "I know the oven's
on. I turned it on before I left. I didn't use the timer."
"Oh, the stove's working fine," he told me. "It's just
that the roast is still in the refrigerator."
The Senility Prayer
"Grant me the senility to forget the people I never
liked. The good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
the eyesight to tell the difference".
Pay Attention And Wise Up #9 WM
If the government's plan for getting people back to
work is to incentivize NOT working with 99 weeks of
unemployment checks and no requirement to prove
they applied but can’t find work ... you might live in a
country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.
Why is "abbreviation" such a long word?

Biggest Liar
Two boys were arguing when the teacher entered the
room. The teacher asked, "Why are you arguing?"
One boy answered, "We found a ten-dollar bill and
decided to give it to whoever tells the biggest lie."
"You should be ashamed of yourselves," said the teacher.
"When I was your age, I didn't even know what a lie
was." The boys gave the ten dollars to the teacher.
Cab Ride
On a business trip to India, I arrived at the airport
in Delhi and took a taxi to my hotel, where I was
greeted by my hospitable Indian host. The cab driver
requested the equivalent of eight dollars U.S. for the
fare. It seemed reasonable, so I started to hand him the
money. But my host grabbed the bills and initiated a
verbal assault upon the cabby, calling him a worthless
parasite and a disgrace to their country for trying to
overcharge visitors. My host threw half the amount at
the driver and told him never to return. As the taxi
sped off, my host gave me the remaining bills and
asked, "How was your trip?" "Fine ... until you chased
the cab away with my luggage in the trunk."
Helpful Mechanic
Taking my car to the mechanic, I was fearful that any
needed repair might be too expensive. I was relieved
when he told me all I needed was blinker fluid.

Waiting For A Wheel Chair EJF
The Mechanic And The Doctor EJF
Walking into a hospital room, a nurse finds an
elderly gentleman dressed and sitting on the bed with
a suitcase at his feet. He insists to her that he doesn't
need help leaving the hospital, but the nurse explains
that hospital regulations require a wheel chair for
patients being discharged. Reluctantly, he lets her
wheel him to the elevator and down to the lobby. On
the way to the front door, the nurse asks the man if his
wife is meeting him there. "I don't know," he replies.
"She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of
her hospital gown."
"Osborne's Law"
Variables won't; constants aren't.
A mechanic, was removing a cylinder head when he
spotted a heart surgeon in his garage. The heart surgeon
was waiting for the service manager to take a look at his
bike. Allan shouted across the garage, 'Hey Doc can I
ask you a question?' The surgeon, a bit surprised,
walked over to Allan. Allan straightened up, wiped his
hands on a rag and asked, 'So Doc, look at this engine. I
also can open hearts, take valves out, fix'em, put in new
parts and when I finish this will work just like a new
one. So how come I work for a pittance and you get the
really big money, when you and I are doing basically the
same work?' The surgeon smiled and whispered in the
mechanic’s ear, 'Try doing it with the engine running.'

Three Day Silence
My wife has not spoken to me in three days. I
think it has something to do with what happened on
Sunday night when she thought she heard a noise
downstairs. She nudged me and whispered, "Wake up,
wake up!" "What's the matter?" I asked.
"There are
burglars in the kitchen. I think they're eating the tuna
casserole I made tonight." "That'll teach them!" I said.

If children are forcibly removed from parents who

Tell me Something Positive
A Husband and wife are getting ready for bed. The
wife is standing in front of a full-length mirror taking
a hard look at herself. "You know, love" she says, "I
look in the mirror and I see an old woman. My face is
all wrinkled, my chest is barely above my waist, and
my bum is hanging out a mile. I've got fat legs and my
arms are all flabby" She turns to her husband and
says... "Tell me something positive to make me feel
better about myself. He thinks about it for a bit and
then says in a soft voice..."well...there's nothing wrong
with your eyesight".

Mabel & Ethel
Two elderly women were eating breakfast in a restaurant one morning. Ethel noticed something funny about
Mabel's ear and she said, "Mabel, did you know you've
got a suppository in your left ear?"
Mabel answered,
"I have? a suppository?" She pulled it out & stared at it.
Then she said, "Ethel, I'm glad you saw this thing. Now
I think I now know where my hearing aid is."
Friends for Decades
Two elderly ladies had been friends for many
decades. Over the years they had shared all kinds of
activities and adventures. Lately, their activities had
been limited to meeting a few times a week to play
cards. One day they were playing cards when one
looked at the other and said, "Now don't get mad at
me.....I know we've been friends for a long time but I
just can't think of your name! I've thought and
thought, but I can't remember it. Please tell me what
your name is. Her friend glared at her. For at least
three minutes she just stared and glared at her.
Finally she said, "How soon do you need to know?
Day's Catch
A fisherman accidentally left his day's catch under
the seat of a bus. The next evening, the newspaper
carried an ad: "If the person who left a bucket of fish
on the No. 47 bus would care to come to the garage,
he can have the bus."

You finally know your getting
'Marvelously Mature when....................
......... You and your teeth don't sleep together. • You
try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and
discover you aren't wearing any. • When you wake up
looking like your driver's license picture. • It takes
two tries to get up from the couch. • When you're on
vacation and your energy runs out before your money
does.. • When all you want for your birthday is to not
be reminded of your age. • When you step off a curb
and look down one more time to make sure the street
is still there. • Your idea of weight lifting is standing
up. • Your address book has mostly names that start
with Dr. • You sit in a rocking chair and can't get it
going. • The pharmacist has become your new best
friend. • It takes twice as long, to look half as good. •
Everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt doesn't work. •
You look for your glasses for half an hour and they
were on your head the whole time. • You sink your
teeth into a steak and they stay there. • You give up all
your bad habits and still don't feel good. • You have
more patience, but it is actually that you just don't care
anymore. • You finally get your head together and
your body starts falling apart. You wonder how you
could be over the hill when you don't even remember
being on top of it.

You Were Warned
Noticing one of her students was making faces at
the other children in the playground, Ms. Smith
stopped to gently reprove the child. Smiling sweetly,
the Sunday school teacher said, "Johnny, when I was a
child, I was told if that I made ugly faces, that it
would freeze and stay that way." Johnny looks up and
replies, "Well, Ms Smith, you can't say you weren't
warned."

Most of us have a bad habit we are constantly trying to break. For me, it’s biting my fingernails. One
day I told my husband about my latest solution: presson nails. "Great idea, Honey," he smiled. "You can eat
them straight out of the box."
Redneck Construction
Four rednecks in a pickup truck, drive to the local
lumberyard. One of the men walks into the office and
says, "We need to buy some four by two's." The clerk
says, "You mean two-by-four's, don't you?" Bubba,
says, "I'm not sure, I'll go check," and went back to
the truck to ask his brothers. He returns some time
later and says, "Yup, I meant two-by-fours." "Ok, Now
how long do you need them?" Again Bubba pauses for
a minute, and says, "I'm not sure, I better go check
with the family." After awhile, the redneck returns to
the office and says "We need long ones, we're gonna
build a house."
MUSIC & BINGO & LOTS OF FUN
Hard English
No wonder English is so hard to learn... foe example, We polish the Polish furniture. He could lead if he
would get the lead out. A farm can produce produce.
The dump was so full it had to refuse refuse. The soldier decided to desert in the desert. The present is a
good time to present the present. At the Army base, a
bass was painted on the head of a bass drum. The dove
dove into the bushes. I did not object to the object. The
insurance for the invalid was invalid. The bandage
was wound around the wound. They were too close to
the door to close it. The buck does funny things when
the does are present. They sent a sewer down to stitch
the tear in the sewer line. Needing help with the planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow. The wind was too
strong to wind the sail. After a number of Novo-cain
injections, my jaw got number. I shed a tear when I
saw the tear in my clothes. I had to subject the subject
to a series of tests. How can I intimate this to my most
intimate friend? I spent last evening evening out a pile
of dirt. We drive on parkways and park on driveways.
Fore!
My 5-year-old nephew wanted to caddy for my
brother's golf game. "You have to count my strokes,"
my brother told him. "How much is six plus nine plus
eight?" "Five." answered the nephew. "Okay," my
brother said, "let's go."

Daydreaming
The Math teacher notices that Johnny had been
day-dreaming for most of the class. To get his attention she says, "Johnny, if the world is 25,000 miles
around, and a dozen eggs are 90 cents, how old am I?
"Thirty-four," Johnny answered unhesitatingly. The
teacher who is all amazed, replies "Well, that's correct.
"Tell me,...how did you figure that out?" Oh, there's
nothing to it," Johnny said. "My big sister is seventeen
and she's only half- crazy."
Pay Attention And Wise Up #3 WM
If hard work and success are met with higher taxes
and more government intrusion, while not working is
rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid, subsidized housing and free cell phones ... you might live in
a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.
Dog Bowl
A woman went to the counter to purchase a drinking bowl for her dog. The clerk asked, "Would you
like it inscribed 'For The Dog'?" "It doesn't really matter," she replied. "My husband doesn't drink water and
the dog can't read."

Never Sick
Grandma Jones had never experienced a sick day
in her life, so she didn't take it kindly when a bad case
of the "mulligrubs" sent her to the hospital for observation. By the time a pair of husky interns got
Grandma tucked into bed, she had managed to complain about everything: the temperature, the lights, the
skimpy gown, the food and the mattress, especially,
the mattress. Suddenly, Grandma spotted a small plastic item with a button, attached to a cord. "What's
that?" she demanded. "If you need anything in the
middle of the night, Grandma," said one of the interns,
"just press that button." "What does it do, ring a bell?"
she asked. "No, it turns on a light in the hall for the
nurse on duty," the intern replied. "A light in the hall?"
responded Grandma. "Look, I'm the sick one around
here. If the night nurse needs a light on in the hall, she
can get up and switch it on herself."
Pay Attention And Wise Up #10 WM
If an 80-year-old woman can be stripped searched by
the TSA but a woman in a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched ... you might live in a
country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

Hospital Stay EJF
A man goes to visit his 85-year-old grandpa in hospital. " How are you grandpa? he asks. "Feeling fine,"
says the old man. "What's the food like?" "Terrific, wonderful menus." "And the nursing?" "Just couldn't be better. These young nurses really take care of you."
"What about sleeping? Do you sleep OK?" "No problem, nine hours solid every night. At 10 o'clock they
bring me a cup of hot chocolate and a Viagra tablet ...
and that's it. I go out like a light." The grandson is puzzled and a little alarmed by this, so rushes off to question the Sister in charge. "What are you people doing,"
he says, " I'm told you're giving an 85-year-old Viagra
on a daily basis. Surely that can't be true?" "Oh, yes,"
replies the Sister. "Every night at 10 o'clock we give him
a cup of hot chocolate and a Viagra tablet. It works wonderfully well. The chocolate makes him sleep, and the
Viagra stops him from rolling out of bed
Four Nurses EJF
Four nurses all decided to play a joke on the doctor
they worked for, whom they all felt was an arrogant
jerk. Later in the day, they all got together on break
and discussed what they had done to the doctor.
The first nurse said, "I stuffed cotton in his stethoscope so he couldn't hear." The second nurse said, "I
let the mercury out of his thermometers and painted
them all to read 106 degrees." The third nurse said,
"Well, I did worse than that. I poked holes in all of the
condoms that he keeps in his desk drawer." The fourth
nurse fainted.

Need a Raise!
The basketball coach stormed into the university
president's office and demanded a raise right then and
there. "Please," protested the college president, "you
already make more than the entire History department." "Yeah, maybe so, but you don't know what I
have to put up with," the coach blustered. "Look." He
went out into the hall and grabbed a jock who was
jogging down the hallway. "Run over to my office and
see if I'm there," he ordered. Twenty minutes later the
jock returned, sweaty and out of breath. "You're not
there, sir," he reported. "See what I mean?" the coach
said, scratching his head. "He could have phoned!"
Personal Calls
One caller to our answering service gave me his
name, number and message and then said, "You know
my name. What's yours?" "4136," I replied, since we
were allowed only to give our operator numbers.
Sounding disappointed, he said, "May I call you by
your first digit, or would that be too personal?"

There was a traveling salesman whose car became
hopelessly stuck in a snow bank during a recent blizzard
in North Dakota. It took him several hours to make it to
the nearest farm house, but frozen half to death, he finally
reached the front door and knocked on it. A grizzled old
farmer answered and the salesman pleaded for a place to
spend the night. 'Why sure, young fella, I can give ya a
place to bunk,' said the hospitable old man. 'But, I ain't
got no daughter like ya always hear about in them thar
jokes.' 'Oh!' said the salesman. Then thinking a moment
or two said, 'Just how far is it to the next farm?'
Harrowing Experience LP
This morning on Circle Drive, I looked over to my
left and there was a woman In a brand new Cadillac
doing 65 mph with her face up next to her rear view
mirror putting on her eyeliner. I looked away For a
couple seconds...to continue shaving and when I
looked back she was halfway over in my lane! ...still
working on that makeup. As a man, I don't scare easily. But she scared me so much; I dropped my electric
shaver which knocked the donut out of my other
hand. In all the confusion of trying to straighten out
the car using my knees against the steering wheel, It
knocked my cell phone away from my ear which fell
into the coffee between my legs! Splashed, and burned
and ruined the damn phone, soaked my trousers and
disconnected an important call! Women Drivers!

The Constitution is the guide I
will never abandon.
~George Washington~
.......................to this
The Constitution? Hey, it’s just a piece of paper.
2008 TO THE PRESENT........
The United States of America enduring the
ERA OF EMBARRASSMENT
I can’t stand the Democrats and I have no use for
the Republicans. Just about all of them are self
ordained demigods above reproach. I can honestly say
that I can’t sense an honorable person among them.
Maybe there are a few, but they are trivialized by
those of the power class who care more about themselves and less about the present and future of our
beloved country. Look at the the sacrifice and courage
of our founding fathers then and at the shenanigans of
Barry and the Bolsheviks now. But,....who cares? I do.
