Saturday Morning Reflection #125

Good Morning Everyone,

Here it is...Saturday again.

All is well this morning. Cats playing and good coffee being placed in the correct coffee cups. Jackie has had so much caffeine that she is almost hyper.

Alex Cat was very demanding this morning. He demanded that we get up and feed him. Since he is a cat he doesn't realize we don't get up at 0500hrs on the weekend (usually).

Here's a chuckle to start your day...

A little rural town had one of the highest birth rates in the country and this phenomenon attracted the attention of the sociologists at the state university.

They wrote a grant proposal; got a huge chunk of money; moved to town; set up their computers; got squared away; and began designing their questionnaires and such.

While the staff was busy getting ready for their big research effort, the project director decided to go to the local drugstore for a cup of coffee. He sat down at the counter, ordered his coffee, and while he was drinking it, he told the druggist what his purpose was in town, then asked him if he had any idea why the birth rate was so high.

"Sure," said the druggist. "Every morning the six o'clock train comes through here and blows for the crossing. It wakes everybody up, and, well, it's too late to go back to sleep, and it's too early to get up."

Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Good Morning Everyone...

Here it is...Saturday again. YEEHAW!!

I have heard that parts of our area are going to get ice and snow. I am hoping that the area where I am does not get any of that. I have been getting fliers, in the mail, about Walleye fishing. I am going to attempt to go up this year and get in a day of fishing. The Walleye levels in my freezer are very low. The last flyer I received said they are expecting 11 to 15 inch Perch this year. I don't know what the limits will be, but I wouldn't mind a freezer full of those.

There aren't any big plans for this weekend, but it is way better than work. I am sure that Jackie and I will find something to get into.

A girl says to a salesman, "I'm not sure if I should buy a sweatshirt or a windbreaker."

He says, "Well, that depends. Are you gonna sweat, or are you gonna break wind?"

Good morning everyone...

Can you believe there is snow on the ground? Damn, and I am not in hibernation. I should be.

The past week has been spent battling a cold/sinus infection. I seem to be on the mend. Thank Goodness.

Jackie and I have not made many plans for the weekend. I am sure that whatever we do will be better than work. Let me say this..the coffee and the company is good this morning. I am going for another cup.

Here's a chuckle to start your day....

Jock once attended a Temperance lecture given by Scotland's top medical man, a noted anti-drink campaigner.

The speaker began by placing a live, wriggling worm in a glass of whisky. After a moment or two it died and sank to the bottom.

The speaker said quietly to the audience, "Now my friends, what does this tell us?"

Jock piped up, "If you drink whisky you'll not be bothered by worms!"


Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Saturday Morning Reflection #122

Good morning everyone...

Here it is...Saturday again. I am so glad that I am not working today. A day off does a body good.

There isn't much to write about...the week has been slow and seems to have been filled with technical crap from work. Normally, I try to leave out the boring details.

THE MARSHALL UNIVERSITY BASKETBALL team is having a THUNDEROUS start to the season. I am very impressed. I believe the team will be contending for the C-USA Title.

Here's a chuckle to start your day...

A group of bikers were riding when they saw a woman about to jump off The Tampa Bay Bridge,so they stopped. The leader, a big burly man, gets off his bike and says, "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to commit suicide," she says.

While he didn't want to appear insensitive, he didn't want to miss an opportunity either,so he asked... "Well, before you jump, why don't you give me a kiss?"

So she does... And it was a long, deep, lingering kiss.

After she's finished, the biker says, "Wow! That was the best kiss I've ever had!
That's a real talent you are wasting. You could be famous. Why in the world would
you want to commit suicide?"

"My parents don't like me dressing up like a girl........".

The authorities think she may have been pushed.

Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Saturday Morning Reflection #121

Good morning everyone...

This will be the last entry for 2011. I believe we should all take a moment to reflect on 2011 and be grateful for the blessings we received. There are many families out there that lost a member in the wars. There are many families out there that have had bouts with drug abuse and alcoholism. There are so many bad things that we should ALL look at the GOOD and be thankful. Perhaps 2012 will be the year that AMERICA returns to HER place as a leader of nations. Let AMERICA's people clearly state that they will no longer tolerate the STATUS QUO and require this NATIONS leaders to correct the intolerable conditions that have been inflicted upon the working class.

There are many issues at hand that must be addressed and corrected. Perhaps, what should be said is that we should simply FOLLOW THE RULES. Should you commit a crime then justice should be swift and it should be handed out. Should you be here as an undocumented alien then you should be returned and forced to follow the process for legal entry. EBT,WIC,WELFARE,UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION are not a way of life...These are measures put in place to temporarily assist you in maintaining your standard of living when there is a crisis in your life.

I could go on, but I will not. This country is the greatest on Earth...I do however have one other issue....

When you are in prison and do not comply with the orders of the Correction Officers, why do they do a cell extraction? When the prisoner gets hungry enough he will clean the poop off of the walls and then will comply with the orders...there is no need to send the Officers into harms way.

Happy New Year

Here's a chuckle to start your day...

Peter, at a New Year's party, turns to his friend, Ken, and asks for a cigarette.

'I thought you made a New Year's resolution to quit smoking,' Ken responds. 'I'm in the process of quitting,' replies Peter with a grin. 'Right now, I am in the middle of phase one.'

'Phase one?' wonders Ken.

'Yeah,' replied Peter, 'I've quit buying.'

Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Saturday Morning Reflection #120

Good morning everyone...

I suppose this is the Christmas Blog. Merry Christmas to Everyone...even those of you I don't like...:)

Vacation planning has begun. The days are already scheduled....now the plans are being developed as to where. Garden City, SC is one of the top lines on the list. I LOVE the area there. A couple of Florida destinations are also being considered. I am also pretty sure a quick trip to Lake Eerie will take place.

OK...enough...MERRY CHRISTMAS to all.

Here's a chuckle to start your day...

"Nice dog. What's its name?" I asked my friend's 10-year old son.

"Bob," he said.

"And what's your cat's name?"

"Bob."

"Well, how do you keep them straight?" I asked.

"Well, one is Bob Cat and the other is Bob Barker," the boy answered.

"Go ahead and tell him your rabbit's name," his father suggested.

The kid smiled and said... "Dennis Hopper."


Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Saturday Morning Reflection #119

Good morning everyone...

It's Saturday and Christmas is almost here. YEEHAW!!! This morning I awoke to the aroma of coffee. I was not the first one up. Of course, that means I didn't have to help feed the cats. The company is good, except she keeps laughing at my typing skills...:~

Today, we start the Christmas parties. I believe we are eating at Jackie's sister's house. Everyone knows I never pass up a free meal.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Here's a chuckle to start your day...

An old man goes to a diner every day for lunch. He always orders the soup du jour. One day the manager asks him how he liked his meal. The old man replies, in a thick acccent, "Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread."

So the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him four slices of bread. "How was your meal, sir?" the manager asks. "Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread," comes the reply.

So the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him eight slices of bread. "How was your meal today, sir?" the manager asks. "Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread," comes the reply.

So ... the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him a whole loaf of bread with his soup. "How was your meal, sir?" the manager asks, when he comes to pay. "Wass goot, but you could give just a little more bread," comes the reply once again.

The manager is now obsessed with seeing this customer say that he is satisfied with his meal, so he goes to the bakery, and orders a six-foot-long loaf of bread. When the man comes in as usual the next day, the waitress and the manager cut the loaf in half, butter the entire length of each half, and lay it out along the counter, right next to his bowl of soup. The old man sits down, and devours both his bowl of soup, and both halves of the six-foot-long loaf of bread.

The manager now thinks he will get the answer he is looking for, and when the old man comes up to pay for his meal, the manager asks in the usual way: "How was your meal TODAY, sir?"

The old man replies: "It wass goot as usual, but I see you are back to giving only two slices of bread."


Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills
