Overheard at the look out at Chimney Rock, SC this past weekend -- "It reminds me of the mountains."

We were ON a mountain at the time. (Linking someone else's shot since I have not processed mine yet.)

Hi Joseph,

What a cute story!

I've been with my partner for almost 25 years and I shudder to think what a stranger would perceive while listening to us talk with one another. We're so familiar with each other we take verbal shortcuts sometimes. It sounds something like this. "Yes, I know, because we can and I agree, maybe later, you too, good, do ya think, I know and it should because after all, exactly. Now, ok but save some, oh me too and yes, oh yes sweetie pie."

Things are rarely what they seem. Hopefully, that person wasn't mentally challenged in some way, then the story isn't cute at all.

Lovely Story, Joseph!

My mother tells anybody who wishes to hear or not a little story of me when I was very little:
In Summer we liked to go swim in the Baltic Sea - well I did - for my mother mostly the water was too cold. So I asked her why we don't bring a pot of hot water next time ... I assume my mom was really excited about her clever daughter ...

I am making the presumption he is not mentally challenged but immensely creative.

Hi Sydne,

Who are you referring to up above? When I mentioned the phrase "mentally challenged" I was still speaking about the person who said "it reminds me of the mountains" in Joseph's post.

 

Sydne Archambault

Ah I thought you were speaking of the article I posted! Thank you Kelley, it is good to be clear!

@ Sydne re's the article..

Hahaaahaaa... well no wonder since he is a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. OY!
Thanks for sharing - my first real laugh-out-loud for the day.

I might like to dress like a pirate everyday or at least on Sundays between the hours of 9am - 2pm. It could be as valid as any other organized religion. ;~ o

A joke for golfers.....

A man staggered into a hospital with a concussion, multiple bruises, two black eyes and a five iron wrapped tightly around his neck.
Naturally, the doctor asked him, What happened to YOU?
Well, I was having a game of golf with my wife, when at a different hole, we both sliced our golf balls into a field of cattle.
We went to look for them and while I was looking around I noticed one cow had something white stuck in its ass.
I walked over, lifted its tail and sure enough, there was a golf ball with my wife's monogram on it- stuck right in the middle of the cows ass.

Still holding the cows tail up, I yelled to my wife," Hey this looks like yours."



I don't remember much after that!

 

That's hilarious, Bob! Now here's a ribald tale of a young lad of just six years, whose open-minded mother and father took him to a nude beach...

As the boy walked along the beach, he noticed that some of the ladies had bigger boobs than his mother’s, and he asked her why.

She told her son, "The bigger they are the dumber the person is."

The boy was pleased with the answer and went to play in the ocean, but soon returned to tell his mother that many of the men had larger penises than his father's.

His mother replied, "The bigger they are the dumber the person is."

Again satisfied with this answer, the boy returned to the ocean to play.

Shortly thereafter, the boy sought out his mother and promptly told her, "Mommy. I'm worried about Daddy. He's talking to the dumbest girl on the beach, and the longer he talks, the dumber he gets."

I watch 9 hours of football every Sunday (and 3 hours on Thursday and Monday).

I don't usually watch programs on commercial TV. I hate commercials and the way they are edited.

I watch a lot on HBO. Boardwalk Empire just ended last week so Sunday night just opened up (until Game of Thrones comes back)

Being the politician that i am... i have placed this in three threads because i want to get my message out... LOL

A 1984 news paper ad of Ed Meredith's presidential campaign poster.
Ed ran as a candidate for the Anarchist Silly Party and received 921 votes or .00001% of the total.
Ronald Reagan won his second term with 54,455,427 or 58.8% and 525 electoral votes.
Walter Mondale received 37,577,352 or 40.6% and 13 electoral votes winning only his home state of Minnesota,
one more than Ed Meredith who won all of his states of mind and satisfaction.

It is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an oversensitive woman.

My name is Jeff. Let me relate how I handled the situation with my wife, Susie.

Since I retired several years ago, it has become necessary for Susie to get a full-time job along with her part-time job, both for extra income and for the health benefits that we needed.

Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to show her age. I usually get home from the golf club about the same time she gets home from work.

Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always says she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts dinner. I don't yell at her. Instead, I tell her to take her time and just wake me when she gets dinner on the table. I generally have lunch in the Men's Grill at the club, so eating out all the time is not reasonable. I'm ready for some home-cooked grub when I hit that door.

She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating. But now it's not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after dinner. I do what I can by diplomatically reminding her several times each evening that they won't clean themselves. I know she really appreciates this, as it does seem to motivate her to get them done before she goes to bed.

Another symptom of aging is complaining, I think. For example she will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the monthly bills during her lunch hour. But boys, we take 'em for better or worse, don't we, so I just smile and offer encouragement. I tell her to stretch it out over two or even three days. That way she won't have to rush so much. I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then wouldn't hurt her any (if you know what I mean). I like to think tact is one of my strong points.

When doing simple jobs, she seems to think she needs more rest periods. She had to take a break when she was only half finished mowing the yard. I try not to make a scene. I'm a fair man. I tell her to fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of freshly squeezed lemonade and just sit for a while. And, as long as she is making one for herself, she may as well make one for me too.

I know that I probably look like a saint in the way I support Susie. I'm not saying that showing this much consideration is easy. Many men will find it difficult. Some will find it impossible! Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women get as they get older.

However, guys, even if you just use a little more tact and less criticism of your aging wife because of this article, I will consider that writing it was well worthwhile. After all, we are put on this earth to help each other.

Sincerely, Jeff

EDITOR'S NOTE:

Jeff died suddenly on March 1 of a perforated rectum. The police report says he was found with a Callaway extra long 50-inch Big Bertha Driver II golf club jammed up his rear end, with barely 5 inches of grip showing and a sledge hammer laying nearby.

His wife Susie was arrested and charged with murder. The all-woman jury took only 15 minutes to find her Not Guilty, accepting her defense that Jeff somehow, without looking, accidentally sat down on his golf club.

I know! It was fun! I can't recall the guy, but I am betting he is a "Cowboy Poet". If you have read any Cowboy Poetry it is really very good and often tongue in cheek.

So my cat had a Praying Mantis on the run today. Don't worry I saved the mantis! This one was a brown Mantis, and in my research I found, when its dry they turn brown, when its wet they turn green. Anyway I found this hilarious video on the Praying Mantis and I couldn't resist!

Entertaining European Commercial you will not see in the USA! [ at least for approx. 1/2 of viewers ;O) ]

Right over the border of Northern Germany in Denmark there are a couple of "Fleggaard" supermarkets (belonging to the Costco family) where you really find everything your heart craves, especially high tech and household appliances; a lot cheaper than in Germany...
For this commercial, more than 100 skydiver women jumped from a transport plane, you see them in free fall forming the ad text:
"SIEMENS washing machine for only 269 Euros"
Called ”quite simply the best commercial ever made” by a respected advertising expert.

Go to this link - be forewarned this is a European commercial... you will see breasts... lots and lots of breasts... ;O)
