Jehovah's Witness
There was a knock on the door this morning. I opened it to find a young man standing there who said, "Hello sir, I'm a Jehovah's Witness."I said "Come in and sit down."
I offered him coffee and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
He said, "Bugger if I know, I've never got this far before."

Wednesdays Question #64
It's Wednesday so that means it's question time. It's time to ponder and then answer just one question. Okay, you can add all you want as a reason for your answer too. We'd all like that.So here's this weeks question: What plans, if any, do you have for Labor Day weekend? If you don't live in the U.S., what plans do you have for the weekend?
Hubby, me and Little Bit will be on our boat. I'm not sure if we're going anywhere, but we'll be enjoying our wonderful boat. We talk about the sounds of summer often while boating when the loud muscle boats go zooming by. We won't be hearing that very much longer.

Ten Things to Know
The most powerful force in the universe is gossip.I have yet to find anybody who can give us a clear and compelling reason why we put the clocks forward every spring.
There is a very fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness.'
There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age 11.
If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be 'meetings.'
You should not confuse your career with your life (i.e., never confuse having a career with having a life!).
A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person.
No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her.
When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy. (Your friends love you, anyway!)

Stolen Fruit!
Mary was taken before the judge accused of theft, and he asked her, 'What did you steal?'
'A small can of peaches,' Mary replied, weeping.
The judge then asked her why she had stolen the peaches, and she replied that she was hungry.
The judge then inquired, 'And how many peaches were in the can?'
Mary answered, 'Only 6 small pieces.'
The judge harshly announced, 'Then I will give you 6 days in jail.' But before the judge could finish pronouncing the punishment, the woman's husband, Derek, interrupted and asked the judge if he could say something?
The judge, slightly annoyed asked, 'And what have you to say in your wife's defense?'
Derek said, 'She also stole a large can of peas.'

Fridays Fragments
I miss my mother something awful. She died at the age of 60 from Lou Gehrig s (ALS) disease. Did you know that I'm 60. She died so very young.My father was a tyrant when I was growing up. He'd often beat me and then send me off to school looking awful. My high school principal took me home more than once and told my mother that I needed to heal up before I could return to school. I had a very interesting childhood.
When I told my father that I wanted to go to college he said why, you're only going to get married and have babies.
School was always simple for me, but very hard for my brother and sister. They would study and study and have a terrible time making decent grades. I always wondered why there was such a difference.
With all the conflict I dealt with while growing up my father told me many years later in my life that he was very proud of me. I was then a Sergeant in our local Sheriff's Office. He died before I was promoted to lieutenant. He would have really liked that, and yes we did make peace. It just took a long time.
When I entered high school I was extremely popular. My mother was very religious and dancing wasn't allowed, so when I came home so excited that I'd been named the princess (by my peers) of the first dance of the year, I was heartbroken when she told me I wasn't going. Many years later she admitted that she should have let me go.
Warning!
Don't shampoo in the shower. It's so good to finally get a health warning that is useful!I don't know why I didn't figure this out sooner. I use shampoo in the shower and when I wash my hair the shampoo runs down my whole body. Printed clearly on the shampoo label is the warning, "for extra body and volume." No wonder I have been gaining weight.
Well, I've gotten rid of that shampoo and am going to start shampooing with Dawn dish soap. Its label reads, "dissolves fat that is otherwise difficult to remove."

I love a great albacore tuna sandwich on white roll with dill pickles and onion. A nice cup of soup is a great side. One of my favorite outings is Togo's and I always have the albacore tuna sandwich and a cup of soup.

The Cat's Diary:
Day 983 of my captivity.
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Jerks!
There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage. Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.
I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now.
The Tip
A blackjack dealer and a player with a thirteen count in his hand were arguing about whether or not it was appropriate to tip the dealer.The player said, "When I get bad cards, it's not the dealer's fault. And, when I get good cards, the dealer obviously has nothing to do with it. So, why should I tip him?"
The dealer replied, "When you eat out, do you tip the waiter?"
"Yes, sure I do," responded the player.
"Well then, he serves you food, and I'm serving you cards. So you see, you should tip me."
"Okay, I see your point," agreed the player. "But, the waiter gives me what I ask for ... I'll take an eight."

Warning!
Police are warning all men who frequently visit clubs, parties and local pubs to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from any woman.
Many females use a date rape drug on the market called...Beer. The drug is found in liquid form and available anywhere. It comes in bottles, can, from taps and in large kegs.
Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade their male victims to go home and have sex with them.
A women needs only to get a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then simply ask him home for no strings attached sex.
Men are rendered helpless against this approach.
At other times these unfortunate men are swindled out of their life's savings, in a familiar scam known as a 'relationship'.
In extreme cases, the female may even be shrewd enough to entrap the unsuspecting male into a longer term form of servitude and punishment referred to as 'marriage'.
Men are much more susceptible to this scam after Beer is administered and sex is offered by the predatory females.
Please forward this warning to every male you know. If you fall victim to Beer and the women administering it... there are male support groups where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter with similarly affected like-minded guys.
For the support group nearest you, just look up 'Golf Courses' in the phone book.

Fridays Fragments
Have you noticed that one person can mess up everything for everyone else? Happened in one of our yacht clubs and we had to resign. I hate being backed into a corner. There just isn't any place to go. What makes it so sad is we didn't do anything to be backed into the corner, and there are so many that we love dearly.Why do some people complain about everything? There is so much to be thankful for if you just look around.
Don't you just love the way some folks drive on the freeway. There are wall to wall cars and they are zipping from one lane to the next and then back. With inches to spare. Bless their hearts and Lord please protect us from these people.
Our annual bay cruise is coming up this October. Destinations are Pittsburg Municipal, Benicia Yacht Club, San Rafael Yacht Club, Treasure Island, Encinal Yacht Club, and end the bay cruise with two nights in Sausalito. Sounds like a plan to me. I have to come back for the change of watch to Marina West Yacht Club on the first Saturday evening as I'll be sworn in as the Secretary of IOBG Delta District 19.
Grand-babies rock, but great grand-babies are even more fun. The patience I have now compared to when I was raising my son. What a difference.
There are so many wonderful people on the Internet. I love many of them dearly and you all know who your are. I've met many of you in person and that's been the most incredible part. The photographs below are just some of the wonderful bloggers I've met.
Empress Bee (muffin53 part deux) and I enjoying the Carnival Glory. Love you Miss Bee. Oh and she's way skinny now too.
Dick and Sandy (Traveling Bells) at dinner on the Carnival Glory. They are currently cruising in Europe. Love you both.
Linda (Are We There Yet??) and Barb (The Daily Gs) on the Carnival Glory. I love you both too.What fragment is rattling around in your head today?
Have a terrific day and weekend all and remember to stop and smell the roses along the way.
Kids - Part II
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 (isn't she a treasure)
On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
-- Martin, age 10
WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
When they're rich.
-- Pam, age 7 (love her)
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?
It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
-- Anita, age 9 (bless you child)
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
And the #1 favorite is...
HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK ?
Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a dump truck.
-- Ricky, age 10

Kids on Marriage
Judy of Judy H-J's Thoughts - A Twinless Twin and Jean of Life in My Happy Place won the right to end the Dave and Linda Story Game. Go HERE to see their ending.HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHOM TO MARRY?
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.
-- Alan, age 10
No person really decides before they grow up whom they're going to marry. God decides it all way before and you get to find out later who you're stuck with.
-- Kristen, age 10
WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.
-- Camille, age 10
HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
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 any more kids.
-- Lori, age 8

The Psychiatrists
While attending a convention, three psychiatrists take a walk. "People are always coming to us with their guilt and fears," one says, "but we have no one to go to with our own problems." "Since we're all professionals," another suggests, "why don't we hear each other out right now?" They agreed this is a good idea.The first psychiatrist confesses, "I'm a compulsive shopper and deeply in debt, so I usually over bill my patients as often as I can.
"The second admits, "I have a drug problem that's out of control, and I frequently pressure my patients into buying illegal drugs for me."
The third psychiatrist says, "I know it's wrong, but no matter how hard I try, I just can't keep a secret."

What Are You Doing?
A policeman was patrolling a local parking spot overlooking a golf course. He drove by a car and saw a couple inside with the dome light on. There was a young man in the driver's seat reading a computer magazine and a young lady in the back seat knitting. He stopped to investigate. He walked up to the driver's window and knocked. The young man looked up, cranked the window down, and said, "Yes Officer?"
"What are you doing?" the policeman asked. "What does it look like?" answered the young man. "I'm reading this magazine." Pointing towards the young lady in the back seat, the officer then asked, "And what is she doing?" The young man looked over his shoulder and replied, "What does it look like? She's knitting."
"And how old are you?" the officer then asked the young man. "I'm nineteen," he replied. "And how old is she?" asked the officer. The young man looked at his watch and said, "Well, in about twelve minutes she'll be eighteen."

Childbirth 101
Things Not To Say During Childbirth...Gosh, you're lucky. I sure wish men could experience the miracle of childbirth.
Do you think the baby will come before Monday Night Football starts?
I hope your ready. The Glamor Shot photographer will be here in fifteen minutes.
If you think this hurts, I should tell you about the time I twisted my ankle playing basketball.
That was the kids on the phone. Did you have anything planned for dinner?
When you lay on your back, you look like a python that swallowed a wild boar.
You don't need an epidural. Just relax and enjoy the moment.
This whole experience kind of reminds me of an episode from I Love Lucy.
Oops! Which cord was I supposed to cut?
Stop your swearing and just breathe.
Remember what we learned in Lamaze class! HEE HEE HOO HOO. You're not using the right words.
Your stomach still looks like there's another one in there.

Dave and Linda
This is the completed Story Game of "Dave and Linda" that you all did an outstanding job in authoring.Dave and Linda just got married, but her new mother-in-law doesn't care for Linda one bit. Her biggest dislike about Linda is her unfeasibly large square shaped breasts and the feather in her hair. But she decided she'd try anyway so she put a feather in her own hair, but it was way bigger and more colorful than Linda's.
When Linda saw the feather she vowed to get even with her Mother In Law and get an even bigger feather plus two or three feathers in her bonnet. Then, Dave walked in the door and found himself in that awkward moment of having to decide whether to compliment his wife or his mother, or both. He decided to just turn around and walk the other way. He knew there was no winning in this situation.
Meanwhile, Linda was having trouble finding the right bra for her ample square breasts, until she came across something at a garage sale. It was the cutest wire cupcake rack but there was one problem the straps were too short. So she took two feathers from her hair and fastened them into the straps to make them longer. But something was still missing. She asked her sister-in-law (who by the way had a very poor relationship with her mother) for suggestions. Betty Lou told her to be like Stress Dog. If you can't play with it, eat it, then pee on it and walk away. Indeed, she walked away laughing after peeing on her mother in law's feather.
But wait the real reason her mother-in-law did not like her was because she took her precious little son away from her home where he still lived until the wedding. You see, the mother-in-law hates her husband and the only male she can stand is her son. That leaves Linda only one option... she has to find a way to get rid of her mother-in-law.
Dave and Linda come up with a brilliant plan of buying mother a beach house in Jamaica, as she's always wanted to live in Jamaica. Soon after she moves to Jamaica she meets a great Jamaican guy and they fall in love. Dave and Linda hardly ever hear from mother now. Life is good.

It's Wednesday so that means it's question time. It's time to ponder and then answer just one question. Okay, you can add all you want as a reason for your answer too. We'd all like that.So here's this weeks question: What's something that can make your day enjoyable?
Having hubby tell me he loves me as soon as he wakes up. He tells me every single morning. It makes me smile and makes the whole day enjoyable.
Declaring War
Don't mess with the South!!! We mean business.President Barack Obama was in the Oval Office when his telephone rang.
"Hello, President Obama a heavily accented southern voice said. "This is Jimmy Boy, down here at Bump's Catfish Shack in Vicksburg and I am callin' to tell y'all that we are officially declaring war on y'all!"
"Well Jimmy Boy," Barack replied, "This is indeed important news! How big is your army?"
"Right now," said Jimmy Boy, after a moments calculation "there is myself, my brother Mikey, my cousin Tom, my next-door-neighbor and his brother Gerald, and the whole dart team from JD's Bait Shop. That makes eight or maybe nine depending if Bump can close the store.
Barack paused. "I must tell you Jimmy Boy that I have one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."
"Wow," said Jimmy Boy. "I'll have to call ya back!"
Sure enough, the next day, Jimmy Boy called again. "Mr. Obama, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some infantry equipment!"
"And what equipment would that be, Jimmy Boy?" Barack asked.
"Well sir, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and my brother Mikey's farm tractor."
President Obama sighed. "I must tell you, Jimmy Boy, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armored personnel carriers. Also I've increased my army to one and a half million since we last spoke."
"Lord above", said Jimmy Boy, "I'll be wichya."
Sure enough, Jimmy Boy called again the next day. "President Obama! I am sorry to have to tell you that we have had to call off this here war."
"I'm sorry to hear that" said Barack. "Why the sudden change of heart?"
Well, sir," said Jimmy Boy, "we've all sat ourselves down and had a long chat over sweet tea, catfish, grits, greens and pie and come to realize that there's just no way we can feed that many prisoners."
SOUTHERN CONFIDENCE CANNOT BE SHAKEN!

A Test
Depending on how you ask the questions, you can force the answer you seek! Remember 43% of polls are wrong, the other 78% are made up! Don't jump to the answer, just scroll down. Take this test mentally, don't write down your answers, and don't shout them out.- Pick a number from 2 to 9. It can be 2 or it can be 9, or any number in between.
- Take that number that you've chosen, and multiply it by 9.
- That should give you a two digit number. Take those two digits and add them together.
- Take the resulting number and subtract 5 from it.
- Take that number and correspond it to the alphabet, numbering the letters. A =1, B=2, C=3, and so on...
- Take your letter, and think of a country that begins with that letter.
- Take the last letter in the name of that country, and think of an animal.
- Now, take the last letter in the name of that animal, and think of a color.
- But remember, that there are no orange kangaroos in Denmark.

The Comment Game
It's time to play the comment game again. We are off to an IOBG yachting event at one of the members ranch. We are land lovers today and we'll be enjoying each others company and a BBQ to die for. Did you know that boaters eat really well and there is usually plenty of cold adult beverages too. Not while we're driving our boats though.Here's how it goes: I'll start the game off at the bottom of this post by choosing two words or phrases, like coffee or tea, and which ever one you prefer you choose. You can also explain why. When you have done that you do two new words or phrases for the next commenter to choose from. Feel free to come back as often as you like. Just have fun. If someone derails the game will one of you put it back on track? Thanks.
First comment: A dry rub or BBQ sauce?

I gained a pound eating that great birthday dinner on Wednesday. A whole pound. That baked potato with the works was pure heaven, as was my garlic bread. Okay it was all good.Babies are the greatest. I love to watch them discover themselves and the world around them. Fascinating.
I am getting a kick out of the Chick-fil-A controversy. Their business is booming. Freedom of speech folks. If there was a Chick-fil-A here I'd go and have lunch too. I'm not against gay folks being together. They have just as much right to happiness as everyone else does. I'm against anyone that wants to take away freedom of speech. I didn't take what the CEO said as disrespectful. He was asked and he answered truthfully. It was his opinion. We can't all agree on every single issue, but that seems to be what many want, as long as you see it their way.Have you noticed how long two days takes during the week but the two days on the weekend go by in a flash?
It's been hotter than the blazes in many parts of the United States this summer. It's been a very mild summer here in the central valley of California. I've worn jackets in the mornings and that's something that usually doesn't happen.
It's the weekend and that means it's time for all of us to rest and process this week. Time to look forward to doing something fun. You know like boating. Have a fabulous weekend.
Family
Today we celebrated my first granddaughters 21st birthday. She set the menu of steaks, baked potato with all the fixings, French green beans with bacon bits, macaroni and cheese, garlic bread and of course a birthday cake.
The very best part was getting to see my great granddaughter Audi. She's a year and a half and is so very happy.

Wednesdays Question #60
It's Wednesday so that means it's question time. It's time to ponder and then answer just one question. Okay, you can add all you want as a reason for your answer too. We'd all like that.So here's this weeks question: What's your favorite outdoor activity?
I know you're all going to be shocked, but I'd have to say boating. Everything that goes along with boating too. Yacht clubs, activities out on the water. It's a completely different perspective out on the water than it is on land.
