A young family moved into a house, next to a vacant lot. One day, a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot.
The young family’s 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and spent much of each day observing the workers.
Eventually the construction crew, all of them “gems-in-the-rough,” more or less, adopted her as a project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.
At the end of the first week, they even presented her with a pay envelope containing ten dollars. The little girl took this home to her mother who suggested that she take her ten dollars “pay” she’d received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.
When the girl and her mom got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young age.
The little girl proudly replied,  “I worked last week with a real work crew building the new house next door to us.”
“Oh my goodness gracious,” said the teller, “and will you be working on the house again this week too?”
The little girl replied, “I will if those assholes at Home Depot ever deliver the f**king sheet rock…”
Kind of brings a tear to the eye, doesn’t it?

One Sunday morning an old cowboy entered a church just before services were to begin. Although the old man and his clothes were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt and boots that were very worn and ragged.In his hand he carried a worn out old hat and a equally worn out Bible. The church he entered was in a very upscale and exclusive part of the city. It was the largest and most beautiful church the old cowboy had ever seen. The people of the congregation were all dressed with expensive clothes and accessories.
As the cowboy took a seat, the others moved away from him. No one greeted, spoke to or welcomed him. They were all appalled at his appearance and did not attempt to hide it.
As the old cowboy was leaving the church, the preacher approached him and asked the cowboy to do him a favor: “Before you come back in here again, have a talk with God and ask him what he thinks would be appropriate attire for worship.”
The old cowboy assured the preacher he would.
But the next Sunday, he showed back up for the services wearing the same ragged jeans, shirt, boots and hat.
Once again he was completely shunned and ignored. The preacher approached the man and said, “I thought I asked you to speak to God before you came back to our church.”
“I did,” replied the old cowboy.
“If you spoke to God, what did he tell you proper attire should be for worshiping in here?” asked the preacher.
“Well, sir, God told me that He didn’t have a clue what I should wear. He said He’d never been in here before.”

A drunken man walks into a biker bar, sits down at the bar, and orders a drink. Looking around, he sees 3 men sitting at a corner table. He gets up, staggers to the table, leans over, looks at the biggest, meanest one in the face and says, “I went by your grandma’s house today and I saw her in the hallway buck naked. Man, she is a fine looking woman!”
The biker looks at him and doesn’t say a word. His buddies are confused, because he is one bad biker and would fight at the drop of a hat.
The drunk leans on the table again and says, “I got it on with your grandma and she is good, the best I ever had!”
The biker’s buddies are starting to get really mad, but the biker still says nothing.
The drunk leans on the table one more time and says, “I’ll tell you something else, boy, your grandma liked it!”
At this point the biker stands up, takes the drunk by the shoulders, and says…
“Grandpa, you’re drunk… Go home!”

During the service, the pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express praise for prayers, which had been answered.
A lady stood up and came forward.
She said, “I have a reason to thank the Lord.”
“Two months ago, my husband, Jim, had a terrible bicycle wreck and his scrotum was completely crushed.”
“The pain was excruciating and the doctors didn’t know if they could help him.”
You could hear an audible gasp from the men in the congregation as they imagined the pain that poor Jim experienced.
She continued, “Jim was unable to hold me or the children and every move caused him terrible pain.”
“We prayed as the doctors performed a delicate operation.”
“They were able to piece together the crushed remnants of Jim’s scrotum and wrap wire around it to hold it in place.”
Again, the men in the Congregation squirmed uncomfortably as they imagined the horrible surgery performed on Jim.
She continued, “Now, Jim is out of the hospital and the doctors say, with time, his scrotum should recover completely.”
All the men sighed with relief.
The pastor rose and tentatively asked if anyone else had anything to say.
A man rose and walked slowly to the podium.
He said, “I’m Jim and I would like to tell my beautiful blonde wife, the word is “sternum.”

Hellokitty girl!

The only joke I can think of is the one my ten year old godson told me last weekend.

Q: why is a baseball stadium so cool?

A: there's a fan in every seat.

A blonde lady motorist was about two hours from San Diego when she was flagged down by a man whose truck had broken down.
The man walked up to the car and asked, “Are you going to San Diego?”
“Sure,” answered the blonde, “do you need a lift?”
“Not for me. I’ll be spending the next three hours fixing my truck.
My problem is I’ve got two chimpanzees in the back that have to be taken to the San Diego Zoo. They’re a bit stressed already so I don’t want to keep them on the road all day. Could you possibly take them to the zoo for me? I’ll give you $100 for your trouble.”
“I’d be happy to,” said the blonde.
So the two chimpanzees were ushered into the back seat of the blonde’s car and carefully strapped into their seat belts, and off they went.
Five hours later, the truck driver was driving through the heart of San Diego when suddenly he was horrified! There was the blonde walking down the street, holding hands with the two chimps, much to the amusement of a big crowd.
With a screech of brakes he pulled off the road and ran over to the blonde. “What are you doing here?” he demanded, “I gave you $100 to take these chimpanzees to the zoo.”
“Yes, I know you did,” said the blonde. “But we had money left over so now we’re going to Sea World.”

Dr: have you ever had your eyes checked?
Blonde: no doctor, they've always been blue.

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen.  He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.

“Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!”, he yelled with surprising forcefulness.

No one answered.

“Alright, I’m gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain’t back outside by the time I finish, I’m gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don’t like to have to do what I dun in Texas!”

Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post.

He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, “Say partner, before you go… what happened in Texas?”

The cowboy turned back and said, “I had to walk home.”

Little pictures have big ears...

My granddaughter reminded me of that, years ago. We'd had a kid free house for the most part back in the days of Windows 95 and dial-up, and I was having troubles with a laptop and system crashes. After several efforts, (and crashes, I threw my hands up in the air and said, empahtically, "Son of a Bi*ch!") before taking a break. Mrs Joe gave me one of those looks and I remembered My (then two year old) granddaughter was in the room, coloring at the table behind me. (Oops).

Fast forward a couple of weeks, and she wanted to watch a movie on the VCR. Not knowing there was already a movie in the machine, she tried to put the tape in. It fell out. she turned it around and tried again. It fell out. She flipped it over and tried. It fell out. She turned the inverted tape around and tried to put it in, having now patiently worked through the four possibilities for orientation. It fell out. "Son of a B*tch!"  I got one of those looks from Mrs. Joe and the opportunity to explain why it wasn't a good thing for little girls to say...and then showed her how to get the movie out so hers would go in.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Once there was a man who drove the train for a living. He loved it; it was something he’d wanted to do since he was a little boy. His favorite part was making the train go as fast as possible.

One day, however, because he was going so fast, the train got into an accident. The man made it out safely but unfortunately, one passenger died. The man was put on trial, found guilty, and sentenced to execution.
 
The day came when the man was meant to be executed and he requested a banana for his last meal. He ate his banana, sat in the chair, and the executioner flipped the switch. Sparks flew, but the man emerged alive.  Now, around this time there was a law that stated if a person were to survive an execution, it was a sign of divine intervention and the prisoner was to be let go. So, the man was released.

He got his job back as a train driver, and having learned nothing from his previous mistakes, continued on driving the train recklessly. Of course, the train soon got into another accident.

Again, the man was put on trial, found guilty and sentenced to death.  And for his last meal, he requested two bananas. He ate his bananas, was strapped into the chair, and the executioner flipped the switch. Once again, the man was totally fine, and released.

Now, would you believe that he got his old job back again? Our reckless train driver seemed to have learned nothing, because he continued to drive the train overly fast and recklessly. Of course, he got into an accident for a third time.

Once again the man was put on trial, found guilty, and sentenced to death. The day came and he requested his last meal - three bananas. At this point the executioner said, “No, I’m sick of you coming in here, eating your banana and walking out unscathed. Let’s just do this.”

So, without eating his bananas, the man was strapped to the electric chair, the executioner flipped the switch and - the man was completely unharmed. The executioner was dumbfounded.

“Oh, the bananas have nothing to do with it,” the man explained, “I’m just a bad conductor.”

Now, would you believe that he got his old job back again? Our reckless train driver seemed to have learned nothing, because he continued to drive the train overly fast and recklessly. Of course, he got into an accident for a third time.

Once again the man was put on trial, found guilty, and sentenced to death. The day came and he requested his last meal - three bananas. At this point the executioner said, “No, I’m sick of you coming in here, eating your banana and walking out unscathed. Let’s just do this.”

So, without eating his bananas, the man was strapped to the electric chair, the executioner flipped the switch and - the man was completely unharmed. The executioner was dumbfounded.

“Oh, the bananas have nothing to do with it,” the man explained, “I’m just a bad conductor.”
HA HA!

Privacy Concerns Go Far Afield When Image of Cow's Face is Blurred
Photos of a particularly "moo-dest" cow, whose face was blurred in Google Street View, have gone viral on social media.

Google Street View posted on its website that it automatically blurs faces and license plates in its imagery to protect people's privacy.

It appears that Google also sought to protect the identity of this cow, whose face becomes blurred when a Street View user approaches it more closely as it peacefully grazes in Cambridge, England.

Reading this will enlighten you

 I became confused when I heard the word "Service" used with these agencies:

 Internal Revenue 'Service'
 U.S. Postal 'Service'
 Telephone 'Service'
 Cable TV 'Service'
 Civil 'Service'
 State, City, County & Public 'Service'
 Customer 'Service'

 This is what I thought 'Service' meant.

 But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to 'Service' a few cows.
 BAM!!! It all came into focus. Now I understand what all those agencies are doing to us.

 You are now as enlightened as I am.

One winter morning a husband and wife in northern Colorado were listening to

 the radio during breakfast. They heard the announcer say, "We are going to
 have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered
 side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."

 So the good wife went out and moved her car.

 A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer said,
 "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the
 odd-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."
 The good wife went out and moved her car again.

 The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says,
 "We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park..." Then the
 electric power went out.

 The good wife was very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said,
 "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on
 so the snowplows can get through?"


 With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married to Blondes exhibit, the husband replied,

 "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?"

Father O'Malley rose from his bed. It was a fine spring day in his new Washington DC parish. He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of air and to see the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.

 He promptly called the US House of Representatives for assistance.

 The conversation went like this: "Good morning. This is Speaker Pelosi. How might I help you?"

 "And the best of the day te yerself. This is Father O'Malley at St..Brigid's. There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn. Would ye be so kind as to send a couple o' yer lads to take care of the matter?"

 Speaker Pelosi, considering herself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk, "Well now father, it was always my impression that you people took care of last rites!" There was dead silence on the line for a long moment.

 Father O'Malley then replied: "Aye, that's certainly true, but we are also obliged to first notify the next of kin."

A wife's love

 A very old man lay dying in his bed. In death's doorway, he suddenly smelled the aroma of his favorite chocolate chip cookie wafting up the stairs.

 He gathered his remaining strength and lifted himself from the bed. Leaning against the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom, and with even greater effort forced himself down the stairs, gripping the railing with both hands.

 With labored breath, he leaned against the door frame, gazing into the kitchen. Were it not for death's agony, he would have thought himself already in heaven.

 There, spread out on newspapers on the kitchen table were literally hundreds of his favorite chocolate chip cookies.

 Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of heroic love from his devoted wife, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man?

 Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself toward the table.. The aged and withered hand, shaking, made its way to a cookie at the edge of the table, when he was suddenly smacked with a spatula by his wife.

 "Stay out of those," she said. "They're for the funeral.
