My friend Larry the computer guy just sent me this, and it is a fortunate thing, that this is very short. I don't have the time to "copy and paste" anything any longer! We got slammed with enough snow last night, to close down all the schools, and the senior center where I slave. For most people, that would mean a day off, but none of them live with Marilyn. Nuff said? Guy I was in the restaurant yesterday, when I suddenly realized that I desperately needed to pass gas. The music was really,... Sign in to see full entry.

Isn't it nice to unexpectedly hear from an old friend? Cricket chirps again
This was just sent to me by Hazel St. Cricket, that much missed little scamp! I decided to share it with you, ( I doubt she'd mind ) and I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did. Maybe she misses being a blogit blogger, as much as we all miss her! We can only hope she will return to Blogitvile, and SOON. Guy A Short Love Story A man and a woman who had never met before, and who were both married to other people, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping compartment, on a sold out...

Mild-mannered unsung American war heroes. You wouldn't guess WHO they WERE!
Today, on super bowl Sunday, Americans will gather in front of their televisions to cheer on their favorite football sports heroes. Here is something about two heroes of mine, who risked everything for us, and made such celebrations possible for us who weren't there, facing horrible death and injury, without backing down, or blinking. These are the REAL heroes, as far as I am concerned. Take a moment to read this, and be happy for all of the soldiers that never returned to our shores, but will... Sign in to see full entry.

The wisdom of Will Rogers. He's "one of a kind!" We sure could use him now!
Will Rogers, who died in a plane crash with Wylie Post in 1935, was probably the greatest political sage this country has ever known. Enjoy the following: 1. Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco 2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day. 3. There are 2 theories to arguing with a woman...neither one works. 4. Never miss a good chance to shutup. 5. Always drink upstream from the herd. 6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. 7. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it, and put it... Sign in to see full entry.

This is one of my father's FAVORITE blogs I've written. I REALLY miss him!
I can't believe that this was less than a year ago! According to the date on this email, when I sent this to my dad, ( among the last he ever read ) it was March, of '09, but it feels as though it was much longer ago, than that. This is a polished up reposting of it, I was just going over old emails, thinking of him. Sorry if you clicked on it, hoping for something fresh and new.

A little IRreligious humor, for your reading pleasure. Five funny jokes.
First off, let me tell you I have nothing whatever against those who are Catholics. I'm not crazy about the Catholic Church heirarchy, but I could say the same thing about every organized religion, political party, and those who judge others and feel qualified to decide what should be done to them, their families, their lives and their treasure. "Unless you have walked in MY shoes," etc. That said, humor is an equal opportunity offender, and I'm happy to help out humor, and promote it, in any... Sign in to see full entry.
Questions of Life & death. Do ONLY Woody Allen and I, wonder about these?
Is it morbid curiosity to wonder what will be the last thing that I will see, as I die? Will it be one of those overhead lights in a hospital emergency room, or oncoming headlights? Will it be the face of a gunman, or an EMT as he futilely fights to save my life? Will my last conscious moment be spent looking into the eyes of loved ones? Will my final days be a nightmare of agony, or spent in a drugged haze, about as self-aware as a houseplant? I have only flown in aircraft a handful of times... Sign in to see full entry.

I will only see "Avatar," when it's released on a DVD, or is shown on TV!
Recently, someone asked me if I’ve gone to see Avatar, yet. I told them that I don’t see recently released movies, until I can rent the DVD and watch it at home. My friend asked me why I don’t go to a walk-in theater to enjoy movies, while they are still fresh and being talked about, and added that the experience is far more enjoyable when viewed on the great big silver screen. “Not for me,” I said. Paying close to $10 to go to a mall mega-plex for a movie viewing experience gives me “ sticker... Sign in to see full entry.

Most accidents occur at home & I'm NOT talking about making KIDS, either!
This is something that I posted a little over two years ago but it could happen again, at any time that I let my vigilance slacken, and it is good for me to keep this near catastrophe in mind, whenever I have to change our propane tank. During the bitter cold of a Michigan winter, this is necessary every three weeks, or even more often, depending on if Marilyn has been offering free showers and laundry services for most of our neighbors! It has been more than TWO YEARS, since this happened? I... Sign in to see full entry.

Oh, the trials and tribulations of being a sage! It ain't EASY, being me!
Today, I ran just a little bit short on the off-white paint, I had chosen for my living room, and since I had bought the first gallon of paint at my local ( 40 miles away!) Wal-Mart, I needed to go back, to assure that I would buy the perfect color-matching paint. My problem was that I don’t even OWN an appropriately outlandish-looking costume, one fit for wearing to an urban Wal-Mart! No, I don’t have a weird, strange looking, sage’s uniform, and if I did have one, and wore it, how would the... Sign in to see full entry.
