Some fun for your Monday
Posted in: Uncategorized
It’s always good to start the week off with a smile…especially when it comes from children…enjoy
Why we love children?
1) NUDITY
I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, ‘Mom, that lady isn’t wearing a seat belt!’
2) OPINIONS
Onthe first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a note from his mother. The note read, ‘The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents.’
3) KETCHUP
A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone. ‘Mommy can’t come to the phone to talk to you right now. She’s hitting the bottle.’
4) MORE NUDITY
A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women’s locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, ‘What’s the matter, haven’t you ever seen a little boy before?’
While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about 6 years old.. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, ‘Are you a cop? Yes,’ I answered and continued writing the report.. My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?’ ‘Yes, that’s right,’ I told her. ‘Well, then,’ she said as she extended her foot toward me, ‘would you please tie my shoe?’
6) POLICE # 2
It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake , was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. ‘Is that a dog you got back there?’ he asked. ’It sure is,’ I replied.
Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, ‘What’d he do?’
While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs.. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, ‘The tooth fairy will never believe this!’
A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, ‘Daddy, you shouldn’t wear that suit.’ ‘And why not, darling?’ ‘You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning.’
While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin.. Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased. The minister’s son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his father always said: ‘Glory be unto the Faaather, and unto the Sonnn, and into the hole he goooes.’ (I want this line used at my funeral!)

7) ELDERLY
While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs.. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass.

DRESS-UP
A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, ‘Daddy, you shouldn’t wear that suit.’ ‘And why not, darling?’ ‘You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning.’
9) DEATH
While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin.. Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased.

10) SCHOOL
A little girl had just finished her first week of school. ‘I’m just wasting my time,’ she said to her mother. ‘I can’t read, I can’t
write, and they won’t let me talk!’
A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was fascinated as he fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible. He picked up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old leaf that had been pressed in between the pages. ‘Mama, look what I found,’ the boy called out.. ‘What have you got there, dear?’
With astonishment in the young boy’s voice, he answered, ‘I think it’s Adam’s underwear!’

I was more scared than she was!!
Posted in: Uncategorized
The other day I took Caelee to Toys-R-Us to check out the goodies for Christmas. It’s never to early to do advance scouting for Santa Claus. We were by Park Meadows Mall and right next door there used to be a book store. It is gone and they have put in a temporary Halloween store in there. Well, I thought it would fun to take Caelee in there to look around, she is only 4. I thought it might be a little scary for her. We walk in and the first thing that happens is a large bat flys out of the rafters and right at us. I let a little scream, like a sissy. Not Caelee, she thought it was cool and says to me…..”don’t worry PaPoo it’s only fake”…..that felt good

WHAT R YOU GONNA DO!!!!!!1
Posted in: Uncategorized
Spent last weekend in Raleigh, NC for my niece’s wedding. Had a great time. It was good to see my Dad, my brother and his family. Here’s a great picture of the back of my head, with my brother, Charlie, his wife Cathy, and my dad..
I do have several observations I’d like to share with you. It’s very strange but my dad’s favorite expression is “What are you gonna do”. He pretty much says it with everything. Like “Dad, the food was good but the coffee was cold”…”Whatr gonna do”…..”Dad…I can’t believe the weather here”….(same response)…or…” Dad, people from Mars just landed and are destroying earth…”Whatr you gonna do”
Another thing….nobody wants to pay for their bags, so everybody bring them on the plane, it takes forever to get on and off the thing!!!
After you set in your seat, put the arm rest down, the guy next to me was clearly over the line, also, when sitting in an isle seat (where I like to sit), 9 out of 10 people who bump into you will not say…Sorry!
That’s all I got, it was a great trip!
