Fairy Tale

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

This is the fairy tale that should have been read to us when we were
little:

Once upon a time
~~~~~~~~
in a land far away,
~~~~~~~~
a beautiful, independent,
self-assured princess
~~~~~~~~
happened upon a frog as she sat
contemplating ecological issues
on the shores of an unpolluted pond
in a verdant meadow near her environmentally green castle.
~~~~~~~~
The frog hopped into the princess’ lap
and said: ” Elegant Lady,
I was once a handsome prince,
until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.
~~~~~~~~
One kiss from you, however,
and I will turn back
into the dapper, young prince that I am
~~~~~~~~
and then, my sweet, we can marry
~~~~~~~~
and set up housekeeping in your castle
~~~~~~~~
with my mother,
~~~~~~~~
where you can prepare my meals,
~~~~~~~~
clean my clothes, bear my children,
~~~~~~~~
and forever feel
grateful and happy doing so. ”
~~~~~~~~
That night,
~~~~~~~~
as the princess dined sumptuously
~~~~~~~~
on lightly sauteed frog legs
~~~~~~~~
seasoned in a white wine
~~~~~~~
and onion cream sauce,
~~~~~~~~
she chuckled and thought to herself:
~~~~~~~~
I don’t think so.

Think Before You Speak

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Here are six reasons why you  should think before you speak–

The last one is great!

Have you ever spoken and wished that you could

Immediately take the words back…

or that you could crawl into a hole?

Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did…

FIRST TESTIMONY:

I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow and asked loudly,

‘How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?’

I turned around and walked back out and never went back.

My husband didn’t say a word…

he knew better.

SECOND TESTIMONY:

I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of

golf balls.

I was unhappy with the women’s type I had been using.

After browsing for several minutes,

I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the store.

He asked if he could help me.

Without thinking, I looked at him and said, ‘I think I like playing with men’s balls.’

THIRD TESTIMONY:

My sister and I were at the mall and

passed by a store that sold a

variety of candy and nuts.

As we were looking at the display case,

the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help.

I replied, ‘No, I’m just looking at your nuts.’

My sister started to laugh hysterically.

The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away.

To this day, my sister has never let me forget .

FOURTH TESTIMONY :

While in line at the bank one afternoon,

my toddler decided to release

some pent-up energy and ran amok.

I was finally able to grab hold of

her after receiving looks of disgust

and annoyance from other patrons.

I told her that if she did not start behaving

‘right now’ she would be punished.

To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice  just as threatening,

‘If you don’t let me go right now,

I will tell Grandma that I saw you

kissing Daddy’s pee-pee last night!’

The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange.

Even the tellers stopped what they were doing.

I mustered up the last of my dignity  and

walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow.

The last thing I heard when the door closed behind me, were screams of laughter.

FIFTH TESTIMONY:

Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?

My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly.

One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch, in between errands.

It was very busy, with a full dining room.

While enjoying my taco,

I smelled something funny,

so of course I checked

my seven-month-old daughter, she was clean.

Then I realized that  Danny

had not asked to go potty in a while.

I asked him if he needed to GO,

and he said ‘No.’

I kept thinking,

‘Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don’t have any extra clothes with me.’

Then I said,

‘ Danny , are you SU RE you didn’t have an accident?’

‘No,’ he replied.

I just KNEW  that he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse.

Soooooo, I asked one more time, ‘ Danny did you have an accident?’ This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants,

bent over, spread his cheeks

and yelled,

‘SEE MOM, IT’S JUST FARTS!!’

While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing,

he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down.

An old couple made me feel better,

thanking me for the best laugh they’d ever had!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:

This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days

and a very embarrassed female news anchor who  will,

in the future, likely think before she speaks.

What happens when you predict snow but don’t get any!

We had a female news anchor that,

the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn’t,

turned to the weatherman and asked:’So Bob, where’s that 8 inches you promised me last night?’

Not only did HE have to leave the set,

but half the crew did too they were laughing so hard !

Now, didn’t that feel good?

Pass it on to someone you know who needs a laugh

and remember

we all say things we don’t really mean,

so think before you speak!

Old Man on the beach–watch out!!!

Rescuing Hug

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

You have just been hugged!

This is the start of a full-scale Hug O’ War!

So hug everyone you know!

The hug is my favorite sign of affection.

It can mean so much, and many things at the same time.

It can be a sign of love, support, caring, comfort or anything.

So here you go. All I can say it will do is brighten someone’s day.

I mean, we all need a hug once in a while.

So send this on if you’d like, to anyone who may need a hug,
send it back to whoever sent it to you,
Goodness knows, we could all REALLY use a hug sometimes.

Soooo . enjoy your hug and pass one on to someone else . .

especially, someone that really needs one! Thanks …

A man bumps into a woman in a hotel lobby and as he does, his elbow goes into her breast.
They are both quite startled.

I know you’ll forgive me.’

One day a few weeks later, Bill came home and his wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong.

‘What’s wrong, Bill?’ she asked. ‘Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?’ ‘Oh, Bill, you didn’t’ she exclaimed.

‘Yes, I did.’ he replied.

‘My God, Bill, what happened?’

‘I got fired.’ ‘No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?’ ‘Oh…she got fired too.’

‘Well,’ Granny snickered. ‘Let’s relive some old times.’ Where upon, the two stripped to the buff and sat down at the table.
