A Crimmus Poem

Wuz de nite befo Crimmus
And all ower da hood;
Ereybody wuz’ sleepin’;
Dey wuz sleepin’ reel good.

We hunged up our stockings;
An hoped like de’ heck;

Be bringin’ our check.

All o’de fambily;

While Ripple and Thunderbird;
Danced trew dey heads.

I passed out inna’ flo;
Right nex to my Maw;
When I herd sech a fuss;
I thunk: “It mus be de law!!!”

I looked out thru de bars;
What covered my doe;

And what did I see;
I said, “Lawd look at dat!!!”
Ther’ wuz a huge watta’ mellon;
Pulled by giant warf rats!!!

Now ober all de years;

But looks liken us bros;
Gets a black Sanna dis nite.

A boy had reached four without giving up the habit of sucking his thumb, though his mother had tried everything from bribery
to reasoning to painting it with lemon juice to discourage the habit.

Finally she tried threats, warning her son that, "If you don't stop sucking your thumb, your stomach is going to blow up
like a balloon."

Later that day, walking in the park, mother and son saw a pregnant woman sitting on a bench.

The four-year-old considered her gravely for a minute, then spoke to her saying, "Uh-oh ... I know what you've been doing."

One day, a cowboy rode into a Wild, Wild West town.

The people in the town love to play jokes on visitors. After tying his horse to the pole outside a bar, the cowboy went in.
"A cup of milk please." he said to the bartender.

After drinking, he went out, only to find his horse missing. Knowing that the villagers did it, he went back into the bar
and said to everybody," I am going to have another drink and when I finish it, I want to see my horse outside! Or else, I
will have to do what I did in Texas - HERE!"

The people were very frightened. When he finished his drink, he went outside and saw his horse. The villagers had put it
back.

Curious, the bartender asked the cowboy,” What did you do in Texas?"

The Cowboy replied," Well, I had to walk home.

9 fateful months

July 8th 1947 and its significance in our time.

Many will recall that on July 8, 1947, witnesses claimed that an unidentified object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a
sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico.

This is a well-known incident that many say has long been covered up by the US Air Force and the federal government.

However, you may NOT know that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic day:

George W. Bush,
Dick Cheney,
Donald Rumsfield,
Bill O'Reilly and
Rush Limbaugh,

...were all born!!!

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep.

This piece of information may clear up a lot of things.

A panda bear walks into a bar and orders a sandwich.

The waiter brings him the sandwich. The panda bear eats it, pulls out a pistol, kills the waiter, and gets up and starts to
walk out.

The bartender yells for him to stop. The panda bear asks, "What do you want?"

The bartender replies, "First you come in here, order food, kill my waiter, then try to go without paying for your food."
The panda bear turns around and says, "Hey! I'm a Panda. Look it up!"

The bartender goes into the back room and looks up panda bear in the encyclopedia, which read: "Panda: a bear-like marsupial
originating in Asian regions. Known largely for it's stark black and white coloring.

Eats shoots and leaves."

-----------------

During a dinner party, the hosts’ two little children entered the dinning room totally nude and walked slowly around the
table.

The parents were so embarrassed that they pretended nothing was happening and kept he conversation going. The guests
cooperated and also continued as if nothing extraordinary was happening.

After going all the way around the room, the children left, and there was a moment of silence at the table, during which one
child was heard to say, “You see, it is vanishing cream!”

If Operating Systems Were Airlines - oldie

DOS Air: Passengers walk out onto the runway, grab hold of the plane, push it until it gets in the air, hop on, then jump
off when it hits the ground. They grab the plane again, push it back into the air, hop on, jump off...

Mac Airways: The cashiers, flight attendants, and pilots all look the same, talk the same, and act the same. When you ask
them questions about the flight, they reply that you don't want to know, don't need to know, and would you please return to
your seat and watch the movie.

Windows Airlines: The terminal is neat and clean, the attendants courteous, the pilots capable. The fleet of Lear jets the
carrier operates is immense. Your jet takes off without a hitch, pushes above the clouds and, at 20,000 feet, explodes
without warning.

OS/2 Skyways: The terminal is almost empty - only a few prospective passengers mill about. The announcer says that a flight
has just departed, although no planes appear to be on the runway. Airline personnel apologize profusely to customers in
hushed voices, pointing from time to time to the sleek, powerful jets outside. They tell each passenger how great the flight
will be on these new jets and how much safer it will be than Windows Airlines, but they will have to wait a little longer
for the technicians to finish the flight systems. Maybe until mid-2005. Maybe longer

An Uncle's Tale

Judy Wallman, a professional genealogical researcher, discovered that
Hillary Clinton's great-great uncle, Remus Rodham, was hanged for horse
stealing and train robbery in Montana in 1889.

The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the Gallows. On
the back of the picture is this inscription: "Remus Rodham; horse thief,
sent to Montana Territorial Prison 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Montana
Flyer six times. Caught by Pinkerton detectives, convicted and hanged in
1889.

Judy e-mailed Hillary Clinton for comments. Hillary's staff of professional
image adjusters sent back the following biographical sketch:

"Remus Rodham was a famous cowboy in the Montana Territory . His business
empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and
intimate dealings with the Montana railroad. Beginning in 1883, he devoted
several years of his life to service at a government facility, finally
taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad. In 1887, he was a
key player in a vital investigation run by the renowned Pinkerton Detective
Agency. In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held
in his honor when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed."

And THAT is how it's done, folks!

------------------

At a Catholic school, there was a "meet the teacher" open house for the 2nd graders.

After the meeting, a Nun announced that there would be a small reception afterwards in the cafeteria. All the children and
parents filed in, and saw on a table a plate of apples, a plate of cookies, and some water bottles and juice.

As the children went through the line, one boy saw that there was a sign on the plate of apples that said, "Take only one.
God is watching."

So, the boy took an apple and moved on to the cookies. He helped himself, and then took a small piece of paper, and wrote:
"Take all you want”. God is watching the apples."

---------------

The local sheriff was looking for a deputy, so Gomer, who was not exactly the sharpest nail in the bucket, went in to try
out for the job.

"Okay," the sheriff drawled, "Gomer, what is 1 and 1?"

"11" he replied.

The sheriff thought to himself, "That's not what I meant, but he's right. What two days of the week start with the letter
'T'?"

"Today and tomorrow."

The sheriff was again surprised that Gomer supplied a correct answer that he had never thought of himself.

"Now Gomer, listen carefully: Who killed Abraham Lincoln?"

Gomer looked a little surprised himself, then thought really hard for a minute and finally admitted, "I don't know."

"Well, why don't you go home and work on that one for a while?"

So, Gomer wandered over to the barbershop where his pals were waiting to hear the results of the interview. Gomer was
exultant. "It went great! First day on the job and I'm already working on a murder case!"

A tourist walked into a Brighton curio/antique shop.

After looking around for a while, he noticed a very life-like bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but it was so
striking that he decided to buy it anyway.

He took it to the owner and said: "How much is this bronze rat?"

The owner replied: "It's £12 for the rat, and £100 for the story."

The tourist gave the owner his £12 and said: "I'll just take the rat, you can keep the story."

As he walked off down the street, he noticed that a few real rats had crawled out of the sewers and begun following him.
This was a little disconcerting, so he started to walk a little faster, but within a couple of blocks the swarm of rats had
grown to hundreds, and they were all squealing and screeching in a very menacing way. He increased his speed & ran on
towards the beach, and as he ran, he looked behind him and saw the rats now numbered in their MILLIONS, and they were
running faster & faster.

By now very concerned, he ran to down the pier and threw the bronze rat far out into the water. Amazingly, the millions of
real rats jumped into the water after it and were all drowned.

The man walked back to relate all this to the shop owner, who said: "Ah,you've come back for the story then?"

"No," said the tourist, "I came back to see if you've got a bronze Muslim fundamentalist cleric, a poof, a Man Utd
supporter, and anything French!"
