Giving money and power to government is like giving
whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. ~P.J. O'Rourke
If all the economists were laid end to end, they'd never reach a
conclusion. ~George Bernard Shaw
Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual
rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on
what to have for supper. ~Larry Flynt
If you want to understand your government, don't begin by reading
the Constitution. (It conveys precious little of the flavor of
today's statecraft.) Instead, read selected portions of the
Washington D.C. telephone directory containing listings for all the
organizations with titles beginning with the word National. ~George
Will

HOW TO MATCH GOVERNMENT JOB APPLICANTS TO APPROPRIATE POSITIONS
Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with
an open window.
Then send 2 or 3 candidates into the room and close the door. Leave
them alone and come back after 6 hours. Then analyze the situation:
1. If they are counting the bricks, put them in the accounting
department.
2. If they are recounting them, put them in auditing.
3. If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks, put them
in engineering.
4. If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order, put them
in planning.
5. If they are throwing the bricks at each other, put them in
operations.
6. If they are sleeping, put them in security.
7. If they have broken the bricks into pieces, put them in
information technology.
8. If they are sitting idle, put them in human resources.
9. If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a
brick has been moved, put them in sales.
10. If they have already left for the day, put them in marketing.
11. If they are staring out of the window, put them in strategic
planning.
12. If they are talking to each other, and not a single brick has
been moved, congratulate them and put them in top management.
13. Finally, if they have surrounded themselves with bricks in such
a way that they can neither be seen nor heard from, put them in
Congress.

DEMOCRATS AND COMMUNITY SERVICE
One day a florist goes to a barber for a haircut. After the cut he
asked about his bill and the barber replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot
accept money from you; I'm doing community service this week" The
florist is pleased and leaves the shop. Next morning when the barber
goes to open there are a thank you card and a dozen roses waiting
for him at his door.
Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his
bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money;
I'm doing community service this week.”The cop is happy and leaves
the shop. Next morning when the barber goes to open up there are a
thank you card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door. Later
a Republican comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his
bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money
from you; I'm doing community service this week."
The Republican is very happy and leaves the shop. Next morning when
the barber goes to open, there is a thank you card and a dozen
different books such as "How to improve your business and becoming
more successful".
Then a Democrat comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his
bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money
from you; I'm doing community service this week." The Democrat is
very happy and leaves the shop. The next morning when the barber
goes to open up, there are a dozen Democrats lined up waiting for a
free haircut.

SPEAKING ABOUT THE DEMOCRATS
One day, the seven dwarfs left to go work in the mine. Snow White
stayed home to prepare lunch.
When she arrived at the mine with the lunch, she saw that there had
been a terrible cave in. Tearfully, and fearing the worst. Snow
White began calling out, hoping against hope that some of the dwarfs
had survived.
"Hello, hello," she called. "Can anyone hear me? "Hello". For quite
a while there was no answer. Losing hope, Snow White called again,
"Hello...Is anyone down there?"
Just as she was about to give up all hope, there came a faint voice
from deep in the mine. The voice said, "Vote for Hillary. Vote for
Hillary."
Snow White, somewhat relieved screamed out, "Oh, thank God. Dopey is
still alive.

A sharp nose points to curiosity.
A flattened nose indicates too much curiosity.

A preacher was standing at the pulpit giving his Sunday sermon when
a note was passed to him.
The only word written on the sheet was IDIOT.
Looking up at the congregation, the preacher smiled and said: I have
heard of men who write letters and forget to sign their names but
this is the first time I will see a man sign his name and forget to
write the letters.
-------------------
Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly
change things. The people who are starting college this fall across
the nation were born in 1989.
They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.
Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
The CD was introduced two years before they were born.
They have always had an answering machine.
They have always had cable.
Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show.
Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.
They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.
They don't know who Mork was or where he was from.
They never heard: 'Where's the Beef?', 'I'd walk a mile for a
Camel', or 'de plane Boss, de plane'.
McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers.
They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
Do you feel old yet? (Sorry) Pass this on to the other old fogies on
your list. Notice the larger type, that's for those of you who have
trouble reading.

All women should live so long as to be this kind of old lady!
Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, 'How many of
you have forgiven your enemies?'
80% held up their hands.
The Minister then repeated his question.
All responded this time, except one small elderly lady.
'Mrs. Neely?'; 'Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?'
I don't have any.' She replied, smiling sweetly.
'Mrs. Neely, that is very unusual. How old are you?'
'Ninety-eight.' she replied.
'Oh, Mrs. Neely, would you please come down in front & tell us all
how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the
world?'
The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the
congregation, and said:
'I outlived the bitches.'

An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the thing he
predicted yesterday did not happen today.
------------------
Tennessee - The owner of a golf course was confused about paying an
invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical
help. He called her into his office and said, 'You graduated from
the University of Tennessee and I need some help. If I were to give
you $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?' The secretary
thought a moment, and then replied, 'Everything but my earrings.'
Alabama - A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired
off in twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned
alone, staggering under the weight of an eight-point buck. 'Where's
Henry?' the others asked. 'Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a
couple of miles back up the trail,' the successful hunter replied.
'You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?' they
inquired. 'A tough call,' nodded the hunter. 'But I figured no one
is going to steal Henry!'
Louisiana - A senior at LSU was overheard saying... 'When the end of
the world comes, I hope to be in Louisiana .' When asked why, he
replied he'd rather be in Louisiana because everything happens in
Louisiana 20 years later than in the rest of the civilized world.
Mississippi - The young man from Mississippi came running into the
store and said to his buddy, 'Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup
truck from the parking lot!' Bubba replied, 'Did you see who it
was?' The young man answered, 'I couldn't tell, but I got his
license number.'
Georgia - A Georgia State trooper pulled over a pickup on I-75. The
trooper asked, 'Got any I. D. ?' The driver replied, 'Bout whut?'
North Carolina - A man in North Carolina had a flat tire, pulled off
on the side of the road, and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers
in front of the car and one behind it. Then he got back in the car
to wait. A passerby studied the scene as he drove by and was so
curious he turned around and went back. He asked the fellow what the
problem was. The man replied, 'I have a flat tire.' The passerby
asked, 'But what's with the flowers?' The man responded, 'When you
break down they tell you to put flares in the front and flares in
the back. Hey, it don't make sense to me neither.'
And this from South Carolina - 'You can say what you want about the
South, but I ain't never heard of anyone retiring to the north.
-------------------
A guest in a posh hotel comes down to breakfast and called over the
head waiter and read from the menu “I’d like one under cooked egg so
that it’s running, and one over cooked egg that it’s tough and hard
to eat. I’d also like grilled bacon which is a bit on the cold side,
burnt toast, butter straight from the freezer so that it’s
impossible to spread, and a pot of very weak, lukewarm coffee.”
That’s a complicated order sir, said the bewildered waiter.
“It might be quite difficult.” The guest replied sarcastically, “It
can’t be that difficult because that’s exactly what you brought me
yesterday!”

The following is the winning entry from an annual contest held at
Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition of
a contemporary term. This year's term was "Political Correctness."
The winner wrote: "Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by
a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an
unscrupulous mainstream m media, which holds forth the proposition
that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
That about sums it up, doesn't it?

To make it stand, you wet it !
To make it wet, you suck it !
To make it stiff, you lick it !
To get it in, You push it!
Damn !!!!!!!
Threading a needle when you're older is a BITCH!

HE SAID,
'SO WHAT KIND OF CAKE DID YOU BAKE?'
SHE REPLIED, 'HELLOOOOO.., DO YOU SEE 'MARTHA STEWART' WRITTEN ON MY
FOREHEAD? I DON'T THINK SO!'

go to the first aid room when the pains are FIVE MINUTES apart. If
it is false labor, you will have to take an hour's leave without

THE FOURTH MARRIAGE
A woman married three times walked into a bridal shop one day and
told the sales clerk that she was looking for a wedding gown for her
fourth wedding.
"Of course, madam," replied the sales clerk, "exactly what type and
color dress are you looking for?"
The bride to be said, "A long, frilly, white dress with a veil."
The sales clerk hesitated a bit, then said, "Please don't take this
the wrong way, but gowns of that nature are considered more
appropriate for brides who are being married the first time, for
those who are a bit more innocent, if you know what I mean. Perhaps
ivory or sky blue would be nice."
"Well," replied the customer, a little peeved at the clerk's
directness, "I can assure you that a white gown would be quite
appropriate.
"Believe it or not, despite all my marriages, I remain as innocent
as a first-time bride.
"You see, my first husband was so excited about our wedding, he died
as we were checking into our hotel.
"My second husband and I got into such a terrible fight in the limo
on our way to our honeymoon that we had that wedding annulled
immediately and never spoke to each other again."
"What about your third husband?" asked the sales clerk.
"That one was a Democrat," said the woman, "and every night for four
years, he just sat on the edge of the bed and told me how good it
was going to be, but nothing ever happened."

So Bill Gates and the chairman of GM are arguing over which company
is better.
Bill Gates boast, " If cars grew in technology as fast as computers
did, we would be driving v-32 instead of v-8, our cars would get
5000 miles to the gallon, the top speed would be mach seven. Anyway
the sticker price for a car would be 50 dollars."
And which the GM replies, " Sure, but would you really want a car
that crashes 4 times a day!"

Why it's important to understand English......
I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange, so I went to
the currency exchange window at the local bank.

Just one lady in front of me.....an Asian lady who was trying to
exchange yen for dollars and she was a little irritated....
She asked the teller, "Why it change?? Yesterday, I get two hunat
dolla fo yen. Today I get hunat eighty?? Why it change??"
The teller shrugged his shoulders and said "Fluctuations"
The Asian lady says, "Fluc you white people, too!"

Once upon a time, one day long, long ago, there lived a woman who
did not whine, nag or bitch...
But this was a long time ago...
...and it was just one day.

THE JOYS OF GETTING OLD
I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my
doctor's permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I
decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted,
gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But, by the
time I got my leotards on, the class was over.
--- Reporters interviewing a 104-year-old woman: "And what do you
think is the best thing about being 104?" the reporter asked. She
simply replied, "No peer pressure."
--- The nice thing about being senile is you can hide your own
Easter eggs.
--- I've sure gotten old. I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip
replacement, new knees. Fought prostate cancer and diabetes! I'm
half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40
different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to
blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor circulation; hardly
feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92! Have
lost all my friends, But, thank God, I still have my driver's
license.
--- An elderly woman decided to prepare her will and told her
preacher she had two final requests. First, she wanted to be
cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart.
"Wal-Mart?" the preacher exclaimed. "Why Wal-Mart?" "Then I'll be
sure my daughters visit me twice a week."
---My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not
as sharp as it used to be.
--- Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill
out.
---I've still got it, but nobody wants to see it.
---I'm getting into swing dancing. Not on purpose. Some parts of my
body are just prone to swinging.
---It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee
maker.
---These days about half the stuff in my shopping cart says, "For
fast relief."
---Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your
inner child playing with matches.
---Don't let aging get you down. It's too hard to get back up.
---Remember: You don't stop laughing because you grow old, you grow
old because you stop laughing.
---THE SENILITY PRAYER: Grant me the senility to forget the people I
never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
the eyesight to tell the difference.

POOR OLD ALICE
My name is Alice Smith and I was sitting in the waiting room for my
first appointment with a new dentist.
I noticed his DDS diploma, which bore his full name. Suddenly, I
remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name had
been in my high school class some 40-odd years ago. Could he be the
same guy that I had a secret crush on, way back then?
Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This
balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old
to have been my classmate. After he examined my teeth, I asked him
if he had attended Morgan Park High School.
"Yes. Yes, I did. I'm a mustang," he gleamed with pride.
"When did you graduate?" I asked.
He answered, "In 1959. Why do you ask?"
"You were in my class!" I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely. Then, that ugly, old, bald, wrinkled, fat,
gray, decrepit sob asked, "What did you teach?"

Michigan has had the coldest winter in decades.
Water expands to freeze, and at Macinaw City the water in Lake Huron
below the surface ice was supercooled. It expanded to break through
the surface ice and froze into this incredible wave. This wave
phenomena is seen in Antarctica, but in Michigan? Yes, it's been
quite a winter!
