Good Morning, !
Today is Monday, July 23
Tomorrow DearWebby has to go formore injections into
his eyes. That means no Wednesday newsletters. He warned,
maybe not Thursday either ,but he usually sees wll enough by the
second evening after the injections to send off the newsletters.
I find it amazing how the anti-gun fanatics believe the
murders in Colorado could have been prevented through gun
control laws. Idjits!
The nut blew a ton of money on bulletproof gear and guns
and ammo, then killed twelve people. I would say, let's be
glad the nut slowed himself down with guns! If he had done
his homework and built a few bombs from common household
chemicals, and set them off at a political convention or big
church, he could have killed thousands of people.
Millions of people use guns responsibly. Experienced gun
users would never think of using guns, if they contemplated
mass murder. With guns twelve murders seem to be the limit.
Columbine, Fort AHood, Aurora, etc, just to name a few.
So let's be glad the nut was using a fortune in guns and did
not use the cheap stuff under the kitchen sink!
Enjoy!

The wife left a note on the fridge "It's not working,
I can't take it anymore! Gone to stay at my Dad's."
Gary opened the fridge, the light came on and the
beer was cold.
He had no clue what she was talking about!
Now that they are retired, my mother and father are discussing all
aspects of their future.
Dad asked Mom: "What will you do if I die before you do?"
After some thought, she said that she'd probably look for
a house sharing situation with three other single or widowed
women who might be a little younger than herself, since she
is so active for her age.
Then Mom asked Dad, "What will you do if I die first?"
He replied, "Probably the same thing."
And ducked, fast..

Three nuns went to a cucumber stand in an open market
one day. They asked how much the cucumbers were. The
merchant said that they were four for a dollar.
The nuns said agreed to purchase four. The puzzled
merchant asked why they needed four cucumbers when
there were only three of them.
A nun answered back, "Well, we could always eat one.
They are supposedly quite healthy!"
Lucy went to college. However, she really worried her folks because all
she ever wrote home about was boys and good times.
Her mother decided to have a serious talk with Lucy when she
came home for a weekend. The mother started out by saying,
"Now, dear, if you are only going to college to find a husband,
it certainly will be expensive shopping."
"Yes, I know, Mom," said Lucy, "but what a supermarket."

lemon zest in a bowl until glaze is smooth. Brush warm cookies
with glaze and allow cookies to cool completely.

No, the chair that landed on my porch was not the one, that
almost hit DearWebby in Black Diamond. They don't travel
that far. Usually they fly along just a few feet above the
ground and occasionally clear a hedge, but tusually fences
or porch railings stop them just like they were tumbleweeds.
I have not seen tumbleweeds pass me on the highway for a
long time! I guess the herbicides the farmers use made them
extinct.
I used to think they were magical, because they were out and
about on the highway only at night, and even if they were
coming straight at you, they always veered to the side at the
last moment or went over the vehicle and never got crunched.
Enjoy!

Short stuff to get started:
Q. What is the most common pregnancy craving?
A. FOR MEN TO BE PREGNANT.
Who are the three most famous Chinese virgins?
"Tu Yung Tu," "Tu Dum Tu" and "No Yen Tu!"
How did the duffer hit two good balls in a row.
He stepped on a rake.
A young couple was expecting a visit from
the pastor of their church. They wanted
everything to go smoothly, but their two
year old son was just getting the hang of
potty training. He was at the stage where
he would announce at the top of his voice,
"I gotta pee," when he had to go to the
bathroom.
His father, worried that this might be
embarrassing when the minister came
to call, instructed the child, "Don't shout
that you've got to pee. Whisper!" That
evening the pastor makes his visit. He's
there a very long time and the two year
old is on one foot and the other. Finally,
the minister asks him, "What's the matter,
son?"
The child looks at his dad and says, "I've
gotta whisper!"
The pastor says, "It's all right, child.
Whisper in my ear."

A husband and wife decided they needed to use "a code" to
indicate that they wanted to have sex without letting their
children in on it.
They decided on the word "typewriter."
One day the husband told his five year old daughter,
"Go tell your mommy that daddy needs to type a letter."
The child told her Mom what her Dad said and her mother
responded,
"Tell your daddy that he can't type a letter right now because
there's a red ribbon in the typewriter."
The child went back to tell her father what mommy had said.
A few days later the Mom told the daughter, "Tell daddy he
can type that letter now."
The child told her father, and then returned to her mother and
announced....
"Daddy said never mind, his secretary took care of it
at the office."
Lena and Sven got married in St. Paul. They planned to
honeymoon in Lena's aunt's cabin in Duluth. They caught
a bus that was filled with deer hunters. About 30 minutes
out of St. Paul the bus broke down right next to a nice hotel.
Sven said to Lena, "Lena, there's a comfortable hotel right
here. How about consummating our marriage?"
Lena replied, "No. I vant to wait till ve get to Duluth."
The repaired bus took off. Fifty miles down the road,
it broke down again. This time it was next to a good
looking motel.
Sven turned to Lena and asked, "Look Lena. There's
a nice motel. Can ve consummate our marriage?"
Lena said, "No. I vant to wait till ve get to Duluth."
The bus was repaired and off they went. Ten miles
down the road, the bus broke down. This time they
were out in the woods. However, there was a little
clearing out of the sight of the bus.
Lena turned to Sven, "I tink ve should go back into the
voods and do it."
Later when they returned the bus, Sven asked Lena,
"Earlier ve vere next to a nice hotel and you said "No".
Then, ve vere by a motel and you said "No". But, here
ve vent out into the grassy voods, getting bit by the bugs,
and did it. Why?"
Lena said, "I vas listening to the hunters. They said if
the bus broke down again, the fucking season vould
be over."

Good Morning, !
Today is Saturday, July 21
I heard some clattering out on the porch this evening. So I
grabbed my big cast iron frying pan and headed out there,
ready to witness all kinds of bloodshed. A deep dish 12"
cast iron frying pan is a formidable weapon at close quarters,
when you can't swing a bat or point a shotgun.
When I burst out onto the porch, frying pan raised behind me
ready to pound somebody through a knot hole in the floor
boards, the motion detector light came on, and there was the
intruder, up against the railing, just a shaking in the wind:
One new plastic lawn chair, upside down, but otherwise in
good shape.
It tperfectly matched my collection, so I put it onto the stack
in the corner and looped the tie-down chain through it.
It sure had gotten windy all of a sudden!
Enjoy!

A multi-faceted survey at Columbia University School
of Medicine in NYC has so far uncovered two interesting
conclusions.
One study to determine why married women love Chinese
food in the NYC area discovered that the real reason is due
to the belief that there exists some form of mental hypnotic
suggestion at work here after realizing that Won Ton spelled
backwards is: " Not Now."
And a survey recently completed among a carefully selected
representation of male students picked to represent an
accurate cross section of actual racial and ethnic demographic
percentages in the 18 to 30 age bracket has positively
ascertained that 10 percent of the men interviewed prefered
women with thin legs. Another 15 percent preferred muscular
legs. The rest were interested mainly in something in-between.
A female reporter was conducting an interview with a farmer
about Mad Cow Disease. "Mr. Brown, do you have any idea
what might be the cause of the disease?"
"Sure. Do you know the bulls only screw the cows once a year?"
"Umm, sir, that is a new piece of information, but what's the
relationship between this and Mad Cow?"
"And did you know we milk the cows twice a day?"
"Mr. Brown, that's interesting, but, what's the point?"
"Lady, the point is this: if I'm playing with your tits
twice a day, but only screwing you once a year,
wouldn't you get madat me, too?"

A young couple got married and left on their honeymoon.
When they got back the bride immediately called her mother.
"Well," said her mother, "how was the honeymoon?"
"Oh, mama," she replied, "the honeymoon was wonderful! So
romantic... "
Suddenly she burst out crying. "But, mama, as soon as we
returned, Samuel started using the most horrible language.
Things I'd never heard before! I mean, all these awful 4-letter
words! You've got to come get me and take me home...
PLEASE MAMA!"
"Sarah, Sarah," her mother said, "calm down! Tell me, what
could be so awful? WHAT 4-letter words?"
"Please don't make me tell you, mama," wept the daughter,
"I'm so embarrassed-they're just too awful! COME GET ME,
PLEASE !!!
"Darling, baby, you must tell me what has you so upset...
Tell your mother these horrible 4-letter words!"
Still sobbing, the bride said, "Oh, mama...words like: Dust,
Wash, Iron, Cook...."
"I'll pick you up in ten minutes, and we will go see the rabbi"
said the mother.
A guy goes to the big football game, he has great seats on
the 50 yard line, 8 rows up, perfect.
Just before kickoff he hears someone behind him yelling,
"Arnold, we're up here, Arnold!"
He turns around and misses the kickoff! A short while later, just
as the quarterback throws a long bomb, the same guy starts
yelling, "Hey Arnold, we're up here, Arnold!!"
Again he turns around and again he misses the play
This goes on for every big play. He hears the guy shouting,
"Hey Arnold, look up here!" He turns around and misses the play.
Finally, fuming mad, he turns around, pulls out his binoculars
and scans the crowd for the guy doing all the yelling. He
eventually spots him, after missing yet another big play. He runs
up the stands, nearly to the top of the stadium. Pulls the guy
out into the aisle, picks him up by the lapels and shouts,
"Shut-up, my name is Mark, not Arnold!!"

Time to wear a bit of red to show your support for the troops!
Thanks for renewing, Moe!
While checking international news, typical for England,
various unions are trying to use the Olympics to hold their
country for ransom, and get some demands met, that
they would never get through at any other time.
Heathrow is going to be a mess, as usual, when the
unions pick the Christmas travel period for strike or "work
to rule" action.
With England, one has to expect that sort of thing.
Another interesting tidbit from Europe:

A married couple were sitting in a fine restaurant,
the husband kept looking over at a nearby table
where a lady sat in a drunken stupor.
The wife asks "I notice you've been watching
that lady for some time now. Do you know her ?"
"Yes" he replies, "she's my ex-wife, and
has been drinking like that
since I left her seven years ago."
"That's unbelievable" the wife replies, "I wouldn't
think anybody could celebrate that long."
A teacher asked her class, "What do you want out of life?"
A little girl in the back row raised her hand and said, "All I want out
of life is four little animals".
The teacher asked, "Really and what four little animals would
that be?"
The little girl said, "A mink on my back,
a jaguar in the garage,
a tiger in the bed and
a jackass to pay for it all."
The teacher fainted.

Two guys are playing golf. The women in front of them
are really taking their time and are slowing the men
down.
So one man says to his friend, "I'm gonna go ask those
ladies if we can play through." He starts walking
toward them, but about halfway there, he turns around.
When he gets back, his friend asks what happened.
He replies, "One of those women is my wife, and the
other is my mistress. Why don't you go talk to them?"
So the second man starts to walk over. He gets halfway
there and turns around.
When he gets back, his friend asks, "Now what
happened?"
To this he replies, "It's a small world."
A street-wise stunningly beautiful babe walked into a bank
and asked to see the manager about a loan. When seated
in his office, she said,
"Look! Before we get started on this, I heard a story where
a girl borrowed some money and she was unable to pay it
back. The manager of the bank made her sleep with him
for $100 a nite until the loan was paid off.
Could that happen?"
The bank manager smiled, "Well, I've never heard of such
an occurrence, it's not likely..." then he looked her over
again, "but... I guess it's not impossible."
"Good!" smirked the woman, "I'd like to borrow $286,000."
