P.S. It's hilarious really, that here in Britain we have killed off most of our natural meadows full of grass and wild flowers with herbicides and modern farming practices.......and now value them because they are rare!! But we still (some of us) must not have a daisy or dandelion in our lawns.
 
Crazy.

Very funny,
a little sad . . .
it sort of points the finger
at the irony and insanity
of the human race . . .
we are silly little beings, really . . .

everything counts...

    Hi Everyone!
     
     
     
     
    [id=role_document color=#000040 size=4 font="times new roman"] Subject: How to sell a dead horse
    >
    >
    >> Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. The farmer
    >> agreed to deliver it the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and
    >> said, "Sorry son,  but I have some bad news... the horse died."
    >>
    >> Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back."
    >>
    >> The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already. Chuck said,
    >> "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse."
    >>
    >> The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?"
    >>
    >> Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off."
    >>
    >> The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!"
    >>
    >> Chuck said, "Sure I can, watch me.  I just won't tell anybody he's dead."
    >>
    >> A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, "What happened
    >> with that dead horse?"
    >>
    >> Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece

    >> The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?"
    >> Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."
    >>
    >> Chuck grew up and now works for the government. He's the one who figured

    The American Medical Association has weighed in on the new economic stimulus package.
     
    The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised  not to make any rash moves. 
     
    The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.
     
    The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a  misconception. 
     Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.  
     
    Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the Pediatricians said, 'Oh, Grow up!'
     
    The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.
     
    Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.
     
    The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter."
     
    The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
     
    The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.
     
    In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the ***holes in Washington.

    Thank you for the laughs.
    Jude some of those were very funny. thank you
    Diane, i dont know where you found those. but they are absolutly wonderful.  I saved them both.  Chuck in Montana and the AMA weighing in on the stimulus package.  Gotta laugh about it all every now and again.  thank you !!!!
    Buba, loved the 1950s picture of the housewife drinking her speed.
    No need to spend endless hours, days, weeks searching for the rainbow.  Open your heart and your eyes to see and know you are the rainbow you seek.  Rejoyce in the beauty of the co-creation of you.

    Well I am so good at giving advice
     
     
     
    ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. 

    TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. 

    THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want. 

    FOUR. When you say, 'I love you,' mean it. 

    FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye. 

    SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married. 

    SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight. 

    EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much. 

    NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely. 

    TEN.. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling. 

    ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives. 

    TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly. 

    THIRTEEN! .. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?' 

    FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk. 

    FIFTEEN. Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze. 

    SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson. 

    SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions. 

    EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

    NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it. 

    TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice 

    TWENTY- ONE. Spend some time alone.. 

    The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love~and be loved in return♥♥
