Friday Joke

A large woman, wearing a sleeveless sundress, walked into a bar.
She raised her right arm, revealing a huge, hairy armpit as she pointed to all the people sitting at the bar and asked, "What man here will buy a lady a drink?"
The bar went silent as the patrons tried to ignore her. But down at the end of the bar, an owl-eyed drunk slammed his hand down on the counter and bellowed; "Give the ballerina a drink!"
The bartender poured the drink and the woman chugged it down.
She turned to the patrons and again pointed around at all of them, revealing the same hairy armpit, and asked; "What man here will buy a lady a drink?"
Once again, the same little drunk slapped his money down on the bar and said: "Give the ballerina another drink!"
The bartender approached the little drunk and said; "I say, old chap, it's your business if you want to buy the lady a drink, but why do you keep calling her the ballerina?"
The drunk replied; "Any woman who can lift her leg that high has to be a ballerina!"

Spend it wisely

Help America - spend your rebate wisely.

The federal government is sending each and every one of us $300 to $600
rebate. If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China . If we spend it on gasoline it will go to the Arabs. If we purchase a computer it will go to India . If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras , and Guatemala . If we purchase a car it will go to Japan . If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy. The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy beer since this is the only product still produced in the US.

Thank you for your help.


I'll drink to that!!!

Can life get any busier?

We shut the computers down Thursday because of the bad weather. And then on Friday Kanga flew to Dallas to join his step dad to go to a Roger Waters concert. Hope I spelled his name correctly. Anywho... I didn't want to post that Kanga was gone until he was back. Well, he's almost back. His flight lands around 7:30 pm tonight. So this is what I did while he was away. Friday happy hour at O'Dowd's where I was introduced to a nice Stella Artois, with supper at Accurso's (their red pepper cream sauce was a home run) afterwards. Then I had a girlfriend come over for a movie & sleepover.

Side note: After writing about my Accurso's meal I had to stop writing this post to heat up & eat my leftovers. Damn that was good!

Kanga just called from the airport!!!

Back to what I telling you. Girlfriend, Prof J., need a cat fix & Kanga doesn't like for me to be alone when he's gone. J & I both love Johnny Depp. My mother in law had sent me Secret Window. But after the dog is murdered in the movie we both decided it was too scary for us. Especially when I still had to go out on my property to get my dogs out of their pen. So we decided to watch my Netflix choice Must Love Dogs. Loved it! Then I brought the dogs in for the night. Needless to say they were glad to see a visitor. Saturday morning started with baked cinnamon rolls & hot tea. Great weather!!! Then on to Brookside Art Fair. Followed with lunch at La Cucina Di Mamma. I had their pizza Margherita. Wonderful! Prof J had to go grade papers. Ugh! Poor her!I came home & took a nap. Kanga should be home any moment & we still have the rest of the weekend. Hope you're out having fun.
